Do you see art in things that others would consider to be trash? I absolutely do. I have always held on to my tiny scraps of card stock and designer series paper, including the “negative” pieces from punches and die cuts – you just never know when the need for that perfect size or shape will come around.
If you have been following my posts for the last few days, then you know I have been using the Daisy Delight bundle. When I was punching my daisies for yesterday’s project combo, I fished out scraps of card stock from my Very Vanilla stash and most of the pieces were squares perfectly sized to fit nicely into the punch. I set the negative pieces aside and they caught my attention when I was mentally creating my next card design.
I cut a piece of Delightful Daisy designer series paper slightly smaller than the Very Vanilla negative piece and attached them together with dimensionals. I created the border of designer series paper by weaving 1/2″ strips of the same designer series paper (flipped to the opposite side for contrast). The daisy block is attached to the front of the card with more dimensionals. The most time consuming part of this card was the weaving; otherwise, this was a quick and simple card.
