The next challenge in the group was to use your scraps, I have so many paper scraps it is just crazy, I am so tempted to just recycle them and start with a brand new empty scraps container but I haven't done it yet. I saw on Pinterest these flowers made from scraps and the petals were two layers thick, so I went ahead and stamped out all these wings from an old butterfly stamp set and hand cut them out, I started arranging them to see how many I would need and found that I didn't like how it looked doubling them so I went with just one layer around, that gave me enough to make two cards.
To match the faux stitching on the petals I did a little bit of that around my paper and added a few pen dots to the background.

For the second one I used an Epoxy sticker for my sentiment and added tiny sequins to the background
I have the next challenge almost done, so I will share that next time.
Hope you all have a wonderful and creative weekend!

So cute, Connie! At first, I though they were feathers but then realized they are petals. Great job using your scraps!

You certainly did a great job using your scraps … lovely.

Look at everything I missed. Last night I was wondering why no posts from you. You tend to fall into my spam, like I fall into yours. Weird, eh?
This is a very cute flower. Lots of hard work
