Merry Christmas Pocket Card

7/20/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody, Happy Saturday! Dang, the time is really flying by… it really will be Christmas again before we know it! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created for our Christmas in July showcase. This is something I look forward to every July, as Christmas is my favorite holiday! I created an accordion pocket card featuring the super adorable Bizzy Hands Reindeer in a Stocking stamp set. I initially saw this fun fold on Pinterest which led me to Laura’s Inkyfingers Papercrafting blog post HERE. I put my own spin on this and added a white stitched rectangle as a backing for my focal image.

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis White cardstock along with layering panels from the Ruby and Jade 12×12 Collection Packs. The focal image is from the Bizzy Hands Reindeer in a Stocking stamp set, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Basis White, colored with alcohol markers and fussy cut. I cut a backing for the focal image using the Stitched Rectangles Nested Dies and attached it to the angled portion of the front flap, popping the top portion of the focal image up on thin adhesive foam squares. I stamped a sentiment from the same Bizzy Hands stamp set and added several Back To Basics White Enamel Dots which completed the card front.

I left the inside plain and tucked a faux gift card into the pocket. This could also hold cash, tag or a sentiment card. So cute!

So Grateful gift tag

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday! I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! I’m stoked to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our NEW KIS Cuts Freshly Brewed that just debuted yesterday! Can you say SQUEAL?! This is a fun die set and there are so many possibilities to use it for! I created a gift tag to go with a coffee-themed gift of assorted coffees, a coffee grinder, coffee mugs, etc. How fun is that?!

Using the KIS Cuts Freshly Brewed dies, I cut the cup shaped tag and all the layers from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and coordinating papers in the Jade and Rose 12×12 Collection Packs. Of course I had to make a shaker using a variety of polymer clay, beads and crush from our new Sprinkles line! The sentiment on the cup sleeve is from the Thank You Sentiments stamp set, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black, and embellished with 3mm Pearls and die cut hearts. The tag loop was fashioned from a length of Rose Ribbon.

I cut the back panel and layers using dies in the KIS Cuts Freshly Brewed set which I embellished with a die cut heart and a stamped sentiment (also from the Thank You Sentiments stamp set). Love how this turned out!

You make me a happy camper

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! The weeks just keep whizzing by and it’s gonna be Christmas before know it! ;) I’m thrilled to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our new KIS Cuts Camper (released about a week ago) and our KIS Cuts Wavy Borders! I am IN LOVE with these die sets and see so many possibilities! I made the other version of the double dutch door fun fold (with full doors beneath rather than half doors). This card could be used for a spouse’s birthday, Valentine, anniversary or love you ‘just because.’ To compliment these die sets, I once again pulled out papers, stamps and dies from other collections to decorate the inside panels.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Twine 80# 12×12 cardstock. The fun part about this card is that it can be made any size – this one is 6″ square. I also cut a layering panel for the background from a cloud print in the Lumberjack 12×12 Collection Pack. I cut a variety of hills from coordinating prints in the Jade 12×12 Collection Pack using the Wavy Borders die set.

I cut the camper layers and pieces using papers from the Stars & Stripes 6×9 and 12×12 Collection Packs, Papertrey Ink Americana cardstock, CutCardStock Dolphin Gray and Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock, a Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock scrap, and Lumberjack 6×9 Collection Pack. I stamped a sentiment from the Lumberjack Camping Collection Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I cut panels for the inside doors from a plaid pattern in the Lumberjack 12×12 Collection Pack and added a stamped and die cut trail/camping sign (using the Lumberjack Camping Collection Stamps and Outline Dies). I cut the inside panels from a paper in the Stars & Stripes 12×12 Collection Pack, Papertrey Ink Americana cardstock and Solar White cardstock. The final touch was adding a stamped and die cut banner (using the Sent With Love Collection Stamps and Outline Dies).

6/29/24 Weekly Favorite (favorited by two crafters) at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hi friends! Dang, another week has blown by and it’s Friday again! The last Friday of June! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our NEW KIS Cuts Camper released today. For my debut project using this awesome die set, I used papers and enamel dots from the also new Stars & Stripes Collection. How stinkin’ cute is this?! This camper really tugged at my heart strings because Ed and I were full-time RV’ers for nearly five years when we moved out here to Colorado in our 40-foot fifth wheel. He became disabled and we decided not to travel anymore. But we sure had some fun times and met some amazing people! I LOVE shaped cards and this one is just in time for July 4th which is right around the corner!

I cut the camper shaped card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with all the camper layers and pieces from coordinating papers in the Stars & Stripes 6×9 Collection Pack and CutCardStock Bright Silver Foil and Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock. The assembly was the most fun – it’s always delightful watching these kinds of projects come to life! I used stars and striped papers for the camper body which I think turned out cute, and used a red star from the Stars & Stripes Enamel Dots to embellish the tire. I stamped the sentiment from the Stars & Stripes 4×8 Collection Stamp in Catherine Pooler Juniper Mist ink on a scrap piece of 110# Solar White and popped it up on a shaker strip for dimension.

I covered the inside with an additional patterned paper from the 6×9 Collection Pack and added an oval which I cut from 80# Solar White using a Back To Basics Stitched Ovals Nested Die. I stamped another sentiment from the same Stars & Stripes stamp set in blue ink which completed the project.

Have a Ball mason jar mini album

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope you’re having a great week so far! I’m delighted to to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today. I do believe I used a record number of KIS products making this mason jar mini album, and it sure was fun! Of course, I used the entire Mason Jar suite of products along with papers from four paper packs, five kinds of stitched dies, die cuts from two collections and five colors of ribbon. And we can’t forget the six varieties of Sprinkles I used for the shaker bits! I’ve only used tulle for a few shakers and I love the fact that it photographs without all the glare that acetate shakers have. And I think I’ve asked this before – is there such a thing as too much shaker mix?!

Using several dies in the KIS Cuts Mason Jar set, I cut the front and back covers along with the inside pages from CutCardStock Twine cardstock, and the lid from CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil cardstock. I created the shaker on the front using ivory tulle behind the aperture with 2mm Matte White beads, 2mm Matte Pale Pink beads, 2mm Matte Green beads, 3mm Pearls, Polymer Clay Forest Green Sprinkles and Polymer Clay White Daisies & Pink Hearts for the shaker mix.

I used the Mason Jar Labels stamps along with the Mason Jar Sentiments (stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and Catherine Pooler It’s A Girl ink) for the label on the front and cut it with a coordinating Mason Jar Labels die. I also added a small heart cut from a green scrap using a die in the set of Mason Jar Labels dies. The assortment of papers used for the front and inside pages came from the Bunny Season, Lucky Day, Little Cowgirl Birthday, and Lumberjack 6×9 Collection Packs. I added a couple pull-outs and some flat die cuts created with the Back To Basics Stitched Squares, Ovals, Rectangles and Circles Nested Dies as well as one of the hearts from the KIS Slimline Cuts Stitched Hearts.

I added some flowers from the Little Cowgirl Birthday Die Cut Pieces as well as bees and greenery from the Lumberjack Die Cut Pieces to embellish the stitched die cuts. I punched holes in the cover and pages with the We R Memory Keepers Crop-A-Dile II Big Bite and made hole reinforcements with the Big Bite and the Stampin’ Up 1/2″ Circle Punch from the Twine cardstock. I bound the mini album with silver binding rings and tied small pieces of Back To Basics Lemon, Lilac, Royal, Jade and Rose ribbon to the rings.

I {heart} USA

Hey everybody, Happy Tuesday! I have THE coolest Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today created with the NEW Stars & Stripes Collection that just launched a few days ago. OMGosh, I love anything Americana and this collection is amazing – we have papers, stamps, dies, die cut pieces, ribbon, and enamel stars! I created a fun gift set of a Chandler purse with 4 notelets and envelopes. I’ve made several of these purses (which make great gift bags, too, by the way) using THIS tutorial from Bearly Arts but I always put my own twist on it. I wanted to mention that the entire Stars & Stripes bundle is a whopping 20% off but unfortunately this is one of the few instances that our 10% code cannot be used.

I created the Chandler purse from CutCardStock Basis 80# White and cut layering panels from coordinating papers in the Stars & Stripes 12×12 Collection Pack. I embellished the purse with die cuts from the Stars & Stripes Die Cut Pieces and several Stars & Stripes Enamel Stars, as well as a couple old navy blue brads from my stash. I used a disc magnet as the closure which is hidden behind the floral die cut popped up on thick double-sided foam circles.

I cut four notelets from Basis White and rounded the corners. I embellished them with papers from the Stars & Stripes 6×9 Collection Pack, die cuts from the Stars & Stripes Die Cut Pieces, and Stars & Stripes Enamel Stars. I used my We R Memory Keepers Pocket Punch Board to create the envelopes from HP Premium 32 copy paper for the notelets. Oh, so fun!

And for good measure, here’s a shot of the back. I just love how this turned out!

Lady Portia’s Dress

Hey everybody! It’s turning out to be a busy morning on my blog but I just had to share a special event going on in the Facebook Keep It Simple Inspiration Group! If you’re not already a member, pop over and join – there’s always something fun going on! Our lovely DT leader, Maureen, is an avid Bridgerton fan and came up with the idea of our design team recreating some of the debutante dresses for the Season 3 countdown and a “Who Wore It Better” event! How fun is that?! And there’s a challenge for our KIS fans to create a Bridgerton inspired project to get in on the chance to win the Keep It Simple Party Dress die set! The challenge ends on June 30th so get crackin’ if you want to play along!

I had never heard of this show but the idea sounded like loads of fun, so I chose to recreate Lady Portia’s dress. I hand-cut her dress instead of using the Party Dress die set because it was more of a fitted style. I used our Ruby, Jade, Rose and Mango Collection Packs for the papers, along with our Simply Spring Outline Dies for the flowers with Lemon Enamel Dots for the flower centers. This was fun, and although not an exact replica, it’s pretty darn close! ;)

6/15/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody! Well, another week has whizzed by and the weekend is almost here! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today created with the Bizzy Hands Creations Love To Sew stamp set. Our DT leader says today is National Sewing Machine Day so what better reason is there to create a disappearing nine patch card featuring a super adorable sewing machine to celebrate this fun day? Green and purple is one of my all-time favorite color combos so this card is a win-win for me!

A square card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar white cardstock along with layering panels from light and dark green prints in the Back To Basics Jade 12×12 Collection Pack. I created the patchwork panel by cutting nine squares using a Back To Basics Stitched Squares Nested Die. I adhered three rows of three squares to a piece of lightweight copy paper, trimmed the edges of the copy paper, and then cut it quarters. I ran the four smaller squares through my Big Shot with another stitched die from the same set. I rotated the quarters until I was happy with the overall pattern and then adhered it to the darker green layering panel.

Any size squares can be cut (with or without a die) depending on how big or small you want your panel. The best size squares in my opinion are around 1-1/2″ so you end up with a 4-1/2″ or so square panel. I paper pieced the sewing machine onto the panel using two prints in the Back To Basics Lilac 12×12 Collection Pack, coloring some of the elements with Sharpie ultra fine point markers. The flowers and hearts were also paper pieced. I stamped the sentiment on a 80# Solar White cardstock scrap and fussy cut it which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock using a Back To Basics Stitched Squares Nested Die and layered it on the dark print from the Jade collection pack leaving a slightly larger border around the square. I finished the inside with a another sentiment from the stamp set stamped in black ink.

You’re my Cup of Tea

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday – I hope you had a great week and you’re looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend! I’m stoked to be back with another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today created with papers, stamps and dies from the new Belle Collection. This collection is darling and I thought another pop-up window card was warranted to show off this little gal. I really love this fold – it’s so easy and really packs a punch! This is actually the second one of these I’ve made and I can’t remember where I originally saw it. Just cut an aperture (of any shape) into the front flap and save the die cut shape to use for the focal image. Add a pop up mechanism (simple tubular box) to the top back of the focal image so it stands up when the card is opened.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Misty Blue along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Belle 12×12 Collection Pack and CutCardStock Cougar Smooth 80# White cardstock. I cut the oval aperture into the front flap using a Back To Basics Stitched Ovals Nested Die and also cut an oval from Cougar Smooth 100# White cardstock.

I stamped the princess, the tea pot and the tea cup from the Belle Collection Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Cougar White, colored them with alcohol markers, and cut them with the coordinating dies. I stamped the front sentiment from the same stamp set in Catherine Pooler Cove Blue ink and cut it with the coordinating die. The finishing touches were adding a couple Back To Basics Lemon Enamel Hearts and stamping an additional sentiment (from the Back To Basics Thank You Sentiments stamp set) inside in the blue ink.

Hey everybody, Happy Wednesday! I hope your week is going well! I’m delighted to share one more Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with the adorable Lucky Day Collection. This was an extra project I made (sometimes I can’t help myself) and even though St. Patty’s Day is long past, I wanted to show it off. Collage style cards are so fun to make, layer after layer, and I love how this one turned out!

The landscape side-folding A2 size card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a frame and layering panel from coordinating papers in the Lucky Day 6×9 Collection Pack. I used the Stitched Rectangles Nested Dies to make the frame and popped it up on double-sided foam strips. Then the fun began… I chose a bunch of die cuts from the Lucky Phrases and Lucky Day Die Cut Pieces and began layering them, gluing some flat and adding foam squares behind some. When I was finished, I added several Jade Enamel Dots which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with another coordinating print from the 6×9 Collection Pack and more die cuts and phrases.
