Serenity - card using up just one snippet of 12 x 12 paper

Hi Everyone

Well, a better day here this afternoon, though it poured down earlier and yesterday was so bad it was a write-off. Hope you are enjoying better weather wherever you are.

I have a quick and easy card to share with you today - the eagle-eyed among you might have spotted it on my desk on Wednesday. It was made from bits and bobs leftover from a scrapping session.


I've used a basic white square-shaped card but rounded the bottom corners just for a change. The leftover piece of  patterned paper had  some distressed edging in an aqua shade so I emphasised the colour by  inking each edge with Peacock Feathers distress ink - love this gorgeous shade :)

The collection includes a page of stickers which has this strip of circle trim on it. A length of it has been used already on a scrap layout and the rest was perfect as a trim on this card.


The topper is also from the collection - cut from a page - and I have absolutely no idea what the characters mean ... I just hope it's something beautiful, and that I have it the right way up :))


Materials used:
Square white card; corner rounder; black cardstock for matting; leftovers from BoBunny Serenity Collection; Tim Holtz DI, Peacock Feathers; Turquoise seam binding from Ribbon Carousel; Craftwork Cards Vintage Berries red candi

I'm submitting this card to the following challenges:

Challenges 4 Everybody #6 - Anything Goes
365 Cards - Day 246 - Say It With Flair
and I can't use snippets and not pop over to Di's Snippet Challenge :)

Time for a cuppa, I think, and then I'll hunker down in the craft space for a bit of scrapping - which means there will be even more leftovers and snippets to put to good use :)

I wish you all a wonderful weekend, take care and happy crafting,
