Reminder: Control Freaks Blog Tour is on Sunday, March 20th. Wedding projects!
Today's card is a compilation of elements I had on my craft table - in other words - rejects of other projects. lol.
The strip of Botanical Gazette designer paper across the front is cut with the Table Setting Die. I was experimenting with it for a different card but that didn't work out. So I resurrected it for this card!
The stamped oval in the center is also a reject, but I loved how it looked, so I saved it. And the decorative label that is behind the oval came from my box of rejected punched and die cut shapes.
I only sponged the decorative label shape by the way. The sponged look on the designer paper is all part of the paper.
To add some visual interest to the card, I stamped the spray of foliage with the Baby Blossoms stamp set. And if you look closely there is a Basic Rhinestone on my bouquet of flowers for no other reason than I had one Rhinestone left on the sheet and I wanted to use it so I could throw away the paper. Real creative. lol.
That was my creative process on this card. My problem is I have more rejects waiting in the wings!

Lisa what a great way to use up left overs! I never would have guessed you didn't sponge the other paper, very cool paper! Your little rhinestone is the finishing touch.... and I WILL be having some corned beef and cabbage too.
Hugs.
I love how this card turned out for you, with all the rejected items you put together ~ brilliant! TFS
Oh, Lisa...I LOVE another idea for using this die! AWESOME card!
Wow, that's really pretty for a bunch of rejects! (LOL) Love the card. See, we should never throw anything away, right? ;-) Thanks for sharing. It's a great card!
Lisa, this is beautiful! Amazing what a scrap here and a scrap there can be made into!
what a beautiful card with your "rejects"! give me hope for my box of leftover "creations" that I just can't seem to part with! Can you tell me what the table setting die is? Thanks for sharing your creation!
