Scrap That "Tree"

We all have awesome scraps we hate to throw out~ this is a great project use those leftovers to Scrap That Tree!
Use several different patterns or any reversible papers. I used CTMH Jingle Collection Creative Basics, added some wire for garland and Clear Sparkles (they are graduated sizes). The tree becomes an embellishment for the page.

Add your main photo mat, smaller photo or journaling areas, and a title!

You could even base the tree on cardstock, trim around the edges, add ribbon and make an ornament!

"Scrap" Easter Eggs


Bust out your scraps! Yes all of these are made from scraps! I think they are a blast to make!
I originally punched out an oval and was planning to simply decorate a few eggs for some cards, but then the creative mode kicked in. I drew an egg holder for a template. Then I got crazed~ lol


You can punch holes in the eggs to look like polka dots, or use the circles for eyes or cheeks!

Add feathers or yarns for the hair, waxy flax for whiskers, beads or punches for eyes and nose (markers and color pencils work also!), cut some squares for the beak... and I have become addicted! lol
You can see that 1-2 or 3 would be adorable on a card, tag, scrapbook page, napkin ring or many other items! Use plain cardstock and ink as I did the chicken, or use colored cardstock and printed papers~ the sky is the limit here!
