I really felt that I was ready with this Woodland & Grove collection. I had grown tired of it but I still hansom papers and scraps and I had to decide of I should throw it away -who o I kid? I never throw anything away-, give it to someone -this I do- or just keep it amongst all the other left over pieces of collections in my scrap studio- this is the most common for me. I decided to grab a stencil and just go over them with black paint to get a hole different feeling of the collection.
Then I left them laying, almost forgetting about them until just recently.
I decided to make some “any occasion” cards. Love having those to grab and just add a “congrats” or “get well” when I do not have time to make a card from scratch.
I used some left over pieces from the Ephemera that came with the collection and put all of it on a tag. Love the way they came out and that I feel happy looking at them.
