Enjoy the Little Things

Howdy, peeps! Happy Happy Friday to you all! I have another amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you created with the awesome January 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I totally love geometric type patterned papers and those in this month’s kit are just awesome. I created a faux shutter card using a couple coordinating prints which I embellished with a chipboard accent piece from the upgrades. I’ve created a couple interactive shutter cards over the past few months and when I saw this faux shutter card on Pinterest, I wanted to give it a go. It’s also called a fractured card but I think I prefer faux shutter. Next one I make will have a smaller shutter area, but talk about easy-peasy!

I cut the card base from Cougar Smooth 100# White cardstock along with a layering panel and strips for the shutter design from coordinating papers in the collection. I adhered a chipboard accent from the upgrades to the center of the faux shutter area and added several Keep It Simple Back To Basics Rose Enamel Dots.

I embellished the inside panel with patterned paper and cardstock strips used on the front and added sentiment and lady bug stickers from the sticker sheet.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
