Well that sounds exciting doesn’t it?? A Leftovers Card. It can be good to use those little Leftover bits though.
I was making a card for someone on the weekend. It just wasn’t working for them I thought. I put that idea aside and pulled out some “leftover” bits to get a card together for my card stash. (I will get back to the special card later). So, this card came together with mostly “leftovers”.
I had a large flower and the edging and also a leaf from a previous project that I didn’t use. I just diecut some extra leaves and added it to the flower. I added some ink to highlight the flower. These were with the Pretty Florals Dies.
I had a piece of white card with a sentiment stamped already so cut it down to fit. This sentiment is from the Notes and Totes Bundle. I already had the embossed white with the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder so I added strips on each side of the paper.
Here is the card.
So leftovers can be handy sometimes so pull them out and have fun creating with them.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

Recently I posted our Week 11 project for 12 Weeks of Christmas – and I just realized Week 10 project was still sitting in the Drafts Folder! SO you all missed out. So sorry. So we might be out of order but here is our Week 10 project. Be ready for our last project later this week.
Week 10 of our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series. This week’s card uses a fun technique to add extra detail. It’s the Partial Inked, Embossed Technique.
This is the card.
I have used the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder. The technique is inking part of the Embossing Folder and embossing the card. You can follow along in the video below.
The paper strip is from the A little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper. The Holly is from the Reindeer Fun Dies and the sentiment from the Reindeer Fun Stamp Set.
We are coming to the end of the Christmas series. Hope they have inspired you. Check back on my blog for the past ones if you missed them.
Happy Christmas Crafting,
Jenny

It’s not the right season for us right now in the South Pacific. Here we are in Spring. And we don’t make cards for Autumn when it is here anyway. But I noticed there were some hidden gems in the All About Autumn Suite that we can certainly use so it was worth checking it out.
Such as –
The Stamped leaves or diecuts can create great Masculine projects or even for Sympathy cards as well.
The papers have photographic prints on one side with texture prints on the other side great for Masculine cards too.
And the embellishments and the Embossing Folder are certainly great for any occasion cards.
They all can be suitable for our Papercrafting here in the South Pacific.
Let’s check out the whole Suite.
The All About Autumn Suite includes:
Autumn Leaves Bundle with the Stamp Set and Dies
All About Autumn 6″x6″ (15.2cm x 15.2cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper
Oxidized Copper 12″x12″ (30.5cm x 30.5cm) Specialty Designer Series Paper
Check out the background effect in the card further below. It adds such a cool addition to your projects with the “dotted” background.
The All About Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper
It consists of 48 sheets of patterned paper: 4 each of 12 double-sided designs 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm). The prints are really great just to use on there own. The reverse side provides the look of texture to your projects.
The colours include: Cajun Craze, Copper Clay, copper foil, Early Espresso, Moody Mauve, Mossy Meadow, Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Very Vanilla.
The Oxidised Copper Specialty Paper.
This pack consists of 4 sheets of Specialty Paper. 2 each of 2 designs in 12″x12″ (30.5cm x 30.5cm).
One page features distressed copper imaging while the other is inspired by oxidized copper. The colours used in this paper are Copper and Pretty Peacock.
Use the paper to create textured coppery leaves or use them as a backing for a thoughtful sentiment. You can use this paper not only for Autumn projects but for any other cards to add that extra lushness.
We can’t go past the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. Add that extra texture to any project to give a distressed vintage or chic look.
Now for some cards.
See the embossing on the front of these leaves with the Embossing Folder.
Some of the beautiful paper is used as a card base.
This card shows the “dotty” background.
Pumpkins and Autumn leaves on this card but this really shows the paper. There is the added leaves with the Oxidised Paper too.
A little texture from the paper and the shine from the Oxidized paper.
Another card shows off the texture from the Embossing Folder and the shine from the Oxidized Paper. Also another crisp photo image from the paper.
So there is much to admire in this suite and even useful for those Papercrafters in the South Pacific.
