Hello friends! I'm creating cards for the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party! To build up my stash of Christmas cards to keep December stress free! At least in the Christmas Card department! LOL
In keeping with the scrap theme, this background was created with strips of scraps. I was trying to get papers together that matched and just kept giving up. I literally sat down, grabbed a sheet of copy paper and my glue gun and just grabbed whatever was close. And in the end, it's perfect! don't have to be fancy or "matchy" just use up those scraps!!! I keep thinking I need to make a video for this, I saw a video that inspired me to try this technique, but now I can't find it. *note to self....self, make a video!*
Scraps from all different manufacturers, paper packs, thicknesses, style, etc.....but look at that, they all went together perfectly! After all the strips were glued down, I die cut it with the largest scallop and rectangle nesting die from Unity Stamp Co. The image is also from Unity. This one happens to be retired, but there is a new version called Simple Little Wishes. I stamped the image and then die cut it with one of the scallops and circles nesting dies. Colored with KingArt Alcohol Markers.
Sentiment from this same set, stamped with Versafine Clair in Nocturne (as was the image) die cut and mounted to another scrap! Glued everything down with Tombow Liquid Glue.
I followed {BYSHC} Sketch 48 for this card!
Beautiful! I love your scrap quilt cards! Thanks for sharing with the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party!
