Using the Topper or Panel Sheets from Your Paper Packs to create Beautiful Cards

Hello Crafters! How are you? I’m very excited to share the next installment in my paper pack use-up series today! I’m so happy that you’re loving it so far, thank you so much for all of the beautiful feedback you’ve given me!! I hope that you love this video just as much!! For this one I’ve chosen to create 10 cards using the topper or panel sheets that you often find in 12″ x 12″ paper packs. I think these sheets are lovely, and often great for creating quick cards, but sometimes the difficulty is thinking of interesting layouts to use with them! So I have 10 cards for you that I hope will inspire you to use up some of these sheets!

All of the cards that I’ve created here are quick and simple and easy to create for any level of crafter. I also share a couple of tips in the video about pattern matching if that’s something you find difficult. The nice thing about paper packs is that they usually use a certain colour palette which means it’s generally pretty easy to create combinations that are pleasing to the eye. If you’re new to my blog and want to see the rest of the series so far, you can find the blog post on how to create cards using difficult patterned papers HERE and the one for how to make the most of your favourite patterned papers HERE

If you’d like to see how I created all of these cards, check out the video below, or scroll a bit further if you’re looking for the supply list!
