Could there be anything easier to make than this Charming Sentiments Brights Scrap Card? And it’s bright and cheerful to boot! This was an accidental card, meaning I had no intention of making it, but I saw these almost perfect-sized scraps in my package of the Brights 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the idea came to me to make this scrap card!
I just chose one of the designer paper colors, Azure Afternoon, for the card base. Next, I simply chose some scrap strips and played around for a second with their placement. Remember, you have two sides to choose from! I glued them down right onto the Azure Afternoon, just eyeballing their placement. You “could” measure and do the math and all that, but that’s no fun! Just lay them out and tweak them about how spaced apart they should be!
As an alternative, you could cut a layer of Basic White or any other color and either glue the strips spaced apart as they are now or push them together with no spaces.
For the greeting, I chose this one from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set and stamped it in Azure Afternoon ink. It is die cut as well as an Azure Afternoon layer with two dies in the Something Fancy Dies. For some sparkle, I used a few Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins.
It’s really a very simple card but still makes you look talented! Another thing you could do would be to stamp randomly on Basic White or colored cardstock, then cut that paper apart into strips whatever size you like. So many different ideas you could pull from this one card!
Don’t forget the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper sale going on for just another week! It ends on June 30. This Brights 6″ x 6″ paper is NOT on sale but plenty of other great ones are so take a look!
