I do some Project Life and a lot of card making. Sometimes there's a pattern that I think will be perfect for making a certain type of card. I'm not afraid to use 12x12 paper and cut it down, but sometimes it is better in a 6x6 format because you get more of the design, like the paper below, where you could get the whole ombre effect. Usually in a 6x6 paper pad, you only get 2 of each design. Sometimes I wish I could just buy 6x6 papers! I know manufacturers will probably not do this but does anyone else ever feel this way?  |

Yes, I feel that way all the time.  |

Just give me paper pads that are 6x8 and I'd be happy. That way I can cut 2 card panels (4 x 5-1/4) from each piece of paper instead of 1 from a 6x6 pad with a lot of leftovers.

I don’t use a lot of smaller pads but do agree about 6x8!

Great ideas. Sometimes even on a larger 12x12 layout I want a smaller pattern when I’m using layers.

I like to use them for die cut letters. Larger sheets would work better on the cameo. 8x6 would be nice too for matting 4x6 photos. |

Oh, and I wish 6x6 paper pads were actually 6x6. Not 1/16" to 1/8" too small.
Love the idea of 6x8.

Actually, Authentique tried this years ago. They even had a cute display stand for stores. However, the 6x6 papers didn’t sell well and it was a one time deal.
