use your scraps!

I'm on the Ranger blog today, 

sharing how to turn your scraps 

into adorable custom embellishments...

it's easy...

it's super quick...

it's fun...

and...

I KNOW that
you already have some scraps...

they can be manila cardstock scraps 
(maybe the back of an ugly tag)
or

scraps of magic mat board...
like the left overs after die cutting 
larger shapes...
like this tea cup & saucer...

I LOVE this tea time die so much!

it's PERFECT for 

the faux graniteware technique...

just grab a few scraps...

then, grab your archival ink...

some embossing powder and

with a few simple steps, 

you can put those scraps to good use!

here's a few peeks at 
how I used my scraps...

see that adorable bird?

I used violet archival ink and

 the violet embossing powder...

and a new tim/Sizzix punch...

I LOVE the 

embossed red geranium heart...

it's another scrap 

that was rescued from the trash...

you'll find the scoop on how to create 

the bird and 

the tiny embossed heart on

the Ranger blog...

just click the link...

and come visit...

I hope you'll be inspired to

 grab your scraps and...

make art!
