a house or a home

Hey everybody, happy Friday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! I have an awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the September 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This pop-up book fold is a new one that I saw on Lisa’s channel HERE. I’ve created a couple other versions of the book fold and when I saw the unique construction of this one, I just had to try it! I used papers and a journaling card from the collection along with die cut pieces, gemstones and foam alphas from the upgrades.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Aubergine cardstock along with a layering panel from a green patterned paper in the kit. I trimmed one of the larger journaling cards in the kit and notched the corners with the Spellbinders 3 in 1 Notched Corners Punch. I notched the corners of the background panel also and added a gemstone from the upgrades to each corner. The finishing touch on the front was adding a couple quotes from the foam alphas in the upgrades.

I used a pretty floral paper and a little more of the green patterned paper used on the front in addition to Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White for the layers on the inside panels. I added a die cut piece from the upgrades to the left side, leaving the right side blank for a handwritten message and signature. To expose the areas on the inside, you simply push the sides outward. Isn’t this an awesome fold?!

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! ;)
