I like limits (sometimes, he he he... does that count?) For today's Limited Supplies Challenge, Jen suggests we use up our scraps. Great idea! I can't live without my scraps. I feel so wasteful if I throw them away. So the come in perfectly for cards needed in a hurry. Thanks for the challenge, Jen. You really are a GREAT HOST!
My finished card measures 5 x 5. I used a piece of 5 x 12 Chocolate Chip card stock and scored it at 5" and 2". I folded the 2" panel up and adheared it with Sticky Strip to create my notecard pocket. There are four notecards and envelopes total in the pocket.
I used the Color Spritzer with my Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink markers after stamping my petal images in Chocolate Chip. Then I filled in only the outermost edge of each petal with the brush tip of my marker.
The thread on my buttons is created from a scrap piece of grosgrain ribbon. I cut the outside seam away from the ribbon and used it as my thread.
Here is the inside view so you can see the notecards and pocket area...
