Scrap Box Distress Call!

Last night, whilst searching fruitlessly for a particular shade of patterned paper, I felt suddenly overwhelmed by the contents of my scrapbox. In fact, I could have wept. So many bits of paper building up, spilling over the top, drowning me in scraps (slight exaggeration here), with no planned use for any of them. I was distraught (again, a slight exag). I had to do something.



So I set about choosing some random pieces and turning them from this:






Into this:





And finally this:




Phew!


My mission in life, more than ever, is to work my way through that box until it is nearly empty (I say "nearly", as I don't think it will ever be completely scrap-free!).


Wish me luck!!

What a lovely selection of flowers Debbie. Unfortunately, the nature of a scrap box is that you will add to it as well as use from it. Still, I think you did a grand job using the bits you did.
