Remember the flower tutorial?

Well, have a look at this: using the same flowers from the tutorial I made a super cute wreath and flower vase using just 3 sheets of double sided paper. Both projects cost me less than $5 total! (I bought the vase & wreath at the dollar store.) What can you do with those easy-peasy paper flowers?

Get Organized: January

Do one project each week.

  • WEEK 1: Designate a place for your scraps (you may need one for patterned paper and one for cardstock) gather all your scraps and sort them into their storage container (I only save 4x6 pieces of paper and bigger- so I can mat my photos. Do what works for you).
  • WEEK 2: Find 10 items in your scrap area and put them where they belong.
  • WEEK 3: Get a box to gather old supplies you no longer use in. When the box is full, you can donate it, or consider selling your stash at our Garage Sale in February.
  • WEEK 4: Put your supplies back in their homes so they are ready for your next scrap session.

If you get all 4 assignments done, reward yourself with a trip to Scrap N' Fanatics and browse the isles for some inspiration!
