I made a Bargello card from scratch, but I also had this herringbone piece sitting in my stash. I can throw scraps of DP out with no hesitation, but when it comes to offcuts of gel prints and other handmade backgrounds, I tend to hold onto those, and once I have accumulated enough, I make these backgrounds with them. But I also always struggle to use the backgrounds, not wanting to cover them up too much. For this one I added a foiled die-cut birthday sentiment and some flowers, edging it with gold Stickles and adding white dots to the card base.

You have some beautiful background pieces on this. I can see why you'd want to save those. And great idea to show them off by using just a gold sentiment. The pop of red flowers is a fab detail.
