Hi Everyone

This week I am sharing with you a card made from a pile of scraps from a previous project, we crafters never throw anything away lol.

Here's What I Did:

Taking a group of scrap pieces left over from a previous project I used them to make the background for this card.

These scraps weren't big enough on their own to use so I decided to die cut them into squares and piece them together creating a tiled effect as my background. The backgrounds had been previously made using That's Crafty! Crackle Glaze and so easy to do. Just cover your chosen surface in acrylic paint and let it dry, paint over with the crackle glaze (the thicker the glaze the bigger the cracks) and when that is touch dry just paint over with a contrast colour of acrylic paint and the crackle starts happening pretty quickly, let it all dry and then you have the perfect crackle background, all the paints I used were That's Crafty! Multi Surface Paints.

Back to my die cut squares, I arranged them in a pattern I like and then glued to a piece of black card. I also added a border around the tiles using the last bits of crackle card I had left.

Choosing 3 of the colours I had previously used, teal, Christmas Red and Mustard I painted each colour onto a piece of card.
