Some of my Favorite Scrap Buster Ideas PLUS Tutorials for Beginners

I had so much fun with my paper scraps, and thought I'd share some of my favourite ways to use up my paper and cardstock off cuts and left overs with you.
These projects are all beginner friendly, quick and easy to make and can be done in mass make sessions. My process is usually to make them all in advance, rather plainly - just the bases, then I like to decorate them later on when I use them in a journal, so that they match the theme I'm working with.
Top of the list for me would be master boards. I didn't show my process in this video, as most of you are familiar with it. But I will do a tutorial on this for my beginner subscribers at a later stage.
Punched out shapes: I love to punch out different shapes and keep them to later use for decorating my journals, cards and envelopes. Paper punches are a great tool for this, but some of them are a bit difficult for me to manage and hard to punch through cardstock. Still good for some mindless fun while watching a movie or series. Sometimes I also get out my BigShot and use some of the smaller dies to just sit and cut various things from my box of scraps.
I always use little notepads in my journals, so I made a bunch of these in different shapes, sizes, colors and textures.
Tiny envelopes are cute, and you can insert a sentiment, sticker, die cut or anything into them as a little surprise.
I've also made the fold down envelopes which can be a cute hidden journaling spot.
And lastly I made a couple of tiny matchbook folders with pockets, which I think is so clever to use as a tuck spot on a page, and then you can also tuck in some smaller embellishments, stickers, tickets, tags or whatever else you can think of, inside the folder.
Of course I have many more scrap buster ideas and there are also loads of other videos available from other creators, but these are just some of MY favorite things to do.
I hope you enjoyed this video, and feel inspired to get out your paper scraps and start creating.
Have fun!

Yes, I’m seasoned (and 74) but I still like seeing how others do things and invariably learn something or see something interesting! You had me watching as soon as I saw the tiny envelopes which I just love! Thank you!

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

Thanks. Hope you have fun with your scraps 😀

❤ I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of this video. You’ve filmed every bit so well that you can easily watch with or without sound. I found it very relaxing, enjoyable and informative as a paper crafter. Thank you so much for the time that you put into this video. Lots of great ideas.

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

Thank you for the beautiful comment. Making videos is actually really hard for me and takes a lot of time, and it is a craft in itself. So reading this truly warms my heart and I really appreciate it. Thank you for your kindness and support.

[@CraftedByChristyShop]

❤i have watched this several times. I enjoyed it very much. Even though i have made all these things, your process is much different, and i enjoyed learning new ways. Thank you for sharing!😊 I also appreciated the time stamping. I have saved this to my favorites to jog my memory when I'm stuck ❤

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

So true! I always watch videos of things I know, and so many times I've learned a new method or trick to make it easier.

[@kellyhards8828]

That's exactly what I said! ❤

Thanks

[@liachristy7779]

I love your ideas. The music in the background makes it hard to hear you.

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

Thank you for your support and feedback. Glad to hear you like my ideas, apologies if the music had a negative effect. There seems to be varying comments on that and I'll look into it.

[@user-bh8yk5cw7f]

Can You please give me the link to the punches You use on this video please🙏

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

Hi, it's actually a mix of secondhand punches I found on FB Marketplace, and some new from a local small craft shop. But I'm pretty sure they are available on Amazon too. Just search for 'decorative paper punch'. I hope that helps.

[@user-bh8yk5cw7f]

@@TimelessTreasuresByV thanku so much !!

[@pennydouphinett4545]

Just found your channel. Like your ideas. Don't like the music.

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

I am so glad you found me and like my ideas. Sorry to hear you don't like the music.

[@Barbarachocolate1956]

Thank you so much. Music is absolutely not necessary. Distracting.

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

Thank you. I do appreciate your honest feedback and input.

[@ru4repeattoo]

Suffering from migraines makes the contrast between your lovely voice and music difficult because they are at different levels. Perhaps if it was the same decibel level the change/ transition wouldn't be so shocking. Beautiful content. Thank you for sharing your talent and time with us. 😊🎉❤

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

@@ru4repeattoo Thank you for your feedback and support. I'm sorry to hear you suffer from migraines and that the music had a negative impact.

[@Rebeccacell]

Yes I found the music too loud too. Maybe lower volume and only when you speed up the video.

[@tnmtredhead]

The audio is terrible, I cannot understand a word you were saying even with the volume at 100% But ads are so loud I have to turn the volume down quickly. If you plan on doing videos get a better sound system. I have a new $1200 laptop so it is not on my end

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

I am sorry to hear you had a bad experience.

[@Nananaox1pt]

Madam or Sir, if you woke up traumatized because your husband left with another woman younger than you, do not come to vent your anger here, because I listen to the instructions perfectly, I don't give a damn about anything else, if you bought a $1,200 laptop The question is, do you have money for food?

[@Nananaox1pt]

​@@TimelessTreasuresByVYou don't have to apologize to these bitter people, because I hear your explanation very clearly, someone always comes along who is not happy and wants to make others feel uncomfortable.

[@lilmsmetal]

The sound is perfect on my iPad.

[@maryjoglenn1731]

Sound is perfect for me 😊

[@mollymouse4900]

The music is annoying !

[@TimelessTreasuresByV]

I am sorry to hear that.
