Scrap Spending Freeze

I have challenged myself to not buy any more scrap supplies until I make 100 layouts using the supplies I have on hand. I can still buy adhesive and blades but nothing else.

I made two layouts and five cards this weekend but only the layouts count toward my challenge.

This first one has pictures of my oldest son and his family, plus his little brother (my youngest son). With the exception of the large 12X12 paper, I used all scraps on this. I made the leaves by stamping, embossing, and inking them.
 
 
This one has pictures of my youngest son and two of my grandchildren. The leaves are real. Again, all the paper with the exception of the large background paper was from my scrap bin. I used up an old slide holder. I am also trying to use fiber and ribbon as I have so much. I'd say too much, but I'm not sure that is possible - at least for me. I used ribbon or fiber on everything I made this weekend - including the cards. I don't want to post the cards because some of them go to people who read this blog.
