Using inspiration and ideas from the youtube video below, create a paper scrap sampler for one partner. Your cover should be about 6x4", so it will be easy to cut a 4" wide stripe from a 12" piece of paper then fold in half. Please include a minimum of 10 paper pieces inside. You can include items from your stash like patterned cardstock/paper, book pages, artsy painted paper, tea dyed paper, etc. No plain papers, please! Your papers do not need to be all the same size. It's always nice to give a mix of smaller and bigger pieces, thus going along with using up those scraps. I love doing these with some peeking out the edges as I think it adds interest. In the video, she has stapled her papers in the cover, but you are more than welcome to staple, stitch, or punch holes and string twine or ribbon through. You also do not need to finish the cover exactly as she has, but please lightly decorate it in some way. I love adding a little pocket to the front to tuck in a couple extra paper goodies. Completely sender's choice, but it's always nice to take a peek at your partner's profile to see if there's something that would be extra special to them. Feel free to find more inspiration on Pinterest or Youtube. The main requirements here are a finished cover size of 6x4 and including at least 10 assorted papers. Happy swapping! Image: Hanny Tromp |
