So what to do with these pretty scraps?

Make cards, of course.

Mini cards are so fun, so easy to make and such a great way to use your scraps.  Your kids can help -- get out the stamps and embellishments too for even more fun.  Then, they can send their cards to their friends, their grandparents, their cousins -- anyone who needs a little pick-me-up in the mail.

Or, you can save them for when the kids go back to school next week and send them as little notes in their lunch boxes.

Your mini cards can be any size you want -- I prefer to cut strips that are 3x6, which become 3x3 cards when folded down.  Even mini-er 2x2 cards are cute, or try something that's not square, like 2x3 or 3x5.  It's totally up to you!
