I’m a scrap saver. I save almost every scrap of paper – card stock and Designer Series Paper – if I think I might be able to use it for anything. My scrap drawers are getting pretty full, so I thought maybe I should use some of them.
Today I’m sharing a card I made with strips of card stock from some of the blue drawers: Soft Sky, Pool Party, Mint Macaron, Lost Lagoon, Marina Mist, Tempting Turquoise, Island Indigo, and Night of Navy. I glued the strips onto a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Whisper White card stock, then trimmed along the sides.
I glued it onto a 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ piece of Whisper White CS, then glued that onto the Tempting Turquoise card base.
I stamped the top sentiment in Night of Navy directly onto the card front. I stamped the bottom sentiment in Versamark directly onto the card front, then heat embossed it in White.
I stamped the numbers in Night of Navy onto a piece of Whisper White CS, cut them with the Large Numbers Framelits Dies, then glued them onto the card front.
What can you make with your scraps? I’d love to see.
Post your photos to my Facebook page.
Here’s what I used:




I love the colors – they look ver intentional – not at all like scraps. Neat card!
LOVE IT! What a wonderful collection of blues!
I love, love, love all the shades of blue! Can’t wait to try this with a card of my own!
Thanks, Brenda! It’s super easy.
