Thinking of you

Yep, More Scraps!
This time you will be using the small piece of pattern paper.
Gluing them in a patter like this you will have one piece left over, but don't toss it out we are going to make something with it.

Using Up Scraps from Housewarming Thank yous

Ok, So here is the scoop! I have one of these pieces for every card I made, here is how I cut it.

 Once you have them all cut up like this, use the large piece of pattern paper and line them up side by side. You will be able to make two of these cards below. (See last post for recipe)
