ScrapbookingStore DT – Love To Scrap 2

SPRING: A Whole Lot Of Happy

Howdy peeps! I hope you’re having a great weekend and enjoying some beautiful weather! It has been a bit rainy here so I’ve enjoyed being inside creating Spring-themed cards! So that means I have another pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the April 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I’m totally loving this month’s kit! This card is a double Z gate fold that I saw on Connie Stewart’s blog, and it’s definitely a fun one!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Twine cardstock and layered a pretty floral print from this month’s collection on the front along with a slightly smaller layered piece in the center featuring square blocks (punched with the EK Success 1″ square punch) for the sentiment. I added chipboard letters from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Chipboard Alphabet in the upgrades along with floral stickers from the sticker sheet which I tucked under the corners of the blocks. The finishing touch on the front was adding a chipboard sentiment from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Chipboard Embellishments in the upgrades.

I kept the inside fairly simple, just adding a couple stickers from the sticker sheet and a die cut sentiment from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Diecut Cardstock Sentiments in the upgrades. I’ve included an additional overhead shot so you can see the fun construction of this card. Totally love it!

Hello Spring fun fold

Hey everybody, happy weekend! I hope you have something fun planned! I have another awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the April 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I’m calling this fun fold an anchored swing flap which is a variation of the regular swing flap fun fold that I’ve been making over the years. The papers and elements in this kit are absolutely amazing and I’m really enjoying making these Spring-themed cards!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Pop Tone Jellybean Green cardstock and then cut a rectangular aperture into the front flap using a Love From Lizi Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Die. I reserved the stitched rectangle die cut to use for the focal image. I then added a green glitter panel (cut from American Crafts POW Cricket Glitter paper) just prior to adhering the focal image which I trimmed from a journaling card in the kit. I added a chipboard sentiment from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Chipboard Embellishments in the upgrades along with a few gold pearls, which completed the card front.

I cut the swing flap panel on the inside from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips cut from prints in the collection and a sticker, along with another chipboard sentiment from the upgrades. I’ve included an additional image from overhead so you can see the U shape of the anchored swing flap which is the difference between the regular swing flap fun folds you’ve seen me make over the years.

Today is a great day to smile

Hi friends, I hope your week is clicking along at a nice rate and you’re enjoying some nice weather! It has been kind of rainy here but at least Spring does finally appear to have sprung, lol! I have a pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the April 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I am loving all the pretty papers and coordinating elements in the upgrades in this month’s kit. I recently saw this expanding panel card on Lisa Curcio’s blog which is actually another type of Z-fold, and I love it! Love it so much that I’ve made a couple of them!

I cut the two card base panels from Lessebo Coffee Bean cardstock and layered a pretty pink plaid paper from this month’s collection on the front panel. I added a decorative rectangle cut with a Pinkfresh Studio Rounded & Braided Rectangles die from Classic Linen 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a fussy-cut flower from one of the journaling cards in the kit.

I added a die cut sentiment from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Diecut Cardstock Sentiments in the upgrades which I popped up on Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Squares. The finishing touch on the front was adding clear iridescent gemstones around the rectangle die cut.

I cut the expanding panel on the inside from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips cut from prints in the collection, along with a chipboard piece from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Chipboard Embellishments and a couple die cuts from Rosie’s Studio Frolic Diecut Cardstock Sentiments in the upgrades. I’ve included an additional overhead shot so you can see the fun construction. It really IS just another type of Z-fold, lol! So easy!

Set of 4 Easter ATCs

Hey everybody, top of the day to you – we’re on the downslide to the weekend! I have a fun ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the April 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. There are lots of whimsical and playful prints accompanied by a page of matching stickers, so there is something in this kit for any kind of project you want to make! The kit is an adorable Easter-themed collection this month and since Easter has passed, I created one Easter project and three Spring-themed projects. So here is the first project – a set of four Easter-themed ATCs (two cards and two coins)!

It’s been a minute since I created any ATCs and these were so much fun even though I feel like I cheated somehow by only using paper and stickers, lol! I cut two cards at the standard ATC size of 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” from 165# Double-Thick Solar White and rounded the four corners. I then used my Fiskars 2-1/2” round punch for the two coins (also cut from the 165# Double-Thick Solar White). I selected an assortment of papers from the collection to adhere to the cards and coins, and then embellished each one with stickers from the sticker sheet. I stuck several of the stickers on white cardstock and either die cut or trimmed around them, and popped a few of them up on foam squares. I also used some washi tape from my stash.

Here are individual shots of each ATC. They are super simple and turned out so cute!

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.

Edit: One of my readers asked if this was a triple fold with the blocks added so I took an additional photo from overhead and am including it next to the photo already in the post.

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!

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.
