I have been craving a way to use the *wicked* cute paper straws that are showing up everywhere- and I finally came up with an idea!
A fun little "congrats" flag! I used foam tape behind the pattern paper making the flag, and a little bit of glossy accents down the length of the straw to hold it in place! I also used the polka dot border stamp from the kit to stamp a distressed background. To create this look: I inked up the stamp with Vintage Photo Distress Ink, spritzed it a little with water and then stamped 2 times, before re-inking and starting the process again. I used my edge distresser on the yellow pattern paper from the Glitz 6x6 pad that comes in the kit. A sprinkle of some red buttons (with nothing through the holes, this is tough for me ;) ) and some more gold stickles! Voila! Have you purchased your "One Scrappy Dame" kit yet? I would love to see what you have created with it- leave a link in the comments I promise to leave some love on your post!

super fun...love the straw and the bits of gold...love.
