To You from Me (a spare parts project)

Happy Monday, friends!  This card was so easy I couldn’t not make it.  You see, it was crafted entirely of spare parts that were strewn across my stamp table after the bomb went off during my stamping escapade last week.  Well. . . it looked like a bomb went off.   And since it uses so many dies from the Dies R Us store I decided to use it for my post today.  I hope you enjoy!

The Impression Obsession Tiny Flowers and Impression Obsession Leaf Cluster leaves were left over from last week’s project, and since the Impression Obsession Rectangle 6-in-1 Frames cuts all six frames at once I had plenty of those left from yet another project.  I had a few extra of the Die-namites Beautiful Bow cut and tucked into a baggie, so I layered two of them together, topped it off with the cute little posy, and slathered the bow with glitter.

I had been working with the Penny Black To You stamp set and the sentiment fit perfectly onto a Sizzix Fancy Tag which was already cut.  And, gee, the embossed card base just happened to be laying around, too, rejected for another project.  All the parts have the same sort of spirit to them, if you know what I mean, so it just fell together.  It sure doesn't hurt to have spare parts, does it?


Don’t forget to check the Challenge Blog.  It’s a Back to School theme. Use a die and link up your creation.  And do think of Dies R Us next time you feel like die shopping.  They’ve got more great stuff than you can shake a stick at!  See you again soon!
