Lots of Scraps

Do you have a box full of scrap DSP - my box is starting to get very full, so I decided after seeing this post by Becky Roberts (see here) that I needed to start using up my scraps and her design would be perfect to case. All materials used Stampin' Up! unless otherwise stated.



The design on the left uses scraps from the Urban Garden Designer Series Paper, while the one on the right uses scraps from the now retired Walk in the Park Designer Series Paper.

All scraps are approx 1 inch wide and 4 inches long. I used another piece of Whisper White cardstock that I had punched the eyelet border along one edge. Add some ribbon and a sentiment and voila a quick and simple card, and a few less scraps in that scrap box!!!

To follow through the design to the inside of the card I used a small strip of the scraps at the bottom.

I am on annual leave this week and having so much fun creating, I'm loving it.
