Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
It’s my turn to host the Free 4 All Friday Challenge this week.
The Challenge is “What A Load Of Scrap!”
My challenge to you is to take some of those paper scraps from other projects and create an interesting background for you card by arranging the bits and pieces.
If you are a neat crafter (you know who you are!) you have some scraps tucked away neatly in a folder somewhere.
If you are like me look on the floor, under that big pile of (insert a number of things here)on your desk or even down the hall in the other room - because you know how those scraps with a little adhesive on them seem to travel all over the house.
Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

Cool challenge Jeanne, I'll have to look through my file folders of papers that are filed in alphabetical order, to see what I can find!
Here is my card for the challenge. Most of it was found on my table, how embarrassing. Here's a pic of my table tonight.

Reason: add a link to my card
Fun challenge, Jeanne....and shows us what we can do with all those scraps, experiments tossed aside, and just bits & pieces. My large scrap started as an experiment that I discarded. Love these "voila" challenges! : ) Thanks!

Ha ha! Looks a lot like my table!
My scraps actually are organized ... somewhat. I have two boxes with folders for colors (red cardstock, red dp; blue cs, blue dp; etc.) Then I have two boxes for the card design team just divided into large cardstock or dp scraps. Then two small boxes for the tiny cs / dp scraps. Plus I have lots of little boxes or drawers filled with small pieces like: birds, butterflies, etc., etc. I still have a hard time finding just the right little scrap when I want it.

Ok, here is the story. I LOVED this challenge! Loved it so much I made a boatload of cards for it. Then my dh took me to dinner and I thought I would comment and upload when I got home. A horrible storm hit with straight line winds and we came home to no power. Didn't have any power for 4 days. It came back on yesterday evening just in time for my son's bday. So, today I am uploading, commenting and doing laundry like you wouldn't believe.
