The use of scraps with you is never ending, I always have scraps ad love using them, thank you for showing us more ways to use them. I love them all, the little bird is very cute. 🐞🇦🇺
Hi Nina - This is always a fun day in the studio. I really like testing new stamps on scraps and getting good results. Buying used is sometimes a gamble. And that owl set was just too cute to pass up!
Thanks Julie - LOL - I have thought the same thing about "scraps". To me there is a difference in a scrap and piece of cut paper. But to each their own...
You are full of good ideas. This one will be helpful in whittling down my own stash of strips. I like the owl card the best, as it reminds me of my late mother, who loved all things "owl." That background stamp would make a great abstract Christmas tree. Thanks for the continual inspiration you provide.
Hi Lucy! I thought the same thing about that abstract stamp!! Beware - these cards can be a bit addicting - so do all your sentiment stamping first because you may end up without any white strips leftover!!
What a great way to use scrap strips! I love all of them and even though I am not an owl person, thats a super cute set of stamps and I think that one is one of my favorites. I have 4 favorites from this group! 🙂 I am continually amazed at the clever cards you hare each Sunday!
Love how you use scraps! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and knowledge with us. I have so many scraps, now I can attach them with a new outlook!!! Keep up your awesome work!
Julia, my white scrap bin ‘runneth’ over! Lol I need to just sit down and get busy using my scraps. All the cards are so inspirational…love them all! ❤
Hi Gigi! This is a great way to test new to you stamps! And keeping those white scraps wrangled at the same time is a big bonus. Since I started timing my scrap clean out with coversheet prep, it really works well.
@@SeniorSusieStamps That’s a great idea regarding the new stamps. 😊 My scraps are stored in plastic lidded containers by strip size, so that should make it easier just to sit and create. Yep, I’m one of those who has to at least try to organize the chaos. Lol Have a great day!! ❤️
Hey there Julia, I loved the usage of your half inch scraps, and such a clever idea making them into a background. Those owl stamps are wacky and cute, and I had to laugh at the owl stamp that you chose for your card as it looks a little alien especially with his two antennae. The daisy and pink flower cards would have to be my favourite, but they all are lovely even the cute little alien card...LOL!!! I just checked all my alcohol markers (Spectrum Noir Tri-blends) and noticed that some of the lighter colours were getting a little dry. I never would have thought to refresh them with a little alcohol... "thank you, Julia." 🩷 Hopefully that will work for mine as well. Actually, I saw my little bottle of alcohol in my craft studio the other day, and I wondered why I had bought it as I can't remember the reason for me purchasing it in the first place. At least now I have a purpose for it now thanks to you. Have a blessed day, and with lots of love. 🤗🌷🩷
G'Day Gloria - Those antennae cracked me up! And you are right they do look a bit alien LOL. Now, about the alcohol - don't expect much more than a few minutes use by dipping the nib. You may need to dip several times in a session. Sometimes if you have enough alcohol in the resevoir you can tip the chisel point in at an angle and see air bubbles come out of the pen body. Then you know you are actually getting alcohol into the ink reservoir, and it lasts longer. I always store my markers flat - do you? I also use alcohol to remove pigment inks and then do a glycerin water rinse on those stamps. And, I use it to clean my desk mat - it really does a good job at de-gunking things. God's Blessings to you my Friend!
@@SeniorSusieStamps Hey Julia, yes, I do store my alcohol markers flat. Just recently I tested them all and have made swatches so I can find the colour/s that I need more easily, as it is difficult to judge the colour on the side of the marker or on the box! Have a lovely and blessed day. 🩷
What do you do with all your makings? Etsy, eBay, craft shows?? Just wondering as I just started delving into and making and really enjoying learning and making them. But what to do with them all?
Julia, I have a curious TH-cam question that I'm wondering if you can answer. When I leave comments on a video, sometimes other people "Like" my comments. It got me wondering if you as the TH-camr see that. I always thought if they are "Liking" and the TH-camr doesn't see that then it's kind of too bad in a way cuz I comment cuz I have enjoyed what I've watched and don't really care if others "Like" my comments. Just curious and today's the day I'm finally getting around to asking. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
Hi B - I don't see the likes on comments unless I happen to go back into the comments and notice them. There isn't anyway for me to tell who likes them. I look at it this way - someone liked your comment which tells me they thought the same thing. So I take it as a twofer! Some people will go ahead and comment as well as read all the rest of the comments and like what they agree with. Make sense?
@@SeniorSusieStamps I do this sometimes on the videos because I like to see what other people added to the conversation. Sometimes the comment sections are filled with golden nuggets of info, like tips and tricks. It's always fun to see which card(s) everyone liked too! I will definitely give a comment a like if I agree with that they wrote or appreciate a suggestion they have made.

WOW - what a clever use of white paper scrap strips!!! LOVE all of the cards!!! TFS!!!
Hi Kathleen! I love making these cards and always look forward to a day with white scraps. They never disappoint!
Thank you for making this video! The card with the bird is my favorite!
He is a cutie! Can you believe that stamp set was never opened???
I love how you have used the scraps up! So many presenters have "scraps" that simply aren't scraps - by a long shot
Thanks Julie - LOL - I have thought the same thing about "scraps". To me there is a difference in a scrap and piece of cut paper. But to each their own...
Julia, you did it again, those are the cutest little cards! ❤them. 😊
Glad you like them Marilynn. This is always a fun day in the studio for me. It's a great way to test out new stamps.
Love the way you used the white scraps! I would have never thought of putting them together like you did in order to stamp on the scraps. Brilliant!
Thanks so much Morgaine! This is a great way to test new (old) stamps, and it makes a fun card to boot! Have a great week.

Amazing, what you can create with white scraps, I love every single one of these cards!!
This is such a great way to use up those 1/2 inch strips and to test new stamps!!
Hi Julia, what cute cards. I always love a good card to use up scraps. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
You are so welcome!

Thanks Maureen! This is always a fun day in the studio and I look forward to it!!
Hi , We both love those owls. I look forward to seeing you on Sundays 😮😮😮
Thanks Rita! I can't believe someone owned that set and had never opened it. The original wrapper was still on it!
Love how you use scraps! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and knowledge with us. I have so many scraps, now I can attach them with a new outlook!!! Keep up your awesome work!
Thank you Dae - Scraps are a treasure trove aren't they?!
My favorites are "all" of them, Julia these turned out fabulous. Thank you for sharing them.
I also need to try this technique when my mojo returns.
It will Terrie. When you are ready put one foot forward and your supplies will welcome you back!! They do me whenever I lose my mojo...
Julia, my white scrap bin ‘runneth’ over! Lol

@@gigiandrews5327 LOL I am still working on my colored paper, have been for 2 months. Not very motivated I'm afraid!
@@SeniorSusieStamps
I so get it. Lol
Yep, my colored card stock strips are well organized by color as well, and keeping the white ones company. Lol
Fun! I would love receiving a fun card like that
Thanks Denise!!
Another video chock full of good ideas. 😊
Thank you my Friend!
Love these cute cards!!
These are so easy Susan - Hope you'll try some!!
Susie these cards are so cute and I really like using up the strip scraps and stamping out an image with the space in between.
Me too Roxanne! These cards are just fun to make and a great way to test out new to me stamps. If the fail, nothing much lost!!
Like them all, but blue best
Thank you - That blue is a lovely color!

@@gloriaonesimus6244 That is so true!
This is a hard call. I'm going to go with the last one you showed. ❤
That was my favorite too Angela! It certainly was the most interesting to make. Lots of different steps there.
I love your imagination ❤
Awww...Linda - Thank you so much for your encouragement!
Hooty-hoot is cute
He sure is! A blue owl with antennae - LOL
😅love them!,,
LOL - Me too! These are some of the most fun scrap cards to make and test out new to me stamps.
too cute
Thanks Susan!
❤
Thanks Caroline!
What do you do with all your makings? Etsy, eBay, craft shows?? Just wondering as I just started delving into and making and really enjoying learning and making them. But what to do with them all?
I send them out, give as gifts and donate. I used to have a card rack in a local antique store that sold some too.
