Here's what I came up with:
I must admit here, that sometimes using scraps can be a real challenge for me! I'm not completely satisfied with this card but it's about using those pieces of paper, cardstock, cut images, ribbon, etc. that are just being stored in a bin. And that part I'm happy with!
These pieces cut from Elegant Edges cartridge were all in my scrap bin. I have no idea the size!
I put them together and it fit a sentiment perfectly I really wanted to use and then I proceeded to force it to work for a card.
That was my first problem!!
Recipe:
Card Base: SU Crumb Cake (formerly Kraft) 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" (folded)
Card front: SU Apricot Appeal 4 1/8" X 5 3/8", DCWV the Fall Stack 4" X 5 1/4"
Other Cardstock / Paper: Garden Green

Wonderful variety of DT creations. Like the embossing & arrangement of each & everyone. I used all scraps in my card creation except for the pattern paper. Cloudy & rainy here in Central TX.
