The challenge theme is to use your scraps. I thought i'd show in photos how i accomplished this card.
I always try to die cut what i want to use for cards by die cutting away from the edge as you can see in this first photo.
I also cut out a rectangle from the piece on the top right to use for the bottom right.
As you can see there is a section that isn't covered with the green/cream on the right.
Check out how i covered that in the last photo.
The green stripe was a piece left over from a diagonal cut that
i used as a diagonal on another card
When i cut my circles, i save the outside "frame"
When i layer my paper, i cut circles or squares out from the first layers that don't show.
Can you see the tails i used to cover the section at the bottom right?
Those pieces were cut from the scraps i had used on this card that were too long.
Some of the scraps came from:
