It turned out that I used 2 of my scraps and actually really liked my card in the end. I did a stamping the other day that I thought had gone into the bin, I had water coloured it and decided I didn't like the pale colours, I had also done a Silhouette cut file, which in the end I didn't know what to do with, they both appear here!

I used the white paper part under the inked cut file, for the sentiment

the photo doesn't do it justice, it's so pretty in real life and the stamping doesn't look as pale as it did on it's own!

This is so beautiful Faith, it's a gorgeous image and such lovely soft colours, well done in using the scraps, Kate x
This is a stunning card Faith! I love the colors of this one and I love that stamped image. You have colored it up so softly, so beautifully. Well done using ups those scraps instead of scrapping them. Hugs, Brenda
I think all us crafters are hoarders and this is a good example of why !! A lovely design xx
Such a lovely card! I love using what I still have on my desk and using it for a card I did not plan making. Love the colors and the beautiful flowers. Well done, Faith.
A beautiful card faith, your pastel flowers are so pretty and the background is perfect.
