What To Do With Scraps - Day 2

Today's post is all about using up the scraps from when I created this project - and this project!  I love the papers I used - all from Stampin' Up - and love the projects completed based on the papers I used!  

Supplies I used:
Stampin' Up papers - 
Stampin Up stamps - Four You sayings set
Paper trimmer & scissors
Sizzix die cuts - tags, presents, flowers (3 various styles)
Punches - sun, flower (2 various styles), circle, heart 
White and black ink pads





One of the first things I created was a set of 4 cards, using all papers from Stampin' Up to assure they matched!  By using papers from the same paper pack when you are creating things, helps to make sure everything you create matches and is in the same color family!  This was fun to create the various styles of cards, with 4 different sayings from the Four You stamp set from Stampin' Up!  I am sad to see this set leaving our catalog - but love the new sets they have brought out for sure!  

The next set of things I created was my bookmarks!  I create long style as well as corner bookmarks - picture shown here!  The corner bookmarks are placed on the page you are reading, in the corner of the book to make it easier to find the page!  Plus the bookmark doesn't slip down in the book or falls out all together!  The long style bookmark shown here - is great for books, for journals, to attach with a card, or as a unique gift for anyone who loves to read!  Great to personalize too! 


My latest creations - the corner bookmarks are almost my favorite by far!  I recently made a set for my best friend, and then some for my mom and sister!  Can be created with a 2" square - one cut in half, with punch pieces for the corners!  The long style bookmarks, can be made with larger die cuts - as well as the cards!  Great way to use up extra die cuts, or to create fun projects on what you have available!  

Thanks for stopping by - I hope you are having a fun time using up your scraps!  I am spending the weekend actually using up some of the scraps I already have - and can't wait to see what I come up with creative wise!   Make sure you show me some of the fun things you are doing with scraps!
