"Hi everyone, Celina, Ms November here with my challenge for this month. On my blog I like to have Waste Not Want Not Wednesdays where I post a card I made out of scraps from my scrap drawer. We all have those pesky little scraps we can't bear to throw away, but they always seem to linger. So my challenge is to create a card using just the scraps you have on hand. It doesn't have to be perfect, in fact I love creating crazy looking cards with little bitty scraps. Bonus kudos if you even stamp on a scrap colored piece of paper instead of a white one!
I really look forward to seeing your creations and don't forget to check the Bombshell blog on November 16th to see what the DT has come up with!"
Like most crafters I have a HUGE folder full of scraps (oops!) so this challenge was perfect for me!!!
OK so here's where all my supplies came from:
Papers: Background is some Tim Holtz Kraft resist I had left over;
The blue star paper is left over October Afternoon;
The Postcard (with the Ship stamped on) is an actual old postcard, aged with Distress Inks;
All the stamped images are stamped onto left over scraps;
The blue ribbon has been floating around my desk for months!
The paper lace was cut for another project weeks ago using Tim Holtz vintage lace die by Sizzix;
The muslin fabric was an off cut;
The Baker's Twine was actually the only thing that wasn't a left over!
Coloured using Spectrum Noir and Copics;
Spellbinder;
Distress Inks.
I LOVED this challenge - it was fun rooting through my scraps folder, I hope you 'll give it a try too!!
Happy crafting!

Really gorgeous card!:)
I cannot tell you how much I adore this card. You...blew mine out of the water...so to speak! :) Seriously stunning and inspirational. I Pinned it! :)
So spiffy somehow it reminds me of an antique scrapbook kept by a whaler or his wife. I know the sailor girl is too modern for that but it is neato.
Fabulous travel card perfect for our challenge at OSAAT this fortnight. Good luck. hugs
