USE THOSE LEFTOVERS FROM FOUR FUN TECHNIQUES!

This week I am serving leftovers!  Did your mom have "leftover night" for dinner?  We did.  Sometimes those leftovers weren't great, but often they were even better the 2nd time!

Before I continue let me explain what I'm calling "leftovers".  They are elements that I created previously for cards, but then never used.  Several will be "leftover" technique sheets that I made during my Learning with Friends videos.  Some may be extra die cuts, or sentiments I stamped but then changed my mind and wanted something different. 

Some of my "leftovers" are past their expiration dates, but unlike leftover food, expired paper is still good.  You just may not be able to purchase a certain product any more, but my goal this week is that I will inspire you to use your leftovers!  Be honest, I know you have some!

This card uses leftovers from four different technique videos.  The card base itself was made for a video showing how to make a Lattice Card.

The Double Embossed panel above the "fence" was made for a video to demonstrate the Double Embossing Technique.

The embossing folders I used were Elegant Eucalyptus & Timber 3D, but the choice of embossing folder is not critical to the design of the card.  Use your two favorites, but as I explain in the video keep in mind the amount of texture each folder has.  

The flowers on the card front were made with the Painted Lavender Bundle and the Pastel Embossing Technique.  These recently retired, but again, use anything you have.

Here is a little closer look.

You can see some color peeking through the Lattice fence.  This was made using the Smooshing Technique for another Learning with Friends Video.  I love this technique!

The only part of this card that was made fresh was the upper panel on the inside of the card.  I had to cut a new piece of Basic White and add a sentiment. Even the sentiment assembly on the front of the card was in my stash of leftovers!

Use this link to download a free tutorial.  Links to each of the videos are included at the end of the tutorial.

But again, my goal is to have you look through your leftovers and see if you can make a complete new card using only leftovers.

A list of the products used is shown below.  Some are "expired" and some are still available.
