Using Scraps to Make a Card

July 17, 2023 Leave a Comment

Are you guilty of hoarding beautiful scraps of paper, only to leave them untouched and forgotten on your desk or in a basket? Well, fear not my friend, because I have a solution for you! Instead of letting those lovely bits and pieces collect dust, challenge yourself to use them up sooner rather than later. With a little creativity, you can upcycle them into beautiful projects, just like this pretty card I created:

I’m always amazed at what we can create with a little bit of imagination and some simple techniques. I hope today’s card and video demonstration will make you want to put your scraps to good use and that you have a blast crafting! I sure know I did!

*HURRY! The AWESOME “Apple Blossom Dies” that I used on today’s card are still available at 50% off on the CLEARANCE RACK! They’re NOT in our annual catalogue, although the coordinating “Apple Harvest” stamp set is!

One of my favourite ways to use up scraps of card stock and Designer Series Papers is to adhere them to a panel and then use as a background, die cuts or punches. To see more examples of cards (and videos) that showcase this technique, click on the links below:

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More…
