 Hey everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching my tutorial today so I've got another scrap hit video so this is an idea on how to use some of your scraps to make nice cards. So this was a scalloped pattern that I done during a Facebook live and it's been really popular, lots of people have been sharing their versions over on the Facebook group and it's just a great way to use up those scraps so we'll get straight into the video. So I've got a 5x7 card blank, you can do this on any size. Now I do have a one inch punch here, this one's from Hobby Craft, you can pick these up you know from most craft stores and lots of different craft companies have their own ones as well. This made it quite easy for me to be able to kind of lay this all out but any size will work once you see how you put it together it's very straightforward and if you don't have a punch you've got a circle dies or nested dies you can use those as well. Okay so I've got a few there but I'm going to punch some more out in the black colour here so I always take the bases off of my punches just so I can really see where I'm you know punching and I just that's just how I've always done it I know that's not going to be for everyone but I am I do like it this way and you can see that I'm really not wasting any of that paper and I can cut that little bit away in the middle and then I should be able to still get one more out of that. So you know you really do get to use up your scraps with this one so I've got some more darker ones there and I'm going to take some more the lighter ones and just some more of that one and whenever I have scraps I always trim off the bits that you're not going to use and then put them back into your scrap because that's now a perfect trim for a project that I might have in the future just keeps everything neat and then that will go into the waste or recycling. Okay so I think I've got enough there now so I'm going to use my liquid glue here because it just gives you time to be able to move things around. So on this one I've got one two three four five six seven eight rows so I'm going to stick with the same again so along the bottom here I'm just going to pop kind of just a few blobs of glue like so you don't have to do that way you can put the glue on to the backs of these which is what I did during the live but I'm just going to do it this way just for a bit of speed. Now I'm going to start off the first one kind of overhanging the card and then I'm just going to line up all the others with the bottom of the card. I'm just going to stick with all green here. Now like I said because these are one inch I've got half an inch overhanging this end and then over half an inch overhanging the other end there. Okay then I'm going to go for a lighter color and I'm going to pop my blob of glue now in the middle of where the ones below all join and then you want to the bottom of your circle yeah because there isn't really a top or bottom but you know what I mean you want to make sure that you want it to sit just where the bottom ones join okay and then I'm going to line that up right with the edge of this card and then again I'm just going to pop that one there that one. If you use a liquid glue it is quick as well because it just you've got that time to wiggle it around kind of move them just make sure they're all sitting make sure each one sits right where that join is and that will ensure you keep it straight otherwise you'll start going that way I think I started to drift a little bit with that one but I managed to bring it back and then again I'm putting a bit of glue there like so and I'm going to come in back again with the darker ones and you just keep doing this until you've finished you might want to cover the whole cardstock front if you want so I'm just going to do the same eight rows as I did on that other one so do you like that and you'll trim it all at the end so I'm just going to come down a little bit here just hold up make sure they are need to bring that one down yeah that looks okay and then I'm going to go and do the next one so I'm just going to carry on doing this okay so they're all stuck down so now I'm going to stick down this strip here which is half an inch by you know whatever the width is of your card so mine's just over five so I'm going to trim it when I put it on I was saying during the live this reminds me of a skirt I used to have and it was bright pink and it had a waistband and then it had all scalloped little silk discs that hung down and it was beautiful and there was a dress version of it as well which I think my sister may have had and I doled it so it reminds me of that and also I have a pinata bag gift bag on my channel which I was reminded about during the live and I'll link that here actually if you like this design so I did say if you don't want it so flat you can curl just the edges and it will look like a pinata so it's a really fun effect and that was really bright and colorful and that's on my YouTube so I'm just going to let that dry and I'm just going to flip it over open it up and just trim these scissors here just sit your scissors right against the edge and you'll get a really nice finish okay and then I'm just going to stamp my sentiment so I've got this thank you which is really old it was from a me to you set I think it was from 2016 but any of these sentiments will work so I've got thank you so I'm going to sit that one I think that looks okay that a couple of times just so we got a nice crisp image and then I'm just going to finish it off with some of the black Nouveau drops so this one here is their vintage drops and it is I think it's just noir let me just double check what's called blackboard so I'm just going to pop always test it first I've got some scrap there get any air bubbles that may be in there I'm just going to pop little one there okay and there's the finished car I'll just bring it up really quick really easy to do any scraps you can do plain scraps as well you don't have to have patterned paper you can just do lots of you know different colors so you do like rainbow effect there's just so many lovely ways to do this I've already enjoyed seeing all of the different versions that people have been sharing on the group because I did share this last week on my Facebook live and I look forward to seeing other versions that you may share so thanks for watching check out my other scrappy or I'll put it be a scrappy playlist and it'd just be getting filled up with lots of tutorials just giving you ideas on how to use your scraps so I hope you like this one again and I'll be back very soon with another tutorial thanks for watching bye
