This card is perfect for using leftover strips, scraps, and zip strips! I love to create cards that I can use up scraps! I hate wasting! Lol First, before you begin gluing strips, I used the toffee shimmer brush to splatter the top half of card. You can also use a water brush and toffee ink pad to pick up ink in the lid and splatter your card.  I cut different sizes in length and width of the paper. Widths are 1/4", 3/8", 3/4", and 1/2". I laid the strips across t...
