Description:

I'm hosting this swap in another of my groups, but I thought that this group might like it too.

This is a swap for those of us that seem to save our decorative paper scraps because we just can't bear to throw them away, thinking there will be something we can use them for - LOL. You will look through your stash and pull out at least 5 that are fall colors (reds, greens, yellows, oranges, browns, gold, copper, and all shades thereof). Punch (or cut) squares (or another shape of your choosing), and arrange and adhere them to a blank card, in a pattern of your choice as well. The main thing is we are using fall colors.

Write a note to your partner inside the card. Please decorate your envelope with a fall theme (you may use more paper scraps, but other things too – stickers, stamps, washi tape, writing with fall colored markers, paint, etc.).

Easy, inexpensive, & fun - - a great way to make art with our pretty paper scraps.

Since the sender is picking the colors, we can all start now making our cards.

I am on watch for this swap. I'm not sure I understand the concept on how to do this-All I do is add fall colored scraps to the front of a blank card? No designs or picture?

@DixieDiane as soon as I can figure out how to scan my card, I'll attach one that I recently made. You'll see how I punched squares from different fall-colored scraps, arranged them, glued them down, and added a stamped saying. Easy, but pretty as a note card, I think :)

Yay, I finally figured out my scanner :) Hope seeing this helps.
