Using up all the scraps...

I know that most crafters are very very thrifty! I'm like that too.
I made this star using a selection of all my little scraps and my circle punch.




Taking the scraps and making all these little flowers took a while, but it keeps your hands busy and it's great to have a box of them ready to go. They are often used on my cards and gift tags too.
Both sides of the star are covered.
I really like the finished look and it looks really pretty in the Christmas lights as the gold embossing sparkles.
Today I am getting my bag packed for the demo tomorrow, I'm in Craftworld - so do pop by and say hello if you are in the area....
Happy crafting
