Dreams Do Come True

Hey everybody, Happy Monday – I hope you had a good weekend! I’ve popped in this morning with a super cute Keep It Simple DT inspiration project featuring papers, stamps and dies from our new Best Day Ever collection along with our new Confetti stencil. I created a swing flap fun fold (one of my all-time favorites) and I totally love how this turned out! Such a fun collection!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Dark Red along with layering panels from the Best Day Ever 12×12 Collection Pack. Using a Back To Basics Stitched Squares Nested Die, I cut a square aperture from the front flap. I then cut an additional square from CutCardStock Savoy Bright White Cotton cardstock which I embellished using the Confetti stencil and Catherine Pooler Sauna, Suede Shoes and Rockin’ Red inks. I also stamped several images and a sentiment from the Best Day Ever Collection Stamps, colored them with assorted markers, and cut them with the Best Day Ever Outline Dies.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with the patterned paper panels. I stamped an additional sentiment and a couple stars from the same Best Day Ever Collection Stamps and cut them with the coordinating Best Day Ever Outline Dies. Love, love, love how this turned out!

That’s What Friends Are Spore

Hi friends, happy Friday to you – I hope you’ve had a great week with some nice-ish weather! I’m delighted to share a Brutus Monroe DT inspiration project today featuring the super cute That’s What Friends Are Spore stamps and dies which I paired with our Not Your Mamas and Aubergine cardstock and Plaid Petals paper. I’m gathering ideas for some DIY Christmas gifts to tuck into Christmas cards, and thought this easel style post-it note holder would be a fun one. It’s such an easy project (with an adorable pun) that entails simple layering, stamping and die cutting, and I’ll share the instructions below.

Cut the easel style base from heavyweight white cardstock at 3-1/4″ x 8-1/2″ and score it at 4-1/4″ and 6-3/8″. Cut the easel panel at 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″. Fold on the score lines and burnish with a bone folder. Cut cardstock layering panels at 3-1/8″ x 4-1/8″ for the easel panel and 2″ x 3-1/8″ for the middle section of the base (on the back) between the score lines. Cut patterned paper at 3″ x 4″ for the easel panel and 1-7/8″ x 3″ for the middle section of the base. Adhere the easel panel to the base and decorate it as desired.

I used the That’s What Friends Are Spore stamp set, stamped in Raven ink, and colored with alcohol markers. I cut the image with the coordinating That’s What Friends Are Spore die set and a adhered it to the easel panel. I stamped the sentiment (from the same stamp set) directly on the panel in Raven ink.

Here is an angled shot and one with the holder closed flat for mailing. So easy and can be tailored for any theme, holiday or occasion!

missing you

Hey everybody, happy Thursday – I hope life is treating you well! I’m delighted to share a Scrapbook Pal DT inspiration project with you today which features the Light Burst Cover Plate Die, Flourishes & Sentiments stamps and dies, and Sea Glass ink – all from Catherine Pooler Designs. This pretty friendship card was really easy to make and would be a great one to mass produce to build up your card stash. I have some other ideas brewing in my head for the next time I use this cover plate die, so stay tuned! This cover plate die and the sentiment stamps and dies are super versatile!

I grabbed a Neenah Classic Crest 110# A2 Folded Card Base and added a panel of CutCardStock Lessebo Sweet Mint to the front. Using the Catherine Pooler Light Burst Cover Plate Die, I cut three layers from Celebration Warehouse Seafoam Green Smooth cardstock and adhered them together. I cut just the round center portion from CutCardStock Galax Canvas Texture and again from Light Yellow cardstock and placed the pieces into the negative spaces in the background just to give the design an extra pop of color.

I stamped a sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Flourishes & Sentiments stamp set in Catherine Pooler Sea Glass ink and cut it with the coordinating Flourishes & Sentiments die. I adhered the sentiment in the lower right corner, popping it up on foam squares, and then added an Eyelet Outlet yellow enamel dot, which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with leftover strips of the Galax and Sweet Mint cardstock. I stamped another sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Flourishes & Sentiments stamps in her Sea Glass ink, cut it with the coordinating die, and layered the panel on Celebration Warehouse Seafoam Green Smooth cardstock.

Hello Sweet Summertime

8/9/25 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey, everybody – Happy Tuesday! I’m back with my third post this morning… this time to let you know that I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a sweet (pun intended) summertime box card. After all, we are still in the throes of Summer and I know most folks are wishing it would start cooling off. I’ve had lots of Cricut playtime over the past couple months since we moved. Ed built me a nice 4′ x 6′ craft table and I love having the extra space to keep my Cricut out. I know I’ll use it more often now that it no longer lives in a cabinet, lol!

At any rate, this awesome SVG cut file is from Cyndy G SVG and I’m totally enamored with it. Ed and I LOVE watermelon so this was right up my alley. I used Lessebo Coffee Bean, Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White, Pop Tone Black Licorice, Pop Tone Red Hot, Pop Tone Banana Split, Pop Tone Gumdrop Green, Pop Tone Jellybean Green, Pop Tone Hot Fudge, and Scottish Highlands Green – all available on the CutCardStock website.

Using the Watermelon Crate Box Card SVG cut file from Cyndy G SVG, I cut the crate from Lessebo Coffee Bean and Pop Tone Hot Fudge; the inserts from Lessebo Coffee Bean; the watermelons from Pop Tone Black Licorice, Pop Tone Red Hot, Pop Tone Gumdrop Green and Pop Tone Jellybean Green; the flowers from Pop Tone Banana Split; and the vines from Scottish Highlands Green.

You’ve heard me say a hundred times that the assembly is always the most fun part of making these kinds of projects. Well, this one was no exception – I had a blast! Once the box and inserts were assembled, I used alpha stickers from the Carta Bella Flora No. 6 Collection Kit to spell HELLO on the crate, and embellished the flowers with Echo Park My Favorite Summer Adhesive Brads.

I cut the sentiment panel on the back from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White and Scottish Highlands Green. I added a sentiment sticker from Echo Park My Favorite Summer Collection Kit, which completed the card. I’ve included below an additional angled shot. If you’d like a few more details on how this card went together, be sure to see my tutorial on the CutCardStock blog. ;)

Just Rowing by to say HI

Hey everybody, I hope your week has started off on a nice note and your weather isn’t too awfully hot where you are. I’m back this morning with another post for Keep It Simple. It’s turning out to be a busy day on my blog and I’m glad you’re here! I created a library pocket card featuring papers, stamps and dies from our new Vikings collection. OMGoodness, this is such an amazing collection and I see it getting a lot of use! And of course, this library pocket card really shows off these fun products! I do have typed instructions for this fold, so if you’d like to have them, let me know!

I cut the pocket and insert from CutCardStock Royal Sundance Kraft Fiber cardstock and rounded the corners on the flap. I cut layering panels from coordinating prints in the Vikings 6×9 Collection Pack to embellish the front. I stamped the focal image from the Vikings Collection Stamps in Memento Espresso Truffle ink and colored it with an assortment of markers. I cut it with the coordinating Vikings Outline Die and adhered it to the pocket front with thin foam squares. The finishing touch for the front was adding the sentiment (from the same stamp set) which I stamped in the brown ink and trimmed.

I rounded the corners of the insert and embellished it with coordinating papers from the Vikings Collection Pack. I stamped another sentiment in the brown ink and added a stamped and die cut helmet. This is so stinkin’ cute I can’t stand it!

You’re the Fairest of them All

Hey everybody, I hope you’re having a terrific Tuesday! Not sure why but our day temps have been in the mid to upper 70s – and nights in the upper 50s to low 60s! I can dig it! I’m delighted to share another inspiration project for Keep It Simple created with our new Once Upon A Time: Snow White collection. I used papers, stamps and dies from this new collection to make an awesome twisted gate fold, and enjoyed every minute of it. This is such a fantastic fold that’s really easy and packs a punch.

Cut the card base from Papertrey Ink Prairie Grass cardstock at 7-1/2″ x 4-1/4″, scored at 2-1/2″ and 5″. This panel now is divided into three sections. Score the left and right sections from the upper left corner diagonally down to the bottom right corner, leaving the middle section alone. Mountain fold the two diagonal score lines and valley fold the two straight score lines, using a bone folder to burnish the creases.

Cut two panels of patterned paper from the Snow White 12×12 Collection Pack at 2-1/4″ x 3-7/8″ and decide which print you want for the ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ flaps. For the upper flaps (the yellow print on my project), cut the panel diagonally from the upper left corner down to the lower right corner. For the lower flaps (the green print on my project), cut the upper right corner down to the lower left corner. Adhere the panels to the flaps.

Using the Snow White Collection Stamps, stamp Snow White on Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Color her with alcohol markers, cut her with the coordinating Outline Die, and adhere her to the card front. Be sure to apply the adhesive only to one side so the card opens and closes properly. Stamp the first part of the sentiment (from the same stamp set) in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

The sentiment was too large to fit on the inside panel, so I stamped it on a full sheet of 80# Solar White and ran it through the laser printer on 50% reduction. I trimmed the panel and layered it on a slightly larger panel of the Prairie Grass cardstock, and this completed the card. Love, love, love how this turned out!

8/2/25 Weekly Favorite (favorited by two fellow crafters) at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody, happy Friday and happy August! Where in the world did July go?! I’m thrilled to share a Brutus Monroe DT inspiration project today featuring the Happy Crab stamp set from our June release. I created a birthday card and put the crab on a wobble element (cute, cute, cute!), stamped a couple shells from the Fishing You stamp set, and added some seashell brads from my stash. Super easy card!

The paper I used for the background is from the Watercolor Waves 6×6 Paper Collection which, unbeknownst to me, was the June Paper Pad of the Month. That means it was a limited edition item that was only available during the month of June. I didn’t know this and created the card in July, not realizing the paper is no longer available. But I did message our DT leader and was given the okay to go ahead and post the card since no one else had made any samples using this paper pad. It’s a totally awesome paper pad and I apologize if anyone wants it. For what it’s worth, I linked to the Paper Pad of the Month below, but just remember that the paper pads in this subscription are only available during the month they are showcased or while supplies last.

I grabbed a pre-scored A2 card base and adhered a layering panel cut from a print in the Watercolor Waves paper collection. Now that we know this particular paper is no longer available, any water, beach or ocean paper would work for this card. I stamped a couple shells from the Fishing You stamp set and colored them with assorted markers. I took the prongs off of some seashell brads in my stash and adhered them as part of the scene. I stamped the crab from the Happy Crab stamp set on Perfect Blend cardstock in Raven ink and colored him with an assortment of markers. I fussy cut him and attached him to a Hampton Art mini action spring wobble. I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Crab stamp set and added a few Violet Shift Flat Back Crystals.

I cut the inside panel from Perfect Blend cardstock and embellished it with leftover paper strips. I stamped a sentiment from the Occasional Greetings stamp set in Raven ink and layered the panel on Harvest cardstock.

Everybody knows how cute wobble elements are but I couldn’t resist adding a little one-second video! Isn’t he just the cutest ever?!

Thinking of You

Hi friends, it’s Friday (again) and I hope you have something fabulous planned this weekend. I just can’t believe how fast the days, weeks and months are flying by! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Creative Creases and I’m thrilled to share my DT inspiration project for Challenge #106. I love pansies and I really enjoyed putting this card together. I made it a while back for a friend battling cancer and I’m not even sure she received it. I had sent her several cards and never got a response about any of them, so I just don’t know. If she did get it, I hope she enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed making it. ;)

Using the Wheelbarrow Box Card cut file from Cyndy G SVG, I cut all the pieces from CutCardStock Pop Tone Hot Fudge, Pop Tone Black Licorice, Pop Tone Grapesicle, Pop Tone Lemon Drop, Pop Tone Sweet Tooth, Pop Tone Grape Jelly and Pop Tone Jellybean Green cardstock. In looking back, I wish I had used a woodgrain stamp on the background. I will definitely do that the next time I use this cut file.

Here’s a shot of the back. I stamped a sentiment from The Cat’s Pajamas Simply Stacked Sentiments stamp set in Memento Rich Cocoa ink. Easy peasy and sure packs a punch!

Let’s Party Like It’s 1000 BC

Hey y’all, I’m baaaack! In my last post, I mentioned that I have two Keep It Simple DT inspiration projects to share today, and this second one is a shirt card featuring papers and die cut pieces from our brand new Vikings Collection that just launched yesterday. I totally love this collection and I just HAD to make another shirt card using my own template. I hope you’re not too tired of seeing shirt cards, lol, because I’ve made quite a few of them over the past several months. They are so fun and everybody loves them!

I cut the card base (shirt, sleeves and collar) from CutCardStock Lessebo White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Vikings 12×12 Collection Pack. I used Back To Basics Jade Enamel Dots for the buttons and added a sentiment from the Vikings Die Cut Pieces.

I cut the inside panel from Lessebo White as well, and embellished it with a leftover strip of the paper used for the shirt. I added another sentiment and two more die cuts from the Vikings Die Cut Pieces, which completed the card. Easy peasy and totally adorable!

Living the fairytale

Hey everybody, happy weekend! Dang, I just can’t get over how fast this month has flown by! I have a couple Keep It Simple inspiration projects to share today (in separate posts) and they both are so stinkin’ cute, I can’t stand it! This one is a matchbox pop-up and features our new Once Upon A Time: Snow White Collection that launched a couple weeks ago… if you’re a princess fan, this collection is definitely for you. I’ve only made one of these matchbox pop-ups prior to this one and I’ve had the notes in my folder for so long I don’t remember where I originally saw it. But if you search for it online, you’ll find quite a few out there. It’s a fun one, for sure, and really packs a punch!

I cut the box base and slide-in from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels for both pieces from coordinating prints in the Snow White 6×9 Collection Pack. I grabbed the Snow White Die Cut Pieces and picked out a sentiment, Snow White, the seven dwarfs, and some critters to embellish both pieces. This project went together seamlessly and I just love how it turned out!
