Here's an excellent idea for turning your scraps of paper into embellishments to add to cards, mini albums, gift tags, scrapbooks and more. I didn't intend for this to be a long video, but I had so much fun making these and I wanted to share. Thanks so much in advance for watching. I appreciate your continued support! HAPPY CRAFTING!!!

Yeah , the only thing I learn from people that scream is how far away from them I want to get. You are so laid back it is pleasant to watch you for hours. Waaaay better than watching the news. I turned off my TV three years ago. I do not miss it. And I get a lot of crafting done.

I love that you show great ways to use scraps. I struggle with them. What I love even more is that you keep reminding us to enjoy the process. That’s the best part for me. Most crafters are fast, to the point and crank out tons. My favorite part of crafting is enjoying it, savoring the process too. Thanks so much for reminding of why I do it.

LOL That's funny that you mentioned people liking your calm voice. I have the patience of a gnat and rarely ever watch a video longer than six minutes, but here I am, half way through your video and still enjoying it! I love the calmness, your soothing voice, and just watching you taking your time while creating. Everyone always seems to be in such a hurry when they make things. One thing I really loved was when you accidently marked on your cut out, and instead of getting upset, you just turned it over and stamped on the other side! LOL That was awesome. Not even one cuss word! XD

As I was watching you cut the papers, it is amazing that you don't need to use a trimmer. If I just used scissors as you are doing it old be a hot mess. I can never cut a straight line. You made some nice things out of scraps. Something we all have so much of.

Hi ... love this idea of using up scraps, Thank you for sharing this with us, guess I won't be throwing so many bits out now! lol! It will be so handy to have ready made elements to hand! Can I just give you a little tip, with regards to running a pen around the edges, I found doing it the way you did, I always, but ALWAYS slip and mark the sentiment or whatever I am edging, so ..... I now do it from the back instead so any slips won't be showing on the front .... no extra work to do! Works a treat! :) Thanks again for your always very helpful videos ... I always enjoy them!

So beautiful I was about to begin making some cards two days ago from all the small paper stash we end up with, and I just don’t throw them away I use every single bit....guess what? Yesterday while waiting for mom at the dentist I decided to walk around and ended up in a kiosk that’s been in that mall for years and ended up talking to the owner quite some time and ended up showing her the mini books and mini junk journals I make, cards, and other crafts and she asked me, “why don’t you make & pack some cards and other of your crafts and I’ll sell them here for you?” So this weekend I’ll be making some and let her sell them for me🌸I’m so happy about it🌸. Thanks for your sharing your video you gave more ideas‼️

Sometimes I have a brain block when starting a card. I don't like to spend money on saying stamps so I print off my sayings from the computer. I did that then started playing around with them. This is such an easy, no stress way to play and still make something that will inspire a card. Thanks for the time and effort to do this.

But I have had music on or Christian talk radio, too. The comment on one of the card embellishments said "Love one another". You said we all need to be reminded of that these days. That is so true. I thought that if more people did crafting...especially paper crafting, they wouldn't have time to do some of the things happening these days, and they would have more fun doing it and have better results to show for it, too. Thank you for sharing your time with us.

It's so cute, on that one you showed us with the yellow cs/white polka dots, how when you put the border of black tildes/dots that along the top side the dots are inside of the polka dots and look like little pairs of eyes looking down at the center design. How adorable is that!!! :D They are just perfect, with the "eyes" at the corners are looking inward and down and as they get toward the center, they're looking downward.
