Using scraps to make cards

Late last year, I reorganized and cleaned my scrap room. Ever time I would walk by my room it would overwhelm me. It would literally suck the inspiration out of me. When I first walked into my room, I decided to attack my scrap pile. I originally organized everything by colour and each colour got a different bags. I noticed that this was taking a lot of valuable space. To get this space back, I limited my scraps to a single much smaller bin, which means I had to purge a lot of papers. I learned from this exercise I decided that I needed to stop creating scraps when I create a project. Once I'm done with this project, I started making cards, from the scraps.

Here are the cards I made with the scraps from the previous post. I'm very happy with how cards came out. I'm planning on sending my extra cards to Operation Write Home.



Here is a little closer look, I used some coordinating cardstock and washi to create these cards:






TFL, hope this inspires you.
