- Recently I posted a video about making more of your 6"x6' pads, the link to that video is below. After making that video I had so many requests for a followup video showing how many backgrounds I'd created and the variations in the patterns that here it is.

HI Ceri! I am so glad you created this video. As a quilter I was seeing the potential for making traditional quilting patterns with the papers. And thinking that would be fun, I saw traces or hints of square patch, flying geese, log cabin etc... even just some of the log cabin variations would be fun as covers of course it would be impossible to miss the centerline with those but a nice piece of transpawashi or something would take care of that. ❤❤❤
Great idea.
I’m a quilter too and saw the same! ❤
Hi Ceri, i watch your videos on my television because of poor eyesight. Even though i watch them all I've never commented. I love all that you create. Such a talented man with many great ideas. I also have dozens of 6x6 paper pads. This is a wonderful idea. I also thought the designs reminded me of quilting . Tfs and have a wonderful weekend. 😊
Oh thank you and yes the are very quilt block in appearance .
Super idea for using our 6x6 pads, really quite lovely designs. Does remind me of quilts. Thank you so much for sharing your creative ideas and designs. Have a lovely day! 💕
I do quilt a little myself and maybe that’s where my idea came from, quilt blocks.
I LOVE the diagonals and triangles!!!
Fantastic
I found it intriguing to see how many versions of 12x12s that you were able to come up with, Ceri! Wonderful!
The continuing story of the 6 X 6 pad is very satisfying, I hope you continue with the journey.
I’ll try.
Reminds me of quilts. Love hearing you say " reckon" , I'm from the Southern part of the US and it's always a treat when a Southern word gets used.
Lol. Thank you
Thank you for showing us the rest! I'm so glad you tried the diagonals! With the exception of the all squares one, they're my favorites!
You are so welcome Diana
The Delightful Diagonals are DELICIOUS! Thanks for showing all work you put into using that entire 6x6 pad! I loved this!
You are so welcome Deb
Love them all especially the checkerboard.
Thank you
The diagonal is so dynamic!
I struggle with diagonals but I do enjoy them in certain designs.
I saw you make the first one. Thank you for sharing the rest. I love them all! The spiral, the diagonal, the 3 inch squares are my favorites. They’re too pretty to cut up.
Awesome! Thank you Martha
The three-inch square 12x12 is my favorite! Great job and thank you sharing!❤❤❤
You are so welcome!m Brooke
I just have to say, what a great way to stretch out those 6x6 pads...
Awesome job!
Thank you Janice.
So fun, Ceri! I have lots of 6 x 6 pads, so excited to give this a whirl. I can’t pick a favorite…just love them all. And a great way to make an interesting journal cover. Thanks so much for the inspiration! ❤️
Gayle I ended up making two journal covers from theses the rest are now with my 12x12 collection to be used at a later date.
What fun Ceri! Paper quilts....Thanks for the inspiration as always.
You’re welcome Sonja
They all came out great! 😍 Thanks Ceri!
You’re welcome
Great idea to use up those little pads of paper we just can't stop buying, lol. Don't forget to trim them from the back, love the element of surprise. TFS Hugs from California * L
Thank you Leslie.
Hello Ceri, I loved the way each page turned out. A really great tip about joining them in a way that would keep them from being in the spine. Hope we get to see some "makes" from these in the future. Thanks again for all you do!!! Blessings to you and yours.
I’ll do my best Melinda
I'm loving your paper pad collage masterboards Ceri
Thank you Donna
Awesome assortment of 12 x 12 papers. 💜💜💜
Thanks so much 😊 Janice.
Thank you for the fabulous idea to use our 6x6 paper pads for. I think I love buying them more than using them. Maybe now I will have an idea to start with. 😊
Have fun Linda
Hi Ceri, thank you very much for making these videos. I have a stack of 6" paper pads and have been collecting them for years. I don't use them much and watching your video has given me great ideas on how to use them up. I've watched your other videos too on how to decorate the masterboards after cutting them up by using washi or labels etc. They look so lovely! Thanks again!
Wonderful news, have fun
After watching the previous 6x6” paper pad video a few days ago I was so intrigued I began making one, which turned into another and another! Yesterday I cut them up into tags and journal cards ready for embellishing. Yay! I can’t wait to try it with book pages and make corner tucks. You’re amazing Ceri. Thank you.
Thank you Joyce, have fun creating.
Thanks for sharing Ceri. Love the pages you created. You really rose to the challenge ❤❤
Thank you so much Carolyn.
These are beautiful. They look like quilts, Vicki
They certainly do.
Thank you for showing us what you created!!
You are so welcome Jodi
Superleuk geworden. Ik quilt heel veel en herken er dus veel in. Scrappy quilts zijn ook zo leuk om te maken. Maar ook in papier ziet het er mooi uit. Bedankt weer voor een goed idee❤
Thank you Agnes
I was so happy to see all the sheets you created from that one pad! TFS
Thanks for watching Karin.
Oh my goodness I’m so excited to try some of these designs! I love my lines and orientations like you, so this will be so fun! Thank you for the inspiration my friend!
Nicole, thank you so much for the energy and passion you put into the world, you inspire my glue booking journey.
Hi Ceri, You came up with so many creative ideas. Love them
Thanks so much! 😊 Julie
Awesome use of 6x6 Ceri, thanks for thr ideas.❤
You are so welcome Terri.
Thank you Ceri for sharing this loved watching
You are so welcome!
Very cool to see the end result! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching Cathy
What a fun exercise!
It was
Fascinating! Love to hear how you think. Beautiful pages, looking forward to seeing how you use these as backgrounds, etc.
Thanks so much Mary
These turned out great!! I am not sure I would have the patience to do this. I do my very best not to buy 6 x 6 paper pads. Thank you for showing us a great way to use them. I appreciate the time you spent doing this.
Thank you so much Paula
Oh my gosh, I just love these! Thanks so much for sharing!
You are so welcome
Thank you for all your work and sharing your knowledge with us! I have so many 6x6 pads😊❤
Now you have another use for them.
Those are beautiful Ceri! TFS❤
You are so welcome Karen
Love these, never thought about doing a cover this way. Thank you Ceri, you inspire so many ideas. Love them all.😊
You are so welcome Deb.
Interesting combinations Ceri. TFS.
Thank you Donna
I love, love, love your designs and idea. I can't wait to try it myself!
Have fun Debra
Great video. So cool to see all the variations. Thank you!
My pleasure Mirianne
This was an amazing video Ceri. I just loved it. Thank you
Thank you
I'm glad you experimented with different patterns; it gives me new ideas for laying out a master board. The 6" seam is only a problem if you are making a one-signature journal out of the 12x12 sheet. I think you can expand your cover options if you score a 1/2" spine to hold two signatures. That said, I prefer sturdier materials for covers, and would be quite content with creating a whole bunch of tags and journaling cards out of those gorgeous collages.
You’re correct thank you
Fabulous idea Ceri! I have many 6x6 paper pads that I can use for this idea! Thanks for sharing!❤
You are so welcome Lori
Great job Ceri… thus was awesome thank you for sharing. I actually tried one after watching your original video and it was allot of fun.
It certainly is Betty.
Lots of quilters here. Hello fellow quilters. 🙋🏼♀️
Hello there
Lovely and very crafty design.
Thank you so much 😊 Lisa
Very interesting, Ceri. I haven't yet jumped into creating journals, but I am using tags and journal cards more often on my cardmaking projects. It's been fun for me translating journal ideas to cardmaking backgrounds. Thanks so much for all your inspiration.
Thank you Janet
Nicely done Ceri!!
Thank you Sue
Thanks for sharing this. I'd never thought about the 6 inch joins on the spines! Now I just have to source Pritt glue here in Australia
I’m sure there’s an alternative brand that’s strong and permanent.
This is a great idea! Thank you.❤
You are so welcome Elizabeth
This looks like so much fun! I’m going to try this. TFS! 👏🏽
Have fun
@@CeriGriffiths I just finished one about 5 minutes ago, it was such fun. I didn’t have a 6 x 6 paper pad, so I cut a 12x12 in half. Now, I just have to be patient until it dries. Thank you so much for sharing this idea. 👏🏽🥰
Excellent! Thank you Ceri 😊 I definitely need to do this. I have many 6x6 paper pads.
Have fun Lisa
Super video! Great lesson and super helpful
Wonderful
Thank you Ceri, I loved these. I can see them being very useful. This is definitely what I was hoping you would show. 🇦🇺
You are so welcome Sandra
These are lovely! They look like quilts! Thanks for following up the last video, it’s really useful. Thanks for this Ceri!
You are so welcome Cheryl.
Those turned out great!
Thank you
Being new to glue booking I got a few 6x6 pads so I could do this and give myself loads of options when I sit down to play so I want to say thanks so much for the tip and even more inspiration
Have fun
@@CeriGriffiths thank you 😊
Love it
Lovely 😊
Thank you! 😊
Love all your masterboards...each one is uniquely beautiful!! 🩵🤎💛
Thanks so much Debbie
Hi Ceri, I really prefer the horizontal and vertical alignment versus the diagonal. I'm so glad you did both because it really cemented in my mind how much I prefer the horizontal and vertical direction of patterns.
Just as I do thank you Connie.
Thank you so much for this follow-up! Honestly (I know I'm crazy), I am tempted to go and purchase some 6x6 pads so that I can use up some of my 12x12's that are just ... not what I wanted! LOL!
Do whatever makes you happy.
Really pretty 😍
Thank you! 😊
Hi Ceri
Beautiful job - giving me inspiration to work with my 6 by 6 pad I’ve had hanging around for over a year.
It’s amazing how easily the small pads are forgotten.
Brilliant 👏👏👏
Thank you Cindy.
@@CeriGriffiths I’m going through my 6x6 pads tomorrow.
Brilliant💖 🤗💕🦋
Thank you Jennie
Utilitarian information - very well done. If one overlaid the pieces, new patterns would emerge with fewer number of finished sheets. All so interesting; all so exploratory; all fodder for creativity.
Thank you Chuck.
Thanks for the follow up. I made one after your last video and will be doing more 💜
Wonderful
Wow!
Fun aren’t they.
💜💜💜
Thank you Amy
💜
Thank you
I love all the pattern paper and I recently thought about the price of the 6x6 paper versus the 12x12... I will only buy the 12x12 due to the extra paper versus the 1 sheet at 1/4 of a 12x12 sheet. In the long run we pay more for the 6x6 paper per sheet.
It's all about doing the math on the price of the paper/ per sheet.
You are so right, I only buy the smaller pads when they’re on sale or in the clearance area.
@@CeriGriffiths that's a good idea!
❤❤❤
Thank you
Hello Ceri,
I really love your're video's and most of all your honesty! And i also recognize the thing called perfectionism 🙈
I am from the netherlands, and i am pretty direct.
I am a newbie at the paper arts and crafts and love the principle of junk journaling.
What i am strugling at is what i do with the different things i make. I am not of the atc cards (swops), but i really like the repurposing of old books. Could you please help me to find my way?
Love,
Cynthia
Cynthia I tend to make things and then gift them at the holidays or for special occasions, I know some people spend the year making and then have a stall at a local craft fair just before Christmas to sell their stuff. I hope that helps.
❤

Hi Cheri.....these videos are awesome and I can't wait to try this technique! THAT 'to-do' list is getting big! What I'd like to know is where did you get the 12x12 container you store them in? I love the size of it ....not too tall to store a few on a shelf!! Thanks!!!
Search eBay for 12x12 storage boxes for scrapbooking I think they are 2.6 in volume, there are other scrapbooking storage boxes similar with a hinge and clip closures but I prefer the loose lid versions………..I also store my gel plates in them.
These look really nice. Have you thought about making card fronts? I enjoy your videos. E from California.
Yes I’ve got a couple of card I need to make.
Wonderful xx As a quilter, I also love these. They'd sell like hot cakes as digitals...but are you allowed to do that?
Unfortunately Paulla no I’m not allowed as they’re not my own designs and I don’t own the licence for them. You could create 6” square gel prints and then do the same thing with those then you could make a digital from it.
The one inch strips would work as a quilt design.
Definitely
Is the 6x6 card stock or little paper? Sorry if this was already asked
No problem, it’s a paper pad and not card stock.
I like #11 the best???
I think we all have our favourites.
Thanks for sharing this. Blessings and hugs 🤗 = no reply necessary
