USING CARD STOCK SCRAPS


I just hate throwing any paper scraps away if there is any way to use them.  Recently I had some of the SU Cherry On Top papers out and had some small pieces left.  I had also seen cards on Pinterest that used them in a woven design.  At the time I thought it wold be too fussy trying to get them put together.  WRONG!  I spaced the red strips vertically and added just a small piece of adhesive to the top edges of all three.  Then using one strip at a time I added the top one by adhering just the left hand side, weaving and then taping it down.  The last two were added the same way.

This fun style can be done with so many different combinations.  And what a great style to make with colors and prints that would be appropriate for the men and boys that are hard to do.

Thank you for stopping by today!
