Another man's card for the box

Today's challenge on 365 is No. 9: Just the scraps - 'Use only scraps of paper - don't cut down anything new! Try to use 3 scraps on your card. You can trim up paper that has previously been cut down. '

I've used the sketch on Truly Scrumptious challenge 2 for this card:

Sharon on Truly Scrumptious added: 'but there is more. We would like to see some handmade buttons on your card. They can be made from anything; paper, card, fabric, shrink plastic, acetate, fimo.... but they must be made by you.'

So, to qualify for the 365 challenge I used three different scraps of Guy's Life Earthtones papers, including those used to cut the buttons using a Thin Cuts die 'buttons' (haven't used this for ages), adding the darts photo image and the computer generated Happy Birthday.


I'm pleased that these challenges helped me to make another man's card.
