I have seen lots of cards where people were using small scraps and liked the results. I had at one point cut up all my 12x12 into the size needed for card fronts. I tried leaving the pieces that were left over all large as possible. My patterened papers were cut to fit inside a cardstock base with 1/4 edge left. That cutting left me strips that were 5.5 long and 1 inch wide. I used those strips for these cards. I have enough to makes hundreds I am sure. :) Of course they would be different colors. I guess I always drawn to Autumn colors first.
