One Leafy Sew Cute Calendar Paper, Three Ways

Included in the October kit is this adorable KI Memories' diecut paper.  I maximized its usage by stretching it out onto three projects!  It takes just a little bit of pre-planning.

First of all, there is this layout.  I trimed two sides (top first, left next) of the paper and used the rest of the big sheet for this layout.

Next, I used the trimmed off edge (top) and used it as a border on this next layout.

Lastly, I had enough left over and made this card with the left edge of the label paper! 

So you see, one label diecut paper is stretched onto three projects, one way to maximize supplies!  Do you have any tips on stretching your supplies?  Please share!
