CAS(E) this Sketch #13



Hey friends,

I wanted to pop in to share a card I made for the latest CAS(E) this Sketch Challenge #13. I was able to use various patterned papers that I had in my studio. I started buying these 6x6 patterned pads at AC Moore and love them (My Mind's Eye, Basic Grey and etc). I find that I use them more than when buying single 12x12 individual sheets. I think it is all the variety and the various sheets in the sets that work so well together, whether it be the patterns or colors. What do you buy? Individual sheets or 6x6 pads?

Have a great day,
Brandi

I have tons of individual 12x12 pages from when I first started crafting and had no idea what to buy! LOL! Now I'm all about the 6x6 paper pads. I love the papers you used for your awesome card! Thanks for playing along with CAS(E) This Sketch this week!
