While cutting all of my bookmarks down to size, I was left with all of these little "bricks" of cardstock. They were too large in scale for a card project, so I cut each one into 4 equal peices. Now they were the perfect size!
I inked each brick with brown Colorbox ink and adhered them in a staggered pattern. I loved the look of the aged brick, so I added some moss growing between some of the bricks with my copics.
I punched and layered about twenty of these holly leaves. I used two different sized circle punches to create the wreath "form" that I glued all of the leaves to. Added a little bit of Prisma glitter for sparkle!
Have a great weekend. We are going to my cousin's annual Halloween party tonight. My mom and I made some really cute cupcakes to bring to the party. I'll try to get some good pictures to post.

ReplyDeleteThis is so cool, Kara! That's so smart to turn the scraps into bricks! Great card!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a card! I love your "bricks" and wreath!
ReplyDeleteHow clever is this?? I love it, and adore the glitter accent!
ReplyDeleteI just love this, I usually throw out my small bits and pieces and now I may have to keep them. This is what I get for cruising the net in the wee hours of the morning, great inspiration
