Peace mini slimline card

Hi everyone! OMGosh, St. Nick will be here tonight… are you ready?! He’s coming regardless, lol! I have an awesome CutCardStock DT inspiration project to share with you today featuring more of our Stardream Metallic cardstock! This cardstock has the softest shimmer and is some of the prettiest I’ve ever seen! I’ve used Stardream Metallic Fairway cardstock and Stardream Metallic Jupiter cardstock on this mini slimline card, and I love how it turned out!

I cut my favorite mini slimline card size of 3-1/2″ x 6″ from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock. Using the Kat Scrappiness Mini Slimline Foliage Frame die, I cut the frame from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Fairway cardstsock, and adhered it to the card base. Next, using the Sizzix Script Holiday Words Thinlits, I die cut the sentiment three times from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Jupiter cardstock and layered them together for a little dimension. I clipped the prongs off of four Eyelet Outlet Poinsettia Flower Brads (didn’t want the bulk under the frame) and adhered them with Ranger Distress Collage Medium. The finishing touch was adding several Darice tiny clear gemstones.

Using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers dies, I cut the inside panels from the Stardream Metallic Fairway cardstock and Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock, and adhered them together. I stamped a sentiment from the CAS-ual Friday Stamps Snowy Sayings stamp set in Catherine Pooler Rouge ink.

Christmas Quilt Card

Hey everybody! Are you ready for the round jolly guy in the red suit to make his appearance tomorrow evening?! He’s coming whether you’re ready or not, lol! I’m thrilled to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing December 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I like everything in this month’s kit, from the pretty patterned papers to the variety of stickers. I consider myself a fun fold ‘fiend’ and thought a side fold card featuring a Christmas quilt was in order. I used the snowflake, festive floral and modern stripe and dot patterned papers in this month’s collection along with some stickers from the sticker sheet.

I cut the side fold card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and adhered the left panel. Using the My Favorite Things Quilt Square Cover-Up die, I die cut the quilt five times (three times with the patterned papers from the kit and two more times with CutCardStock Red Wagon and Scottish Highlands Green cardstock). Using various pieces from each of the cuts, I assembled the quilt and adhered it to the card front. I added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet and adhered a rectangular panel cut from the Red Wagon cardstock to the left side which I embellished with metallic gold thread and another sticker from the sticker sheet.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the festive floral patterned paper and CutCardStock Red Wagon cardstock used on the front. I stamped the sentiment in Catherine Pooler Grass Skirt ink and layered the panel on CutCardStock Scottish Highlands Green cardstock.

Festive Clamshell Gift Box

Hi everyone! I hope you’re having a fabulous week! I’m delighted to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing December 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I absolutely love the variety of papers and coordinating stickers along with the awesome upgrades in this month’s collection. I’ve mentioned many times before that I love making and giving practical gifts, so I created a sturdy clamshell type Christmas gift box that can be used for years to come. I’ve had handwritten instructions for this in my arsenal for quite some time but had never gotten around to making one until a similar box was featured in a recent Splitcoast Stampers newsletter! Sometimes all I need is a reminder to inspire me! ;)

I constructed the shell and box from CutCardStock Kraft Chipboard and used two coordinating papers from the collection to cover the panels along with some sheer red ribbon from my stash for the closure.

I die cut a rectangular element for the top of the box from Solar White cardstock using a Kat Scrappiness Mini Slimline Postage Edge Die and layered it on CutCardStock Pop Tone Wild Cherry cardstock. I added the chipboard Santa and a sentiment rub-on from the upgrades along with some Eyelet Outlet bumpy red bling which completed the box top.

Here are shots of the actual gift box, with the shell opened up. I used CutCardStock Pop Tone Wild Cherry cardstock to cover the hinge and inside of the box.

Merry & Bright Mitten

Hi everyone! A big ol’ Happy Hump Day to you! Another day closer to Christmas! I’m stoked to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing December 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m digging all the festive Christmas prints and traditional colors of the papers in this collection along with the coordinating stickers and upgrades. I love creating shaped cards and used a mitten card template that I designed a number of years ago which you can find HERE if you’d like to play around with it!

Using my template, I cut the mitten card base once from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and again from a snowflake patterned paper in the kit. I fashioned a cuff from a candy stripe patterned paper in the kit layered on CutCardStock Scottish Highlands Green cardstock which I embellished with an Eyelet Outlet 3mm white pearl bling strip. I added hand-cut stripes (from the same paper) also layered on green cardstock. I embellished the mitten with a sentiment banner sticker and several snowflake stickers from the sticker sheet that I popped up on Dimensionals.

Using the template as a guide, I hand-cut the inside panels from 80# Solar White and CutCardStock Scottish Highlands Green cardstock in graduating smaller sizes which I layered together. I embellished the panel with the candy stripe patterned paper and green cardstock used on the front, and added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet.

Holly Jolly Christmas

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday! I’m back again this morning, this time sharing another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project! This adorable Christmas card features quite a few items from the Scandinavian Christmas collection which I’m totally loving! To create this fun scene, I used paper from the Scandinavian Christmas 6×9 Cardstock Pack, stamps and die cut pieces from Santa & Friends, and die cut pieces and stamps from Gnomes!

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding landscape card base from Neenah Classic Crest #110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from papers in the 6×9 Cardstock Pack. I used die cuts from both the Santa & Friends and Gnomes Die Cut Pieces to create the scene, popping some of the presents up on foam dimensionals and using Nuvo Autumn Red and Gloss White Crystal Drops to embellish the tree. I stamped the sentiment from the Santa & Friends Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the papers used on the front, and then stamped the sentiment from the Gnomes Stamps in black ink.

Christmas Double Pleated Fold

Hi friends! I hope it’s not too cold where you are… it’s technically not even Winter yet, lol! We woke up to 2 degrees a couple days ago and I believe it was 8 degrees yesterday morning! I’m delighted to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing December 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m really loving all the Christmas-themed papers, coordinating stickers and upgrades in this month’s collection. I make Christmas cards all year long and already mailed out this year’s cards, so I have a head-start on next year’s! This card features a double pleated fold element on the front created from a houndstooth (on one side) and floral (on the other side) paper which I embellished with the chipboard doll from the upgrades!

I cut a standard A2 size side-folding landscape card base from CutCardStock Basis White cardstock along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Kale Green cardstock. I created the double pleated fold element using paper in the collection. I embellished it with Eyelet Outlet clear jewel brads and clear jewel bling strips and adhered it to the card front in a horizontal fashion. I added the chipboard doll from the upgrades to two layered die cut circles which I adhered to the center of the double pleated fold element. The finishing touch was adding a sentiment using a rub-on from the upgrades.

I cut the inside panel from Basis White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the patterned paper and kale green cardstock used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Oh What Fun stamp set and layered the panel on green cardstock.

I Love Christmas Sticky Note Holder

Hey everybody! Happy Monday! It’s so hard to believe that this is the last week before Christmas! I’m delighted to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing December 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! You know how I love creating 3-D projects, and when they make practical gifts, that’s a definite win-win! This type of sticky pad holder has been around for a while but was recently featured in a Splitcoast Stamper newsletter HERE and inspired me to make one! It’s a fast project that could easily be mass-produced to make stocking stuffers or co-worker gifts!

I cut the easel base and panel from CutCardStock Kraft chipboard. Then the fun began assembling and decorating. ;) I used a pretty Christmas floral patterned paper from the kit and layered it on a panel of CutCardStock Scottish Highlands Green cardstock. I embellished the panel with floral, cardinal and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet along with some Eyelet Outlet bumpy red bling. You can’t tell in the photo, but I popped the cardinal up on mini dimensionals for a little interest.

Like most easel-type projects, this sticky pad holder folds flat for gifting/mailing!

Glittered Ornament

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope you’re having a good week so far! It’s turning out to be a busy morning here. I’ve popped in again to share a Kat Scrappiness Creative Influencer inspiration project featuring the Snowflake Ornament Shaker Card Kit which I used to create a stand-alone ornament. I love making ornaments even though we haven’t put up a Christmas tree for a number of years because of our feline rescues. We recently talked about putting up a tree (anchored to the ceiling and/or wall, lol) with cat toys as ornaments! How fun would that be?! We’ve been so busy with the cabin that we decided to start this tradition next year. Can’t believe we didn’t think of this sooner! Okay, okay, back to my project… ;)

I started by coloring the face of the ornament with alcohol markers, coated it with Art Glitter Dries Clear glue, and applied Stampin’ Up Dazzling Diamonds Glitter. I die cut a circle from CutCardStock Medium Blue cardstock with a Spellbinders Standard Circles Small die to use as the back of the ornament. Next, I adhered the shaker base and added Kat Scrappiness Mirrored Clear Confetti Dot Sequin Mix, 3mm Sparkling Clear Droplets and 4mm Sparkling Clear Droplets as the shaker mix.

I adhered the acetate and then the face. I adhered quite a few more 3mm Sparkling Clear Droplets to embellish the snowflake, and added a Really Reasonable Ribbon silver metallic string hanger and blue checkerboard ribbon bow, which completed the ornament.

Christmas Wallets

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope you’re having a great week so far! I’m stoked to be back on the Printable Cuttable Creatables blog today with another awesome DT inspiration project! This is definitely the time of year to be thinking about gifts, and I’ve made some more Christmas gift card wallets. These are the smaller ones and feature papers from the Christmas Treats Digital Paper Pack which I chose because of the variety of patterns! I love every one of the patterns in this pack!

I made all six bases the same, in assembly-line fashion, from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and rounded the corners on the front flap. I picked out six patterns from the Christmas Treats Digital Paper Pack, printed them on 65# Hammermill copy paper, and cut panels for each of the bases.

I cut the inside panels from CutCardStock Pop Tone Wild Cherry cardstock and stamped a sentiment from the STAMPlorations Christmas Reindeer stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered small disc magnets to each one with Ranger distress collage medium and added decorative punched circles as closures to the flaps.

Weekender Handbag

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a great weekend and it’s not too awfully cold where you are… it’s pretty darn chilly here but we don’t mind it! I’m excited to be back to share my last project using the ScrapbookingStore’s amazing November 2022 Scrapbook Kit… and now we wait for the December kit! I love the versatility and vintage feel of the papers in this collection. As you undoubtedly know, I’m a huge fan of paper purses and have a growing collection, so I created a fun Weekender Handbag which definitely has more of a vintage feel than seasonal. See what I mean about versatile papers?!

Using the Concord & 9th Weekender Handbag dies, I cut the handbag pieces from two coordinating patterned papers in the collection along with a scrap of CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock. I assembled the purse and added a small Inky Stamper Papercrafting Velcro closure.

Here’s a shot of the back. Paper purses can be used as is for collections like mine, or they can be used as gift bags to hold a gift card, cash, jewelry, or candy! The possibilities are endless!
