Good Friday is the time to remember our Lord Jesus who died for us on the cross.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16

A good day for a fun card! I thought of mixing up the colors and make fun rays with some distress ink. I added some sequins and glittered butterflies too.

Jesus is the reason for the season.

Happy Good Friday!

It is Earth Month and I thought what better way but to make a card made out from scraps & things that we usually throw away.

Want a pretty bow on your card but trims are expensive? How about making your own washi bow made out of toilet roll? Yes! Toilet roll. Here's the how-to.

1. Get a toilet roll and wrap it with your favorite washi tape

2. Use a sharp scissors and cut at your desired width

3. You will get something that looks like this (Piece A). Make two of these by repeating steps 1-2

4. After getting two of the above (from Step 3), take one of it and cut it in half to get this (Piece B).

5. Use the short piece (Piece B) that you have just cut and wrap it around the longer piece (Piece A) and glue it with some glossy accents or any strong adhesive that you have.

6. And finally, you will get your washi bow!

Another way to use up some scraps is to save those pretty packaging that comes with your scrappy products. I have used one of it as the background paper for my card and with the washi bow, it looks like any card made out of your normal stash.

Let's go green and save the Earth (and some money too!) ;)

I'm sure all of us crafters have some baker's twine laying around in our stash. Have you ever thought of different ways to use them? Well, I did! Here's what I did with them.

I did a banner with some twine tassels! :) It's pretty easy, quick and fun on any project. Wrap it around your fingers to a desired "thickness" then tie one end with some twine. At the other end (the bottom), cut the loops off and you have a tassel!

I then wrote the word "celebrate" with some stickles and ta-daa... I am done.

I am entering this card for the Twinery challenge #TT003.
