Are you constantly wondering what to do with your patterned paper scraps?
Especially those smaller strips and bits?
Should you throw them out? Should you keep them in a bin in hopes that you’ll use them “someday”?
Well wonder no more because here’s a quick and easy way to turn them into a card!
Misty Moonlight card base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
Patterned Paper: 3/4″ x 3″
Basic White “Thanks” cut out with a Stylish Shapes die
While the pieces of Bright & Beautiful designer series paper I used on this card are all the same size, this same idea will work with different size pieces. Just cut them down so they’ll fit across your card and scatter them around a bit.
Don’t overthink the placement!
Just glue those pieces down and add a greeting on top.
Easy peasy and a great way to use up your patterned paper scraps to make a quick card.
Happy Stamping!
