Today two challenges caught my interest: use leftovers from previous challenges and have six embellishments. I gathered some leftovers.
I decided to use the remnants of the donut card (here): the cut-out circle became my stencil. I took a piece of card board and started pouncing color through it. I used my long-neglected Distress Stains for this.
The way they layered up transparent made me think of balloons. I drew their outlines with a fine liner. The sentiment is also a leftover, as are the dots. At first I had six, but mysteriously lost two of them, so I pulled out two enamel dots to complete the arrangement. The sentiment is a leftover from a project that never happened.
I am very happy that I could use up some leftovers. Entering this card in following challenges:
