Chipboard
Don't let this fabulous material end up in the bin! Harvest chipboard pieces from packaging, books and boxes and use the large, intact pieces to create mini album and journal covers. The smaller pieces are great for die cutting embellishments - providing the material isn't too thick - while the tiniest pieces of chipboard are an excellent alternative to foam tape. Just add glue and sandwich between the surface of your project and the embellishment or image you want to pop-up. It's inexpensive, does a great job, and best of all, reduces waste.

I'm with Terrie, I never thought to use chipboard as a substitute for foam tape, but you are so right! That's an excellent idea I plan to start implementing. Thank you for sharing.
I had friends save cereal boxes for me as I do not eat cereal - I finally had to say stop as I was running out of storage space - LOL - Yes have used it in place of foam tape and it works grand! Great for cutting dies as well - great tips here Beccy - makes create chipboard by gluing several pieces together - always like to recycle - Thanks for sharing!
