Beautiful cards. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@scrappincraftygardener]

Thank you! And, you are quite welcome!

[@tinamilner6428]

I did something similar with a die like this a few years ago. I put the pieces in various directions. It is a beautiful card.

[@scrappincraftygardener]

Thank you!

[@susieshow825]

Beautiful idea. Love that with the scallop die & the black background, at first it looked like rick rack around each piece.

[@scrappincraftygardener]

Thank you! I love those scalloped dies, and the cards came out so cute I think.

[@alidahawker8734]

Loved these cards, . Just an idea, I use a small rubber band around my glue bottle to hold the small top out of the way while using. Thanks again for a lovely way of using scraps.

[@scrappincraftygardener]

Thanks! That little top is annoying. No rubber bands, but do have a hair band, will try it out tomorrow - thanks!

Thanks! These cards are so easy to make and I think you will have fun making them!

[@carolbatchelor5855]

I really like the scalloped die that you used to cut the paper for your card. The die cuts look nice with the black background. It works really well on both of your cards. They are beautiful!

[@scrappincraftygardener]

Thank you! I love that die set from Waffle Flower, I use it all the time

[@carolynblackburn3198]

Two lovely 5x7 cards! I learned some clever and frugal tips from your tutorial- how to separate/file and store my paper scraps and how to make wise use of them. Thank you for sharing!

These turned out really pretty. I may try these techniques even though I will have to improvise with the tools I have which is okay, we use what we have!!❤

[@scrappincraftygardener]

@@thevictorianedge5465 thank you - and definitely, use what you have!

[@loribeck7496]

Lovely! Now I have to go sort my scraps... And see if I have some dies to try this.

[@scrappincraftygardener]

@@loribeck7496 thank you and have fun! If you don’t have dies - just cut rectangles and use pinking shears or a decorative edged scissor to get nearly the same look!
