Hero Arts Challenge…using Scraps

CIMG1476

CIMG1480

The Challenge at Hero Arts this week is to make a card from your scraps and as I began to clean my stamping desk I found all elements buried under everything…. so these two cards came together in a snap. For the penguin card all I stamped was the sentiment and put a bow on the package. See the original HERE

The bird card I all I had to do was cut  a background, color the bird and added some Glossy Accents HERE is the  it where the present came from.
