Making Cards with Scraps

Hi everyone
Today I made a card for the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge. You can see that blog HERE  The challenge is to use your scraps. DO I HAVE SCRAPS. I must say that I heard one great tip. I think it was from Karen, one of the design team. Cut your dsp or at least some of it mat size. The usual size you use. It is easier to store and you will grab it more often. Most of my dsp mats are 5x3 3/4 so I am definitly going to cut some of my paper. I love the way the card came out. What do you think?

    Donna, I love this! I love the intricate frame, the weaved ribbon, the doily, and the flowers. These elements add such a lovely touch. Thanks for joining us at Whimsical Wednesdays! Melanie

    This is SO beautiful! The yellow is stunning... so naturally bright and cheery. I love ribbon (perhaps a bit too much), so I was pretty excited when I saw this ribbon weaving. I can't get enough of it! It's beautiful and ties in perfectly to this lovely creation. So many intricate, gorgeous touches. Thank you so much for playing along with us at Whimsical Wednesdays! I'm happy to be your newest follower. :o)

    Hugs and blessings!
