Scrap Strips Class

These are the pages that I completed from the “Scrap Strips” class at this year’s convention and I thought I would share. The last one was a two-page layout from class and the other two layouts I had to come up with companion pages. Luckily, I had a bunch of Scenic Route paper so it was pretty easy to come up with the second pages to match. We did the left-hand page on the first layout in class and the right-hand page on the second layout in class. 

I really liked the technique used for this page (above) . You use the border punches on the strip and join the pieces to make a large frame (seen on right-hand page). I just thought it was rather clever and I like learning cost-effective ways to use your supplies.

I thought I would also post a little tip I learned after coming home from the convention… if you do not have a scallop border punch, you can actually use your corner rounder punch. Just take the corner guide off and punch along the bottom, lining up the half circles. I like quick tips like this so that you don’t have to go buy other tools.
