One of  our most versatile products is our 12x12 page - traditional scrapbookers love this to simplify their page-making, but keep using their traditional albums. But did you know there's more that you can do besides putting these pages in their sleeves?

Frame It
You can use your own pictures and make your 12×12 page and put it in a 12×12 frame and hang it on your wall.  Here are some great ideas from our Template Gallery …

Tile It
If you’re looking for a great conversation starter centered on your latest home decor project, try mod podging your page on a 12×12 tile that can be purchased at your local Home Depot for about $2.  You can display your tile on a counter or table with a nice tile stand.  You can also create smaller tiles – create 4 6×6 tiles from your page and give away some unique gifts this fall or for Christmas.

Mini Posters
Make your children feel like stars – create a mini poster for their room.  You can highlight just them or do a fun sports page.

Inspirational
You can put your favourite quote or verse on a page and be inspired every day that you see it.

Clock It
Time for a new look to your wall clock?  Make your own clock face and pop it behind the hands (assembly required for this one).

Blocks
These are really cute ways to decorate your living room or a child’s room – pick your own colours, letters and words.  Manual labour is required for this one and you’ll need some wood blocks!

Tumbler
You can visit your local dollar store and pick out a tumbler and custom design your own insert.  Here’s a cute one that has 2 designs on it.

More Ideas
Bookmarks, coasters, place mats … the possibilities are endless.  What are you going to make with your 12×12 page?
