White Scraps

I finally decided enough was enough with the bulging folder of white scraps of cardstock, which even though I was delving into and using for sentiments/ 3D stacking  just wasn't getting any smaller.  So they all came out along with my embossing folders/die cut frames and regardless of the sizes of the papers they were all put to use until none were left.

Here are the results.

I didn't worry if the paper fitted all of the embossing folder or not, in fact only using parts of the folders worked well in some cases. 

Once I had gone through my stash of embossing folders I turned my attention to stacking die cut frames and as you can see below soon filled a tray up with them.  This still left me with small strips so they were used up on die cut sentiments  and stamped sentiments.  The most time consuming part was writing on the back of each piece  the name /maker of each one. 

Miss  Mojo now has no excuse  in telling me she hasn't a clue what to make

Here is the 1st card using part of an embossing folder  and a die cut frame .

I cut a base card 5.75 x 5.75 inches and used a design paper from a paper pad by  The Works to cover.

The  patterned paper was already cut in two strips ( pre- edged using  a Martha  Stewart Punch) and laying in my stash still  unused from a previous project. The part embossed folder is by Sizzix  "Scallop Lace Doily" and matched perfectly with the punch design.  The embossed card /scallop die and sentiment were all different shades of white (which would have shown up ) but I got round that by using my Pearlescent Chalks to colour the flowers on the embossed piece,the scallop die and the sentiment strip in a matching blue to to pull them all in together with the design paper.  The scallop die is by The Works, Design paper DoCrafts Papermania "Chatsworth Collection" linen texture. The flower stamp and sentiment were freebies from a magazine. I used Wow Embossing powder "Polished Silver" and a silver gel pen to highlight the dots and lace doily edging of the embossed card.  Card came together quickly because I had all the elements to hand  ready to go in the boxes instead of having to spend time searching each piece out with no clear idea in my head of what to make.
