Hello Friends! Thank you so much for watching! I just wanted to say sorry for the audio glitch at the very end of the video. Have a beautiful weekend! ❤️ xo Amber
There's those paper boxes you can make with two full sheets of 12 x 12 paper too. I sold a TON of those for $1 each. I think people would love to see how to make those!
...and some clever ways to use up those sheets with one huge single design on them. I have a TON of those too.....LOVE your work, use your ideas all the time Amber! All my best to you and your hubby!!!
Love this idea. I would love to see some spring craft fair ideas. I have one coming up soon and the fall ideas are wonderful, but how do you turn that into spring ideas? Or what new spring craft fair items are possible? Love your channel, can't wait to see your new series! I'll be praying for you and your hubby. Hugs! 😊💙
I too would love to see a way to use up those 12x12 sheets with the big single design on them... I make flip books, etc for my pen pals... but I never know what to do with the single large design sheets... I guess I could make some into these envelopes, but a lot of the tops of the designs. Will be cut off..
Bless Your Heart ♥️ My husband went through the same thing 4 years ago that turned our lives upside down. We would have never known anything if he didn’t get the flu. Ended up with a pacemaker and an mechanical aortic valve requiring open heart surgery. Age 52. Wow!! I appreciate your chat times!! You’re absolutely amazing and have helped a newbie like me so much. I’ve heard your name mentioned in several of other people’s videos. Now I know why!! 💗
Amber, I am so happy you decided to do this 'Use Your Paper' Series. I have a lot of paper, and I am like you, I don't want to stop buying the paper because I have so much already. So being able to use up paper that I love, is going to be great. Thank you for always being so creative and helping me to be creative. Keeping your husband & you in my thoughts and prayers & hoping he will be back on the golf course very soon. Up here in Upstate NY, we had snow the other day. I can't wait for warmer weather, but in the meantime, my craft room is calling me. :)
I cannot WAIT for this new series because I have tons of paper and scraps to use up, and alot of stuff I use for my craft fairs. Gosh, I am keeping your hubby in prayer for a speedy healing. You are my inspiration. 🤗
Love, love, LOVE the use up your paper series!! Nobody wants to get rid of their pretty paper, so finding ways to use it is perfect! I love everything you do! Keep it coming!
I have just watched several videos of this series and so excited! I have been on a paper buying restriction for couple of months till used up some of this stash I've collected. I will be using several of these ideas. Thank you so much for the cutest ideas! Here's hoping all is well for your family!
Sending thoughts and prayers for your husband. I love all your videos and have always said that. I know a lot of crafters have started doing journals, but I am really not into that. I love the kind of videos that you do and the tutorials that you share. They are always so very inspiring. I love that you always give ideas to use the creations that you make and share. I hope that you always continue to make videos with all these all inspiring ideas and creations.I could watch your videos on 3x3 cards and A2 size cards because you always have great ideas how to gift them. You are truly awesome! I am so excited to see all the creations you show.
I am so glad that your husband is recovering well. I love your videos and I love any tutorials that help me use my paper stash. These envelopes are gorgeous! This paper pad is on my shopping list.
That’s such a wonderful idea. Not just to use all the paper but to learn how to make things. I really like it specially the way you take it step by step. Please continue with it. Thank you for sharing.
Amber, would you ever do a craft room tour? Or tips on how to get motivated and organised? How to make the crafting session as productive as possible- what do you listen to, drinks (I recently bought myself a flask so I can take boiling water upstairs so I can keep having cups of tea- which has been a timesaver) etc. How do you plan out a project?
Just seeing this. My prayers are with you. Your videos really relax me and give me encouragement to keep trying what I want to do. So thank you! Sending prayers, hugs, and healing vibes!
Hi Amber! Praying for you and your husband. Glad to hear he is doing well. My husband had a heart attack a year ago and it's such a scary thing to go thru. LOVE your idea for upcoming series! Pretty envelopes! Your a great teacher and I love your tutorials. Thank you!
I love your idea for how to use up paper. I love all of my paper and I cant wait to see all of your ideas on how to use entire paper packs! Thanks for sharing and I’ll be watching!
These are absolutely beautiful. What a great way to use your paper. I will certainly do that. I’m so glad to hear your husband is doing much better Amber. Sending lots of prayers for a fast recovery. Thank you for another great diy. God Bless.❤️💐🌹🙏🏾🌺🌹🙏🏾
Great project, good series, looking forward to it. Prayers for you and your husband. Envelopes are beautiful. I am in the middle of trying to use up all my scraps, I have so many, I usually just go straight to the paper pads and forget to use the many many scraps. Thanks for sharing.
Amber, I love everything you do. You are so good at everything and for using up paper stash is what I need. I have tons of it but need easy crafts to do to use it up. I’m disabled and very limited to what I can do but your crafts are so easy to do. They are beautiful well made and I enjoy making them. You are my favorite crafter to watch. I can’t wait to see the next thing you make. Love you. God bless. Martha from Georgia
I wanted to thank you for all your videos. You are my favorite paper crafter on UA-cam. Also my favorite for craft fairs. I wanted to comment that this envelope is the new one I will use for my paper scraps. So I’m making a solid colored envelope for my solid scraps and a patterned to organize my patterned scraps. Thanks again. -Patricia
Love your series idea for using up paper. I too, have an out of control paper collection! I need some quick but attractive ideas for ways to use it, that I will either be selling at craft fairs or using in happy mail and papercrafting swaps. Thanks for the ideas, Amber, you are such a creative force!
I've done a bunch of these myself fairly recently. In a smaller size, because I like to include a handmade card with stickers, sample washi tapes and book marks to friends for holidays/ birthdays. These are so CUTE! 😍
I love your series! Like many paper crafters, I have a ton of paper I've hoarded and need to use. I took apart a couple of brand new 12 x 12 paper pads and cut it down to 4 stacks of 6x6 paper. I then put the stack tied with pretty ribbon in a cellophane bag and use it for a goodie when swapping with another crafter. I of course keep one for myself!
This is the series I’ve been waiting for! I too have lots of paper that I absolutely love and don’t want to give it away. I’m saving your videos to my Favs so that I can go back and review whenever I want. Thank you, thank you! 😊
thank you for the share! just so nice to watch you create... Ive been meaning to tell you, back some time ago on one of your vids, you mentioned you just hadn't gotten used to using a blade or exacto. i kinda felt the same way and then i stumbled on the idea of using a fabric cutting wheel and omg, its works wonderfully. super sharp and i can cut thru multiple pages/sheets without the dragging and tearing using a ruler and my cutting mat. keep the series coming!
Hi so sorry to hear your hubby had surgery, but pleased he is recovering well, love your series and well, all your videos, so I’ll be watching, whatever you do, Glad to have you back, take care from England UK XX💚
I LOVE the idea of ways to use up old pads. I hate the thought of buying new because I too have so many I want to use up first. I'm looking forward to the new series. Thank you so much. I hope your husband makes a speedy and full recovery.
Amber, I am so looking forward to your series. What a timely topic. I agree with your thoughts on the horde. Prayers for your husband and you during this journey.
So happy to hear your hubby is on the mend! Prayers that it continues effortlessly! Envelopes are so pretty! I like it uses the whole sheet of paper, no scraps or waste!
Lifting you, your husband and family in prayer. Wishing him a speedy recovery. YES, I have lots of paper pads to use.TFS the envelopes. I'm ashamed to say that I feel a little selfish right now for having so many paper pads but was thinking of something to do with them in the future. I did put myself on a spending hold last year. Wishing you best wishes for your new endeavors. You go girl! Love your channel. Have a Blessed Weekend!!!
Wonderful idea! Any series you do will be great, Amber. So glad your husband is recovering well. Praying for you both. It’s so wonderful to have you back! 🙏🌼🦋
Love the idea for this new series. We are fixing to start a remodel on our home and I am having to "get real" with the paper collection I have had since 2003. Some of my collections are when online stores did NOT exist and we purchased the only single double-sided papers. lol Vintage Bo Bunny, Prima, Tim Holtz (the very beginning) or Graphic 45 is where I started. Now...it's a smorgasbord! Secondly, my husband who is 7 years younger than me, was injured in the military unexpectedly. I understand as a spouse how that can rock your world and recovery time. Take it one day at a time! I think this is a great theraputic idea
This is a fabulous idea for a series, everything you mentioned about using my papers, is the same thing myself and my friends say about our paper supply. Thank you so this much-needed solution, looking forward to the entire series.
I love your videos. Even if I know I'll never make what might be in them, you're always so positive and cheerful sounding. Sending healing wishes for you and your husband.
Thank you so much Amber for all the great tutorials....a series would be amazing. Prayers and blessings to you and your husband.Glad to hear he is doing better.🙏🙏🥰
Before I watched this video, I saved Anna video months ago for the measurements. I’ve been making policy envelopes at the kitchen table for the last hour. lol I just took a break and just clicked on you’re video. How crazy! I was making them for gifts. I can’t wait to see all your ideas.
I am so glad I found your channel I have 2 long totes of scrapbook paper that I want to use! You give me so much inspiration and wonderful ideas. I love all your papers they are stunning. I think you are so talented and creative.
It's great to have you back. I missed your videos. My Husband had Open Heart surgery 5 years ago. So I understand. He's almost 62 and doing very well. Hope your Husband continues to do well. Thank you for coming back....
Sending you and your husband lots of love and prayers Amber. We are all here for you! 😘❤️😘❤️ I have a lot of hoard as well. You are so correct, we work hard and should be able to enjoy the simple things in life that make us happy! Well said! 😘
Hi Amber! Iam excited about this use up your paper series! I have watched a ton of your videos and have used so many of your projects. Your projects are simple and beautiful. Your channel is my favorite channel for paper crafts. You do a great job. I like how you show and talk about the paper crafts. Your instructions are easy to follow. I also like the music you choose. It's very calm and relaxing. I like how conversational you are, like you are visiting with us. I love that you give alternative ideas for how to use the crafts. Keep your ideas and videos coming! I look forward to watching each one! I made a ton of these envelopes! They are great for sending happy mail! I also enjoy your other videos on happy mail and your goodies from Tuesday Morning. Thanks so much for all the inspiration!
Prayers for your husband speedy recovery Amber. Thank you so much for doing this series. I’m kinda new at paper crafting and find myself buying all the time and hardly making anything. I just love paper! This will help me a lot. Thanks.
Lovely envelopes. I knocked out five right away and they are beautiful. My paper pack started out with 180 sheets and I’ve only used a few, so I doubt that I will be making that many envelopes!!! But great to have when I want to have a few more. TFS.
I am listening to this video in my very quiet office space. When you said "what if it all sparks joy," I burst out laughing. Now I'm getting funny looks and really do not want to have to explain to people I am not the only paper hoarder. Thanks for the video!
Hi, I just found your channel, and what a coincidence! My hubby had a heart attack on Jan. 5. He had a quadruple bypass and is recovering nicely. He went from the hospital to a nursing home for 3 weeks, where he had just "regular" PT. This week he is starting his cardio rehab. He will go 3 times a week for 4 hours, and will have cardio, yoga, nutrition, and group therapy, I think. Here's the next "funny" thing. A couple of days after his heart attack, but before he had surgery, I watched Anna making those policy envelopes. I thought they were so adorable, and was soon obsessed with making them, way more than I can ever use. I went through my paper pads and found the exact one you are using. It is so pretty, and the envelopes are so cute! He wanted me to bring him our bills etc. so I stuck a bunch of them in the same paper you used. I, of course, made him ooh and aah over them (he did, he's well trained.) Those silly little envelopes have become my therapy! I keep a collection right by my crafting table, and ever once in a while I pull a couple of them out to admire. It seems to calm me down, and it always makes me smile! Good luck to your hubby; I hope his recovery is coming along smoothly!
So glad to hear that your husband is on the road to recovery. Please be sure to take some extra tine for yourself to relax too. Love your idea for your spring/summer series! I will really be looking forward to it, as I have a lot of paper I would like to use up this year. Take care! Rebecca
So pretty! Thank you so very much, Amber! I was able to follow along & make several policy envelopes! It relaxes me also to feel, cut & hear the paper! 😊❤
I think this is a fantastic idea! I would love to use up my paper and as I love your tutorials I am sure I will be able to do so! Prayers for your husband.
Hi Amber, Prayers to you and your husband, glad he is recovering. I will be making these envelopes as I have soooo much paper! Excited for your new series!
Hi Amber, wishing your hubby best wishes in his recovery! I am on board for your inspirational paper series! I have so much paper, and you're right about not buying more until I use up what I have! Lol! So looking forward to it! Thanks for this tutorial! 👍💖
Love, love, love this idea for your new series! So sorry, to hear about your husband’s health. So glad to hear that he is recovering. Please take care of yourself. We often forget about the caretakers. Sending both you and your husband positive thoughts and prayers all the way from Saudi Arabia. Besos😘
Prayers for you and your husband! I would love a use your paper stash series....I have to admit I hoard paper and sometimes think it’s to pretty to cut into!
Me too, it is crazy, I cant use it, one day I went through my stash with the KonMari idea in my head and yes: it ALL sparks joy. And not only paper, also dies, paint! (I hoard paint) , embellishments, journals (empty because I love the paper so much) , notbooks , embossingpowders, magicals , watercolor from every brand and and and ..........
So glad to see you back Amber... and sending prayers and well wishes for your husband. So glad to hear he is doing well. LOVE this idea for the series. Alot of your craft fair series were along these lines, when you said "you can kill an entire paper pad with this project"!!! I loved that.. but of course, never did use an ENTIRE one if there were too many favorites! I'm such a hoarder too.. just love looking at the gorgeous papers. I would love some of your series to have to do with making some things that we can use ourselves and keep for ourselves.. a way to showcase our favorite papers. Also love the idea of using the premade cards (forgot their name!) that are 3x4 as they are so fun but I hardly ever use them.. other than like you did on some of your mini albums and notecard holders, putting them on the front. These envelopes are awesome.. just don't know if I could part with them! :-) So looking forward to your new series.
Praying for your husbands speedy recovery may the lord bless you both with good health and beautiful spring weather too. I missed your videos they inspire me to listen to my heart and follow my dreams. Love that paper pad it’s gorgeous. Thanks for always sharing a little bit of your life with us! 💌📫😍💋
Lol!!! Duh, it all Sparks Joy or I would not have bought it to begin with!!! I thought I was the only one with this bump in the Kon Mari road to simplifing! I will be looking forward to your series on how to use all of my stash! TFS💕 Happy to hear that your hausband is on the way to full recovery!
I am a huge fan of using up paper in my stash - would love to see this series. I would love ideas to use up project life cards - I have TONS and it is sitting around taking up space. The envelopes are gorgeous! TFS
Praying for your husband, for a speedy recovery! We're still here for you Amber! Thank you for being so inspirational 😗 Love the idea of you're new craft series!! I have a lot of baby/kid paper- would love to see something with that. 😊
So happy to hear your hubby is healing well. My husband also had to have open heart surgery a few years ago so I know how scary it can be. I have so much paper that needs some love. I look forward to creating some of your projects with it. Crafty hugs my friend💖🙏💖
Yes! I too have way too many things in my craft room that spark joy! Most of them paper! Most 12x12 but some 8 1/2 x 11 and 8x8, 6x6, ....... Praying for a speedy recovery for your husband!
Awe see! This would be perfect for flatmail goodies! If you haven’t seen the Pinterest boards for flatmail you should totally check it out! Some very cute ideas. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Hello Friends! Thank you so much for watching! I just wanted to say sorry for the audio glitch at the very end of the video. Have a beautiful weekend! ❤️ xo Amber
Hi, love your videos, watch them all the time! Did you happen to have that coupon code for the mats?
There's those paper boxes you can make with two full sheets of 12 x 12 paper too. I sold a TON of those for $1 each. I think people would love to see how to make those!
...and some clever ways to use up those sheets with one huge single design on them. I have a TON of those too.....LOVE your work, use your ideas all the time Amber! All my best to you and your hubby!!!
Love this idea. I would love to see some spring craft fair ideas. I have one coming up soon and the fall ideas are wonderful, but how do you turn that into spring ideas? Or what new spring craft fair items are possible? Love your channel, can't wait to see your new series! I'll be praying for you and your hubby. Hugs! 😊💙
I too would love to see a way to use up those 12x12 sheets with the big single design on them... I make flip books, etc for my pen pals... but I never know what to do with the single large design sheets... I guess I could make some into these envelopes, but a lot of the tops of the designs. Will be cut off..
Bless Your Heart ♥️

I look forward to watching each one! I made a ton of these envelopes! They are great for sending happy mail! I also enjoy your other videos on happy mail and your goodies from Tuesday Morning. Thanks so much for all the inspiration!
Keep those ideas coming!! Prayers for your husband speedy recovery💕
Prayers for your husband's speedy recovery.. absolutely think your new series would be brilliant!! Can hardly wait!! TFS.
Great idea for a series! You can be sure I’ll be watching! Thanks for all you inspiration, Amber!!
Prayers and best thoughts for you and your husband. I appreciate your hard work showing your great projects. Looking forward to your series.
Oh yes, totally pumped! First time I have tried these, love them! Very happy to get a lot of paper used up!
Prayers for your husband speedy recovery Amber. Thank you so much for doing this series. I’m kinda new at paper crafting and find myself buying all the time and hardly making anything. I just love paper! This will help me a lot. Thanks.
Would love to see more ideas for using up your paper! I enjoy all of your fabulous ideas and tutorials.
Lovely envelopes. I knocked out five right away and they are beautiful. My paper pack started out with 180 sheets and I’ve only used a few, so I doubt that I will be making that many envelopes!!! But great to have when I want to have a few more. TFS.
I am listening to this video in my very quiet office space. When you said "what if it all sparks joy," I burst out laughing. Now I'm getting funny looks and really do not want to have to explain to people I am not the only paper hoarder. Thanks for the video!
Prayers to your husband and to you too!!! Absolutely love this series idea!!!!!!!! I will be anxiously awaiting next video!!!!
TFS your ideas! I totally get what you said about using up paper and that is my goal this year! Wishing your husband a speedy recovery.
Hi, I just found your channel, and what a coincidence! My hubby had a heart attack on Jan. 5. He had a quadruple bypass and is recovering nicely. He went from the hospital to a nursing home for 3 weeks, where he had just "regular" PT. This week he is starting his cardio rehab. He will go 3 times a week for 4 hours, and will have cardio, yoga, nutrition, and group therapy, I think. Here's the next "funny" thing. A couple of days after his heart attack, but before he had surgery, I watched Anna making those policy envelopes. I thought they were so adorable, and was soon obsessed with making them, way more than I can ever use. I went through my paper pads and found the exact one you are using. It is so pretty, and the envelopes are so cute! He wanted me to bring him our bills etc. so I stuck a bunch of them in the same paper you used. I, of course, made him ooh and aah over them (he did, he's well trained.) Those silly little envelopes have become my therapy! I keep a collection right by my crafting table, and ever once in a while I pull a couple of them out to admire. It seems to calm me down, and it always makes me smile! Good luck to your hubby; I hope his recovery is coming along smoothly!
So glad to hear that your husband is on the road to recovery. Please be sure to take some extra tine for yourself to relax too. Love your idea for your spring/summer series! I will really be looking forward to it, as I have a lot of paper I would like to use up this year. Take care! Rebecca
So pretty! Thank you so very much, Amber! I was able to follow along & make several policy envelopes! It relaxes me also to feel, cut & hear the paper! 😊❤
I think this is a fantastic idea! I would love to use up my paper and as I love your tutorials I am sure I will be able to do so! Prayers for your husband.
So glad your husband is better and on the mend! I love the idea of your new series. Welcome back!!
Hi Amber, Prayers to you and your husband, glad he is recovering. I will be making these envelopes as I have soooo much paper! Excited for your new series!
Hi Amber, wishing your hubby best wishes in his recovery! I am on board for your inspirational paper series! I have so much paper, and you're right about not buying more until I use up what I have! Lol! So looking forward to it! Thanks for this tutorial! 👍💖
Love, love, love this idea for your new series! So sorry, to hear about your husband’s health. So glad to hear that he is recovering. Please take care of yourself. We often forget about the caretakers. Sending both you and your husband positive thoughts and prayers all the way from Saudi Arabia. Besos😘
Amber, Praying for continued healing for your husband and strength for you.
Love these envelopes! Super cute my friend
Prayers for you and your husband! I would love a use your paper stash series....I have to admit I hoard paper and sometimes think it’s to pretty to cut into!
LOL. I have the same problem! Thanks for saying that... now I don't feel so bad! 💖
I have the same problem, hoarding paper!
Me too, it is crazy, I cant use it, one day I went through my stash with the KonMari idea in my head and yes: it ALL sparks joy. And not only paper, also dies, paint! (I hoard paint) , embellishments, journals (empty because I love the paper so much) , notbooks , embossingpowders, magicals , watercolor from every brand and and and ..........
Love the new series idea! Can’t wait. Praying for recovery for your husband.
Amber, prayers for your husband and family. Love your series idea of using up the paper stash. Your tutorials and ideas are always amazing.
Prayers for your husband Amber! Speedy recovery! I would love the series if you have time. I love you craft fair series.
I love this idea and am looking forward to the series! Praying for your husband's quick and complete healing. ❤
Glad your husband is recovering well - sending good wishes for complete healing! Love this tutorial and your idea for using up our stash!
I'm glad to hear your hubbys doing better! Thank you for posting the series ! I love the idea!
Oh my gosh!!! Sending healing thoughts and prayers your hubby's way. ~~~LOVE~~~ that you're going to have a new series. Very excited.
So glad to see you back Amber... and sending prayers and well wishes for your husband. So glad to hear he is doing well. LOVE this idea for the series. Alot of your craft fair series were along these lines, when you said "you can kill an entire paper pad with this project"!!! I loved that.. but of course, never did use an ENTIRE one if there were too many favorites! I'm such a hoarder too.. just love looking at the gorgeous papers. I would love some of your series to have to do with making some things that we can use ourselves and keep for ourselves.. a way to showcase our favorite papers. Also love the idea of using the premade cards (forgot their name!) that are 3x4 as they are so fun but I hardly ever use them.. other than like you did on some of your mini albums and notecard holders, putting them on the front. These envelopes are awesome.. just don't know if I could part with them! :-) So looking forward to your new series.
Enjoyed the tutorial. I am a paper hoarder and this is a great way to use up my papers. Thank you.
Praying for your husbands speedy recovery may the lord bless you both with good health and beautiful spring weather too. I missed your videos they inspire me to listen to my heart and follow my dreams. Love that paper pad it’s gorgeous. Thanks for always sharing a little bit of your life with us! 💌📫😍💋
Lol!!! Duh, it all Sparks Joy or I would not have bought it to begin with!!! I thought I was the only one with this bump in the Kon Mari road to simplifing! I will be looking forward to your series on how to use all of my stash! TFS💕 Happy to hear that your hausband is on the way to full recovery!
Great idea for the series! I have a lot of gorgeous papers that deserve to be used!
Prayers of healing and blessings for your family.
Happy to see you back Amber & prayers answered for your husband!
I am a huge fan of using up paper in my stash - would love to see this series. I would love ideas to use up project life cards - I have TONS and it is sitting around taking up space. The envelopes are gorgeous! TFS
Speedy recovery to your husband, hope he is doing well and you too! Love these policy envelopes

I made envelopes like these and put face masks in them for Valentine's Day! The paper you used is so pretty.

So happy to hear your hubby is healing well. My husband also had to have open heart surgery a few years ago so I know how scary it can be. I have so much paper that needs some love. I look forward to creating some of your projects with it. Crafty hugs my friend💖🙏💖
I’m so loving this new series idea! I can’t wait till it begins!
