Remnants into Cards

After all the layering and piecing was complete on a few 12x12 layouts, there was only one full sheet of paper left from my most recent Scraptastic kit. I had really cut into those papers! With so many little strips and scraps left, I knew just what to do, and assembled a couple of cards. First, a birthday card:

Then a new baby card (it's baby season in our family!):

Both began something like this:

This is such a great way to use up those paper scraps:

• Adhere narrow strips of patterned paper to a cardstock base.
• Pencil in design or letters.
• Cut out and ink edges.
• Attach to card. 

A layout title made with this method would really make a statement! :)
