Default What to do with....

the brown paper backs of unmounted stamps and the white paper backs of stickers! I know this sounds silly... but I have thrown away so many of these little papers and I got to thinking there has got to be some creative ideas out there for these bits of scraps.

Oh great...now someone here is going to come up with some great, creative idea for these and I'll regret throwing them away!

I already regret throwing away all the brown packing paper from SU, since I now learned that I can stamp on it and use it for wrapping paper! :shock:

Sorry...I don't have any ideas for them!

Tmarie, I am with you on the brown packing paper. I have thrown away tons of it and then I participated in a private swap with Dawn.MA and she wrapped her box in it and stamped on it. I thought it was such a cute idea that I had to do it myself!

As for the other stuff... there may be a use for it, but I throw it away in all the excitement of cutting and mounting new stamps! LOL If someone posts a really worthwhile use, I may be able to break my old habits though!

You could use them to punch out a shape, put it on Oh-So-Sticky tape as a mask, sprinkle with tiny beads, then lift it and sprinkle with another color of beads.
