Trash to Treasure

I try to make a conscious effort to see things outside the box. I must admit, I march to the beat of my own drummer, I don't follow trends, I do what I love. The layout below (forgive the colour my scanner hates pink and I'm having problems with photoshop, so I can't fix the colours right now) was created using garbage! Huh, you say? Well, let me explain!

The strip of patterned paper on the left, the border at the bottom and the adore word, are all from the packaging of the MME Adore patterened paper! What a way to stretch the Scrapping dollars, don't you think? The adore word actually covers "My Mind's Eye" and the ric rac, I love you phrase and scalloped edge are strategically placed to cover the bar code!

I am very happy with how this layout turned out! Lots of goodies going on here...obviously a lot off MME, but I also broke out two different scallop edge scissors!
