Sometime ago I got given a
Fancypants Designs - Country Boutique collection kit. A beautiful kit but very feminine, scrapping mainly boys I only used a sheet or two at the time and then let it sit. Over the weekend I began sorting photos and cleaning out some of my stash and I came across the kit again.
I decision to not put it away again, to use it all up! Looking through my photos I didnt really have any suitable for these papers so after some shuffling around decided to make some cards. Gathered together card bases and some other bits and pieces and set to work with designs.
The collection was so easy to work with and everything matched perfectly. I think I only added a couple of things that werent in the kit just as some embellishment to finish of.
I ended up with 6 cards that will be great for weddings or engagements or special occaisions. I probably could of made a few more if I got a little more creative as I only had papers left and no die cuts, I may even still do this at a later time.
The papers that I did have leftover are a little less feminine and could be used in layouts for my boys too, so have put them aside.
Pretty happy with my efforts for the weekend, not being such a creative cardmaker and happy to have used up some older stash!
Do you make your own cards ? Where do you get inspiration from? I can use all the help I can get :)
Thanks for stopping by
Lis :)
