Neglected Stuff

 Hello friends!

Today I have a project to share that was created for our newest
NEGLECTED STUFF CHALLENGE

Click on the link then come join in the fun!
 
 
 Card #1



I started this card by using an old scrap of designer paper (no clue what paper pack it's from ... was in the scrap bin) the using a scrap of white card stock cut to size, I embossed using an older Sizzix embossing folder.   Next I created my iris stems in the center of the oval and lastly added some Nuvo crystal drops.

The 'neglected stuff' I've used today is a VERY OLD pack of Sticko Iris Vellum Stickers and created two cards.   I believe I bought this sheet of stickers years ago at either Hobby Lobby or Archiver's.
 
 

 
Card #2


The stickers you see on these two cards are what was left on the sheet of stickers.  I  had obviously used some of the stickers on either a card or scrapbook page years ago and these were what was left.  So, for my 2nd card I used the last 2 iris blooms and some of the greenery that was left and created this focus panel.   I had a long and a short scrap of this purple card stock in my colored scraps pile of which I had intended to 'partially' mat my focus panel then created a punched border for the bottom.  
 
WELL ... without thinking, I cut my second panel for a vertical card vs horizontal card and it was too short for what I had in mind to do.  SO ... shifting gears ... I came up with this design.  SIMPLE but EFFECTIVE I think!
 
 Be sure to pop over and check us out then play along!

If you're a crafter, I'm sure you have some 'Neglected' goodies in your stash
that are just waiting to be loved!

You  have until the 28th to play along!

Thanks for taking the time to stop by today!

As always . . .

  2. You would never know either of these were stickers -- so beautiful! The Sizzix EF on your first card is still one of my favorite folders, and the design of your second card looks meant to be. From goof to gorgeous!
