HCE03 - Pulling out the Scraps
Happy Monday!!!
Only 3 more sleeps  I hope everyone's ready!
If you don't have *quite* all your holiday cards or tags finished, here's a great challenge for you.
I stumbled across "Scrap-Lings" for the first time this past week.
These little cuties measure 1.25 x 4.25 and are made from the cut off strip leftover from turning a 4.25 x 5.5 card into a 4.25 square card.
They are PERFECT for attaching to a gift or tucking in a small space for someone to find.
So my challenge to you for today is to get out your scrap box and make a Scrap-ling!
I only have three requirements: - Your card MUST measure 1.25 x 4.25
- Your card MUST be themed around a December holiday.
- You MUST include stamping somewhere on your card.
Please use the keyword HCE03 when you upload your card into the gallery. Then we can see all of your CUTE little Scrap-lings in one place
Can't wait to see what you make!
Here are two that I made. If you search Scrapling in the gallery, you'll find other samples too.
A Merry Little Christmas
Three Tiny Trees
EDITED TO ADD: the gallery link

I am SO all over this!!! I LOVE tiny things - I cannot believe I've never even heard of these - BRILLIANT! Thanks for a fabulous, fun challenge! Unfortunately, I have to be a responsible little drone this morning, so my enthusiasm has to be put on hold until later in the day...

I have to do it - just because it sounds so silly. Maybe some RESEARCH will help my pea brain.

How fun was this -- and what a clever way to use up those long skinny scraps. Here's mine -- Scrapling Gifts.

Here's my submission for this challenge --
Joy to the World
Can you believe these are Wal-Mart stamps?! I uploaded another picture for this challenge too if you'd like to take a look. Yesterday's birdhouse is next to it.

combined 2 challenges
I think mine is a tad wider but I had to fit the gift on it! I am making these today for stocking stuffers! Thanks for the idea as I had the calendars but had no idea what to do with them. Also-the second "cheater" I did the faux silk technique too! Two birds - you know!
here it is
