Scrap Paper Scratch Pad

This is such a great way to get rid of your scrap paper stash that's taking up room in your scrapping area. I wish I had a better tutorial to tell you how to make one of these but I don't so just pay attention because every little detail matters....just kidding. This is pretty simple.

Stuff You Need:
1. Nice collection of scrap paper (Plain or Patterned or both)
2. Paper Cutter
3. Paintbrush
4. Elmer's Washable School Glue (I'm sure any other type of glue would work but this is just what I used)

How to:
1. Cut your paper into 3" squares
2. Keep cutting until you have a nice stack going...the height of your scratch pad is completely up to you.
3. Stack your papers evenly and then spread the glue along one side of the stack w/ your paintbrush.
4. Let the glue dry and hold the stack together w/ binder clips or rubber bands. I used ponytail holders.
5. Add second coat of glue - let dry.
6. Add a ribbon or another finishing touch.
7. Enjoy your new scratch pad!!!
