Welcome back and welcome to a new month!!!

Today, May 1, also welcomes in a new blog challenge over at Love To Scrap Challenge.
The Love To Scrap Challenge is a scrapping challenge blog and all types of scrapped projects are welcomed - cards, scrapbook layouts, ATCs, mixed media, altered items, 3-D projects, etc. - using bits of new or leftover stuff.
There are six challenges per year, and each challenge lasts approximately six weeks. All challenges are family-friendly Anything Goes. The challenges go live at 4:00 AM Mountain Time on the 1st day of each odd month and run until 4:00 PM Mountain Time on the 15th day of the following month.
Well, as a stamper, I never seem to be able to throw away paper. So I have many saved scraps and this is the perfect challenge blog for me, (LOL) If you save scraps then this is the perfect challenge blog for you as well. The things I save are also things I try out to see if I am going to like it, is it too difficult etc. So a lot of times I will try it on white CS before I use colored cardstock for a project. And of course I save those trial and error pieces. Heaven forbid I would waste any paper (LOL).
On todays project I worked with some border punches (a while back) and pulled out my saved pieces to see if I could use one. Found one that worked and here is the end result. BTW, This is a 6X6 card
Here is what I used to make my card:
- Dark Green CS
- White CS
- Yellow CS and bits of yellow DP
- MS Crochet border punch
- Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers
- Stamped sentiment Tim Holtz Stamper Anonymous - Simple Sayings
- Stamped image - Penny Black - Garden Letter
- Black ink - VersaFine Clair - Nocturne
