Here’s a list of materials I used to make this paper scrap panel card.

Instructions

Let’s get started making this paper scrap panel card!

First, emboss your card base with the Tasteful Textiles embossing folder. This adds texture and dimension to your card.

Next, mat the three designer series paper pieces to the three strips of cardstock using adhesive. Place the matted paper strips on the card base – play around with placement of each strip to see where you want them! Adhere the three matted designer paper strips to the card base using dimensionals.

I used a stamp from Stampin Up’s Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set to create the greeting, and I attached it using glue.

Next come the embellishments. Place a few dots of multipurpose glue on the front of the card and drop the gems right on the glue dots! Tip: I found tweezers are the easiest way to grab gems.

VIOLA! Now you have a beautiful and fun paper scrap panel card made from leftover strips of your designer series paper! Woohoo, no waste here!
