Making card bases/ Another 6x6 Stash busting idea-

I am really excited about the #smashourstash2021 challenge this month of anything goes. I have been trying to come up with more ways to use all the paper in my bins. This idea is simple to implement and you can use two sheets or more per card. I really hope this inspires you to get into your stash and smash those oldie but goodies supplies.
Here are the two very crafty and creative ladies who cohost this challenge.

In my humble opinion your cards are true originals. I appreciate your tips and tricks and thank you for sharing.

[@brendagates9368]

I am 67 and am relatively new to card making and you are definitely my style🥰🥰🥰. I just love your cards please keep up your wonderful videos 🥰🥰🥰

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Brenda, Well I am pleased as punch that you found me and are enjoying my content. Card making is such a fun and somewhat addictive hobby. I just love making things that are used to spread joy into the world. Lol Thanks so much for sharing your kindness with me. 🥰✂️📄💕🌈

[@cynthiaakacyndsmith6539]

I like how you addressed the hater. Some people irritate me. You were perfectly kind and strong in what you said. Thank you. Also the bits and pieces you use up. Awesome.

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Cynthia, I try not to trigger anyone, but that is very hard sometimes. Even in the most innocent or sincere of circumstances we can trigger others. I figured I might better just apologize and move on. I have an older video on my channel that you might really enjoy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJXGhJyQaN-aeKs I just couldn’t help myself. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your kindness with me. My heart says 🌞🌈😘🥰🤣

[@dcn9550]

Wonderful cards that make a scrap user's heart sing. 😊

[@BittyPenny]

Yay!! That’s my goal for sure. Thanks for spending some time here with me. Happy Crafting 🥰🌞🌸🌈💕📄✂️

[@patsmith1324]

I just found this video, and like you I have a nonending stash of paper! I regret so many trees had to die to furnish my hoard! I see there are many ways I can try, and hopefully reduce my stash. I love the free way you let yourself do the cards. I have been so structured with my cards, and need to relax and just have a good time! Thanks for the video.

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Pat, That’s the spirit. Just cut it up, glue it back together and have a blast. Somebody is going to love the results when the paper gem is sent out. Thanks so much for watching ✂️📄😎💕🌻

[@Kencarsonisbutt]

I absolutely love the way you used pattered paper on these cards!!! GENIUS!!!👏🏻❤️🙌🏻

[@oceandreamer1958]

Fun video. I guess I don’t understand public negativity. I wish there was no thumbs down. I think if you don’t like or enjoy a video, you should just move on. I guess that when people are unhappy in their own lives, they often want to take us with them. Sad. People are much more brave behind a screen. Anyway, you always inspire. I’m glad I found you!

[@BittyPenny]

I am so glad you’re here and find inspiration on my channel. I try to just focus on the all the kindness and support. 🥰🌈📄✂️💕 Thanks so much for your positive contribution and engagement.

[@sharenseiple6913]

I am very inspired by you. I made 12 cards yesterday from a 12x12 paper pad that I have had for at least 2 years. I made ephemera from the individual squares that were included with paper strips behind them, stickers that were part of the pack and I used nearly all the paper! I have several 6x6 pads that I can use, too. I’m so excited to get going on it. Thank you!

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Sharen, you are such a joy. I am so delighted you found my channel and that I get to be inspired by you. Yay for using up all those goodies. Sounds like you just made 12 new little blessings to send out in this world that needs more light and love everyday. I would love to see your creations. If you ever post to Instagram please tag me. If not, no worries I am dreaming of their beauty. Hope you have a crafty weekend with lots of joyful moments. ✂️📄🌈🥰💕

[@kymlafontaine1162]

If the pattern paper is thick enough. Then yes. Love to use them as card bases. These are so sweet.

[@BittyPenny]

Absolutely. Flimsy card stock is no fun on card bases. Lol. So glad you enjoyed the video.

[@donnalam1942]

It is such a joy to watch you design your cards. Thank you for sharing and please continue doing what you do...making us happy. ❤️😊

Hey Sweet Donna Lam, I just love getting to have darlings like you around, watching, encouraging and sharing. 🌺🙌😂🥰💕

[@carolwolfgang7020]

I’ve never thought about using pattered paper as card bases, I love it, I made some templates out of some thin old paper so I can remember how you did this I can’t wait to make cards this way! TFS

[@monicalinerode1783]

I find it interesting to make card bases out of pattern paper especially if the paper is heavy enough to stand up to display. Making the 6 x 6 paper into an A2 card size was very informative because I never thought of doing that. I find it enjoyable to buy pattern pads when they’re on sale & the colors or pattern interest me. I like the one idea that you did when a card base was made out of pattern paper then adhered to a white card base. I’ll be doing this card base idea to see what I feel about it. I won’t know until I try it. Thanks for taking the time to post.

[@lynneclark7902]

Here’s a poem my favorite high school math teacher recited one day : “Ours is not to question why. Just invert and multiply.” Enjoyed watching your video. And if I may add: There was no need to apologize, in my opinion. I didn’t see the video in question, but from listening to you, I am fairly certain that you meant nothing malicious by your comment.

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Lynne, Loved the poem. I loved the some of the ways we were taught with rhyme, rhythm and poetry growing up. It really helped the information stick. I hate the idea of someone being offended here and so I figured it couldn’t hurt to do all that I can to keep kindness at heart. We all need grace and it’s an act of kindness to give it when we can. 🥰📄✂️🌈💕 I am so glad you’re here. Such a fun exchange.

[@angelinafernandez8425]

Wow, you make it look so easy..So you know I will be whipping out my pads.

Yay, Girl! That’s the spirit! Go get those pads out and tear it up. Happy crafting!

[@wendywilson1736]

I also like using my dies and punches on patterned paper, especially the smaller scale from 6x6 pads. The paper patterns just seem to add texture to the punches.

[@HowcrossCastle]

This is a fabulous video; I love seeing your process, and I love the encouragement to cut and tear and glue and stamp and color... I tell people all the time: today my plan is to play with paper. Thank you.

[@BittyPenny]

Oh my goodness, I am the same way. I even put it in my tag line. Bitty Penny Plays with Paper. I am so glad you’re here because there is a lot more where this came from. 🌈💕✂️📄🌈

[@debbi408]

Love how you decorated theses cards both inside and out ( I enjoy doing this myself!) Please continue to share your thoughts and opinions as it’s either inspiring (learn a new idea) or reassuring (someone else likes to do this too!). I enjoy the talk/process videos so much more than the “music-overs” as it is more personal....I watch craft videos for the ideas/ process but also because of the person that shines and shares themselves.💕

[@BittyPenny]

Thanks, Debbi. You and I are kindred crafters. I am so glad you are here and enjoying my content. I LOVE hearing others process and creative inspiration. I sometimes question if I should talk for 25 minutes, but that’s just me. I am here to share and connect. I am so happy you feel the same way. I appreciate your encouragement and kindness so much!!🌸🧚‍♀️🌞👯‍♀️💕

Thank you for the inspiration. I usually use white or Kraft bases, I love the pattern paper ones. "Just do you"

[@holleydowns9385]

I cannot imagine anyone getting offended by you...they should just go to another channel if they do not like what you are doing...you are definitely a GREAT card maker! I am so glad that I found you!

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Holley, It’s funny because I am kind of missing a few filters especially as I get older... I tend to just say whatever I am thinking. Honestly, I am in a mindset of reminding myself that my opinions are just my opinions and there are so many other perspectives that I can’t even comprehend. I was surprised that I had offended someone, but it did make me more self aware, which isn’t a bad thing unless it corners me in some way. Thanks so much for your vote of confidence. I know I am not for everyone in crafting and otherwise. 🤪 But I love the connections I make and wish everyone well as they find their people. Lol. Thanks so much for watching! 🥰✂️📄🌈💕 Happy crafting

[@IT-fr4wb]

I have recently discovered your channel, and I LOVE your style; I love all the chat, instead of just instructions, and so many practical ideas for using your stash. I also love that you tear off your double sided tape when you use it instead of perfectly cutting pieces - I have been doing this and felt bad that I was cheating and being lazy, but it's so fast I love it. And now it's out there on a you tube channel, so I can do it guilt free haha. Looking forward to seeing heaps more of your videos, thanks so much for sharing 😀

[@BittyPenny]

I love every bit of this. Sounds like we are cut from the same cloth and I am so glad you are here. Happy New Year!!

[@dianyannie1210]

I'm so glad I found your channel. You inspired me with those pattern paper that turned into the card or even card bases. I often stuck to use beautiful pattern papers to use it for cards, in the end I'm such a hoarder. Next time I need to use my pattern paper I know now where to look, just jump into your channel for inspirations. Thanks Bitty, and keep making your great cards . I love your video! xx

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Dian, You have warmed my crafty heart and put a smile on my face. Thanks so much for sharing your kindness and encouragement with me. I released a video today that would be a great way to stretch your most favorite papers. You could get five card fronts from one 12x12 sheet. Four cards to give and 1 for you to keep. Lol. Thanks for spending your time here with me. 🌈💕✂️📄🥰🌈

[@gayle1055]

Thank you for your time and for sharing. I found this very useful as I have lots and lots of 6x6 and 8x8. Maybe this will help me to put my pretty papers to good use. In my opinion I ont think negative comments should be left. The people who do these tutorials do them for NO CHARGE and if it is of no interest then turn it off. I have seen to many good hearted loving crafters left feeling hurt. It is no right so please take no heed Bity Penny; help doing what your doing 💕 Gayle

Hi Gayle, I could not agree more about the comments. I truly am blessed to have the encouragement and inspiration from kind people like you. It gives me the gas to keep going.

Like you said, "It's just paper crafting!". Unfortunately, some people just like to put others down. I love your style and yes!!! You have inspired me to create some cards in a new style! I like to tear paper too, for grassy hills, mountains, or beaches. I am subscribing!!! 😊😎👍🍋

[@kathleengary6979]

Please don't apologize. Do what you want to do!

[@BittyPenny]

Well I don’t mind apologizing when I feel people are hurting, but I am also never outwardly addressing anything personal except my journey. I have always been extremely sensitive when it comes to dealing with people. In fact, it kept me from doing KZbin for four years. Finally I came to a point where I accepted that I would have haters and naysayers, but sharing and connecting was more important than those negative side effects. Now I get to connect with lovely people like you and so it is worth it. So glad you watch, comment and share kindness. Thanks so much! I appreciate you.

[@amycamburn]

Love this!! Thank you so much for sharing this process!! I have so many 6X6 paper pads to use! I never thought to use the pattern paper as card bases because I always have it stuck in my head that you have to use at least 110lb. paper to make a sturdy card base. I absolutely loved how your cards turned out!! especially with the stamping on the inside and the little dots you used around them!! so many new things to try!! I am grateful to you for inspiring me :-) Have a Beautiful week!! ~Amy (Lewes, De)

[@heatherhuang6404]

This video was perfect to watch during my lunch break. I don’t think I commented about not covering up beautiful paper, but I felt relieved to hear it since I feel the same way. My cards are often simple for this reason and I worried I was not sophisticated in my card making for that reason. Won’t feel that way now.

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Sweet Heather, Wow, I needed to hear this. I felt bad for my commentary and I admit that my delivery could probably be more polished at times, but sharing is important. This reinforces that our journey, perspective and sometimes process is not a solo adventure. We have similar questions, struggles and joys. I have always been drawn to beautiful papers even long before coming to card making. My mother use to always say that shopping for school supplies was my favorite part of the new year and she was not wrong. Let those papers shine. 🌞✂️📄🌈🥰💕 Hope to see you tomorrow at Craft Roulette. I think it will be lots of fun... it always is.

[@heatherhuang6404]

Bitty Penny I would not miss this Craft Roulette for anything, I’ll be there!

[@heatherhuang6404]

I just watched an older video of yours in which you said that you are stamping less and using paper more because you are so drawn to it. We cannot be the only ones so your statement about not covering it up was for those of us who feel that way. Keep being you and we can pray for those who are easily offended. I am praying for the one now. See you tonight!

Hello Mama Pillow, I think that is a totally “normal” feeling. It’s probably why I have such a hoard to bust through now. Plus I can’t lie, I love shopping for craft supplies. I have started telling myself that will ruin and waste away sitting unused. I have started to think that God blessed me with this for a purpose and that I should make lots of fun things to help brighten the world a little even if it’s for a moment, a day and that has given me a new license to cut up all the paper. Use all the gems and embellishments. To take all these blessings surrounding me and put them back into the world to bless others. Plus, it makes room for the new blesses. Lol happy crafting and after all... it’s just paper so go wild. ✂️📄🌈🥰💕

I love the free form of these cards. I need to try this method as I usually am very precise. Thanks for sharing.

I loooveeeee Stampin up stamps and punches! I also love the leaf and sprig punches. They make embellishing so easy. I also like that u used patterned papers to create your own a2 card. I will have to try that. I will definitely be smashing some of my stash. TYSM for sharing your tips and creative process. 💗😊

[@BittyPenny]

Hey Helen, Stampin Up is pretty awesome. I don’t mind Destashing lots of brands, but their stuff is near impossible. Lol I even keep all the oldies but goodies. I really wish they would come out with more leaf pattern punches for us. Like you said they make embellishing so quick and simple. It feels so good using up my paper pads one by one, but the problem is I buy them two+ at a time. Lol 😂✂️📄🌈🥰💕 Sending you big crafty hugs!

[@inastoltz6813]

🇦🇺 I’ve discovered you today! Love love love what you are doing! I was busy with a project and immediately applied your techniques! Thank you 💐🇦🇺

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Ina, I am so delighted to hear this. My hope is to inspire and connect so it is amazing to know it happened today. Thanks so much for watching and I am glad you are here. 📄🌈✂️💕🥰

[@debt.2210]

Hi. New subscriber here. Like your cards. My style is different, but I picked up lots of ideas from your video. Thank you. 🌼

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Deb T, I am so glad you enjoyed it. I love watching all different styles too. It’s fun to see what makes others tick and how they use the same products, but in different ways. I hope I can continue to inspire you. Stick around because I tend to flip my style on a dime depending on my mood. Lol

[@monikadavis6390]

Thanks for the ideas! I am a stamper and LOVE stamping but I also have a bad habit of buying designer paper and not using it...

[@BittyPenny]

LOL. We all do, Monika. Welcome to the most popular club in card making. :) I have been on a mission this year to love it and chop it. I will be doing even more in 2022.

[@x-tinacraft-haulic3785]

Thanks for taking us on this card journey. I love making cards and i sell and give alot of them . I think the main reason I buy 6 x 6 paper is for cards but I usually use heavy cardstock for the base. It was alot of fun to see how you put yours together and judge how they evolve . tfs

[@BittyPenny]

Hi X-Tina, Thanks so much for watching. I usually and cutting up my paper to add to my bases as well. It was fun to explore this approach because I could mimic what I usually make with a 12x12 sheet. 🥰📄✂️🌈💕 Have a great weekend.

[@mangobaby2]

I probably have several 6 x 6 paper packs to so I think I’m going to just watch this again and follow as you work and try to do as much with my paper pack

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Robin, Fantastic! I just organized some of my paper today and I need to keep this going myself. Happy crafting and have a beautiful week. ✂️📄🌈🥰💕

[@elsieb3176]

Thanks for encouraging us to use up that paper! It's not like they're going to stop making paper, is it? And when I use up what I have....it'll be time to buy more in different patterns! I have some 12x12 one-sided paper that's too flimsy for card bases and need to figure out how to use it up.

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Elsie, I like using those 12x12 flimsy papers for my junk journals and notebooks. They make fantastic journal pages. Thanks so much for watching.

Lol. Thanks so much, TR. That is very kind of you. 🥰📄✂️💕🌈💛

[@dogloverlmh9197]

I love your designs!!! And I love that lemon and bird stamp set! If you see this... Where are they from?

[@monicamenesecitas]

I loved all your creations, can you tell me where did you bought the stamps?

[@qwispery]

Is there a certain weight you use for the card bases? I had some 12x12 paper I was thinking of using and it seemed a bit flimsy. I love the way that mini slim line turned out, it is so pretty. 😄 You are going to be up to 1000 subscribers in no time!

[@BittyPenny]

Hey sweet Tina, I sure hope you are feeling better and crafting again. I would say at 65lb pound paper is probably as light as I would go for a base. When I use lighter card stock then I just layer up more... no surprise there. Lol. I find that a layer on the front and one on the inside does a nice job of making lighter bases more substantial. Hope I get to see more of your crafty adventures soon. ✂️📄🌈🥰💕📽🖥

[@jaditelady173mary4]

OMG! This video gave me so much inspiration. I tend to use a much "structured " style of cardmaking...which is putting me in a creative rut. I will use the torn paper or rustic style more in my scrapbooking, but I have always been afraid of that style in cardmaking. But your cards look fantastic! I also learned something today with the "dots " around your images. It makes the image look so artistic that fits so well with the torn paper design. The heavens have opened and the sun has shown the light to me! Lord knows I got plenty of paper to work with! Do you sell stamping up products? If so I'm very interested in that label punch you used in this and last months video. I have been trying to get some ideas for some masculine cards, so I think that this style will work for some. All your ideas are so fresh and inspiring. Thanks again for your time and sharing...Stay healthy and happy my friend.

[@BittyPenny]

Thanks so much, Mary. I too am trying to free up my mind to embrace more ways to use my supplies. Fun ways to construct and be open to whatever happens at the craft table. I feel like I am embarking a style for once. I have always played with lots of styles, but I really feel like I am coming into my own... at least for now. I know it could change any minute like the weather. Lol. I do sell stamping up. I can send you a catalog if you like. I will reach out you on IG. Thanks so much for inspiring me.

[@jaditelady173mary4]

@@BittyPenny great I saw some stamp sets too I am interested in. I watch different people who sell it, but I don't have any designated rep. And since you have been so kind to help me...I would love to go through you for any purchases. So go ahead an message me on Instagram and I'll give you my info.

[@kathyshortt6982]

What is the paper pad called?

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Kathy, It’s a really old paper pad from Citrus Twist from 2014? I had it in my stash and it was time to use it up. ✂️📄🌈🥰💕
