Molly - Scrapbook Page with Card

There is a scrapbook page I made using all The Robin's Nest products, including the Pattern Paper, embellishments. I did use my own letter and ribbon.
When I teach a scrapbook class, there is always extra paper and embellishments left over from the page we just completed. So I always would teach my student to make a quick card from the left overs. So as you can see that is what i did. Now check out The Robin's Nest website for all their amazing products...

I would be honored if you would be a follower of my blog. If I get 50 followers by my Birthday on March 24th. I will send one of you a free bottle of Memories Mists.... tell your friends...
