I was talking with another crafter a few weeks ago, and she mentioned that she has a hard time creating with out a pattern to follow. She even shared that she can not visualize how a project might look using other papers not used in the sample. This is foreign to me, but I have since learned it’s real for many crafters. (Who knew?) This lead me to the conclusion that using up “scraps” would be nearly impossible with out having a jumping off point. I will admit there are times that my muse is not flowing and creating scrap card after scrap card will deplete the little creativity I had. But I know that I will not be sending 5 cards to the same person, so I have no trouble doing the same (ish) pattern over and over again with the scraps I have laying around my craft table.
So, without further ado, here are some cards I created from scraps. I share them with you now in the hopes you too can find inspiration to create and clean up your scraps at the same time.
Hope these cards give you some inspiration!
Happy Crafting!





These cards are adorable! You have taken scraps and made them beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration!
Because of your mentoring, I personally am getting much better at designing scrap cards. Using different papers is not near as much a problem as using up my scraps can be. Thanks for the ideas and … the fact we ARE allowed to just play!
