12×12 Paper Busters

I make Paper Busting Templates because I want to use my paper without creating a pile of challenging scraps to deal with in the future. I hope these templates will help you to use your stash in a fun stress free way.

Here you can find templates using 12×12 paper. Follow the link to see the sketch(es) and card examples for each template. Download a printable PDF that includes the templates and sketches so you can get crafting right away. Some templates are available for free download while others are only available in packs from the Etsy shop. If the link takes you to Etsy then the template is only available in that format.
