Sweet Scraps Challenge

It's day three in the Creatively-Green Valentine's blog hop and I have a new challenge for you. Do you save all your scraps? How about packaging from items you buy? Guilty here! I have two drawers dedicated to scraps smaller than 6 x 6: one for pattern paper and one for cardstock. It seems like I always find uses for these little pieces so I can't just toss them. Also, did I mention I am a paper hoarder? I know. Not something to be proud of but I am! I probably have paper lines dating back 10 years in those drawers. :-) Seriously. I can't part with a tiny piece because I just know they will come in handy for a project. Hence my challenge for today's Creatively-Green Valentine's blog hop. Sweet scraps.
I elected not to make a super involved craft for this challenge because sometimes we need a quick card for someone special but we don't have an hour to dedicate to making that something special.
How about a simple card for that cutie pie?

I know-incredibly simple huh? This card uses 1 inch squares and a tiny heart covered in sugar crystals on a white card base. Tiny scraps were used to make this card and I wanted to share that cards don't need all the bells and whistles (ribbon, buttons, flowers, etc.) to make it adorable. Notice no pattern paper here? Just cardstock,a stamp, and a bit of glitter. Super easy to recreate and even if you don't have a cutie pie stamp, hand write a sweet little note. I hand cut the flower and used a pop dot to raise it up. Easy peasy huh?

This next card also utilizes scraps and a piece from a Making Memories package. The design might be familiar: I used Jennifer's card sketch from yesterday. I ♥ it!

It was also Jennifer that inspired me to use the packaging on my card. The die cut ledger print on this packaging was a must use for a future card/project. One thing you might not notice about this card is it's a mini. Yep. Let me show you a photo compared to a standard card.

It's a mini card. An easy little card to make up for that one you love. I wanted to share with you that cards can be any size. You can fold those small scraps in half and make a darling little card.
