Today's scrap buster - accent a stamped image. Stamp your image, then cut it out, and "surround" it with pieces of scrap. Stamp your image on the scrap, cut out, then accent with other scraps. Stamp your image on several different scraps, cut out parts of the stamped images, then piece back together using different pieces of the other stamped scraps (paper piecing!).
And, now for your "bonus". When I was thinking about this challenge, I thought of several of those I posted. I also did a search about using paper scraps. The following is a paper I found from Scrapbook.com site. All but one of the challenges I had though of were on that paper. So, here are all the suggestions on that paper:
