Hopefully that’s what I’ve got for you today It’s also going to be another humongous post of mine, so I hope you’ll take time to have a look at all my new projects!

First of all, let me apologize for my unbelievable negligence! I totally forgot to post my DT card for this week’s sketch at Card Patterns - I can’t believe it happened!!
I’m now making it up for the oversight:

Supplies: cardstock: Quill; paper: digital printable; stamp: SU! Baroque Motifs; ink: Versa Color Olive, Grant Olive; chipboard letter: Bella (I think so); assorted fabric, lace doily, resin flower, buttons, and twine come from my stash

(I took another photo of the same card that’s on the CP blog, just wanted it to match the rest of the photos lol :P)
This is a very shabby card, I admit, but it turned exactly how I wanted. I had this idea in my mind to use some leftover scraps of fabric, that I’ve been hoarding. They’re all quite small, so I arranged them in a patchwork. Each piece was crumpled a little before gluing it to the card base. I also used some decorative stripes of fabric on the side, and a lace doily.
I’m a classic example of a card maker on a budget, but this card was my biggest recycling attempt yet - almost every piece in it came from my scrap box. Thus I’m entering it into Inspire Me Challenge #5 - one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

I hope you’ll find some time to play along, there’s still plenty of time! Click the sketch above to hop over to Card Patterns and link your card. Here’s the wonderful prize you’re all playing for this week, donated by our very own Michelle!
