Scrap card challenge

Last week, I shared a post with two cards made entirely out of scrap materials. I like the challenge of this so I thought that I would give myself another Scrap challenge where I tried to make a few different cards using the same scrap materials in each one but also incorporating other materials as necessary

The scrap involved in this challenge was:

A mint base card which was the back of a card someone sent to me.
A pink envelope written to me
A Purple envelope written to me.
A piece of pale pink card which a work college cut two templates from and then put into the recycling bin.

And here are the three cards I made.

I ended up punching a whole load of flowers from the pink and purple scrap so I used these on all 3 cards.  In the top right card- I layered two on top of each other whereas the other two just used a single flower each time.
The floral centres on the left two were drawn on in silver gel pen whereas the right one had pink mirrored punched centres.

The only materials used that weren't scrap were the black card, the pink mirrored elements and the silver outline stickers on the bottom one.

I'm not going to teach Grandma to suck eggs by explaining how I made each one as you are all intelligent enough to work it out for yourselves but if you do have any enquiries, just leave me a comment and I will do my best to answer it.

What do you reckon?

P.S.  I'd love to see you take part in a Scrap card challenge!
