Oldie Moldie Monday and Basic Grey



Today is Oldie Moldie Monday - time to show some love for some older paper in your supplies.  I have had this Basic Grey 6 x 6 pad since it came out (I need to have all of them) and I don't think I have used it at all.  I wanted to make a thank you card for my aunt. 

The card started out as the sketch from Clean and Simple Stamping - of course - I took a turn - hopefully it was a good turn.  CAS-usal Fridays is to do some paper piecing.  I pieced the flowers and then also pieced the center of the flowers.  Since the card was not for Operation Write Home I used some Stickles (no glitter on OWH cards - we put our soldiers lives in danger).

Moda Fabrics makes this same paper line in fabric - I saw it today on their blog - so pretty.  My first love was fabric and sewing.

Dig into your supplies and make a card (cards) out of your older supplies.
