This may just be my most favorite Papertrey Ink SAF 2015 challenge yet...I loved getting creative with odd bits and pieces of things. I'll share my card with you and see if you can spot the unconventional items, and will show you what I used at the end of my post :).
Aside from the mystery items, I used Papertrey Ink Chicken Scratch Gingham paper, Aqua Mist and Summer Sunrise felt, the Quilted: Autumn stamp set and dies, a darling new set that Heather Nichols designed for her SAF challenge...you'll learn more about that here soon, the Heart-2-Heart #3, Be Happy, Tag Sale #2, and the Cover Plate: Blue Skies Rays dies.
Sandpaper, upholstery tacs, brass hinges, canvas tabs, and paint. I die cut my sandpaper, painted the hinges using the Krylon paint, added my die cuts to the canvas tag, and embellished the top of the tab with the upholstery tac after removing the sharp end.
Can't wait to see how you'll make this challenge work for you!

Genius! And somehow, even with all the hardware, it still has your signature feminine style. Love it.
