Answer 1

You can make greeting cards with it, and for your room you could try putting it as the background of a big picture frame with a picture in the middle of it.  

Answer 2

You can make cards with it.

Collages.

Use it to line envelopes

Donate it to lesser grades/elementary schools, or your art classes, they would LOVE to have it for projects.

You can also, if you have a lot, see if your local hospital would like it for the kids, call the pediatric ward and ask them if they will take it for the kids.

You can use it to make Holiday cards and gift tags for when you give out holiday gifts this year.

Make gift tags for birthdays and other occasions.

Use them as colorful note cards, just cut them down to size.

Save them for when you have projects at school.  I'm sure once school starts again you're going to have projects that you're going to do that you're going to want covers for essays and collages and things, the packs of paper will be perfect for that.  You can save them until the end of the school year and if you find you don't use it by then, then donate them, etc.  

Answer 3

You could use it as stationery for writing notes.. like Thank You notes to people (Grandparents,Aunties, etc.) who have helped you or given you gifts for special occasions.  

Along these same lines, you could also create a journal for yourself (or for your friends, as gifts) or small note pads by cutting the sheets down to the preferred size, punching two small holes on the short side and binding the sheets together with some pretty ribbon! : )

Answer 4

why don't you save all your unused scrap-booking supplies in a separate box - I'm sure you will come across someone who wants to start scrapbooking and you could ceratinly help = maybe she can't afford the supplies - and nothing is better than sharing a craft with a friend.

I know that's how I got started - a friend had been scrapbooking for years - she had lots of supplies she wasn't using anymore - she had set them aside in a plastic tote - when she asked me if I was interested in scrapbooking - she presented me with this box and told me to take anything I needed = scrapbooking can be expensive when you are first starting - I have followed her example and put all extra supplies, paper, and things that I have replaced with newer models in a tote, and someday someone else will be in the same position I was = in need of a friend and a great time sharing a craft together.
