Hey everybody, I hope you’re having a great weekend and doing something fun! I’m up on the Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L blog today sharing a tutorial for making a tall tented easel card. I used some fun papers, stamps and dies in my stash for this delightful friendship card. I employed my new favorite ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique for the banner and the glittery lines across the base, and of course, used some of the best adhesives in the land to put it all together!

I’ve made quite a few tented easel cards over the years but this is the first tall one I’ve made. I had to tweak the measurements a bit to make it taller so the banner would fit above the bird. Be sure to see my tutorial on the Scrapbook Adhesives blog if you want to learn how to make this taller version. I used E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser, Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix, 3D Foam Squares White Mix and Dual Tip Glue Pen for the assembly.

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis 12×12 Aqua cardstock along with layering panels from a print in the Craft Consortium Ink Drops – Vivid Double-Sided 6×6 Paper Pad. The image and sentiments are from the Prickley Pear Stamps Hey Girl Hey stamps and dies, stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink and colored with a variety of markers.

I employed the ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique to create the banner using the 3D Foam Pennants and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors, along with 3D Foam Micro Squares and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors for the tiny embellishments beside the letters on the pennants. I also used Adhesive Lines and diamond glitter in my stash for the lines across the base which are kind of hard to see in the photos but really add some pretty sparkle.

The inside sentiment panel was cut from Solar White cardstock and another sentiment from the Hey Girl Hey stamp set was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink. I added an embellishing strip with the glittered lines to the top of the panel to match the base. I’ve included one final side shot so you can see the cool construction. I love how this turned out!

Hey everybody! I hope your Valentine week has started off nicely! I have a pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the February 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This month’s kit features a custom paper assortment from Echo Park and Carta Bella, with a Carta Bella sticker sheet, and Prima ephemera in the upgrades. So, so pretty! If you love a mix of pinks and reds, this kit is for you!

I cut the card base and faux panel from CutCardStock Lessebo Dawn Maroon cardstock along with layering panels from assorted prints in the kit. I used several pieces of ephemera from the upgrades, and finished off the front with a few clear gemstones.

I cut the back panel from white cardstock and embellished it with a strip of paper used on the front. I added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet in the collection which completed the card.

Sending a happy hello

Hey everybody, Happy Wednesday! I hope you’re having a great week! I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a masculine faux center step card featuring papers, stamps, ephemera and sequins from our new ‘For Him’ release which I totally love! Our design team has been sharing lots of samples in case there’s anybody out there who gets stumped making masculine cards. This fun fold is right up there at the top of my list of favorites and I’ve made quite a few of them. ;)

I cut the card base and faux center panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from papers in our A Spot of Autumn and Neutrals 6×6 Paper Packs. I used stamps from the Heartfelt Hello Stamp Set for the sentiment and then added a hat from the Vintage Escapes Ephemera. The finishing touch was adding several gemstones from the For Him Sequin Mix.

I cut the inside panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip of the plaid paper used on the front and sunglasses from the Vintage Escapes Ephemera. I stamped a sentiment from the Summer Botany Stamp Set and then layered the panel on a panel cut from the Matte Mirror Pastel Cardstock Bundle. The finishing touch (and optional step) was adding a panel of paper from our A Spot of Autumn 6×6 Paper Pack. For more details, be sure to visit the Love From Lizi blog to see my tutorial. ;)

Spring Wishes

Hey everybody, happy Wednesday and happy Spring! It’s still a little chilly here but our temps are rising and I do believe Spring is in the air. I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a circular easel card with an acetate front. This card features our Rise and Shine Stamp Set, Floral Wellington Boot Cutting die, and Matte Silver Sway Peel-Off Stickers – all from our March release. I also used additional dies, papers and embellishments from the store. This card may look daunting but it’s really fairly simple, so be sure to check out my tutorial on the Love From Lizi blog if you’d like to learn how to make it.

I cut the card base, frames and a couple layers from CutCardStock Basis 80# White 12×12 cardstock. I also cut a layering panel from a red floral print in the Love You paper pack, as well as frames and a layering panel from a red print in the Linen Rainbow paper pack. Using the Floral Wellington Boot Cutting Die, I die cut two wellies from a coordinating print in the Love You paper pack, trimmed off the floral element and added a small strip of Matte Silver Sway Peel-Off Sticker to each.

I added a strip of white pearls to the front of each wellie, and also added a sole to each of the wellies by cutting the very bottom portion from a red linen scrap and trimming it down. I used the Winter Roses Cutting Dies to cut the white roses from white cardstock to embellish the background of the acetate panel, and then added the wellies. I layered circular die cuts to the inside and added a sentiment from the Rise and Shine stamp set, stamped in red ink, and popped up on adhesive foam which doubled as the stopper.

Here are a couple additional shots. As an optional step, I added a custom sentiment that I typed on my computer as well as a leftover frame to the bottom of the card to create an area to sign and/or write a short message.

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday – the weeks sure are flying by! I have a fun ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the awesome October 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. The papers and coordinating spooky elements in this collection are some of the best! I’ve had handwritten instructions for a triple easel card in my arsenal for quite some time and decided it was (finally) time to make one. So fun, and I sure love how it turned out!

I cut the three easel card bases from CutCardStock Lessebo Amethyst along with layering panels from Lessebo Pitch Black and two purple coordinating prints in this month’s kit. I embellished each easel with papers and stickers from the collection, stickers from two of the upgrades, and gemstones from my stash. I created a ‘stopper’ on the front easel with a Keep It Simple Crafty Girls button and a tiny bow tied from Doodlebug Design Lily White Doodle Twine.

Here’s a shot of the card folded up flat, ready to mail. I love it!

Hey everybody! Happy Sunday! It’s almost the middle of February already – time sure is flying by! I’m stoked to be back with another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share with you today! I so love the Household Chore Gnomes Collection – these guys are so cool and you know how I love me some gnomes! ;) I created a center step card featuring items from the Die Cut Pieces and Gnome Collection Pack 6×6 Double Sided Cardstock, along with the Back to Basics Royal Collection Pack 6×6 Double-Sided Cardstock and Royal Enamel Dots.

I die cut the easel card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and the layering panels from the Gnome Collection Pack 6×6 Double-Sided Cardstock. I selected a light blue cardstock from the Royal Collection Pack 6×6 Double-Sided Cardstock which I tore to create a puddle of water. Then I added the gnome, cleaning supplies and sentiment from the Die Cut Pieces, and added some Royal Enamel Dots. I tied a blue twine bow on the sentiment which completed the card front.

For the back, I die cut layering panels from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and the Gnome Collection Pack, then fussy cut the sentiment from a card in the Die Cut Pieces. Isn’t that sentiment a hoot?! Love how this turned out!
