...i have been "playing" when i should be working, usually!
this "little thing" is no exception. the other night, when i had finished the card that became one half of my mother's day card production for this year, i started playing around with the leftover bits of cardstock and paper & chipboard... (and--quite unconsciously--with heidi's sketch!!! see--i told you this was one we'd all be using again and again!) ...i made a scrapling. sort of. i don't think it's exactly the right size. but it's close. and it's the right shape. i'm callin' it a scrapling. scrapling purists, feel free to boycott m'blog. i shall understand. :)

ReplyDeleteI discovered your blog a few weeks ago & have been loving it ever since. I love the scrapling card it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI am the Queen of Using Scraps, and I hereby dub this card a "Scrapling of the Highest Order".
ReplyDeleteIt amazes me how some of the best cards come from scraps and bits and bobs. Your lovely card is no exception, of course!
Since I have no idea What the actual size of a scrapling should be I find this one to be perfectly perfect! Love the fab mix of papers and your blinged out butterfly! Gorgeous!
