Hello friends! I fell in love with the lovely colors and designs in Paper Rose’s Eucalyptus Dance collection and decided to turn it into a set of cards. I think it’s the perfect collection for masculine or feminine cards. I kept the cards on the simpler side so I could donate them and used mostly general sentiments.
I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 19 cards.
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 2 sheets of 8 1/2″ x 11″ and 10 sheets of 12″ x 12″ solid colored cardstock.
Cardstock colors –
Peeled Paint – Coredinations
Forest Moss – Coredinations
Moody Blue – Bazzill
Dark Seas – Bazzill
Java – 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 Paper Rose’s Eucalyptus Dance 6×6 paper pad.

Love these cards and layouts.
These are beautiful cards, Kristie. You certainly have an eye for putting things together.
What a beautiful paper pad. Those colors and images are lovely. And your eye for selecting just the right sketch and paper for the card is remarkable. These cards are fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing.
You did a great job with this paper–the colors are beautiful and you had just the right contrasting card stock. I wouldn’t have been able to do anything with this, so it was great to see how you went about singing all those soft designs. And I love that it was a small pack since I am one to get overwhelmed and/or bored about half way through! Paper Rose has such great products! TFS!
