Dearest Senior Susie - I'm also a cardmaking senior, and I often scan UA-cam videos for ways to use up our many different sizes of scrap papers! However, your tutorial above along with your Fabulous & Free PDF offer is a Spectacular creative idea!! While most of us create our cardmaking art when our 'mojo' is at high levels, there are many times when we might be thinking, 'What can I do differently'? Alas, that will no longer be the case, as I now have my own Secret Weapon binder!! Even though this video is 2 years old, I wonder how many have not taken advantage of your genius idea and created their binders?! C'mon, Paper Artisans - show us your 'Secret Weapon' cards!! Many thanks and God's blessings for your superb generosity and kindness!!
Hi Carol - I love mine and pull it out frequently. Those card sketches were not my design. They were part of Operation Write Home, which I believe started as a way to send cards to overseas service men and women so they would have cards to send back home. I don't think OWH is still active, but I could definitely be wrong about that. Have a wonderful week!
@@SeniorSusieStamps - I LOVE my own Binder full of inspirations!! I also take cell phone snapshots of any cards I make/send and make sure to always die-cut 'extras so I can easily 'duplicate' a previous 'make'!! Again, I wonderfully appreciate your PDF offer, and I'm so happy that UA-cam doesn't remove 'older' videos that are like precious, golden gems!!
Please don't stop making videos using up your scraps! You have no idea how much it has helped me and also making embellishments from scraps is such a great idea. Now I won't be wasting so much unused papers that otherwise ends up in the garbage.
Hi Monica - Welcome to My Channel! There are all kinds of great scrap videos on this playlist - including some of my favorite crafters as well as Senior Susie Stamps. Hope it helps you! Come back soon!! ua-cam.com/play/PL3czOqB_FoIt5pVpQgdOqrhhIPOT31nKU.html
How refreshing. I never understand when I am asked to like before I’ve even seen the video. Love the way you are using your scraps to make beautiful cards.
Hey Pinky - I know, what's that all about anyway? We all pretty much understand the like/subscribe drill by now... Glad you liked the cards! Come back soon!!
Hi Julia! I know that this video is from several months ago, however, I have just discovered your channel and I have been binge watching your channel starting from your oldest and working my way to the most recent. I am really enjoying your channel and all of the tips and inspiration you share. Thank you so much for that!

I do cringe at some of the older videos, but the basic info is there eventho sometimes the presentation falls a bit short.

Welcome to the channel and come back soon! Julia
Oh my goodness, I think you've just saved my sanity. I just don't have a head to use scraps, but I've saved up so many of them just in case I finally figured it out. Thank you so much!
Hi Elsie - I know I do that too. You rock along using a great tool, and then all of a sudden it's gathering dust somewhere - now where did I put that?! LOL!!
You are so welcome. Those were originally published for the Operation Write Home program. Not my creation. But they are a wonderful resource for all of us!
Just found you.🙂. Love this series! I have those layout templates, but never in a hundred years would I have thought to use them for scrap ideas. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing! Now to find the rest of the series.
Hi Valerie - I think they make utilizing scraps more fun sometimes. It's like hide and seek hunting for just the right pattern to use those pesky scraps. There is lots of content on the channel to back watch if you like. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA time) - so come back soon!
I absolutely love this video! I am looking forward to seeing more scrappy cards. I laughed out loud at you saying "These little ones will go in the trash!" Sometimes it is just time to let some of them go.
Just discovered your channel about a week ago and have been so inspired by your videos! Thank you-am learning new techniques and ideas for card making using the (many:) items I already have without feeling like I need anything new. You are so talented!
Oh Shel - I love hearing you are using your stash and not feeling pushed to purchase more supplies. There is a lot of content on the channel and some great ideas - so back watch to your heart's content! I am in the middle of a move, so new content is sporadic at best. But, my new - interim - studio is coming along! Come back soon and feel very Welcome - I'm glad you're here!
I ❤️the way you use your scraps!! I store my scraps in the cardboard trays I buy w/my dogs veggies. I sort by color. I’ve been stamping card making since I was a teen. I’ve been teaching 30+ yrs. I also did the demo cards for major stamp companies like PSX, Rubber Stampede. I’m most excited about printing out your card layouts w/the measurements. Thank You so VERY much for sharing. Amy Jones Apex NC
Hi Amy - It sounds like you are very organized! I think you just have to be in this hobby, in order to find things. Those card sketches were originally posted from OWH (Operation Write Home) you probably remember them. I use mine a lot and am glad you like them too!
I have used a 10SecondBowmaker for years and absolutely love it. There is a great bow video on their website to get you started - ua-cam.com/video/7wxItj4bdYA/v-deo.html
I find each pile of scraps has a bit of a mind of their own. Some are much easier to work with. Start there!! Perhaps use the card sketches in reverse. Pick a sketch you like and go look for the scraps to fit. I do both! Mainly - enjoy the process!!
I have done some destash buying myself, especially in the beginning when I was building studio inventory. There can be a lot of bang for your buck there!! Talk soon!!
@@SeniorSusieStamps Yeah I have copious amounts of paper pads that I never touch because I have three file boxes of scraps. Still, can't help myself from acquiring more scraps.
That's awesome! Welocme to My Channel! There is a lot of content here to back watch if you are interested. And I try to put out a new video Sunday afternoon (USA time) - so, Come Back Soon!!
This was very helpful. I don't make any 2 cards exactly the same and love using my imagination, so I thought templates would cramp my style. My last contribution to a card campaign I found I was getting a little burned out. I can see these would have been very helpful. You made it very clear how you can still personalize these and add your own touches. Loved your cards.
Oh I'm so glad this was helpful. I find card sketches very helpful in using up scraps. I hate to throw anything out. And I so understand the burnout!!! It happens to all of us at some point.
Thanks D! I appreciate your comment. Those OWH sketches are my favorite for sure because they have all the measurements. I like to use them as a starting point, especially when my mojo has gone a walkin'!
Thank you so very much for this wonderful resource! I printed the layouts right away and you gave me some great ideas on using my copious amount of scraps.
Glad it was helpful Donna - There are several different card sketch lists, I just happen to like this one because it has the measurements. I keep mine in a notebook in sheet protectors. Very handy!!
I have just found you on ytube. I love your cards and I have lots of scrap DSP. So I will be making a lot of cards using the templates you told me about on pintrest. Thank you very much. 🇦🇺🐞
Have fun! You can find those OWH card sketch templates here but you may have to copy/paste to your browser. sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
I keep that little jig tucked under the pad on my work desk and pull it out all the time. It's wonderful for cutting stips out of those pesky scraps we all have!
I found your link for the card sketches! Thank you! These will be helpful for me to leading card making at our local small town Art Gallery. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.🎉😊
Really I can't take any credit for those except sharing the link. Operation Write Home sketches are available to anyone using that link. I am just happy they are so easy to print and have available in a notebook!
thanks for the OWH reminder. I had printed these out several years ago. I moved and forgot I had them still packed away. Your videos are so helpful. You have a new fan. blessings Patti
Hi Patti and Welcome to My Channel!! Isn't it funny how you can forget you have those card sketches? I did that same thing. And then all of a sudden they are front and center again. So very helpful with scraps especially the OWH with the measurements.
LOL - Sometimes when I pull a scrap pack out my brain goes on vacation! And my mojo follows it ! The only way I can find a starting point is to grab my sketches book and start the hunt.
@@SeniorSusieStamps I get inspired by videos, but I have also bought some dies that work really well on scraps. In addition to that I have containers of things like die cuts with sentiments stamped on them, die cut flowers... etc. I love what you said about not being afraid of cutting into a whole sheet of paper to use your scraps.
It sounds like you have a great plan for using up some of those pesky scraps. I store mine with the parent pack so I can pull a coordinated sheet easily and use them. Otherwise, hunting for just the right color match doesn't work well for me.
Love scrap videos. Those little small scraps I like to use where you write your return address. Would be nice to use the snowflake on the envelope, too. Very pretty cards.
Hi Christine! I find using sketches to be very helpful especially these OWH sketches with the measurements. I just finished another video yesterday using Halloween scraps and sketches, if you are interested - ua-cam.com/video/Jyp1E0BcuPg/v-deo.html
I’m so happy I found your channel. I’ve seen a couple of the using scraps videos, and I’m so impressed with the wonderful cards you’ve created. I’ll be bingeing them all now and seeing what I can create. Thanks for sharing the OWH sketches.
That's wonderful! I'm so glad you're here!! I am in the process of moving, so new videos are hit and miss at the moment. But there is some great content to back watch on the channel in the mean time.
You are so organized, Julia. Keeping the card layouts in the binder gives you a quick overview so you can pick the right one. I think snowflakes on the purple cards would look good. My fav card is the lasts one - I love scenes! ❤️🇨🇦
Hi Mary-Lynn - Yes I find I use them much more often when I can have them right next to whatever I am working on. They are great layout inspiration!! Isn't that deer in the woods wonderful? Paperwishes.com Snowfall paper in 6x6 size
Hi Lori - Welcome to My Channel!! There is a studio tour that may help you see how I organize things, here is a link - ua-cam.com/video/i7N4ypv2Zsk/v-deo.html And there is a bow making video here - ua-cam.com/video/BI70EX3AwI8/v-deo.html And another bow making video here - ua-cam.com/video/cWVSGl4Bed0/v-deo.html There is lots of content on the channel if you want to go back watch, and I try to put out a new video out every Sunday afternoon (USA time) - So, Come Back Soon!!
This video is so much fun and your "secret weapon" is a keeper! I have so much trouble with layouts, so I'm very excited to use them! Love this series and yes! Please show us your organization! I keep thinking I've organized well and then I still can't find what I need! LOL Thanks for all you do, Julia!
Hi Claudia Rose! I love these card sketches especially for scraps. You can find a sketch for any size scrap and build a card around it. I'll be showing my desk next week. So Come Back Soon!!
Where does a person buy the card sketches? I found your channel last night and and just couldn’t quit watching, I found your using scraps so fascinating. I have always donated my scraps to various family members or friends, even to some churches for the kinds and I live just down the street a block from an elementary school, the kindergarten teachers like getting them too. Thank you for such interesting videos. I’m sure I have a lot of your videos to watch so I can catch up to your recents. Please keep making them.
Hi Bettye - Thanks for the info on donating. Welcome to My Channel I am so glad you are here!! These are the card sketches I like the best, because they have measurements - sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
Welcome Mary - Glad you found My Channel. There is lots of content already on the channel to back watch if you are interested and have some time. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoons (USA time) - So, Come Back Soon!!
Welcome! There is lots of content available to watch on the channel. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoons (USA time). So - Come Back Soon!
Hi Cecilia - and Welcome to My Channel!! I am doing a Fall Scrap series on Thursdays so there are several more videos ready for you to watch. If you are interested here is the next one - ua-cam.com/video/nc_A8Jp3-Fc/v-deo.html
I only found you a while ago and have enjoyed everyone of your videos. I have so many scraps and because of you I am getting to use them. Thank you so much for sharing. I live in Australia ❤
Hi Julia!! I LOVE having card layouts! It makes creating cards and journal covers sooo easy!! I can’t choose a favorite-I love all your cards! Do you use premade bases, or what do you use to create your bases? I love that you’re doing a scrap series! Will you be making any tags and ephemera, or just cards? Whatever you make, I’ll be here to watch and learn!!! Hugs, Tina 💗🌷
Hi Tina - I have some premade bases in larger sizes. But all the A2 and minislimline cards I cut myself. I think tags and ephemera are all part of using scraps so I suspect we will be looking into that area as well. I have really learned to love scraps in this past year, and rarely cut a full sheet of paper because I have had so many. Thanks for your words of encouragement! Julia
I love this!! I have a ton of scraps that I eighter donate to preschool or give to library but I will be making more cards following your tutorials..thank you so much!!
Hi Linda and Welcome to My Channel!! I am delighted to know you donate your scraps! They are so useful for the little ones to play with and start enjoying our form of art. There are several other "Scrap" tutorials on the channel if you want to see some "Back Issues". Talk soon . . .
Hi there Julia... 😀I have to laugh, as I found your secret weapon rather overwhelming with literally hundreds of card layouts... WOW! Julia, I can see that this would be extremely helpful for you, (and other crafter's) as you make so many cards throughout the year. I can see that this would be an excellent way to plan, and use up all those cardstock scraps. I am looking forward to seeing more videos in this series about using up all those scraps, and especially how to store them. I must confess that I have never made a card using a layout or a plan. What I do, and I might have mentioned this before I gather all my card elements together on my desk, and then start playing with them to find a working layout for the card that I am making. Sometimes the card elements are sitting on my desk, because I am waiting for my paintings etc... to dry, as that is what is happening with a card that I am making at the moment. Julia my dear... I didn't quite hear what you said at 27.36 in this video?!?! 🤣🤣🤣 Oh yes please Julia... I would love to see your new organisation area on your desk, as I am always looking for ideas to make my space more useful and productive. I pray that you have a wonderful day creating in your beautiful craft studio. Blessings, love and hugs from your Aussie friend Gloria. 🥰☕🍰💐💖💝💕 P.S - If you make a boo boo... hide it with a snow flake! LOL...that is precious, and too funny!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Gloria - I never used to use card sketches either. But eventually you do get a little brain freeze when using scraps. And I think it's always a good option for a jumping off point. Anything to stimulate the creative juices when you are in a slump. And dontcha know I debated over those 2 pieces. But sometimes it's just OK to throw the last scrap out! Stay tuned for the storage ideas they are coming! And I hope you have a fabulous week my Aussie Friend!! So glad I made you laugh!! Julia
Hi Connie and Welcome to My Channel! I ususally try to put out 2 videos a week, so there is a lot for you to check out already. There currently is a Scrap Card series on Thursday which has been a lot of fun! And if you are interested - there is also a facebook page facebook.com/seniorsusiestamps/ So, Come Back Soon!
Good morning Julia! I found your video while o was browsing UA-cam and I am so glad I start watching! Your video using scraps is a great idea, I am trying to use them all. Thank you for sharing the pdf file! I am looking forward to the series. Your cards are amazing, it always amazes me how a talented card maker can get a simple template and create beautiful art!
Bless You Paulistana! I never feel like a talented card maker. Sometimes I get to my craft desk and ask the Studio what's next?! Other times I am full steam ahead. So, you never really know what you'll find here, but it's usually fun!! So, Come Back Soon!!
Hi Lisa - You are in luck there are lots of scrap card ideas on My Channel - both my videos and some of my favorite UA-camrs can be found in my playlist - ua-cam.com/play/PL3czOqB_FoIt5pVpQgdOqrhhIPOT31nKU.html
Hi Lavern and Welcome to my Channel! There is a lot of good content already on the channel if you care to backwatch some. I am in the middle of a major move so new content is a bit sporadic. But I will be back again soon!
I am thrilled having all of these sketches! It was taking me forever and a day to find decent sketches and then try to remember where i found them. Thanks for providing the link. I cant image how fast I’m going to be getting through scraps now. ❤
Hi Beth and Welcome to My Channel! I love using these for scraps. And there are a couple of Valentine card videos using more sketches on the channel now too. Here is the link for one - ua-cam.com/video/AOUgr2ipPlk/v-deo.html
Thanks Maureen - I always try to get mine started in July and I am already running behind this year. First of Sept I will switch off to Halloween cards for the nursing home and senior center. Then a few Fall/Autumn cards and right back to Christmas. That's the way it goes around here!
Hi Deborah - Yippee Skippie!! There is lots of content alread on the channel to go back watch if you like. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA time). So, Come Back Soon!!
When I download card patterns for my binder, I size them to A2 size, but use cm rather than inches since this uses less paper. Then I can measure the elements in the card with my ruler and translate that into inches. You can also measure the element across in inches and then divide it by the card width or length in total. It's a lot easier to measure the card elements than it is to explain it, actually! Love videos about scraps because I have so many of them!
Hi Bernice - I am not as computer savvy as you! LOL I'm lucky to be able to figure out how to get them printed sometimes. Will keep this in mind if I ever download sketches again tho. Thanks for the great tip!!
Hello Julia. Thank you for doing this new series! I think we all need help with using up our scraps. Do show your new organisation spot! I am hoping to use up scraps on making embellishments and tags too soon. I think I have made most of my Christmas cards for the past 3 years now with using scraps. I still have too many! So I thought making up into embellishments or tags might eliminate a few by layering up to use up! 😂
Hi Kaye - You are so right about layering up! And I love making embellishments especially if there is a stamped element. You can use them on all kinds of scrap cards. It has been a long time since I cut into a full sheet of designer paper. I keep thinking that day is right around the corner, and then I find some more scraps. LOL!!
Hi Debby and Welcome to My Channel. There is a lot of content already available here if you want to watch some back issues. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA) so Come Back Soon!!
I'm so glad you got some benefit from this video! The card sketches are from OWH (Operation Write Home) and here is a link - sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
I use OWH too and I also have all their sketches like you do. Mine are also in a binder and I use the sketches often especially when I'm trying to use scraps. I especially love Bonus sketch 10 for scraps! I have been trying to find the link (as my subscribers often ask) for the sketches and could never find it. Thanks for sharing that. I will now direct them to your link! Happy new year!
Happy New Year to you as well! I really like these sketches for beginner card makers - because the measurements are right there. And you just can't beat a notebook for them!!
This is my first time on your channel and I really enjoyed watching you create these beautiful cards. I am totally into using scraps so I am grateful for all of your wonderful tips and techniques. The snowflake card was my favorite but they were all very pretty. Looking forward to more in this series. 😍
Hi Elaine and Welcome to My Channel! I am so glad you found my tips helpful! Mission Accomplished!! I did a scrap series earlier this year that you might like to look at also - ua-cam.com/video/s4E9fqD_1cI/v-deo.html
Hi Bonnie - It should have been in the description. I'll go check that. But here is a link for you to find the download. sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
LOL Lindsey you crack me up! I wear the crown very lightly believe me. But I can say this, I use my paper down to the bare nubs, and keep finding little useable bits here and there. Glad you are in for this series I think it will be a good one. (Hope, hope, hope)
It is in the description but here is a link to take you there. I like the OWH sketches because they have the dimensions and are a great starting point for cards. sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
That really wasn't purple it was a dark blue and lighter blue. But the blues were an unusual color of blue so it may well show up as purple on the screen.
Beautiful cards. I've made 310 so far this year and other than bases and white/vanilla card fronts, the whole bunch came from my "scrap" folders. I have enough scraps left to do another 310, but that's another year. I'm tired.
Goodness! I guess you are tired!! 🤩I think you are a Rockstar!! Scraps are a way of life in my studio. And I may be able to get back to cutting full sheets sometime in 2023, not sure yet tho! Thank you for your comment and Welcome to My Channel. I can't see your pic very well - is it a Springer Spaniel by chance?

I am really enjoying your channel and all of the tips and inspiration you share. Thank you so much for that! I especially LOVE that you use what you have and are not sharing a ton of all the "latest and greatest" of new releases from all the companies on the market. It can get really discouraging to be bombarded with an influx of new products (that I can't afford nor have the space to store)
I have noticed that in several of your videos that you use Paper Wishes/HOTP products. I am a big fan of that company and their products. They (mostly Paulette) are the main reason I got into paper crafting. Our mail carrier ACCIDENTALLY delivered a Paper Wishes Catalog to my house by mistake. It was address to someone else.

I've had an OWH sketch notebook since 2012 when I was sending cards to Sandy, but often forget to pull it out. Thanks for the reminder!

There is lots of content on the channel to back watch if you like. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA time) - so come back soon!
so cute im going to try to continue learning cardmaing at 74 yrs young thxs so much for inspiring me
Good for You Glenda! I plan to be making cards for years myself!!
I liked the last card with the deer. One of the things I have learned from watching your channel is to use tweezers!!
Oh gosh, Susan - I am completely lost without mine. My fingers are not nimble anymore and it's ugly when I don't use them!! LOL
I absolutely love this video! I am looking forward to seeing more scrappy cards.
I laughed out loud at you saying "These little ones will go in the trash!" Sometimes it is just time to let some of them go.
Hi Sybil - I had a lot of fun making this one. These card sketches are so very helpful! And yes those 2 little bits went in the bin!!
Just discovered your channel about a week ago and have been so inspired by your videos! Thank you-am learning new techniques and ideas for card making using the (many:) items I already have without feeling like I need anything new. You are so talented!
Oh Shel - I love hearing you are using your stash and not feeling pushed to purchase more supplies. There is a lot of content on the channel and some great ideas - so back watch to your heart's content! I am in the middle of a move, so new content is sporadic at best. But, my new - interim - studio is coming along! Come back soon and feel very Welcome - I'm glad you're here!
I ❤️the way you use your scraps!! I store my scraps in the cardboard trays I buy w/my dogs veggies. I sort by color. I’ve been stamping card making since I was a teen. I’ve been teaching 30+ yrs. I also did the demo cards for major stamp companies like PSX, Rubber Stampede. I’m most excited about printing out your card layouts w/the measurements. Thank You so VERY much for sharing.
Amy Jones Apex NC
Hi Amy - It sounds like you are very organized! I think you just have to be in this hobby, in order to find things. Those card sketches were originally posted from OWH (Operation Write Home) you probably remember them. I use mine a lot and am glad you like them too!
@SeniorSusieStamps Do you know where I can get them? Thank😮 you
I’m one who would like a demo on the bow tying. Love all your wonderful scrap tuts.
I have used a 10SecondBowmaker for years and absolutely love it. There is a great bow video on their website to get you started - ua-cam.com/video/7wxItj4bdYA/v-deo.html
I can watch you all day every day! I love your cards!
Awwww Andrea - thank you!
Beautiful cards!!! Looking forward to the other videos in this series! And YES, I would like to see your new organizational spot!
Hi Kathleen and Thank You! I will try to include my desk next week. It has really made a difference for me since bringing out all my Christmas stuff!!
@@SeniorSusieStamps: I have so enjoyed your card making for quite a while. Thank you for your help. I have learned a lot from you.
I have several mountains of scraps. Not sure if I would do as good a job as you but I'll give it a good try. Many thanks.
I find each pile of scraps has a bit of a mind of their own. Some are much easier to work with. Start there!! Perhaps use the card sketches in reverse. Pick a sketch you like and go look for the scraps to fit. I do both! Mainly - enjoy the process!!
I have a weird thing for scraps. I actually buy destashes of scraps so I'll never come close to using them up. Love your cards Julia. Very inspiring.
I have done some destash buying myself, especially in the beginning when I was building studio inventory. There can be a lot of bang for your buck there!! Talk soon!!
@@SeniorSusieStamps Yeah I have copious amounts of paper pads that I never touch because I have three file boxes of scraps. Still, can't help myself from acquiring more scraps.
I just happened to find your channel while scrolling through UA-cam, Thank you for the sketches and started following you.
That's awesome! Welocme to My Channel! There is a lot of content here to back watch if you are interested. And I try to put out a new video Sunday afternoon (USA time) - so, Come Back Soon!!
This was very helpful. I don't make any 2 cards exactly the same and love using my imagination, so I thought templates would cramp my style. My last contribution to a card campaign I found I was getting a little burned out. I can see these would have been very helpful. You made it very clear how you can still personalize these and add your own touches. Loved your cards.
Oh I'm so glad this was helpful. I find card sketches very helpful in using up scraps. I hate to throw anything out. And I so understand the burnout!!! It happens to all of us at some point.
Beautiful cards, I try to use up scraps as I go but still have some from other projects. Keep on using scraps.
They are always available aren't they??!!
I love using scraps! ❤ Great cards and I adore the sketches
Thank you Hilary and I am glad you found the facebook page as well! Come back soon!!
Just found you today, I appreciate the PDFs and your scraps videos. I have tons of scraps, about 10 years worth lol.
Hi Ruth and Welcome to My Channel! 10 years worth huh?! It's crazy how many you can accumulate. Do you mind me asking how you store your scraps?
Thank you for sharing the card sketches idea.
Enjoying the use your scrap paper series.
Love all your cards!
Thanks D! I appreciate your comment. Those OWH sketches are my favorite for sure because they have all the measurements. I like to use them as a starting point, especially when my mojo has gone a walkin'!
Beautiful cards and yes on the organization spot 😮
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you so very much for this wonderful resource! I printed the layouts right away and you gave me some great ideas on using my copious amount of scraps.
Glad it was helpful Donna - There are several different card sketch lists, I just happen to like this one because it has the measurements. I keep mine in a notebook in sheet protectors. Very handy!!
I have just found you on ytube. I love your cards and I have lots of scrap DSP. So I will be making a lot of cards using the templates you told me about on pintrest. Thank you very much. 🇦🇺🐞
Have fun! You can find those OWH card sketch templates here but you may have to copy/paste to your browser.

Great jig idea! I've created jigs for punches, but not for my trimmer. Definitely can see using that! Thanks!
I keep that little jig tucked under the pad on my work desk and pull it out all the time. It's wonderful for cutting stips out of those pesky scraps we all have!
I found your link for the card sketches! Thank you! These will be helpful for me to leading card making at our local small town Art Gallery. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.🎉😊
Good for you Ruth!! I am thrilled you are leading some classes. It keeps our hobby alive and well!
Will be following the series, thanks.
Thank you !!!. You made my day with those print out layouts🌹
Really I can't take any credit for those except sharing the link. Operation Write Home sketches are available to anyone using that link. I am just happy they are so easy to print and have available in a notebook!
thanks for the OWH reminder. I had printed these out several years ago. I moved and forgot I had them still packed away. Your videos are so helpful. You have a new fan. blessings Patti
Hi Patti and Welcome to My Channel!! Isn't it funny how you can forget you have those card sketches? I did that same thing. And then all of a sudden they are front and center again. So very helpful with scraps especially the OWH with the measurements.
What a great idea for a jig! I believe I will make one of those too.
A very handy tool to have for sure!
I definitely get inspiration from card sketches when I pull out scraps to play with.
Great cards!
LOL - Sometimes when I pull a scrap pack out my brain goes on vacation! And my mojo follows it !
The only way I can find a starting point is to grab my sketches book and start the hunt.
@@SeniorSusieStamps I get inspired by videos, but I have also bought some dies that work really well on scraps. In addition to that I have containers of things like die cuts with sentiments stamped on them, die cut flowers... etc.
I love what you said about not being afraid of cutting into a whole sheet of paper to use your scraps.
It sounds like you have a great plan for using up some of those pesky scraps. I store mine with the parent pack so I can pull a coordinated sheet easily and use them. Otherwise, hunting for just the right color match doesn't work well for me.
Love scrap videos. Those little small scraps I like to use where you write your return address. Would be nice to use the snowflake on the envelope, too. Very pretty cards.
Hi Rosemary - What a wonderful use of scraps! Thanks for the idea!!!
@@SeniorSusieStamps you are very welcome.
Love your video using scraps it's eloping me to get down my scraps thank you Christine UK xx
Hi Christine! I find using sketches to be very helpful especially these OWH sketches with the measurements. I just finished another video yesterday using Halloween scraps and sketches, if you are interested - ua-cam.com/video/Jyp1E0BcuPg/v-deo.html
Love using up my scraps! I like your videos. They're very helpful!
Thanks Glenda! I try to put a new video out Sunday afternoons (USA) so come back soon!
Love your ideal look forward it helps me when I’m stoped please don’t stop ❤
I'm so glad it helps Dorothy. Those scraps can be pesky!!
Loved this video and the cards you made. Looking forward to every Thursday to See some new ideas.
Thanks Rosemary and Welcome! See you next week!!
Thank you very, very much for the info that you sent so quickly. It is much appreciated.
You're very welcome Catherine! Hope it was helpful.
I’m so happy I found your channel. I’ve seen a couple of the using scraps videos, and I’m so impressed with the wonderful cards you’ve created. I’ll be bingeing them all now and seeing what I can create. Thanks for sharing the OWH sketches.
That's wonderful! I'm so glad you're here!! I am in the process of moving, so new videos are hit and miss at the moment. But there is some great content to back watch on the channel in the mean time.
Thank you for the link to the OWH designs!
Absolutely - They are just wonderful. I printed off a set and put them in heavy weight sheet protectors. They are very easy to use that way.
You are so organized, Julia. Keeping the card layouts in the binder gives you a quick overview so you can pick the right one. I think snowflakes on the purple cards would look good. My fav card is the lasts one - I love scenes! ❤️🇨🇦
Hi Mary-Lynn - Yes I find I use them much more often when I can have them right next to whatever I am working on. They are great layout inspiration!! Isn't that deer in the woods wonderful? Paperwishes.com Snowfall paper in 6x6 size
I love the idea for this series. I have so many scraps that I never know what to do with. Thank you for giving us so many new ideas.🙂👍
You are so welcome Greta! There are several videos on the channel dealing with scraps. I rarely throw anything out - LOL!!!
Would love to see your organization setup and how you do bows. Today is the first time I see you. I liked and subscribed.
Hi Lori - Welcome to My Channel!! There is a studio tour that may help you see how I organize things, here is a link - ua-cam.com/video/i7N4ypv2Zsk/v-deo.html And there is a bow making video here - ua-cam.com/video/BI70EX3AwI8/v-deo.html And another bow making video here - ua-cam.com/video/cWVSGl4Bed0/v-deo.html
There is lots of content on the channel if you want to go back watch, and I try to put out a new video out every Sunday afternoon (USA time) - So, Come Back Soon!!
Thank you so much, this is the most informative scraps video I have ever seen and will be using it from now in xx
Hi Anne and Welcome to My Channel! I find this particular set of card sketches to be most helpful when I get brain freeze staring at a pile of scraps!
This video is so much fun and your "secret weapon" is a keeper! I have so much trouble with layouts, so I'm very excited to use them! Love this series and yes! Please show us your organization! I keep thinking I've organized well and then I still can't find what I need! LOL Thanks for all you do, Julia!
Hi Claudia Rose! I love these card sketches especially for scraps. You can find a sketch for any size scrap and build a card around it. I'll be showing my desk next week. So Come Back Soon!!
Where does a person buy the card sketches? I found your channel last night and and just couldn’t quit watching, I found your using scraps so fascinating. I have always donated my scraps to various family members or friends, even to some churches for the kinds and I live just down the street a block from an elementary school, the kindergarten teachers like getting them too. Thank you for such interesting videos. I’m sure I have a lot of your videos to watch so I can catch up to your recents. Please keep making them.
Hi Bettye - Thanks for the info on donating. Welcome to My Channel I am so glad you are here!!
These are the card sketches I like the best, because they have measurements - sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
I definitely love this series. Keep up the good work, I will be a follower.
Welcome Mary - Glad you found My Channel. There is lots of content already on the channel to back watch if you are interested and have some time. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoons (USA time) - So, Come Back Soon!!
Love cardmaking videos using scraps. It's lots of fun! Keep up the fun cardmaking.
Thanks Linda - Glad you liked it!!
Love this series! I may have to make scraps just to try some ideas!
LOL - If you have to make scraps you are definitely not spending enough time in your studio - LOL
I just found your channel and I love all of your scrap paper idea videos! Thank you!
Welcome! There is lots of content available to watch on the channel. And I try to put out a new video on Sunday afternoons (USA time). So - Come Back Soon!
Thank you, Julia. Lots of great info.
Thanks Jan!
New to your channel. Thanks so much! I adore your accent. It makes me think of some of my family.
Hi Michelle and Welcome to My Channel. I'm so glad you found it and hope you'll come back soon!
Love to get new ideas on using scraps, thanks for sharing.
Hi Cecilia - and Welcome to My Channel!! I am doing a Fall Scrap series on Thursdays so there are several more videos ready for you to watch. If you are interested here is the next one - ua-cam.com/video/nc_A8Jp3-Fc/v-deo.html
@@SeniorSusieStamps Already binge watching your channel.
@@ceciliagallant4263 Let me know if you have any questions...
Wow! This is an amazing download!! Thank you kindly!
I know it was very nice of OWH to share it!!
I only found you a while ago and have enjoyed everyone of your videos. I have so many scraps and because of you I am getting to use them. Thank you so much for sharing. I live in Australia ❤
Hi Carmelina - I have several subscribers from your neck of the world! Welcome and keep using up those scraps!!
I really enjoy all the ways you use scraps! Thanks for sharing what you've learned. Your cards are lovely.
Thank you Claire! I find card sketches a real Ace in the Hole when my mojo hits the road!
Hi Julia!! I LOVE having card layouts! It makes creating cards and journal covers sooo easy!! I can’t choose a favorite-I love all your cards! Do you use premade bases, or what do you use to create your bases? I love that you’re doing a scrap series! Will you be making any tags and ephemera, or just cards? Whatever you make, I’ll be here to watch and learn!!! Hugs, Tina 💗🌷
Hi Tina - I have some premade bases in larger sizes. But all the A2 and minislimline cards I cut myself. I think tags and ephemera are all part of using scraps so I suspect we will be looking into that area as well. I have really learned to love scraps in this past year, and rarely cut a full sheet of paper because I have had so many. Thanks for your words of encouragement! Julia
thankyou so much for the link to the sketches. and for your scrap cards. very helpful.
You are very Welcome!!!
I love this!! I have a ton of scraps that I eighter donate to preschool or give to library but I will be making more cards following your tutorials..thank you so much!!
Hi Linda and Welcome to My Channel!! I am delighted to know you donate your scraps! They are so useful for the little ones to play with and start enjoying our form of art. There are several other "Scrap" tutorials on the channel if you want to see some "Back Issues". Talk soon . . .
Just made me a secret weapon too! Thank you!
Good for you! I find pulling that notebook of card sketches very helpful in my studio!
I need to download OWH and I'm always looking to use scraps.
Hi Sharon - I find them most helpful especially when my mojo goes on vacay!! LOL
I love your cards, and I’m really looking forward to this series!
Hi Sheila - I am so glad you are going to join me!
I love this idea. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome! I use my card sketches a lot when using up scraps. Especially when I get brainlock!! LOL
Hi there Julia... 😀I have to laugh, as I found your secret weapon rather overwhelming with literally hundreds of card layouts... WOW!
Julia, I can see that this would be extremely helpful for you, (and other crafter's) as you make so many cards throughout the year. I can see that this would be an excellent way to plan, and use up all those cardstock scraps.
I am looking forward to seeing more videos in this series about using up all those scraps, and especially how to store them.
I must confess that I have never made a card using a layout or a plan. What I do, and I might have mentioned this before I gather all my card elements together on my desk, and then start playing with them to find a working layout for the card that I am making. Sometimes the card elements are sitting on my desk, because I am waiting for my paintings etc... to dry, as that is what is happening with a card that I am making at the moment.
Julia my dear... I didn't quite hear what you said at 27.36 in this video?!?! 🤣🤣🤣
Oh yes please Julia... I would love to see your new organisation area on your desk, as I am always looking for ideas to make my space more useful and productive.
I pray that you have a wonderful day creating in your beautiful craft studio.
Blessings, love and hugs from your Aussie friend Gloria. 🥰☕🍰💐💖💝💕
P.S - If you make a boo boo... hide it with a snow flake! LOL...that is precious, and too funny!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Gloria - I never used to use card sketches either. But eventually you do get a little brain freeze when using scraps. And I think it's always a good option for a jumping off point. Anything to stimulate the creative juices when you are in a slump.
And dontcha know I debated over those 2 pieces. But sometimes it's just OK to throw the last scrap out!
Stay tuned for the storage ideas they are coming! And I hope you have a fabulous week my Aussie Friend!!
So glad I made you laugh!! Julia
@@SeniorSusieStamps Julia, you always put a smile on my face when I see your videos. 😃🥰
Thank you so much for this series - I have so many scraps and now I’m encouraged to start using them.
Wonderful! I made it a mission about a year ago to "Use Scraps First" and guess what? I am still using scraps - LOL but they are dwindling now!!
Hi - new subscriber here - I loved all your beautiful cards! Will definitely be printing off the guide - thank you
Thank you so much for subscribing and your sweet comment! I think you will find these card sketches very useful. I know I sure do!!
You are new to me and am happy I found you! Thumbs up and subscribed as well. Looking forward to hanging out with you 😊
Hi Connie and Welcome to My Channel! I ususally try to put out 2 videos a week, so there is a lot for you to check out already. There currently is a Scrap Card series on Thursday which has been a lot of fun! And if you are interested - there is also a facebook page facebook.com/seniorsusiestamps/ So, Come Back Soon!
Good morning Julia! I found your video while o was browsing UA-cam and I am so glad I start watching!
Your video using scraps is a great idea, I am trying to use them all. Thank you for sharing the pdf file! I am looking forward to the series.
Your cards are amazing, it always amazes me how a talented card maker can get a simple template and create beautiful art!
Bless You Paulistana! I never feel like a talented card maker. Sometimes I get to my craft desk and ask the Studio what's next?! Other times I am full steam ahead. So, you never really know what you'll find here, but it's usually fun!! So, Come Back Soon!!
I just love the idea of using scraps for my cards! I loved your cards! 💕
Hi Lisa - You are in luck there are lots of scrap card ideas on My Channel - both my videos and some of my favorite UA-camrs can be found in my playlist - ua-cam.com/play/PL3czOqB_FoIt5pVpQgdOqrhhIPOT31nKU.html
Super cute cards!
Thanks and Welcome Kathleen!!
Wow love this system..just found you on utube..
Hi Lavern and Welcome to my Channel! There is a lot of good content already on the channel if you care to backwatch some. I am in the middle of a major move so new content is a bit sporadic. But I will be back again soon!
I am thrilled having all of these sketches! It was taking me forever and a day to find decent sketches and then try to remember where i found them. Thanks for providing the link. I cant image how fast I’m going to be getting through scraps now. ❤
Hi Beth and Welcome to My Channel! I love using these for scraps. And there are a couple of Valentine card videos using more sketches on the channel now too. Here is the link for one - ua-cam.com/video/AOUgr2ipPlk/v-deo.html
You've got me enthusiastic about starting my Christmas cards. I too love scraps and your cards are lovely.
Thanks Maureen - I always try to get mine started in July and I am already running behind this year. First of Sept I will switch off to Halloween cards for the nursing home and senior center. Then a few Fall/Autumn cards and right back to Christmas. That's the way it goes around here!
Really love these idea thank you so much xxx
Thanks Wendy - Card sketches can really help as a starting point when your mojo goes on vacation!
Thanks for the helpful video.😊
My pleasure 😊
Thank you for sharing your videos
You are so very welcome!
You are very creative! ❤️
Thanks Sheila! These sketches really help when the mojo is on vacation!!
Just found your channel and subscribed!!! I like your style...learned alot from you already!😊
Hi Deborah - Yippee Skippie!! There is lots of content alread on the channel to go back watch if you like. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA time). So, Come Back Soon!!
When I download card patterns for my binder, I size them to A2 size, but use cm rather than inches since this uses less paper. Then I can measure the elements in the card with my ruler and translate that into inches. You can also measure the element across in inches and then divide it by the card width or length in total. It's a lot easier to measure the card elements than it is to explain it, actually! Love videos about scraps because I have so many of them!
Hi Bernice - I am not as computer savvy as you! LOL I'm lucky to be able to figure out how to get them printed sometimes. Will keep this in mind if I ever download sketches again tho. Thanks for the great tip!!
If I was 't already a subscriber!!!! Very inspirational!
Yay! Thank you!
Hello Julia. Thank you for doing this new series! I think we all need help with using up our scraps. Do show your new organisation spot! I am hoping to use up scraps on making embellishments and tags too soon. I think I have made most of my Christmas cards for the past 3 years now with using scraps. I still have too many! So I thought making up into embellishments or tags might eliminate a few by layering up to use up! 😂
Hi Kaye - You are so right about layering up! And I love making embellishments especially if there is a stamped element. You can use them on all kinds of scrap cards. It has been a long time since I cut into a full sheet of designer paper. I keep thinking that day is right around the corner, and then I find some more scraps. LOL!!
I would love to know how to do the bows please! I am new to your channel and ❤ it!
Hi Debby and Welcome to My Channel. There is a lot of content already available here if you want to watch some back issues. And I try to put out a new video every Sunday afternoon (USA) so Come Back Soon!!
Susie !!! Enjoyed your scrape cards. Where May I get your book of examples of cards
I'm so glad you got some benefit from this video! The card sketches are from OWH (Operation Write Home) and here is a link - sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
I use OWH too and I also have all their sketches like you do. Mine are also in a binder and I use the sketches often especially when I'm trying to use scraps. I especially love Bonus sketch 10 for scraps! I have been trying to find the link (as my subscribers often ask) for the sketches and could never find it. Thanks for sharing that. I will now direct them to your link! Happy new year!
Happy New Year to you as well! I really like these sketches for beginner card makers - because the measurements are right there. And you just can't beat a notebook for them!!
This is my first time on your channel and I really enjoyed watching you create these beautiful cards. I am totally into using scraps so I am grateful for all of your wonderful tips and techniques. The snowflake card was my favorite but they were all very pretty. Looking forward to more in this series. 😍
Hi Elaine and Welcome to My Channel! I am so glad you found my tips helpful! Mission Accomplished!! I did a scrap series earlier this year that you might like to look at also - ua-cam.com/video/s4E9fqD_1cI/v-deo.html

Hi Karin - Welcome to my channel and Thank you!!
Love this!!! Thank you so much for this Julia I'm always looking for ways to use my scraps ☺️. You are the queen of using scraps 😃
LOL Lindsey you crack me up! I wear the crown very lightly believe me. But I can say this, I use my paper down to the bare nubs, and keep finding little useable bits here and there. Glad you are in for this series I think it will be a good one. (Hope, hope, hope)
Can you please list the link for the sketchbook? I could not find it. Thanks for the beautiful cards and the inspiration! Debbie
It is in the description but here is a link to take you there. I like the OWH sketches because they have the dimensions and are a great starting point for cards. sandyallnock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/OWH-Sketches-1-259-bonus.pdf
Is that card black, white and purple? I think it's the last card--The stag in the birches. I love that one. I like all of the cards...
That really wasn't purple it was a dark blue and lighter blue. But the blues were an unusual color of blue so it may well show up as purple on the screen.
@@SeniorSusieStampsBlue really is touchy. My mom once had a dark blue umbrella and it got misplaced and when she found it again, it had turned purple!
@@mawmawvee yes, we think of colors as being "true" but they are usually a combination and fading brings out the undertones.
Beautiful cards. I've made 310 so far this year and other than bases and white/vanilla card fronts, the whole bunch came from my "scrap" folders. I have enough scraps left to do another 310, but that's another year. I'm tired.
Goodness! I guess you are tired!! 🤩I think you are a Rockstar!! Scraps are a way of life in my studio. And I may be able to get back to cutting full sheets sometime in 2023, not sure yet tho! Thank you for your comment and Welcome to My Channel. I can't see your pic very well - is it a Springer Spaniel by chance?
@@SeniorSusieStamps No. Cricket is a Rat Terrier and my service friend.
