I work at a Sheltered Workshop for people with Special Needs. I am an employee there. Our shop use to take
used cards from the shredding room. We were told to cut off the notes from inside the cards.
Then reuse them for Valentines Day,Mother’s Day,Father ‘s Day and Christmas.
Then we would glue them onto construction paper,and draw pictures or whatever we wanted on the inside.
Saves buying them. It’s also reusing. Sharen
Beautifully done!! These cards certainly DO NOT look like "scraps" - love them, and thanks for sharing!!
I chuckled at your scrap collection. I have 50 times that amount. Guess I'd better get busy! lol Love the pastel quilt block. So pretty! Thanks, Kristie
Thank you for speeding up your video! I don't have a ton of time and I appreciate a concise lesson. Love the cards, especially the quilt.
I find the most satisfaction from creating cards out of scraps.
The inlay process is so satisfying to watch lol
I have a bunch of scraps to use up right now. Thanks for this video.
13 cards from scraps?! Amazing how many you got from papers you were going to throw away!
This is an incredible video and a beautifully creative way to use scraps. I am so glad it came up in my feed. I love that quilted die and set out on a mission to find one - woohoo which I did! It will be so useful when I get it. It makes absolutely beautiful cards. All of your designs and ideas are just fabulous! Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Brilliant ideas and really lovely cards.
I’ve also donated 100’s of cards to Kindness just this year. It’s a blessing to be able to share my craft to those in need. Pam, Vancouver, WA
I’ve recently took up card making I’m normally a crochet lady so this is new to me and donating some seams like a great idea xx
What is Kindness? A charity organization?
This is awesome. There are a lot of organizations that take card donations. I work at the San Diego Rescue Mission and we love to have cards for the guests in our emergency shelter. It makes a difference and brings a little hope.
love these cards and ways to use all the scraps!!
Those quilt cards are beautiful!!!
I always watch the cards from scraps videos. I also have invested in the cover dies that help me use up scraps like hearts, quilt dies, grid squares dies, and diagonal strips cover dies. These type of dies also tone down loud designs by cutting them into smaller pieces, and help blend prints that I don't want to use into a larger background. I always reach for these cover dies at the end of a pad, or when I am left with 12 x 12 pages that do not lend themselves to cards. I found cover dies a good return on the investment since I use them somewhere for every paper pad. Thanks for the great ideas here.
My favorite is the Christmas card. Lovely!
Love these cards from paper scraps!!! You've inspired me! I'm going to go create some fun!!!
I love scraps! I really hope this video helps people waste less. You can also save scraps for kids at kindergarten to play with or an artist friend (like me) who does art journaling or collage! All of those bits would fit in my art!
💛🧡💜💙💚💖❤
Love that quilt card
beautiful set of cards i do like that patchwork die x
Great job!! I never throw scraps away and this really inspired me to use them up! TFS!!
Great way to use scraps. Tfs
Love all of your cards Kristine
Very nice cars, thanks for sharing,cause we all have leftover scraps!
13 additional cards from scraps, I think that’s a pretty recycling project. Pretty cards, I really like that heart die set. Hugs and happy new year.
This couldn't have popped up in a more timely manner. I have been making book markers that have left me with scraps I normally wouldn't use on a card. But now Instead of storing or trashing them, I can make some cards out of them. Thanks for taking the time to do this video. Stay healthy and happy my friend!
I just found you and so glad I did. Since I do not do paper crafts for sale, I do not use the same brand of paper in each craft...I just use what I have. What you have done it absolutely fantastic. I love it. Keep up with the good ideas.
I certainly mix & match from all sources intermixed even if I am selling at craft fairs 😂🤣😂🤣😂.
I like this
Work very much. I love paper!!
The best things in life are pink! So was it just coincidence that I was wearing pink when I found this video? LOL This was such a fun idea to use scraps. I love it and will try it soon!
@@laurahartman7997 Aw, thanks so much! Pink is ALWAYS a good color choice! 🩷
Good use of “scraps”. You are so talented.
Fantastic ideas! Love using up my scraps. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for great ideas. You're so talented!
Such beautiful cards from your scraps!❤
This might be one of my favorites! Please do this again!
Hello friend love this ideas 💡🙂👍👍👍
This is the best Use Up Your Scraps-video I have ever seen. And I have seen quite a lot. Thank you for your effort, this was a great inspiration!
I would say that you met your challenge...and then some! As always, LOVE your quilt block cards. (I need that die!!!)
All the cards are so wonderful but I think the very last one was my favorite with the blue flowers🧡🧡🧡
Thank for sharing your creativity 💖
I am so impressed by the pretty cards you made with the scraps. You are such an inspiration.
So smart & creative!❤
ooooh these came out gorgeous. see you always see something that I wouldn't have. thank you for sharing this with us. Have a great rest of the day. Hugs from maple Grove Minnesota
two thumbs up- very fun, Kristie
Very well done!! Thank you for sharing.
Love those quilt cards the best.
We usually donate scraps that we don't use to a pre-k class especially shapes and numbers. They love all the pretty colors.
Thank you for the ideas. I love videos using scrap, heaven forbid I need all I can get. Lol! I'm one of those that can't throw them out. Love the quilt die! Keep up showing us how to use scraps. For that I have to subscribe! 😊
Such wonderful designs and cards ! Thank you Kristie !!!!
You done an Amazing job!!
All your cards are Beautiful!!
Thanks for sharing
Amazing how the quilt cards turned out. Great inspiration - thanks!
When you first announced you'd save your scraps for all of 2021 to use in cards at the end of the year I could not imagine how you could make them work. There were so many styles I thought there was no way you could make them attractive. I am happy to say you proved me wrong, of course. LOL You are so creative and I very much appreciate all the work you do to film your videos. I enjoy watching each one of them and always learn something new from you. Best wishes for good health and happiness in 2022.
Kristie, I was waiting to see what you were going to do with those scraps, and you certainly didn't disappoint! WOW! You are truly gifted. I can't imagine trying to get through 37 paper pads so thank you for all that you do.
Yes, thank you!
This was so much fun, and the cards are gorgeous!
Wow!!! Great job on using up those scraps!!!
I think they are beautiful!
Those are all fantastic. I really, really love the quilt cards!
Kristie-
I don't often comment but watch often. These were awesome ideas & I would've had no clue what to do with them as well. Thanks for the ideas!
I've bought several of the dies you've used including the MFT quilt one in this video.
I don't blame you for not deciding on whether or not to do the scraps again.
Thanks again. Happy New Year!
These are amazing. I love watching your videos. You make it all look so easy.
This is so great. I love cards with scraps. You really did a great job making beautiful cards!
These are great! I love scrap cards. You really brought together the varied patterns and colors well.
Amazing!!! Thank you for doing this! Really shows how we can always stretch our supplies!
I’m impressed. They are all beautiful.
Love these ideas and your scrap box! :)
Really cute cards! As always, love to see your art! Thanks for sharing what you do!
Wow! Gorgeous!
I loved this!!! Such a good idea
Love the designs and use of scraps ! Well done !
Love this idea, such gorgeous cards!
I love your quilt cards!
The first one is quite striking!
Those quilt coverup cards are my absolute favorite! So have such an eye for color and pattern mixing. Thank you for all the inspiration!!
Wow, that box of scraps would have scared me to death. You turned that into really great cards, bravo! TFS
Wonderful idea for your left overs, giving them to retirement homes. I used to give all my cards to the church fetes & our local charity. Since COVID I’ve been left with a pile of cards, I’m not sure what to do with them.
That is just amazing. Wow awesome.
These are great! Another lovely and inspiring video.
I like to make "tiny notes" or "lunchbox cards" with my scraps. They are usually 3x3 or 2x3 cards that I tuck into my kid's lunches or backpacks, or leave in random places for my hubby to find.
I will also use them to make gift tags for all occasions.
My mother used to leave me little notes in my lunch boxes as well. I am 50 now, and last week I found one of those notes I used as a bookmark in a very old book of mine. That touched me so deeply and brought back so many memories… Your kids are lucky to have a mom like you!
Love that want to do the same for my future family.
❤
Awesome-what a good idea. I thought of putting some near the phone (yup, we’re that old fashioned) for messages; like a little booklet. ❤
Excellent use of what you call scraps, beautiful!
Your amazing Kristie. They are beautiful.
I LOVE THIS!! I ADORE CARDS MADE WITH SCRAPS!! YOU DID A GREAT JOB!!
You're so creative Kristy x
You amaze me! All of the cards are great ❤️
That was so much fun! I remember when you announced the scrap box project and here we are a year later enjoying the 13 beautiful cards already! How time flies! They turned out so sweet and I loved watching the process. I donate to Cards For Kindness regularly and so much inspiration for those cards comes from your wonderful videos. Happy New Year and thank you for taking us along on the scrap journey! ❤️🤍💙
I can’t imagine not mixing & matching all my papers lol 😂. Whether I’m selling it or not! I’m a seamstress so of course I’m used to using up what I have.
I love your cards that you made from your scraps & also that you donate cards! What a lovely gesture 🥰
Love the cards with all your left overs! Great job 😃
Beautiful cards. It does help to have the right dies to use up your scraps. My fave has to be the patchwork quilt ones.
Love your ideas.
These are absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!
Beautiful cards and ideas for scraps!! Very interesting and inspirational.
Kristi you make scraps look GOOOOD‼️💞‼️
These are great! You are a genius 😃
Kristie, these are beautiful cards! Great ideas!
I love what you did with the scraps. the cards are great.
Wow, you are so talented! Thank you for sharing, they are all so pretty.
Beautiful, my favorite ones are the quilt cards...You did a great job using those scraps!
Love these cards. Great way to use scraps! I need to get busy with all my scraps.
You are amazing! Truly!! My favorite was the mostly doodle bug quilt card! I had so much fun watching this video. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
love love the quilt card
You are a creative genius!
These cards came out beautifully!
Congratulations on using those leftover scraps! The cards were great. Sigh, now I should check mine and probably toss out most of them...less stress that way!
Such a clever girl! Love what you did with simple scraps. Think I'm gonna start saving all the scraps I usually toss and try this next year. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks, Kristie, that was fun! My favorite part of your videos is the end, seeing what you do with the scraps, and this was extra fun. It was informative watching you sort through and make piles. The cards all turned out beautiful. My favorites were the red and black quilt square and the Halloween-themed heart card.
Love your demo's they are stunning.
Amazing how you coordinated the different papers and came up with beautiful cards. I have been waiting to see how this would come about and have to say that you are genius. That was quite a feat and you delivered wonderfully. Thank you.
