"Summer Fresh" is the first
Simple Stories collection I have ever owned. I have the 6x6 pad and I am addicted to it! I love the bolder colors and the fact that it pairs well with my navy Bazzill card stock (my picture makes it look black, but it is truly navy.)
This pad is different from all of the other 6x6s I own because some of the papers are not just a pattern (like the red check or green polka dot pictured.) There are papers that can be cut up and used as journaling tags or as the sentiment (e.g. "you are my sunshine" panel above.) Here are some earlier posts of other cards I have made from the same 6x6 pad:
Sooooooo much fun in one little pad. Do you see the clouds behind the sail boat? I fussy cut the clouds from one sheet in the pad of paper...so many flags and other goodies to fussy cut. The "waves" in the sail boat card were the negative image from using my scallop border die. Then I used the actual scallops for this card:
The hot air ballon panel is one of the rectangles of journaling cards; I just added the bit of twine on the basket and a navy snap in the corner. Easy-peasy.
Now I am motivated to give some love to my other 6x6 pads because I may need to make room to buy more Simple Stories...they sure are easy to work with!
Happy Wednesday!

Okay, I know what I'm going to do. I happen to have that paper pad, and I'm going to try to recreate the cards with it that you've created. Curious about how I'll do!!! :)
Love this collection! I've got the 12x12 and hate to cut it up for cards, so I think I need to get the 6x6! You certainly created many inspiring projects from yours!!! TFS!!!
