Hello ladies,I have 12x12 circle papers (cardstock AND patterned paper) from years back , and wondering how to use them up? I have cut some of them to make lettering or accents with my BS, but that's not enough to bust the stock!! Can you help with a few suggestions? | |

I'll second that! I just used one, like this, but I've got a TON and there's only so many times you can do the same kind of layout! |

Cut out the centre and just use the outer section to frame your title and journaling

My fave page using the MLS circle paper is this one where I cut the circle up and then placed sections along a horizontal (or vertical) line ... I loved it that much I scraplifted myself, made it into a sketch AND a digital template lol!
MLS circle paper scroll down a little for the paper page.

I don't have it posted, but I recently used some pattern paper that came in a scalloped circle the same way you would use the "bracket" shaped pattern papers. I grouped three photos, my title and my journaling, some of that completely within the circle, some hanging off. In my case, the scallops are a solid color surrounding a circle of pattern, and I put all of that on a more subtle 12 x 12 background.
I also had a paper in a DCWV stack that came with a big circle like that in the middle, and used it in a similar fashion.
ETA: I just posted the newer LO Easter 2012 after seeing Camandanismom post another Easter LO with the exact same circle paper.

Either way, I am sure the cardstock circles would look fine too.
