I was given some beautiful fairy stamps by Lavinia awhile back and finally pulled them out to ink up. I stamped this fairy scene on a Distress Oxide background, which I die cut with a Spellbinders oval die. The die cut leaves are by Impression Obsession and the embossing folder is by Sizzix. I also added a sentiment by Taylored Expressions and layers of card and vellum.
The bit of Oxide background that I had was so small that I barely fit the fairy scene on it, and used every bit of scrap that I had left. Same thing with the die cut leaves. This is a card that made great use of snippets from my stash.
Here are some of the snippets that I used to make my card. As you can see, I use my scraps to the very end! The embossed bit will be turned into a tag at a later date.
