I have been busy making cards for our soldiers. There is an organization here in Washington that will collect hand made cards and make sure they get to our troops over seas so that they have cards to send home to loved ones. You can find their website here http://www.totally4troops.org/ .
They do have some rules such as no metal. ACK! no eyelets, no charms, no brads, oh my. So I will be blinging mine with lots of glitter. I am going to try to use my scraps as much as I can to make cards. I am also using stickers and items I probably wouldn't use on a page, but look really nice on cards. I have tons of cardstock pre-cut from my Stampin Up days that I will be using up. I have probably made about 30 cards or so. It feels really good to be able to give back to the men and women who insure that we live in a free country.
Give it a try if you have lots of scraps and paper just sitting around. Here is a picture of just a few of the cards I have made.
