This new 7 Ways in 7 Days video series showcases 7 projects made by using every scrap of a single piece of 12×12 cardstock, and a handful of other bits & pieces. I am a bit over having a scrap folder full of bits and pieces, and so my mission in 2017 is to use up what I have before moving on to another project.
I was super keen to try this 3 tier slide out interactive card that I’ve been seeing online lately, and it was much more straightforward to construct than I expected. #pleasantsurprise I did not invent this template, it’s everywhere, but if you know who did create it, I would love to give them full credit, so let me know 🙂 I then challenged myself to use up every single piece of leftover green cardstock, and ended up with 7 gorgeous projects … you’ll see a new one every day this week!
