Papertrey Ink Blog Hop - December 2011


Your challenge is to use some type of leftover materials to create a project. And if you really want to challenge yourself even further, you can try to create a non-holiday card from your leftovers.

I made quite a few gift bags using the edgers #3 die, so I had some leftovers from those. I then cut out the crown image from one of our Christmas cards to use on my project.

  16. Hi, Lee! Love how you made the gift bag without the use of the Front & Center die... very inventive! Of course, I would never have thought of that so I had to buy the die. :) Thanks for your faithful visits to my blog!
