Creating Great Cards with Leftovers

Have you ever found yourself with leftover supplies after a Stack-A-Stamp workshop and wondered what to do with them. This is just the predicament I found myself in.  I have a Valentine workshop coming up so it was easy to design cards using the leftover Real Red and Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  I found that the Crumb Cake cardstock looked great with the SAB Everyday Enchantment DSP.

Today I combined Beau Chateau DSP with leftover Marina Mist cardstock and a scallop square to make a birthday card for my Birthday Stack-A-Stamp coming up in March.



This card was so easy to make and shows off the Beau Chateau DSP so well. I will definitely be using this layout in the future.

Supplies used: Elementary Elegance Stamp Set (Sale-a-bration W 125120, C 125122), Marina Mist Cardstock (119682), Crumb Cake Cardstock (120953), Very Vanilla Cardstock (101650), Marina Mist Classic Ink (119668) Crumb Cake Classic Ink (121030), Beau Chateau DSP (122357), Basic Pearls (119247), 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon - Marina Mist (119257), Curly Label Punch (119851), Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309), Beautiful Wings Embosslits (118138),Scallop Square Duo Bigz Die (120903), Stampin' Dimensionals (104430)
