Thrifty Thursday

Welcome to Thrifty Thursday. I love using leftovers and recycling in my crafty projects so today is a favorite feature for me. :) On top of that, I have spent the last couple of weeks de-stashing in my craft room and it feels SO GOOD to be clearing out the old and using up my stuff, so yay for thrifty Thursday!

I made two cards today using leftovers and scraps. Stamp set, All Star baby -- the first MCT stamps I ever owned, which I won in a drawing!!! -- for the sentiment.

The cloud speech bubble was the perfect choice for the stork quote, don't you think. :) These papers are an old line from Cosmo Cricket.



My second card was super simple as well. Another "old" pattern paper, this one by Daisy D's, with leftover bits of October Afternoon polka dots.

Super love the "love" word die from the Family is Everything set. Paired it with the tiny tag from the Chunky Jar Accessories set, Puffy Hearts Just For You heart die, and layering heart dies. Sentiment is also from the Puffy Hearts set.
