Seeking Treasure

Hey everybody, happy Thursday! I hope you’re having a good week! I’m delighted to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today that features papers and die cut pieces from our new Sea Pirates collection that just went live a few days ago! Aren’t these products just THE cutest?! To create this fun diorama card, I used our trusty 3D Diorama Card Dies for the base and then added the die cut pieces. This was such a fun card to make!

Using our 3D Diorama Card Dies, cut the card base from CutCardStock Sand Castle cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Sea Pirates 12×12 Collection Pack. I grabbed a handful of die cuts from the Sea Pirates Die Cut Pieces and adhered them to the inserts and the back, popping some of them up with our Adhesive Basics Foam Adhesive Squares. I added the sentiment to the top right corner, and the card was finished! Easy Peasy!

Here’s a shot of the card flattened out for mailing.

Hi friends – I hope you’re having a great day and it’s not too hot where you are! I have THE cutest Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today. I totally love the flower pot pocket card, so I decided to make one using one of our newer collections. This adorable card features papers, stamps and dies from our Bugs collection, and makes such a fun card for a kid… or a kid-at-heart adult! That caterpillar is beyond cute!

I cut the card base and pull-up card from CutCardStock Lessebo Coffee Bean cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Bugs 6×9 collection pack. I used 165# Solar White to layer onto the pull-up card. I grabbed a KIS Cuts Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle die to cut the scallop edge and then tied some Back To Basics Jute Twine around the card.

I stamped a sentiment and several images from the Bugs Collections stamps on 80# Solar White cardstock and colored them with a variety of markers. I cut them with the coordinating Outline dies and popped a few of them up on our Back To Basics Adhesive Squares.

All that was left to do was stamp a sentiment on the pull-up card. Is that not the cutest card ever?! Love how this one turned out! The next one I make I think I will use acetate on the top portion of the pull-up card. ;)

Hi friends, I hope you’re having a wonderful week! Can you believe it’s the last day of July already? Time is flying by! I have a super cute and very easy Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today! It’s a simple Z-fold featuring our new KIS Cuts Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangles along with papers and die cut pieces from the Life Is Sweet collection. As if you couldn’t already tell, this is one of my favorite collections – it makes THE cutest cards ever!

Using the KIS Cuts Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangles, I cut the card base and made the score lines for the Z-fold. I cut partial scallop rectangles from several coordinating prints in the Life Is Sweet 6×9 Collection Pack using the same die.

I embellished the side front and inside with Life Is Sweet Die Cut Pieces, popping a few of them up on foam squares. Added a few Back To Basics Lemon Enamel Dots, which completed this adorable card. Such a fun design – the scallops really lend a playful feel to this card!

Happy Holidays

Howdy, peeps! I hope you’ve had a good week and you’re gonna have some fun this weekend! I’m delighted to share an inspiration project for Keep It Simple that I created for our Christmas In July Showcase! There is a $50 gift card AND 2 tickets to any Stamp & Scrapbook Expo up for grabs for one lucky winner! Just look for the Christmas in July Showcase and Giveaway header in my post on Instagram which will give all the details. Be sure to visit all the designers’ posts, like and leave a comment on each in order to participate in the giveaway.

This diamond panel card is a design I came up with last year for a project on another design team. It’s a super easy one that is customizable and makes some really cute Christmas cards! I used items from our Very Merry Gnomes, Here Comes Santa and Scandinavian Christmas collections. If you haven’t checked out our Christmas collections yet, you really should because we have some of the cutest!

This design involves simply cutting 1-5/8″ off the front flap, then cutting that strip into three 1-5/8″ squares, and adhering them to the right side of the shortened flap in a diamond orientation. I popped up the center diamond on foam squares. You have the option of making the squares slightly smaller or slightly larger, depending on how you plan to embellish them, and then just cut the layering panels 1/8″ smaller. That’s it!

I used papers, a kitty gnome stamp and coordinating outline die from the Very Merry Gnomes collection along with a heat embossed sentiment from the Scandinavian Christmas Gnomes collection. The finishing touch on the front was adding a couple Back To Basics Jade Enamel Hearts.

I embellished the inside with a leftover strip of the green stripe paper used on the front. I then cut the narrow inside panel from 80# Solar White, stamped an outlined heart from the Very Merry Gnomes collection stamps, and added a die cut sentiment from the Here Comes Santa collection. Seriously, this couldn’t have been any easier, and turned out so darn cute!

Hi friends, I hope you’re having a great week and it’s not too awfully hot where you are. It’s pretty warm here but we’re tolerating it. Have to admit that I’m definitely ready for Fall, though! LOL! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today featuring papers and die cut pieces from our new Autumn Harvest collection. This tiered pinwheel twist is one of my all-time favorite fun folds and it has been a while since I made one. My inspiration for this particular design originally came from Sam Calcott over at Mixed Up Craft several years ago. There are a few versions of the pinwheel card out there but I thought this one would be perfect to show off the super cute papers and die cuts in this collection! So fun!

I cut the base and panels from CutCardStock Glama Brown Kraft along with layering panels from several coordinating prints in the Autumn Harvest 6×9 Collection Pack. Since I’m a green girl, I stuck with the green gingham pattern on the front side of the tiered panels and then used four other prints in the collection for the panels on the back side. Then I matched the die cut pieces with the paper in each section and added a combination of Back To Basics Ruby, Mango and Jade Enamel Hearts. Here are shots of the second and third sides.

I left one panel plain at the very bottom of the fourth side to write a custom message and sign. I really like how this turned out!

Hey everybody, happy Tuesday – can you believe it’s the middle of July already?! Dang, time just doesn’t stand still for anybody! I’m delighted to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today. This extended z-fold (inspiration from Connie Stewart–see her blog for a tutorial) features papers and die cut pieces from our new Once Upon A Time: Rapunzel collection! If you are a princess fan and haven’t seen this collection yet, you are in for a real treat! And this fun fold really shows off these products!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Amethyst cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Rapunzel 12×12 Collection Pack and Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I embellished the front with Rapunzel Die Cut Pieces, popping some of them up on Back To Basics Adhesive Squares. I used Back To Basics Pastel Gingham Ribbon for the closure.

I used more of the Rapunzel Die Cut Pieces to embellish the inside panels. This was a surprisingly easy card that worked up pretty quickly. Be sure to check out Connie’s video – she’s such a hoot!

Make A Creative Mess

Hi friends – I hope you’re preparing for a nice long weekend if you’re in the States. We are officially half-way through the year and our nation’s 250th birthday is tomorrow! Woot-Woot… how cool is that?! I’m stoked to be back with another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today. I used a KIS Kits: 6×6 Blank Trifold Album – White to create this very cool mini album which features papers, die cuts and enamel dots from our Craft Mode collection! You know mini albums (along with fun folds) are my jam, and this one was a blast to make! If you’re a fellow mini album maniac, these kits are for you – and they come in white and black! ;)

The kit contains six trifold pages that you can glue together and decorate any way you want. I made mine with pockets and tags, pull-downs, pull-outs, and pull-ups, and added a scored spine. The sky is literally the limit with these! I used lots of items from the Craft Mode 12×12 Collection Pack, Die Cut Pieces, and Enamel Dots. Also used lots of our Ribbon Packs and foam squares (from our Back To Basics Adhesive Basics Foam Squares & Strips).

Here are shots of all the pages, open and closed. This was so stinkin’ fun and I had THE best time putting it together! It won’t be too long before I make one in black (I already have the papers lined up), so stay tuned!

Hi friends – Happy Wednesday! Today is a special day… it’s my baby boy’s 40th birthday! Not sure how that can even be possible since I’m only 29, lol! Bahahaha! I can’t believe how fast time is flying by… we’re on the down-slide into July already! I have a seriously cute Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share with you – an envelope tuck card featuring papers and die cut pieces from our new Sweet Spring collection. OMGoodness, everything in this collection is amazing, and I totally love the colors and prints!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Amaranth Pink and the envelope flap from Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock, along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Sweet Spring 6×9 Collection Pack. I used our Back To Basics Nested Stitched Squares Dies to cut panels from the Amaranth Pink and Classic Crest Solar white to layer for the focal image. I popped up the focal image on foam squares (from our Back To Basics Adhesive Basics Foam Adhesive Squares & Strips) to make it easy to slide the envelope flap underneath. I added die cuts from the Sweet Spring Die Cut Pieces which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panels from Solar White cardstock and a print in the Sweet Spring Spring collection, and embellished them with die cuts from the Sweet Spring Die Cut Pieces. Totally LOVE this fold – it’s an easy one that really shows off the patterned papers! As always, if you’d like the instructions, let me know.

Hey everybody, I hope your week is going along nicely and you have time to do something fun! I’m back this morning with a super cute Keep It Simple project tutorial that I created for the How-To’s section on the KIS website. This faux narrow panel step card features papers and die cut pieces from our new Bugs collection. OMGosh, if you haven’t seen this collection yet, you are in for a major treat! It is so stinkin’ cute I can’t even stand it!

I won’t go into a huge amount of detail here, so be sure to see my tutorial on the Keep It Simple website if you want more details on how I made this card. I cut the card base and faux narrow panel from 110# Solar White, along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the 6×9 Bugs Collection Pack. I used the third smallest die in the KIS Cuts Stitched Scallop Circles to cut the focal panel from Solar White and then the fourth largest die in the Back To Basics Stitched Circles Nested Dies to cut a layer from a patterned paper. I grabbed an assortment of die cuts from the Bugs Die Cut Pieces and a few Back To Basics Teal Enamel Dots to embellish the front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a patterned paper strip and a couple more die cuts.

Happy Wednesday, everybody – I hope you’re having a great week! I’m thrilled to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today! This adorable spanner card features papers and die cut pieces from our new Adventure & Beyond collection. This collection is ‘beyond’ adorable (pun intended, lol) and really fits this fun fold to a T! So much fun packed into one little card!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Patriot Blue cardstock along with layering panels from the Adventure & Beyond 6×9 Collection Pack and CutCardStock Glama Natural Translucent Clear Vellum along with an acetate strip from our Back To Basics Shaker Basics Foam Adhesive & Acetate Sheets. Then the fun began assembling and adding ephemera from the Adventure & Beyond Die Cut Pieces, popping some up on foam squares. I added a single Back To Basics Teal Enamel Dot to finish off the front.

I cut the inside panel from Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and added another couple die cuts from the Adventure & Beyond Die Cut Pieces, popping the star up on a foam square. Totally love how this turned out! Let me know if you’d like the instructions for this.
