Hi, all!!
Welcome to our next installment of *New Product Spotlight !* And this week we want to feature our amazing 6x6 paper pads.
These pads are amazingly versatile and we know many of your card makers have found their unique characteristics already (and love them for it!), but we wanted to get the word out to those of you who might not know what all the fuss is about.
BasicGrey's 6x6 paper pads feature all 18 papers in each collection (the 12 patterns and 6 solids) times two! Yep, that's right! You get two sheets of each paper in the collection in one paper pad! Not only that, all paper in the paper pad is the same high quality cardstock weight as our regular paper in the collection. And you can get it here for just $5.99! it's an amazing value and so convenient for storage and use.
And here's our favorite part about the 6x6 pads. The designs on the pages are shrunk down to 25% of the original! They aren't quartered designs where you end up missing an element! The designs are reduced to fit the new 6x6 scale which make their proportions just perfect for so many things!
Here are a few examples of our 6x6 pads at work.
In this first layout by our staff designer, Kelly Goree, Kelly features our new release (shipping now!) Lemonade by cutting the paper pad into 2"x2" blocks to make a fun grid! She did a similar thing on the beautiful Wisteria layout, but on a bit bigger scale with 4"x4" blocks. What fun!
Now for all you card makers (or wannabe card makers out there). These 6x6 pads are right up your alley! No more worrying about a design overpowering your card - with the reduced design size, they are made just for this smaller scale! In these cards, both by Kelly Goree, Kelly used the 6x6 pads to entirely cover the front of her card to make a dramatic statement. The card on the left features the regal Eva line. The one on the right, the summery Lemonade line. The final card is our bold June Bug line, the other spring release shipping now!!
And just so you mini album lovers don't feel left out, these paper pads are also for YOU! The majority of our awesome Chocolate Chip mini albums are smaller the 6"x6" making the paper pads perfect for your creative needs! Here Kelly Goree shows you the use of Offbeat in her mini "Betcha Didn't Know" and the feminine Porcelain line in her mini, "Love Notes."
We hope this gives you so many ideas to get out there and play with your own paper pads and we can't wait to see what you create!
Until next week!
Happy Scrappin',
BasicGrey
