Oh Scrap! : Scrappy Stars

In the states, this weekend is our Memorial Day holiday.  A time to remember all those who died while serving in our armed forces.  I thought it was the perfect time to be working on some patriotic red, white and blue scrappy stars for a project I have been working on.



These blocks are 9 and 12 inches - I think I have about 6 of each to make.

What about you?  Have you been playing with your scraps?


*********************************************************

It is now your turn to share what you are making with scraps.  Here are the details for linking up: 

  • This linky party is for any scrappy project - It can be in-process or a finished piece.
  • You can link up your blog post (not your homepage please) or Instagram photo from the past week that features your use of scraps.
  • If you are linking to a blog post, I ask that you link back to my blog somewhere in your post. So if you are writing about scraps, just get into the habit of including a link as there will be a linky party available every week!
  • If you are using Instagram, please use the hashtag #ohscrap.
  • This is a party so remember to socialize and comment on the posts of others.
  • Following my blog is not necessary but it sure would be great if you do!
