More for KW 18 – scraps of ideas

This is a super quick post as it's waaaay after my bedtime but I've been playing with my scraps & other bits that I discarded on the way to this card card & they've ended up as these simple cards.I bowed to include some white in the 2nd one & I think it's my favourite. I do llike the challenge colours on white more than black.Anyway I'm definitely off to bed now. Nightie night...or good morning.
Edited: 11 am. - I'm awake & using more scraps.
Just wanted to show you what I did this morning with the rest of my scraps...that were still all over the dining table this morning. I love making these bookmarks. They don't technically fit the challenge,as there's no black, but just imagine there's now some black & white gingham ribbon on them! Anyway, must dash & clean up the dining room & spare room/craft room before Damo's parents arrive later today! Have a great weekend everyone.

I love what you came up with! Both cards are So Cute! I love the flowers down the side on the first one, and I love that the flower hangs over the edge on the second one, but you don't know it till you open it! Too Cute!

Hi Dianne,

I did make the paperclips, it was fun, something different. I like your colours more, but I was still happy with the end result.
