Gettin’ Scrappy- Friends of Unity April Hop

 

Hello! Welcome to the April Friends of Unity Hop.  Our prompt this month is to use only scraps—Who doesn’t have a boatload of scraps??

My first project is probably the most “pure” all scrap project (and my favorite!) Each piece of paper came right out of my scrap bucket! The Tulip Symphony set is perfect for paper piecing and a great way to add color and patterns while using up those scraps!

The sweet little donkey from Darling Donkey Smiles is the perfect image for the background I created using colorful square scraps.  I used a postage stamp punch to coordinate with my Postage Stamp die card front.


For my final card, I created another colorful background using coordinating scraps.  I finished things off using Windowsill and a modified spotlight technique.

Thank you so much for stopping by! To begin the hop from the start, visit Crystal’s blog here.  Your next stop is Jenni’s blog.  Enjoy!

TTFN, Jane
