on a roll

Well...look at that big ol' typo. Oops. Luckily I had another one of those journal spots to redo it.
Two cards from the leftover MME glitter paper. Trying to use up a lot of my preprinted die cuts.

Used the leftover craft paper from my scrap used for the flower card to make a bunch of little 2" square cards. Started with the pink butterfly in the back and then went, hey I have butterfly punch. These are what made me realize I needed a little thank you stamp.
Paired some old Daisy D pattern paper with a Bobunny sticker for an easy layout.
Used up the rest of the paper for these. I think my lemon looks a little wonky.
Love this airplane paper.

The green is the backside of the airplane paper and the black is leftover from framing the pic.

This was the layout that I was orignially going to use different alpha stamps on, but they were sticky. I like this better, anyway. The stripy strip is the backside of the cream notebook paper that is the background.

Two quick projects using the leftovers. Still have half a sheet of these sunflower stickers left. I'm going to use the tag on a layout.

No leftovers on this one. Pages are 6x6 squares directly out of the MME pad from M's last year.

Hey, look what I did!

Used an Alison Davis sketch from her blog and some of my MME Stomp paper. The title actually says "Dino Spike" but it's really hard to see the smaller letters. It's been a while since I really used stamps on a page, but I'm having fun with it. No misc. small products with the leftovers, since the leftovers are still pretty large pieces that can be used on other pages.
BG paper. Blue swirl is the front, brown/blue polka dot is the back. K&Co. glitter snowflakes.

Used some of the leftover strips of paper for a card and a tag. The card is ok. Like the color combination. Not sure what I'll use the tag for. Discovering that pigment inks really don't work well for my acrylic stamps and have been sticking to dyebased inks.
K & Co. paper, LYB title, and MM felt "25" and holly leaf. Glitter borders are from HL. Adapted a Becky Higgins sketch.
I really kind of stink at cards. The polka dot pattern is the backside of the present paper. Bracket labels are from the Anna Griffin Valentine journal pad. Stamp is one of the little $1 stamps from M's. Flower was part of a huge MM set from Target that I got on clearance a few years ago. Almost through them all.
The 6" squares of paper are from a sheet of WRMK paper. Just set the other two aside to use on a different layout, so no leftovers.
MME paper, LYB die cut journal box, old AC rubons and Wubbzy cut from a DVD sleeve last year and set aside. I think I may have to ditch the rubons; at this size they look fine, but IRL you can see how they cracked during application. I think time and too many temp changes are taking a toll on them.
I really liked the green paper for how versatile it was. I think it was part of a more vintagy/hertiage stack, but it looked good with just about everything. I traced a tag onto some script paper and tried to go for a slightly shabby feel. I was thinking of adding a pic to use as an accent on a future page. Next was a little brown bag tag hidden journaling thing. Had them forever. Out of 10 in the package, I think I've used about 4 now. Added a MM felt poinsettia and some gingham ribbon. Going to use it for journaling on a page in the Christmas album from 2008. The two easy cards. The first one is a MME card from the big Peachy Cheap order paired with some Prima flowers, and the second is a just a BoBunny stickers. Easy, but I like them.
