    When I saw your title for this project - How to use up all your white scraps of paper - it felt as if you had the ability to observe clearly not only inside my art studio, but inside my BRAIN!!, inside the excessive keeping of interesting shapes and colors and images - you knew, you understood, you assessed without judgment and made great positive decisions and supportive suggestions. You are AMAZING! You are like the friend I've never met! Thank you Thank you Thank you. I only wish that you lived around the corner and could come over for a cup of coffee or tea and talk about Art Supplies!! LOVED "Using up White Scraps". Thanks again.

    OMGosh, that is just the sweetest comment ever!! Thank you so much for that! I honestly think that this is a problem so many of us have. I never want to throw out my scraps but they sure do pile up as you saw! And if you lived around the corner, I would definitely be over for a cup of coffee! Super big thanks again for making my day!! 🤗❤️❤️

    I had just stacked a bunch of white cut-offs, asking “why am I saving more of these”? I always feel so guilty throwing them in the trash. The first thing I saw when I opened KZread was this video. It was the photo of the box of white paper that made me click. What did I discover, a new She-ro named Karen. I will be forever grateful to you for sharing this genius idea. Thank you so much. I’ve become a subbie so I can see what other great ideas you can send my way. 👏🏽💜🌟

    Thank you so much Jacqui! The gilding polishes really are fun and very shiny. I have to confess that my white scrap box, while quite depleted, still has a lot of scraps left in it. 🙄. But I plan on doing these colouring techniques more often, and either making cards as I did in the video, or just using the coloured pieces for die cutting and sentiments or sentiment strips. I think the white scraps is a perennial problem with card making. 😂💕💕

    I saw that box of scraps at the beginning and immediately thought what beautiful playful, impromptu freedom it would be to use these scraps on a large canvas, randomly gluing them and then perhaps adding in textures and colors like you’ve done, but in large format! Sometimes it’s a lot of pressure when staring at a new canvas, but this would be so freeing to just start collaging and seeing where shapes take place. Your cards are absolutely lovely !!! Very talented 🎉❤

    Karen, what great cards! Such inspiration! I need to round up some of my numerous white scraps and try your technique! I really love that that all the cards turn out different, and each and every one is so original. No cookie cutter cards here! I can’t stand to throw away scraps, white or colored, or patterned, so I have tons of scraps. This was very helpful. Perhaps you can do another video showing using patterned paper scraps, and colored scraps. This is the first time I have discovered you. You do great videos, with everything at hand….no having to run into another room to get something you’ve forgotten, or looking for something you can’t find. I imagine you voice-over and edit. I so much appreciate the extra time that takes. I also appreciate that you don’t waste time chatting and greeting people, as so many KZreadrs do! Thank you for a quality video, with your great video voice! I immediately subscribed!
