Using Bits and Pieces

Many times I will just create backgrounds and I finally organized them in one box and the majority are sorted by color.  I also have a box of images that I have water colored.  I have several other boxes of card making treasures.

Today my boxes came in handy to create a card using the new sketch at  Freshly Made Sketches. 

The bird is a stamp from Dina Wakely which was stamped in black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  The colorful square behind the bird is from a large sheet of paper that caught the excess sprays from previous projects.  I hate to waste inks and sprays so you know why my box is so full - many of the papers are mop up papers (the big background).  The sentiment was white heat embossed on black cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.
