I am known for saving just about everything, but I do use my scraps. It helps that I tend to work small, making cards, ATCs, collages, etc. My friend Jaclyn, who also teaches classes with Cre8Joy Workshops, is a scrapbooker and doesn't save alot of her scraps. I give her a hard time about it and recently, after prepping kits for a layout class, she handed me all her little scrap pieces. I thought I would challenge myself to see what I could do with these bits and pieces. And here is the result - TEN cards from scraps! Any patterned pieces in the following cards were the scraps. Of course I had to add the card bases, stamps, inks, and assorted embellishments.
So here you go, Jaclyn! When I finished, I had two tiny bits that I did actually throw away!

This is just fabulous Susan! I too am a scrap paper saver and love what you did with these. I especially like the card with the paper flowers...so creative!!
Yes, I save my scraps too. I have a rolling file cart that has large scrap paper on top and scraps by color on the bottom. They are easy to get to so I do use them all the time.
Your cards look beautiful!
