When I first started scrapping I loved K&Co 12 x 12 paper pads and I got 3 different ones and apart from the odd one they are still there. I've given quite a few pages away. I didn't really have a preferred scrapbook style at the time I just liked pretty papers (still do - but now pretty papers I will use) and now I just can't picture a scrapbook LO on any of them. In fact I've never made a scrapbook page on any of them. Think its time to give them away!!!

Need more time.....
I often use up papers like that as a backing for others which are too thin, or as a contrasting border. You can always ink or paint them, if you really don't like them, but sometimes they just add a bit of interest behind a sheet of Bazzill, just trimmed by half an inch on two sides so only a little bit shows.
And you feel extra virtuous when you've used up something.

I agree with this. Or could you try altering the die cuts in some way? Or using them on LOs and layering other embellishments over them so they are a bit more in the background?
I've bought endless paper stacks and only ended up liking a couple of sheets. Or sheets of clear stamps and only used one of them. I think everyone on here has experienced that at least once!

Born to Shop ~ Live to Scrap
Whenever I get a packet or sheet of odd diecuts, I know they'll go in the cupboard forever, so instead, I keep them out in my tote for making cards.. and challenge myself to think of fun 'puns' as greetings... or silly little ideas.
ie, the 'Peekaboo' die cut would look great on the inside of the envelope, or tucked inside a pocket.. perhaps even on a baby card.
Failing that.. check out the Pink Paislee DT gallery or blog
