    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

    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.

    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.

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.
