Enfys over at Going Buggy has a cool March challenge this month - use something on your card that wasn't intended for cardmaking. I was really jazzed by this. It reminded me of when I first started scrapping and didn't want to pay so much money for all the fancy embellishments [ I'm still reluctant :-) ] so I would try to be "creative" with what I used as embellishments (not always successfully).
So as it is a rainy cold day here in the Dallas area, I jumped right in and found three objects:
1. Red mesh bag from a bag of cheese snakcs - used for the "rosette"
2. Washers - used on the ribbon and in the center of the rosette
3. Black plastic screw hole cover from a flat pack shelving unit - used insode the washer in the center of the rosette
The papers are from a ColorBok paper pack; the cardstock is Bazzill Ruby Slipper, the very center of the rosette is Stickles silver glitter glue, and the ribbons are from Hobby Lobby.
Enjoy!
Just popped in from Enfys' blog and have to tell you this is just lovely. Very creative and I love the color combo.
