I love the 6x6 paper pads because I made cards but I also buy 12x12.

I really use both I use the 12x12 for my layouts and use the 6x6 for mats and accents and cards.

If I like the majority of pp in a line, then I go for 6x6 as I tend to use it quicker than the 12x12 collection. If I want certain pp's only, then I go for the 12x12 single sheets.

I think I'm about 70% 12x12 and the rest is 6x6.

I just started getting the 6x6 because I love throwing a ton of patterns on a page- I don't mind cutting up a 12x12 tho..I think I'm just addicted to all paper any size.

12 x 12. I love big prints. I don't like the little prints on the pads, and I'm in the minority on that one! Big and dramatic prints for me - lol!

I love all paper.
When I started scrapping ,I did all 8x8 albums. Then I got more into 12x12 and doing more elaborate papges. But now I make alot of cards and have quite a collection of 6x6 pads,too. I even have old paper pads from when there were alot of 8x8 pads around. Anyone else have 8x8 pads?

I used to be strictly 12x12(mostly open stock vs pads) but I've bought no less than six 6x6 paper pads in the last 2 months!

1) I've been getting more ideas for cards and 6x6 are nice for that

2) I've liked how some of the prints are scaled down a little on the 6x6 in some of the lines I've purchased.

3) Getting the pads has allowed me to get the full line of papers to use when I can't decide which ones I want. I usually end up getting a couple extra 12x12 sheets from the same line to use for the main sheet of a layout and then get the 6x6 pad and embellishments to fill in from there.

Until a couple months ago I barely even glanced at the 6x6 pads but now they're my new favorite item to nab from the shelves!
