10 ways to use “Ugly” scrapbook paper with Three cards along the way/ Ugly paper hacks 4 card makers

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I used ugly very loosely here because honestly even when I don’t LOVE the paper I can still find something cool about it. Let’s face it, we can’t LOVE it all... not even Maggie Holmes although it’s usually a 99% chance that I will.
Anyways, I wanted to share 10 ideas of how I might still put that paper to use. I hope you find one or two that work for you.
Happy Crafting!

    Hello everyone, Thanks so much for all of your kindness, ideas and sharing. I appreciate all of the support and encouragement. I came up with one more idea. I think I will keep a stack of these close at hand for exploring fun fold designs and card size alternatives. I thought I would share it. ✂️📄🌈💕🥰

    Probably 40 years ago, my MIL gave me what I thought was an absolutely hideous shirt. I liked the colors but hated the pattern. She was so proud because she said it would go with everything that I wore. Darned if she wasn't right! I had pants, skirts and jumpers that this shirt worked perfectly with! I could make at least 8 outfits with this shirt! It soon became a favorite because as long as that shirt was clean, I could be out the door with no thought at all. That gift revolutionized my thinking on what I perceived as ugly. Later when I purchased scrapbooking kits and there were parts that I thought were unusable, I remembered that shirt and challenged myself to use those items. That perception made me much more creative. And.. like that shirt, some of the projects that I made as a challenge became favorites.

    I have always loved quilts but I am not a quilter. So I have used scraps of papers that I didn't want otherwise and cut them up to make crazy quilt design or log cabin or just strips or squares with colors that are pleasing to the eye when fit together. Then I use a black marker to border the card and place a sentiment or whatever in the center. Some I have put a little v stitch around each to resemble the sewing and actually framed and hung on the wall. Thank you for the idea of using the white side for printing sentiments on the strips that will definitely be something I will do from now on. Have a Blessed day.

    Another idea that kind of goes with your stenciling/gesso one, is emboss resist. I have used a fine-line background stamp, clear heat embossed onto a busy pattern, and then inked with a dark ink. The ink covers the pattern wherever there is no heat embossing, & helps to break things up. Thanks for all the tips. Take care & have an awesome day! :)

I like your tips especially using them to strengthen other papers or emboss the reverse. I actually embossed some really ugly paper and it was so beautiful after it got the treatment. When people see those cards they always ask me about the paper. They don’t believe it was a “stinker”. I still have a piece and when they see it they’re in disbelief. Thanks again for all these fantastic tips!

    A cool trick using any kind of craft paint (possibly inks too?) is that if you put just a couple of drops on various parts of the page, and quickly use an old gift card to scrape that drop across the paper, you can get a nice, thin, and semi-transparent glaze over the pattern, similar to the look of the gesso (but in whatever colour of paint you used, obviously!)

They each gave me some things from their stash. It really got me started. You have such a good heart and when you mentioned about making up a pack with some ugly and some nice paper, it really reminded me of how I started out.

    Does your envelope punch board only make square envelopes? I have the We Are Memory (etc.) board with such a T I N Y, F A I N T, dimension panel, but I’m pretty sure that E V E R Y dimension given is “same” X “same”, so the envelopes always come out square!! Not quite as “uptown” a look as I’d like!!! I do, however, like the die cut it gives at the fold points. I wonder if they couldn’t just make THAT a PUNCH, and give us dimensions for the card sizes we make!

    I love most patterned paper, but I will keep single sided papers I don’t care for and simply use it as white cardstock for layouts, cards, die cuts, embossing, etc. I rarely ever buy white cardstock anymore. For double sided papers I don’t care for, I’m always able to find someone else who loves it!

    Great video. I'm with you on using the envelope punch board. If you run your vellum thru embossing folder, it will further mute the pattern below. Love the card you made using P & M embossing folder. I made a few cards using it too. I put them up on my Instagram. If you would follow me on Instagram I sure would appreciate it. I'm not as brave as you to do KZread videos. I love all the ideas you showed here today. Thanks again for taking the time to do these videos. Stay healthy and happy my friend.

The cards were strikingly beautiful and totally fresh. Thanks so much for watching and I forgot about embossing vellum. It has been a while since I did that. Thanks so much for the reminder. I love hanging out in the comments section. So much good comes from it. Hope you are staying safe and joyful. 🥰💕🌈✂️📄

    The smaller pad is usually for origami that's why the paper softer if I'm making cards I always go for the 12x12 and it's always thick paper

    Hi Jane, these Spellbinders papers probably would be great for origami’s. I actually don’t mind them being thin because I can layer them up. I am buying more 12x12 pads here lately because I feel like I have so many more options. But don’t get me wrong, if it’s pretty paper then I am all in. 😂💕🌈📄✂️
