Scrappy A2's and one 5X7

Once again I've been working to use up scavenged card fronts & paper scraps from my stash. These are the result for today.

Card #1(above): This beautiful scavenged card front just begged to be turned into a 5X7 shaped card - so I did!

Inside:

The stamps used on the inside are from HOTP Birthday Greetings. Stamped on a die cut/embossed/stenciled piece (Spellbinders' Labels Eight).

Card #2:

The rest of these are A2 sized cards, so I didn't always do anything to the inside. Here I've got a gold lattice (Cheery Lynn French Lattice) over a blue piece of card stock. The focal & sentiment are matted on gold glittered card stock. The sentiment was die cut with a die from JustRite's Vintage Labels Four - then stamped with a stamp from HOTP's stamp set called Botanical Frames.

Card #3:

Next card has a two-piece background with rounded corners at the top. The lower piece of the background paper has been embossed with a Darice folder called Scroll Background. The focal is backed with a piece that was die cut with Spellbinders Luscious Labels One. The sentiment is a stamp from Divinity Designs Thanks for Everything stamp/die duo.

Inside:

The stamp used on the inside was another I got from HOTP - from an unnamed Poppy set.

Card #4:

Next up is a card I made with a pink card stock base (so I could use up some of my cream colored scraps!!! The darker pink is a piece of vellum & the sentiment was stamped with a JustRite stamp (from their With Sympathy set). Die used was a JustRite die from the set called Antique Tags One.

Card #5:
