Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday! I hope you’re having a great week! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today, created with the awesome October 2023 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m totally in love with all the coordinating products in this collection and created a spooky pop up block card. My inspiration for this fun fold came from Lisa Curcio, a SU demonstrator who posted it on Instagram. You know I’m always on the look-out for new ones to make – this is my first attempt at this particular one and I love how it turned out! It features papers and stickers from this month’s collection along with a tag and enamel dots from the upgrades, and really is quite simple despite it’s complex look!

I cut the card base and blocks from CutCardStock Basis Dark Orange cardstock and embellished the pieces with coordinating papers from the kit which I layered on CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock. The focal element is a tag from the Frames & Tags in the upgrades which I layered on a scrap piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and embellished with a Doodlebug Design Lily White Doodle Twine bow. I added a bat sticker from the sticker sheet and several enamel dots from the upgrades.

I cut the back panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of coordinating paper from the kit and Basis Black cardstock. I added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet and layered the panel on black cardstock.

Could you please post a link to the instructions (measurements, paper sizes, etc)? I went to Lisa Curcio’s site but couldn’t find it. I have no idea what to put in her search box.
