Last weekend, my family worked together to make my DD's wedding invitations. I had to leave before the end of the project and while I was gone, they spilled cream soda onto part of the pile of cards. We all have said that it was a good thing I wasn't there!Thank goodness we had printed some extras so it wasn't such a big deal to lose a few.
Anyway....I couldn't just toss those cards especially when I saw how pretty the Medallion image looked with the purple ink running on it. So, I punched the tiny flowers and made a strip with them mounting them on Wisteria Wonder. I was working on preparing a card for the CAS challenge which is to use twine so I then added strips of twine framing on either side and added a twine bow (I found a big roll of kite twine at Walgreen's in the summer clearance for only 29cents!) I then stamped my verse. I went to mount my card and realized my Wisteria panel was an odd size, so I added a strip of Eggplant scallops to the edge and my leftovers rescue was complete!

Very pretty card Gail. I would have just died to have that happen.... I wouldn't want to be there either.... But love the positive attitude you took and reused your homemade dp for your flowers...... Gotta love that.... love the double lines of twine too, and congrats on the great deal.... love those too.TFS
