So, I happened across this card in Penny's gallery this morning. loved the shape the packages made, love that they are tied up, love that the sentiment is tied on. ( you know everything) and so, when I started mine I started pushing through the scrap pile for pieces to become packages and I happened across the negative tree cutting. (from last year) no, I dont have hoarding issues. anyways, I thought OK you can make the tree the shape of the tower and move the packages to landscape and so, there are a couple of changes. that sheet music paper was sprayed with something gold and blingy ( probably heidi swapp spray) the dictionary page was really really thin so, it tore the stitching away from it self so, the back side of all the stitching has scotch tape holding it all together.
Penny, I hope you like this and enjoy your week! tfl.

This is wonderful, Stacy! And since most everything I made this week was from leftovers, I may have some craft hoarding issues, lol. I couldn't close the closet door this week...the one that has a lot my craft stuff in it. DH says "you have too much cr*p in there". I'm like, no no, it's fine. But I'll duck when I open it again.

I love it! It's so much fun seeing which card you picked and then see the changes. Hoard away if you keep finding neat stuff to use. Love all the designer papers! TFS!

Fabulous card and it's great that you used up scraps! I love doing that. I have some pretty old pieces, too. It's fun to discover them in the stash and even more fun to make use of them. Love how you used the negative tree cut out and put the darling packages under the tree! Very nicely done. TFS
