My Mind’s Eye Happy Days – 32 cards from one 6×6 paper pad

Hello friends! Now that the holidays are finished, I realized I needed to work on some Thank You and General themed cards to give to a local charity. I chose the Happy Days 6×6 paper pad by My Mind’s Eye. I love the blues and greens with a just a touch of peach and yellow. There are some floral designs, but overall, I think the papers are prefect for masculine or feminine cards.

The cactus designs were my favorite and it gave me the opportunity to use a fun cactus die set from Lil Inker Designs. 

I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 32 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 just over 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 8 sheets of  8 1/2″ x 11″ and 15 sheets of  12″ x 12″ solid colored cardstock.

Cardstock colors – 

Dark blue – unknown

Lei Flower – Coredinations

Deep Lagoon – Coredinations

Moonstone – Coredinations

Easter Grass – Bazzill

Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. Operation Write Home and the newer Mojo Monday 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 My Mind’s Eye Happy Days 6×6 paper pad.
