I hope everyone had a good week. I am so glad it is Friday. One more day and it is my weekend, too. After I make cards there are always scraps left. Here is an easy and fun way I make use of them.
I cut my scraps into strips of different widths and heights. I store them in a jar and then when the jar is full I make scrap cards with them. Here are a few examples:
This is the jar I store my scraps in. I put adhesive on the front of the card and paste the strips down in a random order. It is nice to have these cards done so that when you need a fast card you can just add embellishments or stickers.
For this card I just added a few stickers and the card was done. Quick and easy!!!
This card I used a little more of a pattern with the scraps. These are scraps from past Christmas card making sessions. I put a few embellishments on it and it was done. I have even made a set of 8 cards with just the scraps on them and given them as note cards. What is fun, you can always find a paper to match the card and make an envelope. I hope you give this a try with some of the scraps you have.
I would like to thank you for taking time to check my blog. I hope everyone has a terrific weekend. No more snow!!!! THANKS!!!
