...Toni, Your Ways to Use it today makes me feel so good...NOT. I will not wrangle in my scraps as the illustrious Sandy Allnock pleads in her ! If you have NEVER watched this hilarious video, you really should. I wrangled up beloved Memory Box scraps to construct this card today.
This card was based on cathymac's Sketch Challenge from this week. Thanks Cathy, this was a most interesting layout!
I oops, again! And missed a sweet friends birthday. Well, the long retired Stampin' Up Birthday Banter set had just the answer with this adorable wrabbit and pun. That fluffy bunny tail was puffed up with the fun flock. The one candle was stickled 'cause we can't ever get enough sparkle!
Back to the scraps...I thought it would be interesting to use some of the tiny, thin strips of paper to portray the passage of seasons. And I used German scrap to define the patterns. A snip of pink ribbon and suddenly I felt .25 of an ounce lighter!
Thanks so much for humoring me today. Happy New Year, dear friends. May this year find lots of time to pursue those you love.

Your card and description gave me giggles, Susan! Love the mix of colors as well as the SO interesting combination you choose. The bunny and sentiment- perfect! Laughing about the .25 oz lighter too. It would take a million cards to use up all our scraps at least!

I'd be lost without my scraps! They sit right at hand on my craft table. Love the ones you pulled together to create your wonderful card, Susan. You always have some humor/message to impart to us.

Love your cards, Susan, and love how your mind creates these works of art, you are indeed a very creative lady! This card is fabulous using up some of your scraps - goodness only knows why we all keep so many scraps - we couldn't possibly have time to use them all up!
