- I came up with some different ways to use those full page 12x12 images and larger cut-a-parts as I was working through my Love & Devotions pad by Recollections.
Let me know if you have any additional ways to use these parts of a 12x12 paper pad!
Thanks so much for watching!

great layouts and card ideas! tfs!
Thank you!
Great ideas!
Thank you!
Thanks for this video! Lots of inspiration. I thought about making gift bags or gift boxes with the large 12 x 12 images.
I have made bags with pages like that as well. It’s a great use for them.
Great ideas!! Thank you for also showing the ‘fail’ because it’s really helpful! Also, it would be immensely helpful to show the full page before you cut them apart. It helps to visualize a bit better. Awesome tutorial & ideas!
Thanks!
Thank you for these wonderful ideas!
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
Some great ideas. TFS!
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
I love this video tfs
Thank you!!
Aw man. I wish you would have been able to get the puzzle together. My granddaughter would have loved that. Great idea nonetheless!!
It might have worked better if I had cut the paper and cardboard separately.
Great ideas. You can use the puzzle pieces and alter for your scrapbook pages. Altering these are really fun! Pinterest has some great ideas.
Good idea, thank you!
Thanks for the great ideas!
You’re welcome!
Super thoughtful of you to show the layout of what you ended up with with the orig. page below! Love all of these ideas!
Thank you!
Thanks so much for sharing! I always wondered what to do with my big pads!
Hopefully you got some good ideas!
I came across your channel today and I’m glad I did (I’m now a new subscriber). These are great ideas.
Thanks! And welcome to my channel and my journey to actually use my hoarded paper!!!
I got stuck on what to do with those silly pages and my kids actually gave me an idea... Their favorite game at the time was "memory", where you have two of each picture and you flip them over one at a time to see if you remember where both of them are. (I think sometimes it's called match up or match two or something like that.)
Anyway, I had two of each of a bunch of the 12x12 papers so I just glued them to cereal box cardboard and then cut them in squares with my paper cutter. The kids turned them over upside down on the table and then took turns turning two at a time over to find the matches. Kept them busy for about 27 minutes lol. (They actually played with them for quite a while, a few times.)
Many years later, if I have a print that I think my grandkids will like I go ahead and do that again for them. Now though I cover both sides of the cardboard before I cut it so it's a little bit cuter.
I've also taken some of them and used mod podge on a canvas to make home decor pieces as gifts.
Those are great ideas! Thanks!
I love your ideas, especially putting them on canvas. TFS. 🙂
Brilliant ideas, thanks for sharing 🌺💕
Thank you!
love the scrapbook layout you did, very cute! Your puzzle idea was great! Sorry it didn't work. I had made some 3 x 4 cards with some of the smaller pieces I had left so I decided to just use these big pages for the envelopes with my punch board. 3 x 4 cards use 6 x 6 for the envelopes so you get 4 envelopes per page with no scraps! It was a great way to use up my scraps and these at the same time.
Oh, that’s a great idea! I always forget about envelopes.
Great idea! Thanks! I have a good chunk of a pad of basic patterns in various colors that I could use for envelopes for 3x4 cut aparts from an Echo Park "Hello, Spring!" paper set. The colors are very close! Maybe I could use some on birthday cards. We have 3 great nieces with spring birthdays coming up, plus one with an August birthday. There are cut aparts that could be used for summer, too! Plus stickers.☺️
You have awesome ideas for A2 cards & 5x7, etc cards. I’m not a scrapbooker so your suggestions & ideas really help! Thanks!
Thanks! Glad I could give you some ideas!
I love your videos, they always inspire me to craft.
Aw, thanks! I’m glad I can provide some inspiration!
OMG! That completed puzzle cracked me up! But great idea! I may try that one day. Thanks for all the great ideas!
Ha ha! That puzzle was a great idea but a total fail. 🤦🏼♀️
great video thanks for the ideas
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great suggestions and tips. Love the cards. That puzzle piece idea is great. Going to think about that one. I don’t have a circuit, but I love the idea. TFS
Thank you so much for sharing your ideas.
I loved the scrap book pages, cards and the puzzle. A great idea, sorry it didn’t work like you planned.
Thank you! Sometimes you have to live and learn. 🙂
Very nice
Thank you!
Very cute TFS ✉💓💖
Thank you!
Glad I pressed the wrong icon... what a fund of super ideas - going to give it a try right away. Thanks sooo much.
Thanks for watching!!
I love the puzzle idea. I don't own a jigsaw, but that would be the best way to make the cuts needed. Thanks for sharing all your ideas.
Good idea!
Love your attempt at making a puzzle. Even though it may have bombed lol, if your girls enjoyed your efforts then it should be considered at least a partial success 😊 and like you said you learned some things for future projects!
I don't know why I've never thought tp make gift bags out of those 12x12 sheets! That's a great idea 😁
Thanks! And that’s a good point on the puzzle. I was just bummed it didn’t work! I haven’t tried gift bags yet, but I hear they are fun and pretty easy!
I have a punch I bought probably 10 yrs ago. It's called puzzle shaped by EK Success - the Whale of a Punch. I used it yrs ago to cut up a picture of my grand children and sent pics on card for them to put together. Loved your 12x12 page idea. Thanks for sharing. Sandy Davis
That’s a cool idea!
You did a great job of cutting down the 12x12 sheets and the 6x6 cut aparts, to get them to fit on cards! Really fantastic, and I really liked how you laid them out on top of the intact page so we could see where they came from, and what was left over. One thought is that the larger rectangle from the red bordered page (around 5 min 30 seconds) could easily be turned into a tag just by trimming the white end into shape. The other thing I've done with both whole 12x12s and 6x6s, as long as they aren't directional - i.e. don't need a specific direction to be up facing up - and have nice designs in the corners, is turn them into the kind of gift card holder or tea bag holder that starts with folding a square into a triangle. Like the paper cups we made as kids, good for one time use? 12x12s with nice border designs can also be made into 2 booklet style gift card holders, folded from 4x12 strips, with the middle strip discarded or repurposed. Not sure if I'm explaining that well, but let me know if not and I can link some videos of the type of project that I mean. 🙂
Thank you! These are all great ideas!
I love using the cut a parts for some quick cards. Joyce
Yes, me too!
I make shadow boxes out of all my big image papers. They turn out beautiful!
That’s a cool idea! Thanks for sharing!
great ideas I always struggle with using those cut apart tfs hugs
I struggle with the big ones too sometimes.
Thank you for the great ideas, now I know what to do with those pages. New to your channel.
Welcome to my channel, Sandy! Glad I could help!
I appreciate that you show how to use those big pages as cards. I am stuck with a ton of large print 12 x 12s
You definitely need to find some used for those pages!😁
Love the puzzle idea!! I don’t have great luck cutting things out with the silhouette. I’ve never attempted chipboard with it. TFS 💙💙💙💙
I’ve had the deep cut blade forever, so thought I’d try it out. Obviously, I need more practice!😆
Great ideas!! I have a lot of them that are new and I need to use my 12x12 paper pads up!! Only buy the 6x6 pads for cards. No more scrapbooking!!
Thanks, Dawn!
Great ideas,Beth. I've never made a puzzle before. I wonder if you could take a pre-cut puzzle and glue the 12x12 paper onto it and then flip it over and cut just the paper with the Xacto knife or whatever? Just a thought. Everything else looks wonderful, and at least you had some fun with the girls. :) TFS
I probably could have done that. Would have been easier than cutting the puzzle the way I did!😆
Thanks for sharing. Had no idea what to do with the full image pages. Actually got the paper pad on clearance from Michaels for $1.99
You’re welcome! I got mine on clearance too. Couldn’t pass that up!
I was hoping someone would do a tutorial of ideas on what to do with those full size sheets! Thank you so much!
You’re welcome! I think we’ve all struggled with those at times.
♥️♥️♥️
Thanks, Candy!
I started to use the idea of framing them in the 12x12 shadow box and change them each month. I’m going to try the puzzle idea.
Good luck on the puzzle!!
All great ideas! Thanks for sharing! I like the puzzle. I’m not very adept with using a craft knife either, but there is this blade called a finger blade. It’s a lot more comfortable and easier to use. It has a hole to slip your finger through, like holding a pencil. It gives me more control with the blade. Ordered mine on Amazon and it’s by Fiskers.
Yes, that finger knife is on my list to get this year! I was really wishing I had it when I cut that puzzle!😀
Hello Beth - Debbie here. I think there is a puzzle die set as well. I’ll have to search for it.
❤
Thank you for sharing your projects. I've thought about making a puzzle with my Cricut and appreciate hearing what you tried. With the Cricut, I think I can set it to cut the image multiple times before removing the mat. I don't know anything about the silhouette.
Yes, the Silhouette does that as well. It was set to cut through 2 times but it didn’t help. I think I just made it too thick. Live and learn...😀
I think if you try cereal weight chipboard that may be easier to cut in a cricut machine or a Brother scan ‘n cut.
Probably. I was trying to make sure it was sturdy but I think j went a little over board.
a lot of postcards are 4x6 - that may work for some of the larger cut-aparts, too
Thanks for the idea!
Thanks for all of these ideas. I like the puzzle idea--too bad it didn't work.
Thanks! Yes, I was bummed about the puzzle.
Maybe try cutting the 12x12 paper by itself since we know it will cut that, then cut the chipboard piece and if that messes up you have more chipboard vs 12x12design paper. Then the tedious part glue all the cardstock puzzle pieces to the chipboard pieces once u figure out the cut settings. 🤔
Yes, that probably would have been a good way to do it. 🤷🏼♀️😀
Thanks for sharing! Those are great ideas! About the puzzle would it have worked to cut a thin chipboard first, and then separately cut patterned paper and then glue them together? I really don't have any idea, just a thought ☺
I’m sure that would have worked! I just didn’t think of it. 🤷🏼♀️😀
I’m making notebooks out of my full images. I’m folding letter size in half and getting the Center images for covers
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Hi I am new to this, do you have any videos showing how your making these book
@@debrasmiley6859 I can make one
Thank you so much, I will be watching for the video.
Mabey if you glue a paper on fun foam, you could cut a puzzle? That would still not be too bendy i think.
I can try that sometime. I may also need a deeper blade for my Silhouette.
Thank you Beth for this video! I find it difficult sometimes to use those pages and you have given me more ideas again. The leftover Valentine page looks like a wreath and even though I don't usually put anything on my door, if I had that one I would, just because it's so lovely (but inside - or even on my bedroom door and see what my husband would say!). TFS Nicole
I’m glad I could give you some new ways to use those pages. Thanks for watching!
Hi Beth! Thank you very much for sharing ideas what to do with the full pages of the paper pads! I am trying to kill my first paper pad after being inspired by all your videos. I am working on a paper pad that is driving me nuts! At the same time I want to just keep working sometimes I get stuck specially because there are a few pages that I really don’t like it. What do you do when you find a paper that you really dislike? It’s not even good for background (pink paper with eye lashes printed on it).
Thanks for the advice and keep up with the amazing crafts!
For those patterns that you really don’t like, can you turn them over and use the white side (assuming they aren’t reversible)? Maybe for matting layers or to stamp on? I’ve done that before too.
If you're at all interested in mixed media type art, you could use those pages as a base for mixed media work. By the time you've layered paint and stencils and stamps on top, some colour might show through, and even the pattern but just faintly - we call that "texture." 🙂
Bourbon Creek Crafts thank you for the suggestion!!! They are white in the back and can use for stamping sentiments and mats! Brilliant idea!
PJ P I didn’t think about that at all! I usually don’t do mixed media but I might give it a try! Thank you for the suggestion!
@@paulistanaemoregon6617 I hope you do try! It could be a "masterboard," that you could then cut up and use in a variety of projects. I like the neat and tidy card making type crafting sometimes, but mixed media is more like playing was as a kid. It's intuitive and a little bit messy! Think finger painting, but upscale. 🙂 Lots of videos out there about masterboards, if you decide to go that route.
Silhouette also has an option for double pass so it cuts everything twice.
Yes, mine was set for this but it didn’t help. I think I just made it too thick.
Great ideas. Too bad the puzzle didn't turn out like you hoped, it was a good idea.
Thanks! Maybe I’ll try the puzzle again sometime.
Good try tho on the puzzle!!
Thank you!
Good ideas. I have been wondering about cutting puzzles on my Cricut. 🙄I wish the paper pad makers wouldn't such cute prints on the back of the cut apart pages.
If you were just cutting the paper or maybe used thin chipboard or even thick cardstock, it might cut better. Those home decor sheets in pads have become a thing these last few years.
Great video! I use them on canvas and add extra embellishments. I have also seen them be made into pocket folders and books.
Thanks for sharing these good ideas!
Great suggestions and tips. Love the cards. That puzzle piece idea is great. Going to think about that one. I don’t have a circuit, but I love the idea. TFS
Thanks! You could do the puzzle with a craft knife and with more basic cuts and that would work too!
