Since I started getting addicted to junk journals I'm
making more paper scraps than ever!
What to do?
Found a video on You Tube showing how to make a paper snippit roll.
Okay so what is that?
I think of it as a crazy quilt except instead of using fabric you
use bits, and pieces of paper scraps.
For the base I used a cash register roll that I picked up at Hollo's
paper store last week. They were actually giving a stack of them away
for free! So I got about 10 of them.
After I glued down all the bits, and pieces I ran three rows of stitching
down the piece using my sewing machine. I think you can
skip this step as the glue holds all the pieces down, but I like
the look the stitching gives.
So I'm sure the next question is how will you use this?
The idea is to cut or tear off pieces from the strip, and
use them for pockets or side bars in junk journals. I
know I'm going to be making lots of these, as they
are relaxing to make!!!!! This girl loves
collage, and shabby chic plus I have lots of scraps
so this is a project with my name all over it!
