Playing With Old Supplies

Lately, most of my card making has been done using new supplies, stamps, dies and everything else, because I have been going mad and purchasing all the 'latest and greatest'.  

Well today, I was trying to file my newest acquistions and was making room - who am I kidding, pushing things around trying to make it look like I have more room - I'm surely going to have to take over the second 'child's' bedroom, now they are grown and gone, I've already taken over the first (they're very small rooms though . . . honest!)

Anywho, I came across my old daisy punches in various sizes and idly punched out a few . . . well, then I just couldn't bring myself to throw them away, so I layered them up, stuck a stamen punch-out in the center, fluffed and sponged the petals, added a couple of punched-out leaves and voila, I had a daisy (I'd almost forgotten how quick and easy it was to grab a punch and have a flower just seconds later).  Of course I now had to do something with the flower I had and below is what I finished up with.

I've deliberately left it without a sentiment as I had no idea that I was going to make this card.  I will make a descision when I give it to someone at a later date.

I never did get that room looking any tidier . . . quite the reverse in fact, because you know what it's like when you disturb a pile of anything that has accumulated over time . . . it grows exponentially and you can never get that space back again!!??!!










As always, thanks for stopping by and for any comments, I truly appreciate you all and will reciprocate where possible.  Have a great weekend!  Hazel xx
