Camera Mini Album

Hi everyone! Happy Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a great week and you’re looking forward to a weekend full of awesomeness! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the absolutley lovely May 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. The paper pad in this month’s collection is divine, as are the upgrades, and I had such fun! I’ve had my Cricut out again and created an adorable camera mini album using a cut file in my arsenal. The fun thing about this particular mini album is the hidden binding. I have several more cut files for hidden binding mini albums, so stay tuned! I don’t know when I’ll get to making the rest of them but I sure plan on it!

I cut the album cover and inside pages from CutCardStock Desert Storm cardstock and all the album elements in the cut file from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice, Sweet Tooth, Jellybean Green and Lemon Drop. I then cut layering panels from a variety of pretty papers in this month’s kit and embellished the pages with chipboard stickers, adhesive gems and washi tape from the upgrades. I made pockets for several of the pages with my WRMK Pocket Punch Board along with pull-out inserts, leaving plenty of room for photos and journaling.

Here are shots of the entire album. This was definitely a fun one!

Baby Boy Bun in the Oven

Hey everybody, Happy Tuesday! I hope all the moms (to humans or furbabies) out there had a beautiful Mother’s Day! We had wonderful weather here – still a bit chilly and windy – but beautiful nonetheless! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a super cute oven box card with a baby boy ‘bun in the oven’ theme! I used Stardream Metallic cardstock (on sale throughout the month of May) which I paired with Lessebo cardstock. This is actually the second one of these oven box cards I’ve made so it went together pretty fast. I created the first one in a pink baby girl theme for a guest design project coming up in a couple of weeks, so stay tuned for a ‘mostly the same but slightly different’ version!

Using the Spellbinders Pop-Up 3D Vignette What’s Bakin’ Oven dies, I cut all the pieces from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Sapphire, Stardream Metallic Vista, Stardream Metallic Silver, Lessebo Ivory, Lessebo Pitch Black, Lessebo Coffee Bean, and Lessebo Cherry Red. I used Grafix Crystal Clear Acetate for the ‘glass’ in the oven door, along with pieces of Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Squares to pop up the cookie sheet, oven mitts and utensils.

The assembly is always the most fun part of making 3D projects and this one was no different! I used the Keep It Simple Stitched Rectangles Nested Dies to cut a panel from Lessebo Ivory cardstock for the back of the oven. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Happy & Heartfelt stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink which completed the card.

Here are a couple angled shots and two more shots showing that the top of the oven opens so the card can fold flat for mailing. I just love it!

Oh Baby envelope mini album

Hey everybody! I sure hope you’re having a beautiful weekend! We were outside a good part of yesterday putting up a fence around the garden to keep the deer from eating Ed’s strawberries and raspberries. Not too long ago a small herd of about 16-18 meandered into our side yard and guess where about half of them ended up?! Yep, in the garden eating the yummy fruit, lol!

In honor of National Scrapbooking Day, which was yesterday, I have a sweet Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share! I created an adorable baby-themed envelope mini album featuring our new Floral Baby Collection, new KIS Background Cuts Quilted Hearts die, and an assortment of nested dies and enamel shapes already in the store. I’ve added a tutorial for an envelope mini album to the Freebies section of my blog HERE if you’d like to make one. They are quite fun and can be made from any size envelopes!

And don’t forget to use my code LoveToScrap2 for an additional 10% off your entire purchase!

I created the mini album from CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft envelopes and embellished all the pages with panels cut from papers in the new Floral Baby 6×9 and 12×12 Collection Packs. I used the new KIS Background Cuts Quilted Hearts die to cut front and back panels from CutCardStock Basis Soft Pink cardstock which I embellished with die cuts from the Floral Baby Die Cut Pieces.

For the inside pages, I cut ovals and rectangles from Solar White cardstock using the Back To Basics Stitched Ovals Nested Dies and Stitched Rectangles Nested Dies. I added tags from the Collection Packs along with a few more die cuts. There are also pull ups and pull outs which creates plenty of room for photos and journaling. The finishing touch was adding Back To Basics Rose Enamel Hearts and Rose Enamel Dots to the front and several of the inside pages.

Merry Christmas Shadow Box

Hey everybody! I hope you’re having a great week – we’re halfway to the weekend! Our new challenge launched this morning over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m stoked to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #56 – Anything Christmas Goes! I made THE cutest little round shadow box featuring papers and die cuts from the Keep It Simple Scandinavian Christmas Collection! This could easily be used as a Christmas ornament or a wall decoration. And the coolest part is that the circle is an upcycled chipboard packaging ring from a new vacuum cleaner I bought a while back… there were three of them in the box (different sizes) and I saved them all from the landfill! Yay me! ;)

I started by covering the inside and outside of the ring with 3/4″ strips of paper from the Keep It Simple Scandinavian Christmas 6×9 Collection Pack. I used my Cricut Joy to cut a circle which I adhered to the back of the ring. I picked out several die cuts to create the little scene from the Scandinavian Christmas Gnomes and Santa & Friends Die Cut Pieces. A heart was added to the gnome’s letter popped up on a 3D foam square, and then I addded the gnome and tree on pop-up elements I made from CutCardStock Cougar 100# Smooth White cardstock.

I framed the sentiment on a scrap of red patterned paper from the Collection Pack and popped it up on a 1″ double-sided foam strip. I framed the ring with alternating drops of Nuvo Wedgewood Blue and Ivory Seashell Crystal Drops, and added a bow and hanger from Doodlebug Design Lily White Doodle Twine.

Here’s a shot of the back. I covered the ends of the twine hanger with a small stitched circle cut from the same paper using a Keep It Simple Stitched Circles Nested Die, which completed the project. So fun!

Earrings Galore!

Hey everybody – a very Happy Monday to you all! I made my daughter-in-law a bunch of dangle earrings back in February and wanted to share them. I made some of them from craft leather and some from cardstock, and some were cut with my Cricut and some were cut with dies. They all turned out pretty cool and she said she loved them! Oh, and I cut all the earring cards with my Cricut also, using a free earring card SVG cut file on Cricut Design Space and CutCardStock Twine cardstock. I tweaked the length and wideth to make the cards different sizes.

These four pairs were made from Taylored Expressions craft leather, CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil and Curious Metallic Gold Leaf cardstock, and several Designer Dangles die sets. The fringe earrings were embellished with Kat Scrappiness Silver Pearl Mix. TE no longer carries the craft leather or the Designer Dangle die sets; I’ve had mine for several years and I’m so glad I got them when I did!

These two pairs were cut with my Cricut Explore Air 2 from Taylored Expressions craft leather using the FREE Printable Cuttable Creatables Classic Earrings SVG cut file. A two-fer… the first pair features the outsides and the second pair features the insides! I almost threw the inside pieces away when I took them off my cutting mat and thought ‘No way – I’m gonna make another pair out of these!’

These two pairs were cut from cardstock using two sets of Taylored Expressions Designer Dangles. The blue ones were cut from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Vista and Stardream Metallic Sapphire cardstock, embellished with gemstones from the Trinity Stamps Sparkling Sapphire Embellishment Mix. The green ones were cut from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Fairway and Curious Metallic Aloe cardstock, embellished with Eyelet Outlet 3mm and 5mm green pearls. Gemstones and pearls were applied with my Trinity Stamps Pick Up Stick.

These four pairs were cut with my Cricut Explore Air 2 from cardstock using the FREE Printable Cuttable Creatables July 4th Earrings and Scroll Earrings SVG cut files. The three Americana pairs were cut from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Jupiter, Stardream Metallic Pluto and Stardream Metallic Sapphire cardstock. The scroll earrings were cut from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Vista cardstock and embellished with Eyelet Outlet 4mm blue pearls (applied with my Trinity Stamps Pick Up Stick).

Happy Easter Handbag

Howdy peeps! I hope you’re having a great week! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you this morning created with the awesome April 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. You know how I love me some paper purses, and I just couldn’t resist making one with these gorgeous double-sided papers! I dug into my SVG cut file arsenal and once again used Luxury Handbags from SVG Cuts. There are several purses in this file and I chose the boho style handbag this time. I aim to make all of them at some point! ;)

Using my Cricut Exlore Air 2 and the SVG Cuts Luxury Handbags cut file, I cut the purse, pocket, strap, and little tag embellishments for the boho syle handbag from a pretty floral and gingham double-sided paper in the kit. I used some ancient flock-covered brads in my stash (pretty sure I’ve had them since 2006, lol) to secure each side of the strap. I made a tassel with my We R Memory Keepers The Works All In One Tool and some white yarn in my stash which I attached to the strap with the tags utilizing a small ball chain.

I added a Pink Paislee 5th & Monaco Flower Embellishment (left over from last month’s kit) to the front pocket and a sentiment sticker which I layered onto paper in the kit, trimmed, and adhered over the pocket. I included an angled back shot of the handbag. So stinkin’ cute!

Happy Birthday Cake Treat Box

Hi friends! Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had an awesome week and now it’s time for some fun this weekend, hopefully! I’m thrilled to share that I was a Top Cut recently over at Cut It Up Challenge Blog and was invited to guest in an upcoming challenge, so here I am just in time for Challenge #300 – Happy Birthday! A birthday cake treat box couldn’t be more appropriate to create to help them celebrate their birthday! I used an SVG cut file in my arsenal along with cardstock, pearls and lace from my stash. I dyed the white lace with antique linen distress ink and used the draw feature on my cutting machine for the tag. Saying I had ‘fun’ with this project would be an understatement… it was a blast and I love how it turned out!

Using the Dreaming Tree Petite Cake SVG cut file with my Cricut Explore Air 2, I cut the cake pieces with CutCardStock Lessebo Ivory, the icing pieces with CutCardStock Pop Tone Cotton Candy, the chocolate curls with CutCardStock Pop Tone Hot Fudge, and the cherry with Stampin’ Up Red Glimmer paper and CutCardStock Lessebo Hunter Green cardstock. I used the draw function and a Cricut 1.0 Gold Metallic Marker on my cutting machine for the tag which I cut with a My Favorite Things Essential Fish Tail Sentiment Strip.

The assembly is always the most fun. I embellished the top of the cake with Eyelet Outlet ivory pearls along with 3 Girl JAM lace which I dyed with Ranger antique linen distress ink and misted water in my Tim Holtz distress sprayer. I attached the tag with a Gina K Designs Shaker Strip to give it the same height as the pearls.

Here’s a shot with the lid removed. It’s actually a good-sized little box – big enough to hold a small gift or some candy. Totally fun! ;)

The Mini Jungle Book

Hey everybody, Happy Hump Day! I’ve popped in this morning to share a super cute jungle-themed mini book! I mentioned a while back that I have started making these little books with inchies for a new inchie album collection. They are so stinkin’ cute and fun to make, and this one fits perfectly into Challenge #216 – Safari over at Cardz 4 Galz! The inchies are from the Gecko Galz Safari Jewel It digital sheet.

I crafted the mini book base from CutCardStock Basis 80# White cardstock and covered it with a print from the American Crafts Animal Print 6×6 paper pad. I printed the Gecko Galz Safari Jewel It digital sheet on Basis White cardstock and punched the eight images I wanted to use with an EK Success 1″ square punch. The book name was computer-generated, trimmed and edged with a Tombow marker.

I’ve had the Splitcoast Stampers tutorial for the diamond shaped ornament (HERE) in my arsenal for quite some time and have never made one, so I decided it was time! I stamped the penguin on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored it with alcohol markers, and cut it with a Keep It Simple Stitched Circles Nested Die. Similarly, I stamped the sentiment on a Solar White scrap and trimmed it into a flag. I used Keep It Simple double-sided pink paper for the ornament and Rose ribbon for the bow, along with Really Reasonable Ribbon silver metallic cord for the hanger. I embellished the ornament with individual sequin bits pulled from the Buttons Galore & More Blizzard Sequin Mix.

Hi friends! Happy New Year! I hope you have a wonderful and relaxing day!
