Doodlebug Design Anchors Aweigh – 28 cards from one 6×6 paper pad

Hello, friends! I still need to use up some older paper pads that have just been hanging out in my craft room. Next on the list is the Anchors Aweigh collection from Doodlebug Designs.

The paper collection is more on the masculine side and has lots of water related images like sail boats and sea critters. I did use some of the cut aparts included, but also used the Sea Friends stamp set from Pretty Posh Posh.

I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 28 cards.

Because it takes many hours to use up a 6×6 paper pad, this video has been sped up 7 times. The real time recording was around 4 1/2 hours, not including any of my planning, prep, or die cutting time. Watch the video below or click HERE to see it on YouTube.

In addition to using the 6×6 paper pad, I also used 12 sheets of  8 1/2″ x 11″ and 6 sheets of  12″ x 12″ solid colored cardstock.

Cardstock colors – 

Navy blue – Recollections

Yellow – Stampin Up

Caramel Apple – Bazzill

Gold Course – Coredinations

Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. Operation Write Home sketches are the only ones that already provide measurements. For all the other sketches, I simply figure the measurements out on my own, for what works for me. All of my cards are A2 size. Go HERE to see my video explaining how I determine card sketch measurements. All cards are made using Doodlebug Design’s Anchors Aweigh 6×6 paper pad.
