Never Waste a Scrap!

Papercrafters can never waste scraps, can we? I bet most of us have a tray or box full of odd scraps of paper that just might come in useful one day! I made this card and cut out a frame for the cute Lili of the Valley image  of a girl trying on her hat, from grape coloured card
The Nellie Snellen die left such a pretty shape on the left over card that I just had to use that to as a border, so whipped up this Thank You card to use it up, it was also a chance to use the new freebie stamp from Cardmaking Magazine!

  11. Very pretty cards. I particularly like that lacy punched border on the first card, and the negative border on the second. The colour matching is fab.
