Janet from Try it – Like it – Create it with a tutorial for making a card from scraps.
Making a card doesn’t have to be difficult. Using up your scrap pieces can be an enjoyable creative process. I keep my little scraps in a basket on the side of my craft table and then put color coordinating pieces together.
Materials:
- card stock
- the Best Glue Ever
- ScraPerfect’s No-Clog Writing Cap™
- scraps
- gem stickers
- alcohol ink marker
I used cardstock and Rinea Foil but any paper will work. I didn’t cut down or adjust the pieces. I find it a fun creative process to work around these constraints and find a pleasing composition.
I color my own gem stickers to coordinate with the design. This tip is a great cost-saving. I didn’t add a sentiment to the card. This makes the design flexible for a variety of different uses and I can personalize it when it’s needed.
