Video Tutorial: Using Your Scraps

Hi friends, it’s Carly. Are your cardstock scraps piling up? Mine too, always, LOL! But I think I have a solution for using them and it’s so easy… It’s all about simple repetition! Repeated color palettes, repeated die cutting of the same shapes, and cards with easy patterns!

Step #1: Go through your stash of Pretty Pink Posh dies (or treat yourself to a few new ones) and find some of your favorite small shapes. For these cards I used the strawberry from Big Celebration Cupcake, the rainbow from Get Well Mug Additions and a flower from Easter Bucket Additions.

Step #2: Raid your scraps for a color palette that makes you smile.

Step #3: Put on your favorite show, podcast or playlist and die cut!!! Bonus points if you get yourself a snack first.

Step #4: Use easy card designs to create cards with the die cuts. I really like these ones, an offset grid, a column and a bit of “confetti”!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed today’s tutorial.
