Using leftovers



A while back I made this card for one of MFT's color challenges (although I had to make another card since I managed to not actually use one of the colors...).

I was attempting to do some cleaning up the other day (which is actually quite shocking in and of itself) and ran across the leftovers from that card and thought I would just throw together another card (truthfully I could probably get even one more card out of the scraps, but I digress).

I used the Limelight frame and randomly inlaid pieces into the card.



Another of the extra white pieces was used to anchor the die cut sentiment and for the secondary sentiment.  I stamped a few stars directly onto the inlaid piece as accents.

Super quick and easy and a great way to end the week.

Have a great Friday and weekend!
