I got this idea from a STEM post I found on Pinterest, involving cups, straws, and putty. I failed BIG TIME, so I decided to scrap it and turn it into a Lego Challenge instead. So after we went over rules, I told my kiddos that today they could build anything they wanted, but our…
goodies... lindo!
Hello and welcome to another Let's Get Hopping blog hop. The challenge set for this month's hop was to create with the scraps leftover from other projects. Whether it be thin strips of cardstock off cuts, stamped or die cut images that didn't quite look right on even the leftover card from where a shape has been punched or die cut out, I'm sure we all have a stash of scraps that we just can't bear to throw away in case they can be used later. Now the interesting thing about my project for you today is that it's been created using the scraps from a card that ended up being scrapped. (You know those cards that look great in your mind but in reality are terrible 😆) So have you worked out what the scraps are? Well believe it or not, the scraps are the water-coloured petals in the sunflower. When working on the original project that didn't make it off my desk I had water-coloured and die cut a sunflower with the intention to use the outline portion of the sunflower but as I was popping out the petals I couldn't bear throw them away. So instead of discarding them I die cut another outline in Cinnamon Cider and set about putting together the jigsaw puzzle. A little tip if you plan to have a go at this technique yourself, make sure you cut out a solid sunflower shape to glue the outline and little petal pieces to. Inspired by the TGIF Challenge Blog Sketch for this week I trimmed an inch off the edge of the card front so the piece of In Good Taste DSP on the inside of the card was peeking out. Next up in the hop is my super talented friend, Alicia Yap. I can't wait to see the creative ways she has used scraps. Until next time -Tan xx

I've been playing around with my hand dyed scraps the past couple days. Trying to think of something spectacular to make. Or just something...
Hallo allemaal Vandaag een korte blogpost voor jullie maar wel eentje met veel foto,s. Op FB bij Tiets is ee...
Hello everyone, It's a lovely day over here in the Isle of Man, it's like spring has arrived. Hope it's as nice where you are. First, I'd like to say a big Thank You to everyone who left comments on my Blog challenge post last week. It was the first one I'd entered, and I was thrilled to get so much positive feedback - Thanks again. Here's my entry for this weeks challenge over at Less is More http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/ It's Week 56 and the subject is 'Don't Scrap It'. It's all about using up some of those precious pieces of card and paper, or ribbon and lace that we just can't bring ourselves to throw away, no matter how small they are. Wk 56 Don't scrap It The balloons were cut using the 'Alphalicious' Cricut cartridge from scraps of BoBunny's Double Dot papers. I love these, and I must admit I keep every piece, even the tiniest ones. You never know when they'll come in handy. I attached the balloons with foam pads, and then the strings were hand drawn. I made a small hole either side of the balloon strings and knotted a scrap of matching ribbon through, stamped a sentiment with co-ordinating inks and there you have it, quick and simple. It made me smile when I'd finished it! Hope you like this weeks entry. Pop by again soon. Linda x
