Scraps

If your scrap paper draw is anything like mine, it will be driving you crazy, overspilling everytime you open it and you keep vowing to do something constructive with it all, god forbid you throw any away. So, here are a few ideas for using up those scraps. Have fun, it's amazing what colour combinations you can put together.

Keep it Simple


Why spend hours agonising over what paper, what embellishements and where do I put it all. Keep it simple, it's just as effective. Try these for simplicity.

Try this quick Valentines Card


If you like to keep up the tradition why not try this, it's simple. All you need is a fairly plain paper for the background, different shades of red & pink scrap card for the hearts, any text stamp and a postal stamp, a heart punch (or use your own cut out template) and a piece of garden string with a tag or pendant to hang. By the way, the 'Be mine' text and rose is not part of the card!
