How has your week been? I've had a challenging week, basically there aren't enough hours in a day and I'm learning I have to let go and do what I can. So long as my deadlines are met of course! I have a man down today - always sad when they're not bouncing around but hopefully he'll be better after some rest over the weekend.
The Daring Cardmakers are encouraging us to use up scraps this week with their latest challenge. I always end up with lots of scraps when I craft and this happens more at my demos so I'm showing you one way I use them up!
Scraps are perfect for making impossible cards as you need smaller pieces that you wouldn't normally use on other cards and they don't have to be the same design either.
I have used the Paper Addicts Magical Stories paper pad for my impossible card and added some Dovecraft Washi Tape, a mini glitter envelope and a Merry Chrismas die. I've kept it simple so the papers are highlighted on the card.
Speaking of Trimcraft Christmas Demos, I am at The Range in Stevenage this Sunday and St Albans next week. The impossible card in various sizes has been going down very well so far with both new and advanced crafters alike.
You can find a lot of examples using scraps by my fellow DT members HERE and I hope you'll join in with this challenge and use up your scraps!
See you again tomorrow!
