First, I searched my scrap pile for leftover useable bits. I found a bit of my hand-stamped washi tape and a piece of bubble wrap stamping.

I then checked out my stash of stickers. I found a beautiful one that was gifted to me by my daughter-in-law. Yeah!

Next, I played with the pieces on the DSP and adhered the Bubble Wrap scrap on the left edge. 

I then adhered the bit of Washi Tape at an angle on the bottom of the DSP.

Next, I attached the sticker to the top right corner of the panel.

I then adhered the DSP panel onto a Basic Black matte to make it a bit sturdier. 

Next, I added the Corduroy Button Brad and the two small flower brads.

I then adhered the panel to the Wild Wheat card front.

Lastly, I added a few rhinestones and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

First, I taped two strips of leftover Basic White paper together. I made sure the strips are touching each other. the tape is placed at the ends of the strips to keep them from moving. I taped three or four sets. 

I then gathered stamp sets that had small images, various ink colors, and stickers.

Next, I randomly stamped various images, using various colors, onto the strips of Basic White.

I then decided to grab the Blushing Bride ink pad and slightly swipe it across the strips of paper to tone down the white. (You could also sponge or brush on the color or even use various colors.)

Next, I added a few circle stickers that I had. You want to place the entire sticker on only one strip.

I then took the strips apart and cut them to whatever size I needed for my creation. I did use every bit on various cards.

Once, my washi tape was made, I adhered two strips on each side of a Basic White panel.

I then stamped the girl silhouette image and sentiment in the center of the panel, using Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

Next, I added another strip of my washi tape on the bottom of her feet.

I then adhered the panel onto a Basic Black matte, and then onto the Only Orange card front.

Lastly, I added a few Star Designer Elements and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
