Cards Out of Scraps

Most DSP Designer Series Paper is sold in 12x12 pieces, and can be cut in a variety of ways.  You can get 4, 6x6 pieces, and with one pattern alone can get two cards out of each 6x6 piece.  Or you can cut one 12x12 into three 4 inch by 6 inch pieces. When there's left over pieces (scraps) collect and save them to use in a card such as the one shown below.   The window card is beautiful with a color behind the cut out, but then save the cut outs to use in a patchwork quilt design, like shown here in this pocket card.    

Also make a point every 3 or 4 months if you are a regular card maker, to make cards out of scraps of papers.

Here's some that I have made.  





What once were scraps and bits of cardstock, now become coordinated pieces of a card front!
