Great ideas! TFS
I keep all of my scraps sorted by color in 12 x 12 pocket folders. More often than not my cards and embellishments are made from scraps! Great way to save money and recycle!
Any diecuts that I don't use or that are the wrong size I often save for my 6 year old daughter. She loves to craft cards and collages with "momma's leftovers".

I also keep all my scraps sorted by colors & patterns in folders. Then when I need a small scrap, I find the one that will work and use it on a card or LO. Enjoyed your video!

Thanks for the chance to win! I do not own that cartridge and would love to add it to my library!
I have a large accordian style envelope type folder that I keep all of my scraps sorted by color in. It's great especially when I'm working on my Disney Cricut cuts and I need just itty bitty pieces for eyes, lips, faces...etc.

Great little tip video. I lovethat we can all come together and share all the little tips and tricks that we use. Thanks for sharing and good luck to all!!
I also keep all of my scraps. I have a file box that I have sorted by color and pattern. I liked you tip on cutting the strips to size of cards so than they are all ready to go.
I also keep ,y scraps, but like to make inchies out of them, as you glue many matching colored or themed paper onto chipboard and then cut into inchies for embellishing, or use a sizzix die to make cutouts, letters for titles, or just about any embellishment you need. Can cut on cricut as well...Ronnie
These tips are both great! I like the video showing tips that is sometimes much easier than just reading them. Thank you for sharing.

Love the stickles!
Over the holidays I just organized my scrap papers by putting all my patterned papers in one folder, my seasonal papers in another and my cardstock in one. I like the idea of taking it one step farther and organizing my cardstock by colour! I better get busy lol!

Great tip!! My organizational tip is to put your scraps sorted by colors into a divided folder ( I use and old CM folder). Whenever I make cards, I always check my scraps first!!

What great ideas. I enjoy just cutting different size circles and crumpling them up and then layering them on top of each other (descending order) and adding a brad in the middle. It's even more fun when you add stickles :)

I hate wasting paper so I save and organise my scraps. I'm always looking for ideas to use them. Thanks for sharing your great tips!
I love this idea. I use a accordian file to save my color paper so when I need a certain color its there.
This is such a great idea! When I finish a card, I take my scraps and sort them. I have a bunch of little wooden wallet sized trays that I keep tiny embellishments in. Once I have sorted my scraps, small pieces will be punched with butterflies, hearts, etc. and sorted in the little wooden trays. Longer strips are kept for the cuttlebug quilling flowers and sometimes I will just take a couple of hours and cuttlebug the strips. Then others are kept for cards in a stack for doing embossed border strips with the cuttlebug too. It really keeps things clean and neat! Of course, I don't always use everything, so whenever a loved one comes by and we craft together, they always go home with a big bundle of scrap cuts. Hee! Hee! Love your blog! New follower! http://cricutcouple.blogspot.com
Great tips! They turn out really cute too! TFS!
Wow I would never have thought of that, although I do keep cut off's. And they are cute
Thanks again for you awesome tips! I do sort my scraps in colors and keep them in a 12 x 12 pocket folder! Thanks for a chance to win:)

Great tip!! I hate throwing away paper that could be used again..even if it is a small piece. Already started punching :)
I use one of my Jetmax components just for scraps sorted by color. I t-r-y and only use scraps when I am making a card.
Great tip! I think adding glossy accents would make those embellishments look like epoxy stickers.
Such great tips...that is one of the reasons I love your blog. TFS!!

I totally need to organize my scraps!
I'm a huge fan of creating my own embellies whenever I can! I always save my scraps and try to use the relief of something I've cut by masking with it or otherwise.
Those are super fun tips!!!
Thank You for the Information!!!
Great quick tips! TFS.
