Number 6

Well done! please contact the email address to see about your guest design spot.

Onto this week which is chosen by the lovely
Carole, who is a thrifty crafter, this week she challenged us to make scraplings!
If you have never heard of a scrapling (and some of the team hadn't) its the bit of card you trim off to make a square card from an A4 sheet. Its the tall thin bit of card - perfect for using up scraps of papers etc to make a mini card, bookmark or tag.
Having looked around the net our Pat found this explanation on Anns blog. Gorgeous samples for scraplings too
Here is what the design team have come with this week and where possible we have also used up bits of scraps to complete the thrifty feel of a scrapling.
