All You Need Is Love & Chocolate

Hey everybody, it’s Friday the 13th – are you superstitious?! Naw, I’m not either. Just another day… hopefully a fun day crafting! I have one more ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the February 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This mini bendi card is another favorite of mine that’s an easy one to make. There are some really fun and playful prints in this month’s kit that made this card so fun to put together!

I cut the card base and bendi layers from CutCardStock Lessebo Dawn Maroon cardstock along with layering panels from an assortment of prints in this month’s kit. I trimmed down a journaling card in the collection to use for the focal panel. I fussy cut the boxes of chocolate (which were at the bottom of the journaling card) and glued them to the bottom panel to carry the focal image downward. I hand-cut thin strips of white cardstock to break up the black and white heart print, which also gave a whimsical feel to the card. To finish off the front, I adhered a few Keep It Simple Sprinkles Pearl Hearts Sequins to the focal panel.

I cut the back panels from 80# Solar White and embellished them with paper strips and a few stickers from the sticker sheet. I’ve included an overhead view of this card so you can see the fun construction. It does fold flat for mailing. :)

Howdy peeps, happy Thursday! We’re headed right on into another weekend… and they sure are flying by! I have another pretty ScrapbookingStore inspiration project to share with you today that I created with items in the February 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. It has been a minute since I made a pop-up block card and knew that the papers, stickers, and upgrades in this month’s kit would be perfect for this design.

I cut the card base and pop-up blocks from CutCardStock Lessebo Moss Green cardstock along with layering panels from an assortment of papers in the kit. I used several stickers from the sticker sheet as well as several pieces of ephemera from the upgrades. The circle stickers that spell ‘LOVE’ were just a tad too big for the pop-up blocks so I decreased the size by punching them with a Stampin’ Up 1″ circle punch. Voila… perfect fit!

I cut the sentiment panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White and embellished it with a paper strip, a sentiment sticker and a piece of ephemera.

Hi friends! Hope you’re having a great week so far and it’s not too chilly where you are. It’s pretty dang chilly here (still) and as much as we love cooler weather, we’ve had enough. Bring on the Spring! Bahahaha! I have another pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the February 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I’m loving all the florals and Valentine color mixes in this month’s kit! I made a simple pillar card which has quickly risen to the top of my list of favorites, as it’s so versatile and easy to make.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Cougar 100# Smooth White cardstock along with layering panels from papers in the kit and Cougar 80# Smooth White for the sentiment panel. I chose a piece of ephemera and a couple stickers from the sticker sheet to embellish it. I used a Love From Lizi Pinstripe Gold Peel-Off Sticker on the sentiment panel to tie in the little gold dots on the envelope.

Here’s an angled shot so you can see the simple construction. I’ve made quite a few of these with a square pillar but I think I like the rectangular one just a tad better. Like most of the fun folds I make, it folds flat for mailing and I love that!

Loving you always everyday

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.

Warm Winter Wishes

Hi friends, happy happy weekend! I hope you’re having a fun one! I have had THE best time creating Winter-themed projects… ’tis the season to be freezin’, right?! I have one more ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the January 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. Now, we wait patiently for the February kit, lol! I’m sure I’ve mentioned that the triple z-fold is one of my absolute favorite fun folds and I’ve made lots of them over the past few years. I used elements from everything in this month’s collection to make this one, and I love how it turned out!

I cut the card base pieces and strips from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Collection Kit. I used a Love From Lizi Stitched Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Die to create the background for the focal panel. I added a Little Birdie Scroll Border Frame from the upgrades and then tucked a trimmed journaling card inside the frame. I finished off the front with (yep, you guessed it…) two stars from the Rosie’s Studio Glitter Foam Stickers from the upgrades.

I cut the back panel from Solar White cardstock and layered it on a green print from the collection. I added a tag from the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Frames & Tags from the upgrades along with a die cut bow (cut with a Scrapbook.com Bow Toppers Shape Die). This fun fold design is one that never disappoints!

hello Winter

Hey everybody, happy Saturday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! I have another gorgeous ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the January 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This is another version of the tri-fold which is made in a vertical orientation versus the usual one we see in a horizontal orientation. And the cool thing about this one is the bottom flap can be adhered on both sides and a gift card (or mini card) tucked in. I’ve made several of these over the past few months and I always love how they turn out! And, of course, it always helps to have gorgeous papers and elements to bring them to life!

I cut the flat card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and covered it with a patterned paper panel cut from a print in the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Collection Kit. I cut the tri-fold portion of the card from 80# Solar White along with layering panels cut from CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil and a pretty floral print in the collection. I added a ‘hello’ sentiment taken from the Rosie’s Studio Glitter Foam Stickers (in the upgrades) and included the trimmed and layered ‘winter’ word from a journaling card in the collection. I finished off the front with several dots of Neptune Nuvo Crystal Drops.

I layered another print from the collection and another panel of the gold foil cardstock on the smaller flap at the bottom. That’s the one I mentioned above that could be adhered on both sides with a gift card or mini card tucked inside. I cut the sentiment panel from 80# Solar White and layered it on CutCardStock Basis Dark Orange. I added an embellishing strip and a sentiment from the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Frames & Tags in the upgrades.

Snow Days Are The Best Days

Hey everybody, I hope your week is going along at a nice pace. Can’t believe it’s Friday already! I have another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the January 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This hidden gate fold is really a fun one to make that packs a punch. I made one back in September for another design team and felt like it was time to make another one to show off the pretty papers and other elements in this month’s collection!

I cut the card base and top-folding smaller card from CutCardStock Lessebo Moss Green cardstock along with layering panels from a couple coordinating prints in the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Collection Kit. I added a trimmed journaling card from the collection as well as a piece of ephemera from the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Frames & Tags (in the upgrades) which I popped up on foam squares. And of course I just had to add a couple stars from the Rosie’s Studio Glitter Foam Stickers (also from the upgrades). They are so pretty! ;)

I cut the inside panel of the smaller card from 80# Solar White, embellished it with a leftover strip of the green floral paper used, and added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet. This is such an easy card that works up in about 30 minutes!

Let It Snow

Howdy peeps, happy Thursday! I hope you’re having a great week! I have a pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the January 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This layered diamonds pop-up card is off the chain! My inspiration came from Connie Stewart and although it’s the second one I’ve made, it’s the first one to be showcased on my blog. You’ll see the other one in a few days, so stay tuned! It sure packs a punch with pretty papers and embellishments!

I cut the card base and diamond bases from CutCardStock Lessebo Navy Blue cardstock along with layering panels from two prints in the Carta Bella Winter Wonderland Collection Kit and the focal diamond from Neenah Classic Crest Recycled Natural White cardstock. I added image and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet in the collection kit, along with a couple stars from the Rosie’s Studio Glitter Foam Stickers in the upgrades.

I cut the back panel from the Recycled Natural White cardstock, embellished it with a leftover scrap of the floral paper used on the front, and added an additional sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet.

Happy Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates! I hope you’re looking forward to a beautiful day filled with love, family and/or friends, and good food! I have one more ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I’m sure you’ve noticed that I’m hooked on the quilt block card, lol, and have made another one. I used papers and stickers from the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit along with elements from the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers and Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera (both from the upgrades).

I cut the 5-1/2″ square card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with two stitched square die cuts which I cut from CutCardStock Basis Red and Bright Gold Foil cardstock using Love From Lizi Stitched Square Nested Cutting Dies. I cut eight smaller stitched squares (using the same die set) from assorted prints in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit and eight more from CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft. I cut several of them in half diagonally and then glued them down in a quilt block pattern on a piece of copy paper.

I fashioned the sentiment from elements in the Rosie’s Studio Oh Joyful Day Puffy Stickers and Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera (both from the upgrades), and added a snowflake puffy sticker to the center. I tied a small bow from Lawn Fawn white hemp twine, colored it with a G28 Copic Ciao alcohol marker, and added it to the center.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with leftover strips of one of the prints used on the front and the Basis Red cardstock. I added floral and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet and layered the panel on red cardstock, which completed the card.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

Hi friends – can you believe it’s Christmas Eve already?! OMGoodness, time is flying by! I have another pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the December 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I finally got around to making another starburst panel using papers and stickers in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit along with Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera from the upgrades. It’s actually been a little over five years since I created a panel like this (post HERE if you want to see it). The next time I make one of these I’m going to put the points on the strips more toward the center (for a true starburst look) rather than off to one side.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Moss cardstock along with 16 strips from assorted prints in the Simple Stories All Wrapped Up Collection Kit which I then cut in half diagonally. This is a super simple process of placing the first strip down on a lightweight panel of cardstock (or you can use copy paper), then placing each subsequent one down in a starburst formation leaving just a tiny bit of space between the previous one.

For the focal, I grabbed a sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera and layered it on a stitched circle cut from CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil because I thought it needed just a touch of bling. I then cut a slightly larger circle from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock which gave the focal a little more balance. I used the Love From Lizi Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Dies for the circles, and popped the focal up on Scrapbook Adhesive Thin 3D Foam Squares for a little dimension.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a patterned paper strip from the collection and a sentiment from the Carta Bella Christmas Flora Ephemera. I layered it on a panel of CutCardStock Pop Tone Red Hot cardstock which completed the card.
