Heart Scrap Garland

FDC

If you use scrapbook paper with any sort of regularity, then you have scraps. Probably lots of scraps. This project makes a great use of those scraps and turns them into a unique and beautiful alternative to gift wrap garland.

Things you’ll need:
Scrapbook paper
Heart (or other shape) punch
Sewing machine and thread
Cardstock or cardboard

Things you’ll do:
1. Set your sewing machine to a medium stitch length with matching thread in both the bobbin and on the spool.

2. Pull a little excess thread out the back and start stitching. Feed a paper heart into the feed dogs and stitch across. Allow the needle to stitch a few stitches and then add another heart. Continue this until you have used up all of your hearts.

3. Trim the thread to a few inches and wrap the ribbon” onto the cardboard for storage.
