Easy three-strip background

I’ve been using up pretty paper strips in my scrap bin and making a bunch of card backgrounds that I can easily grab to create a card whenever I have a minute. You will feel super thrifty if you try this!

  • Cut three strips from different coordinating patterned paper
  • Each strip is 1.25 wide by 5 inches tall
  • Arrange for best color/pattern placement
  • Adhere so they form a mat with equal margins on all four sides
  • Use Liquid Multi Glue so you have a little time to nudge pieces into place
  • Add a focal point piece and a sentiment and you’re done!
