I folded A4 pieces of stiff paper into 3 panels and cut out stars and Christmas tree shapes in the middle panel. Then I stuck the fabric scraps on the back of the card to cover the empty shapes. Then I folded back the first panel to cover the rough side, and glued it down. Hey presto, one Christmas card! You can use scraps of thin fabric to make greetings cards.

I also keep scrap fabrics and don't know what to do with it. I have often given away large chunks of fabric I don't want anymore to craft vendors at places like the Farmer's Market for free. At least they can reuse it, make it into something cool and make some profit. But, as for the little bits of fabric, Oy, what a chore. It's hard to think of something nice and/or useful to do with it other than chuck it in the garbage. Thank you for posting this!
