Today’s post is a little different. I have a lot of “extra” pieces left from a lot of the cards that I have made. I also have a lot of “extra” backgrounds that I made but changed my mind when I was creating a card. I decided to take some time and create some cards using all of those “extra” pieces.
This post will be a little heavy with photos but not many details on how the cards were made. If I had written down the supplies I had used, I will provide that information under that photo.

Some of the cards look better in real life. I’m not sure what happened when I took the photos. Some of the colors appear to be a little distorted. Because I had so many “extra” pieces, these cards came together quickly. Most of the cards I make, I make specifically for that person, so these will be used in a pinch when needed.
I think I will be using the “extra” pieces when I create them so I don’t have so many stray pieces.
I have been a crafter for many years. Knitting, crocheting, and paper crafting are my passion. I love to make handmade gifts and cards and spread a little cheer.
