More stuff used up.

I had my last stamp club last night so now I can share some of the projects that my great ladies got to make this month.  The first one is made with the Reason for the Season bundle on page 31 in the Holiday mini.  I wasn't sure that I even liked this one much less wanted to deal with the punch.  I went ahead and got it after I saw some of the fun things done with it.  Now I love it.  It looks a lot more complicated than it was.  Isn't it so pretty?
I have more ideas for other things that I want to make with it so I'll share more as I get them made.

As I mentioned, I am working to use up lots of the paper and accessories that I have collected for the past twenty years.  Today I made four "star" cards using up some big star brads that I have had for several years.  The set is perfect for this Be the Star card that features Pacific Point cardstock with some retired silver and white designer paper.  It has the tiny silver brads and Metallics Sequin Assortment.

The second card that I made used up some scraps of a very old paper that is perfect for man cards. I used the Wilderness Waits set on page 86 of the big annual catalog and the saying from the Sprinkles on Top set on page 7.  If you would like to see or purchase these cards, come to the Smart Start bazaar on November 21 at the Free Methodist Church on Ocean Beach hiway.  I'll have lots of cards and gift items and you'll have a chance to create your own cards too.

I'm really having fun coming up with simple cards from lots of old craft stuff.  As many of you know I am artistically challenged, but this kind of creating feels so good and is such good therapy for the onset of the dark season.  Hugs, Sherron
