Sweetest Cherries

 I was playing around with the Sweetest Cherries set last night. I created two cards that I thought were pretty cute! I went to clear up my creative mess and realized I accidentally laid one of them in my Sweet Sorbet stamp pad! Have you ever done that?  Well, I believe you can fix almost anything in crafting! Here is what I did. Here is my first card. See that nasty red line on the upper right-hand corner? Bummer! I tried a few things to remove it, but it just made it darker. I decided to go to my trimmer. I ended up cutting off about 3/4 inches from all three sides of the card. I did the same for the inside since I had already stamped a sentiment in there.  Here is my 'new' card. I actually like it better now! I ended up using dimensionals to pop up the front panel. I sponged the edges of the inside sentiment and put it all together.  What have you done to save a card or project after making a mistake? I'd love to see your creativity!
