We all have 'em. Lots and lots of scraps. Whether it be paper scraps,
ribbon scraps or fabric scraps, this month's challenge is to share a
clever & unique idea for using those little bits that sometimes end
up neglected. I couldn't be more thrilled with what the team came up with for innovative uses of all their little snippets. Please join me in exploring all of their innovative ideas and perhaps even get your creative juices flowing on this New Year's Day!

I hope you enjoyed all of these amazing projects and the inspiration they provided. Not to mention the tips & tricks the girls went into detail about as far as sorting & storing all of those little scraps are concerned. If you have a few moments today, I urge you to pull out a few of your scraps and either utilize one of the ideas mentioned here today or come up with your own idea for using any of the leftover bits & pieces you have laying about. I've inserted a Mister Linky box below so you can share your work! We would love to see what you whip up! Happy Stamping!

Just found this blog – and hey, I did the quilt thing a couple of days ago! Hows that for coincidence? Well not really, but it shows that we are all thinking the same way at this time of year! My quilt card is blue and a few posts down!
