Default Splice together 2 x 4's for storage shed?

Since your stock is 4' long, just build two walls sections that
are 4' in height. Stack one section on top of the other and nail
them together. A little odd, but you are trying to save money.

I am building an 8'x10' storage shed from mostly scrap materials for $$ reasons.
I need to construct side walls 7' high using 2'x4's that are 3'- 4' in length.
Is it safe? If so, how should I do it? Mending plates, kerf cuts?
