We're still celebrating Holiday Leftovers at Jingle Belles, by which we mean all of those bits and bobs you saved because they didn't work at the time, but they had so much future potential that you kept them. Because we KNOW we're not the only crafters who do this, lol!
Here's my "plate" filled with Holiday Leftovers this week:
When Ranger's new Make-It Holiday Stamps and Stencils came out, I made a bunch of different backgrounds with the Peppermints Stencil before choosing one for a tutorial. Of course I saved the "variations" including this one, in which all the peppermints are pink and red. In the meantime, I grabbed an pink embossed mat that turned out to be the wrong color for the Paper Anthology Ice Ice Baby Holiday jumpstart Kit and also a blue gel print from probably three years ago which had both pretty snowflakes and some big smudgy voids which I'm a little embarrassed that I saved... but in my defense it's perfect for matting. I thought I might be able to use up my open pack of (now sold out) Eyelet Outlet Peppermint Candy Brads; and also the last four or five stickers on the ancient Echo Park sticker sheet this sentiment came from, but neither of those quite happened, so in fact, I now have leftovers from my leftovers card, lol! :)
JB2623: Holiday Leftovers runs until next Wednesday evening, November 18th. Link your cards on the original post at Jingle Belles.
