Thank you for sharing another great video full of tips. We learn so many different techniques through the years, and forget them, or get bored with them and move on. It’s great to see fresh ideas mixed in with oldies but goodies! I need to use scraps as techniques examples, and swatches that I never finished. Thank you again, Gwen. 😊
Thanks Kim, it's so true! Yes, the scraps as templates and swatches are my favourites, especially when I make something I love and know in my heart I'll forget how I did it and what all the measurements were. Super dooper handy to have a template to reference.
Great video! The woven card is very cool. Another great use for white scraps is to substitute these for foam tape. Especially for sentiments, just cut multiple and glue them together. Holds up better through the mail. (Jennifer McGuire does this all the time)
Hey Erin, Thanks for popping by today, I actually did this on a card recently, it's a great way to add dimension and uses up those scraps, love it! I appreciate you adding it here for reference.
Thank you so much... I did think I was going crazy for a second there, it looked great when I made it but when I watched the video back I wasn't sure 🤪 Glad both ways work, now I have options. Thanks for letting me know.
Your designs are more beautiful than other scrap videos. I can see myself gluing down the triangles while a watching TV in an evening.Thx for your ideas.
Thanks for popping by today Helen, I'm so so glad you have enjoyed this series, it was super fun to bring together loads of ideas for those pesky paper scraps! 🌸
I love, love, love your beautiful projects. Fantastic ideas for using up those white scrap pieces. I don’t think it really matters what way you use an embossing folder. It just depends on the look you are after. Thank you so much for another fantastic video showing us these awesome ideas. 🙂❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Maree... this is fun isn't it! The more I looked at that folder the more confused I got 😆 I think you're right, it goes either way. I hope you and your family are all doing well, I hope they all have a lovely Easter too xo
💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜 white scraps are my least scraps, I use them for everything, because they're white you can die cut and then colour instead of running things through a few times, and another one I like is to make templates for stamp sets that have a coordinating punch, I use my punch to punch out the punch shape, then I use that to know where to pop my stamps on my block or platform for easy stamping and also means less waste, and easier to punch once then multiple (I hope all that made sense??)
I actually made a video on that! This one: th-cam.com/video/jikSqKPcmTo/w-d-xo.html After making this I have moved them into the here: shrsl.com/4gztn only because I was gifted this at Christmas. This one holds less ink: www.scrapbook.com/store/pfs-pf133es.html I have the full set. Both options are great and I would very happily keep them in either.
@@brendaelainewaddell1682 I just used my ATG Tape but I put the tape on the backing piece not the paper I'm adding ontop... I lined it up with the edge of the backing piece in the bottom corner, top to bottom, then added in the pieces that go across ways, I just lifted it up to slide the strip underneath it. So it too is over, under, over under... but with the ATG you can lift it up and down to reposition as needed. Hope this helps.
@@brendaelainewaddell1682 Ahhh yes... I used my ATG Tape and then some glue once I knew everything was in the right place. Any reposition-able tape would work best.
You can use embossing folders either side up. With regular folders, one side looks embossed and the other side looks debossed. With the 3D ones you can hardly tell the difference, I find. It’s fun to mix up the look!
@@tammyb6497 The more I look at it I'm thinking this one is like that... could go either way... which is fab because I did feel a little bit silly!!! Thanks so much for helping me out with this.
It doesn't matter because they are made to use both ways. So no matter what it was right way up. I thought it looked fantastic and as long as you are happy with your end result.. that's what's important.

Great ideas! Thanks😀
Glad you like them Mary!
It’s amazing how quickly white scraps accumulate. Great thing is since they’re white they are so versatile like you demonstrated. Great ideas.
Absolutely!!! There is so much you can do with them. Glad you enjoyed this Jo.
Thanks for the ideas 🥰
You’re welcome 😊

Thanks so much for your very creative ideas, Gwen. All of them were great. And either side of that EF works, depends on your mood!

@@CreatedByGwen I have a few EFs that would work on either side. BTW, LOVE that shirt you're wearing! My colors!
@@mystichris1543 Aww thank you!!! It's actually a dress, and I love the print too. So glad I can use this EF either way, it's like a 2 for 1 🤣

GREAT IDEAS! THank you.
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment Amber 💗
Thank you for sharing your great idea. I swear that my white scraps are like rabbits, continually multiplying 😅
Mine too!!! Like weeds 🌿 in the garden, no matter how many I pull out, they just keep coming back.
Thank you for another great video. I noticed you using the Pink Fresh mini cubes. Can you tell me how you are storing them?

Hi Gwen and all else. Welcome,e
Hi Brenda!! So glad you were able to pop by today 🌷
Question
I am actually working on a woven strip background for a few days now. How did you glu your first strip down?
@@brendaelainewaddell1682 I just used my ATG Tape but I put the tape on the backing piece not the paper I'm adding ontop... I lined it up with the edge of the backing piece in the bottom corner, top to bottom, then added in the pieces that go across ways, I just lifted it up to slide the strip underneath it. So it too is over, under, over under... but with the ATG you can lift it up and down to reposition as needed. Hope this helps.
@@CreatedByGwen I've not had a problem with the weaving but just trying to figure how to fasten it. Yours seemed quite well attached.
@@brendaelainewaddell1682 Ahhh yes... I used my ATG Tape and then some glue once I knew everything was in the right place. Any reposition-able tape would work best.
Please help a creative out!!!.... Did I use that embossing folder right way up or upside down?? I still can't tell if I can use it either side up. 🧐
You can use embossing folders either side up. With regular folders, one side looks embossed and the other side looks debossed. With the 3D ones you can hardly tell the difference, I find. It’s fun to mix up the look!

Not a problem!
It doesn't matter because they are made to use both ways. So no matter what it was right way up. I thought it looked fantastic and as long as you are happy with your end result.. that's what's important.
Oh yay!!! I love this answer because I can't get it wrong. I really love the texture in this one so it's good to know I can use it either way. Phew!!
I get lots of white scraps, but now that I make cards, there are always die cuts to cut and color.
I have noticed that too, it's much easier to use up scraps on cards than on scrapbook layouts.
