Scrapbook pages can be perfect for making cards, but I have to be careful with pattern size. Large patterns work very well, because the repetition gets lost in the 5 x 6 size of the card, and small patterns are obviously wonderful for secondary patterns. Medium patterns are tricky and need to be placed appropriately on the paper. This Amy Butler Collection has all that. I have come to know that K and Co papers are of excellent quality; I can bend them and the top color/pattern won't split. I can get, conservatively, 18 6-card sets from this Collection - quite a deal for this card maker.
However, I felt at the time of order that I was taking a risk when buying. I would have preferred to see a larger photo of the collection as well as a photo of each paper. As it happened, all is well and I love the collection - it's perfect!!
Papers have great coordinated 2nd side. Adapatable to many different themes.
Great color scheme
the colors blend so well and the double sided ensures you endless layouts or cards. i just adore the soft colors. the chocolate and pinks in this pack are my absolute favorits you can start a layout and use the scraps for your cardmaking you get double for the price of one that is why i love k and co packs.
I bought this paper to make little origami style envelope / folders that I will use as favors for my wedding with tea inside - I'm from Ireland and we all drink buckets of tea so it is the best gift I think! - my colours are green, yellow and a hint of blue so this is perfect - the little folders will show off both sides of the paper and will all be put into a basket so the array will be really set off - it will be a fun project! I'm also punching paper daisies out of the left over paper to use as confetti on the tables to tie it in with the rest of the reception. Hopefully it is a hit - only thing that I don't like is that the white border on each page attaching it to the pack isn't perforated so has to be cut off - otherwise lovely.
