    You all seemed to be in desperate need of scrap-spiration, thanks for the wonderful comments😍 A returning question, the alphabet used for the sentiments is: Cutting Die Alphabet Essentials nr.355 ldli.co/e/lmm66ro [ ecstasycrafts.ca ] In the product list I have added a few more similar in size and look💕

    You did it again! You never cease to amaze me! Everyone else shows cards with strips but I just couldn’t believe my eyes when you took it so many variations above that!!! Your brain is such a beautiful brain, and matches the beautiful person you are! I’m really loving this idea! Just fantastic!- every one of them! I thought about you yesterday on International Woman’s Day! You are a spectacular woman with such an eye and regard for beauty. I hope you had a great day and May you be blessed 10 fold in the happiness you bring others! Fabulous video Gerry! Just fabulous!

    There are plenty channels that share videos on how to use scraps by cutting them into strips. But this is next level with the circle die cuts and the sprinkles, making two cards out of every single piece. Especially love the roof shingles look.
    Great hack, to use lined paper! I need to get myself double sided adhesive sheets and get going.

    When the adhesive sheet's release paper is trying to lay back in place...maybe a post it note could hold it out of the way while you are laying down your strips.
    I am so happy I stopped to watch this tonight. Every tip, all the card fronts, and then the way you manipulated the papers so each finished card was so unique! Happy happy cards and a happy me. 🐧💙 Thank you and may God bless you and keep you safe and joyful.

    • @GerrysCraftRoom

      I love the way you're thinking, I do think the post-it can't hold it because that side of the release paper is non-stick, otherwise you can't peel it of the adhesive, makes sense, right...I think I was just fussing, lol. I am so glad you watched and commented too and that it made you happy, yay😍 Thanks and you're welcome💖

    WOW!!! SO MANY cards!! Such great ideas. I especially love the doodling and the "happy accident" flag strip!!! It's my favorite. I think I will make some of them "on purpose"!! They look great. Oh, AND the thread around the background label is fabulous!! I have a container by my couch where I put pieces of thread, embroidery thread, and yarn, etc., to use in my crafting. So I can pull out a piece anytime I need it without getting my supplies of thread out. I also twist it to make "cord" and also add cut up threads to top of my faux handmade paper. It's all good. I'm going to use the thread around background label in my junk journals too. I've never seen that done before. So many GREAT ideas. Thx for a great video. Austin,TX USA

    You blow me away with your fun ideas! I love the concept of ‘productive procrastination’. I think that is my middle name.
    A few years ago I made a scrap card and couldn’t throw away the little ‘banners.’ To me they looked like a row of buildings in a city so I made a cityscape card, using the outline of the ‘buildings’ to trace a reflection on water. Hard to explain. I still have the card because I loved it so much.
