These are based on a card I received from kbrison years ago. (I wish she would join us here!) I made these while on a work call, and used up some scrap paper that probably would have been tossed out, in my madly de junking and de stashing as I pack for our move. Double win!
The first is a birthday card for my FIL.
I liked how it turned out, and made a second for my MIL because she loves happy mail so very much!
I happened to have that little feather embellishment in my stash and could not believe how well it goes with those paper scraps!
Thanks for looking!

Those turned out lovely! And, what a beautiful embellishment…looks like you found the perfect use!

Thank you! I really enjoyed making these cards. I think I’d like to make more of them when my life settles down some.
The cards are fab…love the patchwork look and what a great way to use up scraps!

these are so cool!
I’m thinking I may be able to do something similar with washi tape?
If I don’t get all stuck to myself, LOL
And the feather embellishment goes wonderfully!
Thx for sharing, and I miss kbrison as well~

These are great! They’re so cohesive and organized that one would never think, “so nice that she used her scraps”!

You totally can do this with washi tape! I like this project because it uses up those strips of paper too small for much else…beautiful and practical!

Exactly! I don’t think I would have identified that they were scraps if you hadn’t specified it in the post, B1K.
