Let's Be Clear

     Today I have a card to share that is for 2 challenges.  The first challenge is the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, and that is where I got the title for my post.  It is let's be clear because you are to use some clear or see through on your card.  My second challenge is Pixie's Snippets Playground, Week # 133, since I have all kinds of bits to create this card collage.  Let me explain.......

 

     Last week, I was trying to make room on my work surface.  I came across little ziplocks stuffed with all kinds of printed bits, stamped images, die cuts and little gifts.  They had been accumulating for eons, and it's not that they are unloved, but I just don't create fast enough!  I tend to box myself in to have things close.

     I am going to explain where each thing has come from:

*My card base, camera charm, and swirly clip came as a gift in one of my Unity KOM sets.
*The scrap of designer paper is from Studio Calico.
*My clear panel is from a package of embossing folders, and is run through the CB with the  stone wall EF.
*My brads are from Gina K. Designs, and were included in one of their KOM.
*The Sprocket and Feather die cuts were cut with my friend Carol's dies.   I also used her SU! oval punches to create the background  for my sentiment.
*The sentiment stamp is from Clear Dollar Stamp,
*As for the printed postcard and scene, they were also a gift, and I believe they are Crafty Secrets.

     I rubbed down lots of the pieces with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

     Well, there you have it.  By the time I got through putting all the little bags of this and that in a tub I had an 11x14 tub heaped with stuff ready to go on cards.  I need to use these goodies!

     So happy to have you visit!
