Hello friends! My church recently sent me a card request for Welcome, Thank You and Blank cards. I’m always happy to provide handmade cards for them to use. I searched through my craft room for a fun paper pad and came across an older collection from Bo Bunny called Stay Awhile. It was released in 2017 so it’s probably no longer available. I love the pretty colors and I think the designs will work for gender neutral cards. The 6×6 paper pad included 36 single sided sheets.
When I find a paper collection I’m planning on using, I’ll pull out coordinating cardstock and store it in a bag with the paper pad. Apparently I had intended on using this collection after I first purchased it, but other things may have distracted me. Lol! That only happens to me, right?
I can happily say the paper pad had been turned into a set of cards. It’s the third 6×6 paper pad I’ve finished off this year. Yay! Now to figure out which collection to use next. I’m sure I have another older collection that I should tackle.
I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 35 cards.
I did not keep track of the cardstock I used this time. The only color I know for sure is the blue. It’s called Admiral and is made by Bazzill.
Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. All my cards are American standard A2 size. For sketches that don’t include measurements, I simply figure the measurements out on my own, for what works for me. Go HERE to see my video explaining how I determine card sketch measurements. All cards are made using Bo Bunny’s Stay Awhile 6×6 paper pad.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.
I appreciate your kindness and support! 💗
Great job using a fun looking paper pad to fulfill the request. I found a bag with cardstock and the paper pad sitting at the bottom of the pile that was on my counter recently, so I can safely say you are not the only one! LOL Thanks for sharing and have a lovely weekend, my friend. 🙂
That is the perfect paper pad for welcome cards, especially the paper with the little mugs. I am sure your church will love them! I have paper pads dating back to 2013, so you are doing better than I am. I have found my tastes changed since then so I should probably just donate them before I get buried under a pile of 6×6 pads. TFS!!
