The "Ways to Use It" challenge today is to make a goal in your crafting life and actually START doing it. My goal is to use up my scraps of paper BEFORE I allow myself to cut into a new piece. I see loads of quilt cards in my future. Here's my first one for 2014.

Great idea for using up scraps! I love that rose colour with the kraft. Embossing on top of it really gives the appearance of quilting I think. Lovely!

I love quilting cards and this one is gorgeous! Wonderful colours. That was my resolution last year and it works pretty good...sometimes. But you need a piece of green...you used the last scrap on your last card...get a new piece...POOF!!!! MORE SCRAPS! yikes!

This is gorgeous!! I love quilts and quilt cards. I haven't done much of either. I need to use my scraps too. There are so many things to concentrate on.

Ah - I'm planning a scrappy TLC for February, keep your eyes open ;-). But patchwork is certainly a great way to use them and always makes for a card with real impact.
