Fun with Scraps

So I was cleaning my scrap room last weekend before coming back to work, and I kept finding all of these fun scraps. Of course playing with the scraps was just as fun as organizing (I love organizing) and so I made a few quick birthday cards. These cards are small (the two with squares are about 4 x4 and the other two are 2.5 x 2.5) but that is the beauty of using the scraps- I simply made the cards as large as the scraps. I, admitedly, am a scrap hoarder. I have all these little boxes and bins and baggies of scraps. I just can't understand paying a lot of money for a piece of paper and then not using all of it. Plus its fun to let my friends go through the scrap bin and make things when they come over too! Hope your week started out fabulous! Oh- the patterned paper is from American crafts, the sentiments are from Papertrey!

Ok, the blog seems to not be scheduling like I want it to, my Father's day post went up and said it was Saturday when I posted it on Thursday night. Sigh



This is another quick card with the Fancy Pants journaling cards. Nothing fancy here. Just some cardstock and a Fab button (using up scraps!)



Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI

Patterned Paper: Fancy Pants, Basic Grey,

Button: Foof a loof

Twine: Walmart

Fun with Scraps

A scrap of paper caught my eye the other night as I was looking for some paper for a scrapbook page. It being close to valentine's day, I thought I could make a variety of cards in order to show how easy it is to change the look of a card by changing the size and shape. The possibilities are endless! I can't wait to dive into my Valentine's paper stash. I don't really know where the paper came from, the manufacturers tag was cut off....Hope everyone gets some ideas!
