This week I set out to use up some paper scraps. I cut a variety of papers into 1/4" strips, adhered them to white cardstock then cut out various sized circles. I inked all the edges with black ink to make them a little more cohesive. With all the patterns, I kept the rest of it pretty simple...just the title, stickers and some enamel dots to call it done.  Someone Loves Vacation 28-4-28 Day 13 by Christine C68, on Flickr For full disclosure, it was very difficult working with the paper because the strips kept lifting up. I don't know if spray adhesive or even a glue stick would have worked better. Please share your projects here. If you are participating in the February team challenge, you get a point for doing this challenge. |

What a FUN page! Love the design with the circles, and all your work with the scraps really paid off. I really want to lift this page, but may not be so dedicated with the paper piecing LOL.

Wow! christinec68, amazing page. I love the title going around the largest circle. I'm sure that was very time consuming, and the inking does make it look cohesive. Beautiful. |

Not nearly as creative as the OP, but I uses scraps from my LEGO envelope and my Little Boy tub for these two pages. I save every little bit and piece, so it is good to be able to glue some of them down.

AND I will be sharing in the Sharing Thread when I count up my points. |
