Fun Perpetual Calendar

Hey everybody, happy Saturday – I hope you had an amazing Christmas (if you celebrate) and hopefully have something fun planned this weekend! I’m up on the Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L blog today with an inspiration project created with some really fun Doodlebug Design products along with some of the best adhesives ever! Everybody needs to start a new calendar for the new year, right?! I’ve made a few different versions of perpetual calendars over the years and this particular one is my own design from about five years ago.

Doodlebug Design is one of my all-time favorite companies and they invited our design team to collaborate with them so I was MORE than happy to play with lots of their products… another amazing opportunity that I thoroughly enjoyed! When linking to the Doodlebug Design products I used, I discovered they are out of stock on a few of them, but I’ll check back to see if they’ve been restocked and will update my post.

There are lots of pieces to this project and it took several hours to complete… and I enjoyed every stinkin’ minute of it! The E-Z Runner Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser and Dual Tip Glue Pen were my best friends for putting this together. I used Neenah Classic Crest Epic Black 130# cardstock for all the panels and base, which is nice and sturdy. I also used 80# Solar White cardstock, several die sets in my stash, and lots of Doodlebug Design products. I started by creating the panels for the days of the week.

Then I created the panels for the months of the year.

Next I created the panels for the dates in the month (two columns).

And perhaps the most fun of all was creating the panels with seasonal icons. In addition to using more Doodlebug Design products, I employed the ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique using 3D Foam Snowflakes with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors and 3D Foam Christmas Shapes with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors for a couple of the tabs.

And finally, I created the base, attached the 1/2″ black Zutter wire, and put it all together using my Zutter Bind-It-All.

And here’s one final shot of the completed calendar. If anybody decides to tackle this, I’d love to see your version! There are a few more details on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog, so be sure to check it out!

Happy Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates! I hope you’re looking forward to a beautiful day filled with love, family and/or friends, and good food! I have one more ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I’m sure you’ve noticed that I’m hooked on the quilt block card, lol, and have made another one. I used papers and stickers from the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit along with elements from the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers and Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera (both from the upgrades).

I cut the 5-1/2″ square card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with two stitched square die cuts which I cut from CutCardStock Basis Red and Bright Gold Foil cardstock using Love From Lizi Stitched Square Nested Cutting Dies. I cut eight smaller stitched squares (using the same die set) from assorted prints in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit and eight more from CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft. I cut several of them in half diagonally and then glued them down in a quilt block pattern on a piece of copy paper.

I fashioned the sentiment from elements in the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers and Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera (both from the upgrades), and added a snowflake puffy sticker to the center. I tied a small bow from Lawn Fawn white hemp twine, colored it with a G28 Copic Ciao alcohol marker, and added it to the center.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with leftover strips of one of the prints used on the front and the Basis Red cardstock. I added floral and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet and layered the panel on red cardstock, which completed the card.

Artist Trading Cards & Coins

Hey everybody – Merry Christmas Eve! I hope you’re ready for the big jolly guy in the red suit to make his appearance tonight… because he’s coming whether you’re ready or not! LOL, sure got here fast – that’s about all I can say! I’ve popped in with my second post of the day to share an assortment of ATCs (both cards and coins) that I made with some stuff in my stash along with some new crafty goodies that I got for Christmas!

I participated in a Secret Santa de-stash gift exchange hosted by a friend and got a nice box of crafty goodies from my exchange partner. So my friend who organized it messaged me and asked if I wanted to do another de-stash exchange privately with her (of course, I couldn’t say no, lol) and she sent me a huge box full of more fun stuff! Can you say WIN-WIN?! And I have to say that I was able to send out two fat (filled to the brim) medium sized flat rate boxes of de-stash items that I no longer used, so that was another WIN-WIN! Needless to say I was jones-ing to dig into these two boxes and make something pretty! It’s been forever since I’ve made an ATC, so that’s what I did… four coins and two cards to add to my ATC album!

For the four coins, I used Not 2 Shabby Pet tape along with papers from the Carta Bella Gather At Home 6×6 Mega Pad, Carta Bella Flora No. 3 6×6 Paper Pad, and Carta Bella Flora No. 6 Collection Kit. Also used some Keep It Simple enamel hearts and glitter enamel dots. If you’re not familiar, Pet tape is different than Washi tape. Washi tape is a paper sticker tape and Pet tape is a clear plastic sticker tape that’s pre-cut with images and sentiments, and SO fun to use!

For the two cards, I used papers and stickers from the Carta Bella Home From Christmas Collection Kit along with some Eyelet Outlet enamel dots. I think it’s safe to say that I’ve gotten my ATC fix – for now – but you may be seeing more soon, lol!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

Hi friends – can you believe it’s Christmas Eve already?! OMGoodness, time is flying by! I have another pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I finally got around to making another starburst panel using papers and stickers in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit along with Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera from the upgrades. It’s actually been a little over five years since I created a panel like this (post HERE if you want to see it). The next time I make one of these I’m going to put the points on the strips more toward the center (for a true starburst look) rather than off to one side.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Moss cardstock along with 16 strips from assorted prints in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit which I then cut in half diagonally. This is a super simple process of placing the first strip down on a lightweight panel of cardstock (or you can use copy paper), then placing each subsequent one down in a starburst formation leaving just a tiny bit of space between the previous one.

For the focal, I grabbed a sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera and layered it on a stitched circle cut from CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil because I thought it needed just a touch of bling. I then cut a slightly larger circle from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock which gave the focal a little more balance. I used the Love From Lizi Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Dies for the circles, and popped the focal up on Scrapbook Adhesive Thin 3D Foam Squares for a little dimension.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a patterned paper strip from the collection and a sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera. I layered it on a panel of CutCardStock Pop Tone Red Hot cardstock which completed the card.

Warm Wishes

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope your week has started off on a nice note! I have a pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This card features three stacked gifts created from assorted prints in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit. I also used elements from the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers and Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera, both from the upgrades.

I grabbed a pre-scored 110# Solar White card base from CutCardStock and adhered a panel of green gingham paper from the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit. I then fashioned three gift boxes from more prints in the collection and tied them together with a strip of CutCardStock Silk Glitter Opulent Opal cardstock. I added a die cut bow at the top which I cut from the same glitter cardstock using a Scrapbook.com Bow Toppers Shape Die. The finishing touch on the front was adding several stars from the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers along with a sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a leftover strip of the gingham paper used on the front and an additional sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera. I layered the panel on CutCardStock Basis Red cardstock, which completed this easy card!

It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

Hey everybody – happy Monday! Last week was a busy one for Ed and I. We had doctor appointments (which never seem to end) and we did quite a bit of volunteer work with our church that hosts several Christmas charities every year. It sure feels good to help the less fortunate and makes the Christmas season even brighter. Our pastor and his wife are two of the nicest people we’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. But today I have a ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you that I created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This is another version of the book fold which features papers and stickers from the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit along with Echo Park Happy Holidays Chipboard Phrases from the upgrades.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Red cardstock and the center flap panel from CutCardStock Kale Green cardstock. I cut the side panels (and inside center flap panel) from a print in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit, and then trimmed a coordinating journaling card from the kit for the center flap. The finishing touch on the front was adding a chipboard element from the Echo Park Happy Holidays Chipboard Phrases (in the upgrades).

I cut the inside sentiment panel from CutCardStock Basis Natural cardstock and embellished it with border and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet. Super easy card that really packs a punch, I think! Love how it turned out!

frosty fun diorama card

Hey everybody! Well, yet another week has flown by and it’s Saturday again! That’s not a bad thing, right?! Only a few more days until the big man in the red suit shows up! I’m delighted to share a DT inspiration project for Keep It Simple which features our new Little Snowmen collection that launched last month along with our new 3D Diorama Card Dies. OMGosh, y’all, these are the most fun products EVER! There’s nothing like the WOW factor when the recipient opens a diorama card, especially when it’s full of sweet little snow people!

Using the 3D Diorama card dies, I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Natural cardstock. I cut layering panels and snow hills from assorted prints in the Little Snowmen 12×12 Collection Pack. I stamped the images and sentiment in brown ink, colored the images (from the Little Snowmen Collection Stamps) with alcohol markers, and cut them all with the coordinating outline dies. And as with all 3D projects, the assembly was the most fun! I finished the front with a few Back To Basics Royal Enamel Dots, and stick a white one on the center of the bow.

I cut a panel for the back from the Basis Natural cardstock and embellished it with a border from the bonus cut-apart sheet in the Little Snowmen Collection Pack. I stamped another sentiment in brown ink and cut it with the coordinating die, and layered the panel on another print from the collection. SO fun – and the best part is that this card folds flat for mailing!

Joy To The World

Hi everyone, happy Thursday! Are you ready for the big man in the red suit? He’ll be here in a week’s time whether you’re ready or not, lol! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a fold out panel card featuring Solar White cardstock, our Lessebo Dawn Maroon and Stardream Metallic Aquamarine. I absolutely love a red and aqua color combo, and this turned out great. It’s been many years since I made this fun fold and I’m so glad I found my instructions. Now to decipher my handwriting. Bahahaha! Just kidding… I think I have this handled! :P

The fold out panel was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White, the flat card base and smaller front panel were cut from Lessebo Dawn Maroon, and the larger front panel was cut from Stardream Metallic Aquamarine cardstock. I used coordinating prints from my Four Seasons and Everything In Between -2- paper pad from The Paper Studio. It’s a thick one and I’ve been using it for a number of years now and still have more than half of it left, lol! It’s one of my absolute favorites! I used the Love From Lizi Ornate Oval dies for the focal on the front along with the Cottage Cutz Mittens die for an inside embellishment. The sentiment stamp is also from Love From Lizi.

I cut the back panel from Solar White as well, and embellished it with paper and cardstock strips used on the front. And this sentiment stamp is from the same Love From Lizi stamp set. I embellished the mittens and back panel with Stampendous red Dot Sparklers. Fun, fun, fun… and now that I’ve found the instructions for this card, I’m sure you’ll see it again! And be sure to visit the CutCardStock blog to see my tutorial if you’d like more detail.

A Happy Hello #2

Hey everybody – happy Tuesday! Remember the sea-themed quilt card I shared last week? You may remember that I mentioned I cut enough ‘quilt squares’ to make a second card, and here it is! Very much like the first one (HERE) but with different patterned papers and a different inside sentiment. I’m not sure which one I like better… but I’d love it if you tell me which one you’re more partial to in the comments! It’s funny because I look at this one with the gold fleck paper and think this is the one, and then I look at the other one again and change my other mind. HA, good grief!

I cut a 5-1/4″ square side-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Patriot Blue cardstock. Using one of the smaller dies in the Love From Lizi Stitched Stitched Square Nested Cutting Dies, I cut squares from Solar White cardstock and assorted prints in the Under The Sea paper pack. Several of those were cut in half diagonally and then adhered to a square piece of copy paper in a star pattern. I then ran the piece through my Big Shot with a WRMK Geometric embossing folder to give it more of a quilted look.

I cut a tag from Solar White cardstock using a Keep It Simple KIS Cuts Tags #1 Die and then stamped a sentiment from the Love From Lizi Under The Sea Stamp Set in Versafine Onyx Black ink. I adhered this to the center of the quilted star and added a resin starfish embellishment from the Under The Sea kit along with a piece of Lawn Fawn White Hemp Twine tied in a bow, which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from Solar White and embellished it with a strip of paper from the Under The Sea kit used on the front. I stamped an additional sentiment from the Under The Sea Stamp Set in Versafine Onyx Black ink and layered the panel on the Patriot Blue cardstock. The final touch was adding an Under The Sea shell die cut.

HO HO HO

Hey everybody – happy Monday! I hope you had a most excellent weekend! I’m up on the Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L blog today sharing a tutorial for making a shaped snowglobe card that I created for the Scrapbook Adhesives collaboration with Trinity Stamps. I used the super cute Snowglobe Card Die Set and North Pole Gnomes Stamp Set along with some of the best adhesives in the land to put it all together! I LOVE shaped cards and I totally love how this turned out!

I won’t go into a huge amount of detail here, so be sure to visit the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog to see my tutorial if you want to see how I made this. As mentioned above, I used the Trinity Stamps Snowglobe Card Die Set along with Solar White cardstock (in both 110# and 80# weights) for the entire card, coloring the snowglobe base, cabin, and trees with a variety of markers. You can’t see it too well in the photos but I used Tattered Angels Iridescent Silver Glimmer Mist over the background for a little snowy shimmer.

The lil’ gnome dude and sentiment on the base are from the Trinity Stamps North Pole Gnomes Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black, Versafine Onyx Black, and Catherine Pooler Rockin’ Red and Eucalyptus inks. And I employed my new favorite ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique using small circles from our 3D Foam Christmas Shapes with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors. So fun!

The inside sentiment is another one from the Trinity Stamps North Pole Gnomes Stamp Set, stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.
