Got Scraps?

Do you have a big pile of scraps? Have a couple of teeny-weeny pieces of that beautiful paper you can't let go off? We have the project for you! You can create a beautiful collage with your scraps and a shape punch. This idea was inspired by Ali Edwards. Gina worked on this project and actually made 3 different types. First she started with two 8x10 pieces, one with a heart punch and the other with a round scalloped punch. See photos above.
She liked how these turned out so she decided to create a bigger project. She used a square punch and went through all her old scraps and a couple newer pieces of paper. She adhered them down with runner, and placed the page inside a 12x12 Bare Elements tray that she had spray painted black. We are very happy with the final look. Gina said "I forgot how many little scraps of awesome paper that I had! This was a perfect project to use up all those extras, and remisnicsce with that old paper :)" Check out her blog for more photos.
