Hi All! I am sharing a fun birthday card using some leftover scraps from my Jackson paper packet. I shared this same card on my previous posts last week using the June SOTM. This card is fantastic to get rid of those extra scraps! The card looks great with random pieces of paper and almost looks like washi tape was used instead of paper!  First, I take some scraps out of my paper packet and cut scraps 1/4"-1" and lay them across my card base on a diagonal. Be sure they are long enough to go completely across the card and the edges are hanging over the card. I like to coordinate colors and mix and match my patterns.  Second, trim all edges with your scissors. Wow! Doesn't it look amazing! Now I stamp a sentiment inside a oval, square, or circle to add to the center of your card. This card is really easy peasy! Add embellishments to your card and you have created a "Diagonal scrap" card!  Here is the shopping list for this card: X7195B Jackson paper A1173 The Best...
