Paper, paper, paper! Another use for all that scrapbook paper you have!

October 25, 2021 by TR Leave a Comment

As a paper crafter there is one thing most of us have a plethora of and that is paper scraps! Today I wanted to share some projects with you that involved Mod Podge glue and an assortment of blank canvases to use up your scraps on!

As you can see in the photos above, one of my favorite discoveries was these paper mache’ mannequin dress forms a few years ago. I created several looks by tearing up paper and layering it using the Mod Podge and a foam brush. I folded the paper to create pleats and coated all of it with the Mod Podge as well. You may find a hot glue gun helpful at this point too to attach the pleated skirts to the dress form. I used excess ribbon as accents.

This moose was a great chipboard piece I picked up several years ago from Kaiser Craft. He turned out so cool. (forgive the grainy photo!)
I used scraps to decorate the wood base for this monster. I worked for a tubing manufacturer and they had a contest to decorate the blobs of tubing that come out of the machines when they purge them. This was my entry that got second place and then was auctioned for charity. It was then donated by the buyer to our local library to display in the children’s section!
I believe this clock was another Kaiser craft find. I just glued on this amazing paper and added numbers cut from another paper!

If you don’t mind having sticky fingers these crafts are a fun way to use up some of your scraps or enable you to create something beautiful showcasing some of that scrumptious paper you just hate to cut up!
