Hello, today, I'm sharing a fun tutorial. La-La Land Crafts has so many amazing paper pads! But what if you have a bunch of scraps and none of them are big enough to make a full-sized card? Well, you can use them up by making Gift Enclosures! This cute little 3x3 mini cards are the perfect way to use up your scraps!
You will need:
First, you'll want to collect your scraps. I'm using a bunch of scraps from the Hello Life Paper Pack. This is one of my absolute FAVORITE paper packs and I have used up all of my full-sized sheets, but I have a ton of scraps that I'm going to use for my project today.
Step#1: Trim white heavy-weight card stock into 3x3 card bases. You can score them so that they are top fold or side fold. Both ways are cute!
Step #2: Find your larger scraps and trim them into squares that are 2.75x2.75. These will be layered on top of your card bases.
Step #3: Use your Scalloped Squares Die to cut out some white card stock. I used the second-to-smallest size in the set. Then use the Double Stitched Squares Die to cut some patterned paper. Again, I used the second-to-smallest size in the set.
Step #4: Stamp, color, and fussy cut your image. I'm using the Squeeze The Day Clear Stamp Set. (Copic colors listed below)
Step #5: Use foam tape to adhere the layers together. Because these are very small, I like to add lots of dimension to add interest.
Step #6: Adhere the whole thing to the top of your card base and add your sentiment.
Step #7: Add die cuts and use your scraps. Try to choose patterns that are more neutral so that your eye can focus when you layer it all together.
Copic Colors:
Mice: W0, W1, W3, W5, R21
Yellow: Y23, Y26
Blue: BG10, BG11, BG72
Pink: RV10, RV21
Thanks so much for stopping by! I can't wait to see what you make with your scraps!
