Don't Throwaway Scraps Thursday #3 on 27 March 2025

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

post's purpose...the why: It was a squeeze to get 2 cards created with scraps from my work table because the end of the month is quickly coming and I've got 4 challenges on Friday the 28th and then two for April 1st and additional four on April 2nd! I do have lots of scrap cuts. What would help is for me to take an hour and make up some mini kits by sorting through some of the scraps and group by a color palette or a mix of prints. Don't Throwaway Scraps Thursday #3. 

when: Thursday, March 27, 2025 is DTST #3 in this new personal blog series.

what: PROJECT #1 = Enjoy Vacation (or could be retirement) card 

notes for #1 =

1. three small squares were cut for a project last month = Palms Springs paper pad by
