Live Simply ~ Simple Cards

These cards were made with my scraps from my Live Simply Basket that was showcased yesterday on my blog.  I decided not to use the bee on the box and did not want it to go to waste.  I added some stickles to the wings and yellow stripes.  I put red stickle dots in the center of the flower.

These bugs were too cute to cover up, so I added some twine or a paper bow.

I punched a red circle and stamped Hello on it.  I pop dotted it over one of the smaller circles on the paper.


This one here I used these cute letters I found at Michaels.

One of my goals this year was to make more cards.  Of course, not just to make them but to use them!!  Using up scraps to make cards is an easy way to accomplish this goal!!
