~~~ Sweet Stampin ...use those scraps ~~~

Hi folks,
Hope all is well.

Today starts a new challenge at

Sweet Stampin Challenge

where we have a great theme for you..."Use those Scraps"

I know I'm not alone in saying I have a few bags of scraps.
There is a lot of white so this is what I've used mostly on my card.
The polka dot paper was just the right size to put on the top.

The sentiment is a stamp from Simon Says Stamp
The star of the day is that little pre-coloured gnome available at Sublimation Designs
Thank you Diane for sharing this great site.


Thank  you so much for  stopping by today.
I hope you get a chance to stop by the blog and be inspired by my talented team mates.

hugs,
Pat K xx
