Often times we're left with tons of scraps from die cutting, so why not make use of them and make more cards! First off, I used the Journal Alphas dies to create my sentiment 'Nuts About You'. I didn't bother putting back some of the inside pieces, as it gives it a bit of modern look. I then sized down the card stock to a size just 0.5" less than A2 on each side. I had this left alignment look in my mind. Then, I sprinkled on some white acrylic paint splatter for a little extra texture to the colored card stock.
Next, I stamped and colored the squirrels from My Favorite Nut and die cut my images out with coordinating dies. I first adhered my negative die cut panel over an A2 base with foam tape, aligned to the top left. Then I arranged my squirrels around and within the sentiment with foam tape as well.
So if you ever want to make use of your scraps to make a second card after die cutting out a sentiment, hope today's card gives you some inspiration!
