I can't bear to throw out even the smallest piece of pretty paper, which means I have quite a big stash of offcuts that are waiting around to be used. I really didn't make much of a dent in it with this card but at least it's a start!

What a great way to use scraps! I save all of mine too! Stanley looks great here as a polar bear! I like the way you did the sentiment - is that a Dymo label? I never thought to cut the letters individually - looks great and adds to this card's fun vibe!
A great patchwork looking card :) And the bear Stanley Claus is so cute!
Hugs, Swissie
Such a fabulous way to use your offcuts and Stanley is adorable,
I am glad to know I am not the only person who cannot bear to throw pretty paper away!

Hi Kitty,
The letters are actually little Tim Holtz letter stickers designed to look like the old fashioned Dymo labels.
Cheers,
Beccy
I do try to use my scraps, but they seem to reproduce in those overstuffed baggies...
Great looking card, Beccy. You have such perfect corners - I can never seem to get mine to square off.
I have so many small pieces of offcuts that this will barely make a dent in mine either. However, it will make me use some of them!!! Thanks for another great challenge.
I also have stacks of offcuts, and love how you used yours. The challenge now is to get them to fit together as well as yours. Thanks for this inspirational card Beccy. Ursula xxx
Lovely patchwork card. I made a bit of a mess of my card. Added too much embossing folder so you can't see the five patterned papers too well.
Oh marvelous - I luv the bear and that's a great background :-)

Stanley Claus is too cute! I have so many paper scraps that I have saved thinking they may of use at some point. But do I ever think to use them the way you have? No. But seeing what you did with them sure makes me want to give it a try! Thanks once again for great inspiration Beccy!
A fabulous idea to use up all those tiny scraps, Beccy...I have tons of them...well, maybe not tons, but lots of them anyway!
Your Stanley Claus is totally adorable.
Hugs,

I love the idea of a scrap paper patchwork and what an adorable little guy too!! xx
I have a stack of off cuts as well, so much that in the end I bought a set of dies so that I could cut accurate pieces to make patchwork backgrounds. You have made another lovely card
So cute--love the way the patchwork looks behind Stanley Claus!
I love using my scraps like this! I just find the colors and patterns really make a fun background. Wonderful card!
How great that patchwork background ! And the image is also very cute !
Lovely card Beccy !
Fantastic use of scrap paper!!!! I really need to clean out my stash of scraps. It's so hard for me to toss the pretty papers. LOL!!! Thanks for the inspiration, Beccy!!
Simply gorgeous as always and full of lots of lovely details you are so creative x
