What to do with leftover images

   What to do with leftover images? Try to use them anyway you can! 
 I don't like wasting anything especially watercolor paper so when I was making the card found HERE and goofed on stamping the truck, I just set it aside. I found it the other day and decided to make a card. 
  The back of the truck was the issue. It didn't stamp dark enough so I just trimmed off the baskets of apples and strategically placed the oval sentiment over my goof! Now it looks like the truck is riding over some rolling green hills ready to deliver birthday wishes to its recipient.

Stamps: Countryside and Perfect Punches
Paper: River Rock, Crumb Cake, Watercolor paper
Ink: Black Stazon, Early Espresso, SU Markers
Accessories: Oval Punch, Old Olive Striped Grosgrain Ribbon, Color Spritzer Tool, Big Designer Button, 1/8" Early Espresso Taffeta Ribbon, White Gel Pen, sponge

Hope you had a great weekend. Thanks for stopping by.

Beautiful card. I'm sure glad you explained the "goof" because I sure couldn't see anything wrong with it.
I too waste nothing. My friends think I'm scrap freak!

Another lovely card! I love the rolling hills, and the story behind the truck image. Another example that "mistakes are just opportunities for embellishment"
