You Are Beautiful - Clean & Simple

I don't make a lot of Clean and Simple cards, but sometimes I find a little scrap of pattern paper that makes Clean and Simple the perfect idea.  These were just a simple die cut panel, with a window and a bit of stamping. This is a great way to use those designer papers we've been hanging onto.

MTF Rainbow Cards

I just love how these cards turned out.  I made them as a set for a silent auction donation a few weeks ago.  Nothing fancy here, just some scrap busting with the die cut rainbow and a little stamping to create some fun cards.

Using Older Pattern Paper - Happy Birthday

I'm back digging through my older pattern paper stash.  This paper was kind of on target with the current plaid trend so the only thing I did was trim the panels to fit my card base.  I added a sentiment layered on die cuts with foam tape and that was it.

Glad Tidings - Stash Busting Card Idea

In case you didn't notice the theme of this weeks post is falling into the category of stash busting.  I was a little sad to use up this mirrored snowflake cardstock, but it's better as cards than taking up space in my stash.  There's a tiny bit of inking on the edges of the blue circles to go with all the die cutting.  The cardstock is the show stopper in this card.
