[@annekildegaard9666]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who hoards paper! I keep telling myself that I MUST NOT buy more paper, but somehow a new pad always finds its way to my shopping cart! Thank you for the inspiration, Ann.

[@bonniereed4218]

I felt so smug the other day when I walked out of the store without buying any more paper pads, even tho they were 50% off! I have so many--thanks for inspiring us to use them.

[@charlirobinson1548]

Lol ... lol ...

[@handmadecardsbytoni]

😂

[@missychan63]

I know I'm late to the party but that's how I roll... How many of us saw this pink paper pack that she used and immediately thought, "So cute! Where can I get it?"? Never mind the fact that this is a video about using what we are already hoarding, never mind the fact that we have more paper than we will use in a dozen lifetimes.... I absolutely need THIS one! 😂

[@michelles9117]

Guilty hoarder here too! Lol. I browse online or in a store and buy pads...then discover I already have something similar in my stash. I will never use all my supplies but I'm loathe to part with them! These ideas are great. TFS 🤩

[@sweettreatsoverload4296]

You can search youtube a lot of paper crafters are using what they have

[@beverlypope7179]

Oh Michelle, I totally get what you’re saying! I have a good twenty years of saved paper and just don’t want to get rid of any of them!

[@AmazinGraceXOXO1]

Let me tell you something. I’ve been on a marathon the last few days, watching a bunch of your videos. And I am now obsessed with your channel. Thank you for all the inspiration!

[@roxanneklinger3828]

Yes Ann, you are not alone in this. We all have packs of paper that haven't been opened. Guess it is time to use them. Love the envelope idea. And the cards are very inventive. Love the idea of doing a few more paper scraps and pads videos. We all have stacks of scraps we could find ways to use.

[@carolward6833]

I love paper, just love it, when I really can’t make any more cards I just go through a pile of papers as if I’m reading a book, I am sure I am not the only one who does this. Just the feel of paper is enjoyable. 🤭🇬🇧

[@peniandrews165]

oh my Im so glad to see someone who is real, that looks like stash!. Im so addicted to paper, I love it , and when it gets low I start saving it cause I love it and will use it for something special hahaha thanks for this video, and for being real!

[@paulawray6210]

Wonderful ideas! When the stores run the paper pads "buy one get one 50% off" I think it is an evil plot! But I fall into the trap quite often. Thank you for some great ways to use those pads up!

[@carolynpicken6949]

It’s an addiction…I love patterned paper. Makes me happy just to look at them.

[@paulinedavin3904]

Fantastic!!! You've made me cast away the guilt of having pads unused and also given me the confidence and motivation to create sets of cards and made making the box seem really easy. I just love watching your down to earth videos that create ideas for all levels of crafters to try. Thanks so much. G. Bless and thankyou. 💐💐💐🙏🙋🏻‍♀️

[@kathygray1711]

Great ideas thanks

[@andizak797]

It's like you busted into my craft room and are calling me out. Rightfully so! Thanks for the ideas.

[@stormyswann6177]

Thank you for your honesty, sharing all you have unopened. I'm with you. Let's use them up together girl. Thanks for keeping it real

[@pattyd3205]

SNAP!!! loads of unopened/unused paper pads here as well😀 Love this idea, especially decorating the envelopes as well. I often prepare different Sentiments, pop foam on the back. Leave whoever gets the Card Box to add the appropriate sentiment where they want. Thanks For Sharing 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💕

[@hazelkinvig-paul8231]

This is a terrific idea Ann, you are so inspirational! Another great gift idea, I could never think up these ideas, and yes, I have loads of these paper pads (and some still in their wrappers.) I think my TRUE hobby is probably 'collecting supplies', rather than the actual card making! 😮❤❤

[@donnapayne9526]

You are not alone in your paper hoarding. I have loads of paper i have nit used and plan to so do this year.

[@debbieduran6791]

What a nice set. Paper hoarding is a given for card/scrapbookers!

[@wendaprior6160]

Just love the simple paper pad ideas. Thank You.

[@joanboots5381]

Oh how I wish I had found you before I started buying all sorts of things that I thought I had to have to paper craft. Loved these definitely make a lovely gift. Love watching your channel.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Bless you Joan. So glad you have finally found me though xx

[@2CraftySeniors]

Thank you, Ann, for once again showing me a few tips and tricks and giving me encouragement to get making cards. I've put it off lately, but really... it makes me happy to make them so I need to just get to it. I'd love to see you do more with paper pads. You always have such good ideas and this is something that's important to a good deal of card makers. :) The way you kept it simple in this video was great. I tend to overwhelm myself with choices and then I don't do anything. Making one paper pad and one die the focus helped me to rethink the way I make cards a bit. When you were cutting the black backer for the one card, I thought it would look really pretty cut with an edge die. I have some of those from Spellbinders, so I'm going to give it a try. I think the black against the white cut with an edge die would be gorgeous and then keep the patterned paper edge plain. Just an idea... As for hoarding papers... I've only been making cards for about 2 years. I haven't had much time (or money) to buy as many paper pads as you have, but I still have things that haven't been used sitting here, staring at me, telling me they want to be used. LOL I really like the idea of decorating the envelope like that. I also like the idea of just making abstract types of backings... like the triangles on black. One of my problems is, I don't have many plain coloured card stocks. I have a few sheets, but not many and they are 12x12 size. Guess I need to get those cut down to usable size.

[@sue5560]

That is absolutely gorgeous! Lovely gift idea! You have beautiful projects and your videos are easy to follow! Thanks for sharing your talent!

[@tracywilcom7665]

I love that the cards were simple but pretty

[@mrscb5303]

🫣I don’t even craft…but I just loving listening to you and watching your videos!! 💚 You creativity is amazing!

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Haha thank you so much :-)

[@jeanwestackroyd2966]

I have countless paper pads Ann ! All 12x12's. Don't ever need to buy another... You have encouraged me to try, some of them I have had for many years. Thanks for the wake-up, now, need to get started !

[@cindyn3383]

Hi Ann! I was ooohing and ahhhing when I saw your beautiful paper pads. So much prettiness.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Thank you Cindy, I have the 12 x 12 and 6 x 6 to show you all yet!! I will do more of these paper videos xx

[@gloriajordan3966]

The cards and the box are great thank you for sharing you are great at what you do xxx 👍🏻💕👍🏻

[@adelebuchanan3649]

Great idea, I seem to have collected loads of paper pads lol, don't know when that happened, i'm going to try this. Thanks Ann for another brilliant video.

[@roxannetucker5813]

That KS for the tips on making some nice easy to assemble cards and I especially like the card box!

[@margarettallett762]

I keep saying I'm not going to but any more papers, or stickers, or dies, or stamps or stickers.... AAAAHHH a paper crafting, creative juices overflowing addict here!!

[@cisvolk]

It was fun to see and hear you craft again, thanks.

[@judystophel1904]

Ann, you have such creative ideas. I just love this one. Keep them coming. ;-)

[@reneeallen1118]

So simple yet quite striking. Thanks for sharing!

[@marlawilliams6628]

Those cards came out just gorgeous! Great simple idea.

[@Cards4Cancer]

Truly stunning, I wasn't notified about this video, and hate I missed it. Makes a wonderful gift.

[@patinahendricks]

Beautiful cards! Love them!

[@mzp6620]

Yay! Great ideas, now I only have 5 million papers to go. 🙃 I've started incorporating patterned paper as a background for my cards. I usually ink blend or do some kind of specialty background behind my main element, now I'm just throwing patterned paper back there. ha ha I need to use it up!

[@margaretg2097]

Oh, what a great idea! I just looked at mine thus morning trying to find papers for a 70th but modern card for a lady (yeah, I'm flummoxed!!) So thanks for sharing this, Ann. You may well have lit the much needed flame under me ❤ 😍

[@beverlypope7179]

Your nails are so gorgeous! Very different but so pretty! I really like your cards too!

[@vanderbrowning1821]

beautiful set of cards and a lovely box xx

[@lesleybaillie2039]

🌺 Absolutely gorgeous set Ann love it xxx

[@venitabucceri8435]

You are definitely NOT the only one with a box FULL of paper pads, dear Anne❣ This was SUCH a helpful video❣❣❣

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lynndyble426]

Love it Ann. I have quite a few. Now I can get cracking and use some of them. Love your ideas & inspiration. Thank you xx

[@ZombieQueen819]

What a great gift this would make! ☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@susanmiller592]

Wow! Gorgeous!

[@lynnmandeville1163]

Such a great idea! And pretty too. Thanks Anne!

[@megjamieson3881]

Excellent gift idea Ann and a super way to use up those paper pads 🤩

[@marilynvirella6392]

Great way to use up those papers. Thank you for sharing.

[@forestofthings]

You're not alone in the craziness of paper hoarding! But I must say, The Paper Boutique Papers are my most used papers in my stash! I use them all the time in my albums! But I stopped buying 12X12 patterned papers because I just have way too many papers! I wish this year I will use them more! For me, if it's not on my table, I will never remember to use it. So I have them on a big pile on my desk and that helps a lot!

[@michellechristopher6468]

I like your die cut Just a Note 😊. These are nice cards, love the box for it. TFS

[@angelwooten1985]

So creative!!!! And beautiful!!! Your talent is amazing!!!!!!🌷

[@giusicoluccia6594]

[@catherineharding5358]

Such an easy way to make a beautiful card and used up paper! TFS!❤️🇨🇦

[@ann-mariecox6512]

Hi Ann, guilty as charged. Great ideas and I hope you keep on doing videos like this. Thanks for ideas. Take care xxx

[@cindyn3383]

Beautiful cards and box. I love the idea of putting the finger holes in the sides. Tyfs

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Thank you Cindy xx

[@agneschrismer9946]

Kitties know all the right places to climb on. Thanks for the great video

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Haha it was so funny, hiding behind my Nuvo Drops!! Lol xx

[@kasmclaughlin5831]

Ann, I love how your mind works!! TFS

[@gemmalou101]

Fab idea I'll admit I buy paper pads because they are gorgeous but never use them this is great way to start using them which is something I must do running out of space to hoard them all if I'm honest lol xxx

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Haha yes I no the feeling. They will get bloody used lol xxx

[@PamMcGarvie]

At least the papers your purchased matched and you could make cards with what you had.🥳🥳

[@michelegourd5742]

Ann, this was so very helpful!! I have a ton!!! And have not used it for a long time!! This will help me to get my stash down!!

[@ellieb9188]

They are all beautiful!

[@robinbrothen2305]

Love these cards and the box to go with it!!!!

[@christinelaver942]

You're not alone. I have to use up my supplies as well.

[@ediewilson4043]

These are so pretty and easy to make. Thank you.

[@kristinluvsdogs]

I seem to be saving all of your videos!! You are teaching me so much! Thank you!!

[@mimi31ga]

I love these! Please make more content about using up paper pads AND paper scraps!

[@lynnemorton6055]

Hi Ann, I think we must all collect paper pads. Great idea to make up the cards as a gift and all perfectly lovely. Thank you as always xx

[@ruthjames715]

Great cards and box, Ann. I think I could wallpaper my whole unit with the paper I have. I will definitely try these.

[@franmonka2671]

Absolutely beautiful project.

[@ritatharp5238]

Thank you for sharing. Great idea 💡! Love from the heart ❤️ of Illinois USA 🇺🇸

[@joycemoore6949]

Simply amazing and beautiful!

[@tinabarwick4143]

Love this idea, a box of cards as a gift! Paper pads, here I come!

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Have fun!

[@mumblyburg940]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! What gorgeous, simple cards and so quick to put together! I love how clean your designs are. Very inspiring video. :)

[@sueb1828]

Great idea! I plan to put on my schedule to use paper pads once a month like making Christmas cards once a month. TFS.

[@venitabucceri8435]

This is a good idea, Sue... and beat the Christmas rush in December❣🎅

[@bonniewyke1750]

I have no idea what I’m doing but it’s so much fun doing it along with your tutorials. You are just adorable! Thank you for all your efforts, they are greatly appreciated.

[@lindadavies6464]

Again you have given me some great ideas, BRILLIANT 🤗

[@bettyswinford5886]

Love the paper pads being used.You make beautiful cards.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Thank you so much!

[@cynthiacleland9576]

Love these and love making boxes. I find that cutting both the top and bottom layers to the same measurement as you want the top then cut an 1/8th inch sliver from one side and one bottom before you do the scoring gives a pretty good fit.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Normally they turn out pretty good but Today was a bit tight lol xx

[@deeannafreshwaters3282]

I really like the "just a note" die.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

It's so pretty :-)

[@maplelassuk]

Oh dear, I'm guilty too, and I have older ones I've partly used🤦. I have the pads you do!! I liked your box method...I take a sliver off one long and one short side of the base before scoring...it helps the lid fit! Great idea, I'm going to paper pad bust my stash!!!♥️

[@lorrainedurgee1761]

Your so right - I have tons of paper pads I haven’t used -so I love this video..

[@sheilaperl4155]

Perfect project for a gift!

[@hankejoosen4029]

Such a great idea! Gorgeous 🤩🤩🤩

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Thank you!! 😊

[@deeannafreshwaters3282]

Loads and loads. My system is to pull the pads and packs apart, sort and use the paper I don't really like first. Then I group the paper by color and or print coordination. It's the small very themed paper I struggle with.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

Fab idea x

[@dawngupta3159]

This is bloody brilliant, thank you, xx

[@selenaupson7773]

So pretty. Thank you for sharing.

[@Taitcreates639]

Ann,these are my favorite kind of videos, have a lot of 12x12 pads to use. It is time, I thank you for the video, keep ‘em coming.

[@angelaprentice4179]

I have so many paper pads as well lol...but will start to use more thanks to the inspiration from you. Thank you Ann x

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Thank you so much Ann, I really really enjoyed watching you create not only the cards but box as well too. I really really love ❤️ this, and I really really appreciate your tips and tricks with making the box. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Definitely guilty of not using paper pads up! These are a wonderful card gift set! Thanks for sharing your talent & creativity!!! Hugs!!!

[@charlirobinson1548]

I think my reason for not using my large 12×12 per pads is ... they are just too big to keep handy so end up being stored. So I forget about them until I do go looking for for something I'm sure I have and ... poof ... there they are! Oh ... I forgot I even had this! I do however, also have a couple drawers full of the little tablets ... that I also forget about sometimes!! Lol ...

[@shirleydesrochers3319]

FABULOUS DARLING! Love it.

[@M1326]

Love this! I know we are not alone in this ... I had shelves and shelves of unused, barely used, used once paper and supplies... from all my time on DTs... I was overrun by it all and I just cleared almost all of it out, all but a very few pads. I have since decided to use it all up before I will buy another paper pad... and your video is just what I needed to see. Thank you.

[@PositivelyPapercraft]

That is a great idea!! We need to use it up then buy one x

[@leisacarnahan7647]

Love, love, love it!
