Use Those Left Overs

It's Wednesday again!!  That means it is time for another What If? Wednesday challenge from The House That Stamps Built.  This week is a Designer's Choice Challenge and Joy chose the theme of "use leftover papers and supplies".  My card is FULL of leftovers.

I created this background several months ago, when I was trying to use up some scraps of Christmas paper packs.  But after I finished it (and another one I did actually use on a card) it ended up in my bits and pieces pile.  So, when I saw this challenge I knew I was going to get a chance to use it.  The die cut button and sheer ribbon were also in my bits and pieces stash and both the snowflake and banner were cut from scrip pieces of card stock.  I didn't actually make a cut into any whole pieces of stock or paper, as the card stock base was all ready to go as well.  The only thing I cut into was the twine.  I hope you get a chance to play along; it's a great way to use up some of those things that haven't made it onto a card, yet.

Supplies:
Stamps: Repeat Impressions "1141F. Christmas"
Dies: MFT "Blueprints 13" stitched rectangle and banner; PTI "Fancy Flakes" and "Button Stack 2"

Challenges:
Pixie's Workshop #228--anything goes with snippets

Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge #280--vintage or anything goes
Crimbo Crackers #106--anything goes
As You Like It--Favorite: Patterned or Embossed papers (though I do love embossing folders, I'd have to say that I prefer patterned papers.  A good mix of patterns makes all the difference on a card)
