In today’s blog post and YouTube video I am making Christmas cards using paper scraps. The Pine Tree Trimmings Bundle is great value at only £31.50 and is perfect for this technique. If you are like me, you will have lots of small pieces of cardstock and patterned paper. Hands up, who keeps every bit of left over card and paper? ✋🙋😆
Making cards using paper scraps is a great way to use up cardstock, two-tone cardstock, patterned paper or a mix. While I’m using the Christmas Tree die, there are many dies available from Stampin’ Up!® that would work. You can use as many colours as you like, lying the strips horizontally and diagonally.
All items are available on my online store or by clicking on the images below.
Thanks for taking some time out of your day to stop by. If you want to stay up to date with my posts please subscribe to my blog and/or YouTube Channel.
