MIM #65 - Backgrounds from Patterned Paper Scraps

Make It Monday #65 is a challenge I'll just bet we all could work on  for months with all the scraps of card stock and patterned papers in our craft rooms! 
AND, maybe I will just continue to do so ~ I love using these pieces of too-pretty-to-throw-out scraps :^)
Dawn's video is so helpful ~ she shows the entire process from beginning to end.  Check it out  Here

I used the negative part of PTI's Banner Border die to create my "strips", taping the different patterned papers behind it to peek through.  I printed the sentiment on my computer and cut it out to look like a trailing banner from the butterfly.  The butterfly is a 3D sticker from Special Moments.


Thank you for stopping by ~ I love to hear what you think!
