Hello friends! Summer is just about finished so it’s time to start making Fall cards! Yay! Autumn is my favorite season.🍁 I love the cooler temps.
Since it’s been several months since my friend Jenn at Scrapbena Creations and I have done a video collaboration, so we decided to use Echo Park’s Fall collection. Jenn purchased the Collection Kit, while I purchased the 6×6 paper pad and several 12×12 sheets. Together we made a total of 71 cards. So much fun!
You can watch Jenn’s video HERE.
I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 41 cards.
Because it takes many hours to turn a paper pad into cards, this video has been sped up 5 times. The real time recording was just under 6 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.
Or, go HERE to watch my video on Rumble.
Here is the cardstock I pulled before starting on the 6×6 paper pad. I always pull out way more cardstock than I ever use. I list the brands and colors if I have the information. Some of my cardstock has been in my craft room for many, many years.
In addition to using the 6×6 paper pad, I also used 9 sheets of 8 1/2″ x 11″ and 16 sheets of 12″ x 12″ solid colored cardstock.
Cardstock colors –
Scarlet – Coredinations
Wax Lips – Bazzill
Yellow – unknown
Pumpkin Patch – Bazzill
Desert Coral Dark – Bazzill
Deep Navy – Darice
Brown – Bazzill
Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. All of my cards are 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 Echo Park’s Fall 6×6 paper pad and a few coordinating 12×12 sheets.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.
I appreciate your kindness and support!
What a lovely collection of cards. Full of warmth and coziness. Congrats to you and Jenn being able to collaborate again! So fun. Fall is a beautiful season and I look forward to seeing all that you plan to share. This is a fabulous start. 🙂
Thank you, Jeanne! I love doing collabs with Jenn! She chose a great collection for us to use this time. 😊
Hi Kristie! Quick question for you…I know you’ve got lots of cardstock in your stash and it seems you almost always have just the right colors to match whatever paper pad you’re working with. Sadly my stash isn’t that big and I’m having a hard time matching coordinating cardstock. I only have the big box craft stores in my town and the quality of their cardstock isn’t has nice as some online. I tried ordering some online but color matching online is hard – what I see in my screen isn’t always the same as the product when it comes. Where do you buy cardstock from and surely you must run out of certain colors in your stash – so how do you then color match with the new paper pads? Thanks in advance for taking the time to respond! I just love you cards and videos. Thx for such great inspiration!!!
Thank you so much Julie! I appreciate your kindness. 😊 I do own a ton of cardstock. When I don’t have the right colors, I’ll take the paper pad to my local Joann’s. They sell Bazzill, Darice and Coredinations cardstock there. I mostly purchase the individual 12×12 sheets. I never purchase cardstock online unless I already know what the color looks like in person. There are times I still don’t have the perfect color though. Then I’ll turn to specialty cardstock.
Thx for the info about matching cardstock! I’ll be heading to the big box store soon with paper pad in hand! Thx again for all the inspiration. Best wishes!
These cards are absolutely delightful! Thank you for sharing your talents with us!
After watching this, I ordered the Make it by Marko ATG stand and love it, but apparently forgot to leave a comment! I LOVE these cards–you outdid yourself! What a super collection to share with Jenn, too! Thank you!
Are you loving your ATG holster? I think it’s amazing! I love doing collabs with Jenn. She is the sweetest person and we always have fun. If only we could actually craft together in person.
The ATG holster is seriously a game-changer! I LOVE it!!! I still craft on top of everything, but at least I know where my tape gun is! Maybe someday, you and Jenn can craft together. Maybe crafting over Zoom? Not the same, but might be fun!
