USING YOUR PAPER SCRAPS!


One of the ladies on the Cricut Messageboard issued a fun challenge! She asked us to make a card using only our card scraps. One lady said she weighed her box of "left over paper scraps" and it weighed 17 lbs! Mine is not nearly that bad, but I'm well on my way! Anyhow, I had made the wire & bead goodies over 4 months ago, but didn't know what to do with them. Then I saw a card with this layout and it just clicked! Used paper from my scrap bin, added some stamped swirls, and it turned out pretty good. What a great idea she had and it sure helps with recycling! Everyone had a lot of fun with the challenge.

  3. This card is GREAT. And to think it was from scraps. I seem to go thru mine but hardly ever remember to use them. I will have to remember to do it for my next card.
