Hello crafter's. How is everyone?

I'm back with you sharing another fun card using your pretty papers. This is a fab design for using up all your scraps. I personally can not part with scraps - no matter how small. I store them all in a box for cards such as these.

I'll talk you through the process for this card....

First, I started by cutting many circles from some of the papers from the First Edition Let's Celebrate 6in Paper Pad

I then cut several strips long enough to span the width of a UK A6 card front. They weren't exact in size - between 1/2 - 1in approximately. 

First, I adhered one of the strips across the bottom of the card front. Then, I started placing the circles into my UK A6 card blank. I placed them so they were equally spaced and adhered with wet adhesive.

Then, I drew lines at approximately 1/2in increments. These would act as guides as to where to line up my circles.

I continued to adhere my circles - each one above overlapping the 2 either side below. Then, I adhered one of my strips across the top to hide the top of the circles.

I also trimmed any overlapping circles and strips.

I stamped my sentiment from the Dovecraft Essential Stamp set - General 

I added some Bubblegum Pink liquid pearls to finish. 

That completes the card!

Until next time, take care.

Love, Dani xx
