Thank you for joining us for the April Pals Blog Hop! To celebrate Earth Day, the April blog hop features new cards and projects that capture the essence of Earth Day through colors and images and/or use recycled or reused elements. We hope you are ready for some fun and creative ideas. You should have just left stop number 24 on the Pals Hop – Rae Harper at Wild West Paper Arts. If so, you are in the right spot. If you get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
If you’ve ever stamped with me you know first hand that I do not throw any paper in the garbage! Joy C., one of my Circle of Pals calls me the “Paper Police”. She shakes and trembles (jokingly) when I catch her throwing even a 1×1″ piece of paper in the trash… LoL. To make my card today I gathered all my used up scraps of card stock and designer series paper and used the Blossom Petals Punch (121808) to design the flower on the Mother’s Day card.
I made many more cards, but for the sake of keeping you moving along, I will post those other cards in the days to come, so come back now.

What a great way to use your scraps! I hang on to scraps also, and I find myself constantly digging into the pile to find a small piece for a sentiment or small image.

Maggie, what a great idea! I save and save scraps, but never know what to do with them. Now I know! This is a very pretty card!
