Shabby Mixed Media Cards with VIDEO TUTORIAL ~ Scraps of Elegance May Kit

Shabby Mixed Media Card for Scraps of Elegance, Prima Flowers, BoBunny, Prills, Blue Fern Studios Chipboard, Epiphany Crafts Hex Bubbles

Melinda is the master of putting together gorgeous kits, and this "Belle Journée" May Kit has been such a delight to work with. 

If you are a regular follower, you know that I adore experimenting and using things in unusual ways, so I had fun playing with the Epiphany Crafts Hex Bubble Caps included in the Elements Add On. I've transformed this normally trendy product into a grungy, shabby element for my cards. Check out my process video tutorial below to see how I've created these cards including the altered Hex Caps.

Enjoy!
