Do you have leftover scrapbook supplies that you'll probably never use? I know I do! Don't throw the items away or let them take up all the room in your supplies folder, use them to decorate other parts of the house.
Here's an example of what I did with a few leftover supplies:
BEFORE PHOTO
I found this wall plaque at a discount store.The middle is a cermaic plaque that slides out of the frame and came with a printed leaf on it.
I took the cermaic plaque out and glued layers of torn handmade paper to it and, to finish it off, placed a skelton leaf in the middle.
