Is it wishful thinking or is my pile of scraps getting significantly smaller?



Hello card

Hello friends! Here's a card made from my pile of scraps! Love that the pile is getting significantly smaller...or it could just be wishful thinking on my part? *LOL*


The whole piece came together when I found this already embossed soda can panel in my stash....a leftover from a previous project. Interestingly enough, the moustached monster was also already texturized with crackle paint in rock candy....so I just had to fussy cut and prop him up on 3D dots. He had 2 eyes but I thought a bigger single googly eye would be much cuter. ;)

Gotta love it when a piece comes together from previous "hard" work...*LOL*

I used the sketch at CPS and am entering it for the Moxie Fab World's household items challenge.

Supplies: Making Memories and Sassafras patterned papers, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Ranger Crackle Paint in rock candy, EAD Designs sentiment sticker, ribbon, googly eye, staples, adhesive.


P/s: Come play along with my guest Michelle's neon challenge!

    How clever is that soda can panel? Love that! And the one-eyed googly monster is sadly quite adorable & not scary at all. Wait, that doesn't make me SAD, that makes me HAPPY ;) Love it!
