The As you See It challenge for this period is to use up those bits and pieces left over that we all have. In my case I often use them, but I did have the scrap angled piece from an earlier project and the PP was too nice to throw away. I added it to the card front using the black and white side of the coloured butterfly piece I used the other day. The flower and leaves I had left from something last year and I cut a 2nd flower for this card along with a few extra leaves. The die used is from Memory Box and is called Layered Periwinkle. The dream is from a die I’ve had forever and before I knew enough to keep the maker information. Most likely this was purchased in one of those stores like Winners or Homesense. The Trinity Stamp pearls are from my stash.
This is one of the easiest cards to add to a challenge and didn’t require much work as I was using up lots of bits I already had. No stamping at all for this one. Hope you all have a good weekend and thanks for stopping by.

Thanks. You know I often use my left over bits when I can. Sometimes I simply can’t throw it away.

On one side the paper had colour with lots of butterflies and on the other side what you see here. I still have one more piece to use. Thanks my friend.

It’s for cards like this that we all keep a bits box – something from here, something from there and the next thing you know, you have a beauty on your hands. Love the black and white theme – really striking. Thanks for joining us at As You See It Challenge.
