Fun Technique Challenge! I'm all for using scraps & most of my cards have at least some scraps on them. I seem to be physically incapable of throwing stuff out.
So my card is made mostly w/ scraps..the deckled vanilla panel I stamped the image on is a leftover and was barely big enough. The layer behind it is a paint chip which I guess counts as a scrap. The other vanilla layer and the dk red layer were both the size you see so technically, they are not much more than scraps. For the loops, I put a couple of loose loops in this piece of leftover twine. The image was colored w/ Copics. I pierced two of the layers and distressed the edges of the dk red layer. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! I'll have it on my blog in just a sec: The Write Stuff
