ScrapbookingStore DT – Love To Scrap 2

Thinking of You

Hi friends, here’s wishing you all a wonderful Saturday! I hope you have something fun planned this weekend. The days sure do seem to be flying by at record speed… we’re almost to the middle of the year already! I’m sharing another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with items in the May 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I sure have enjoyed all the wonderful coordinating papers and stickers (and floral embellies in the upgrades) in this month’s kit! Pocket cards are one of the easiest kinds of fun folds to make and there are SO many versions out there. This one has triangular flaps and features paper, stickers and a jeweled floral embellishment from the upgrades.

Because of the nature of the folds on most pocket cards, I like to use double-sided papers. I chose a floral print with a multi colored stripe on the back to cut the pocket card base. I punched a thumb notch with a Stampin’ Up 1-3/4″ circle punch and added a sentiment cut from one of the papers in the collection which I embellished with a heart sticker and a jeweled floral embellishment from the upgrades.

I cut the pull-out card base from CutCardStock Strawberry Cream cardstock and adhered a panel of 80# Solar White to it. I embellished this pull-out card with sentiment stickers, scalloped borders (punched with the Stampin’ Up Scallop Border Punch), and Love From Lizi pinstripe peel-off stickers. I added another border strip across the bottom which I cut from one of the papers along with several iridescent gemstones.

Hi friends, I hope your week is ending nicely and you’re enjoying some nice Spring weather. I’m back with another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with items in the May 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I have to say there are papers and stickers and embellishments in the upgrades for just about any kind of card you would want to make. This little flower pot card is so stinkin’ cute and the jeweled floral embellishments from the upgrades were perfect for it! I also used a colorful plaid paper and sentiment stickers from the collection.

The card base (flower pot) is essentially a Z-fold. I cut the card base and pull-up card from CutCardStock Amaranth Pink cardstock along with a panel of plaid paper from the collection to decorate the pot. I used the Stampin’ Up Scallop Edge Punch to embellish the rim. I tied some green seam binding ribbon around the pot and added a sentiment sticker.

I adhered a panel of 80# Solar White to the pull-up card. Then I had fun layering quite a few jeweled floral embellishments in random fashion to fill up the top of the pull-up card, adding two circular pieces of acetate behind the flowers as a protective layer. I added another sentiment sticker to the pull-up card which completed the project.

You Me & Coffee

05/09/26 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Howdy peeps, happy Thursday! I’m back with another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with items in the May 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I am really digging the papers and stickers (and upgrades) in this kit and have been having the best time playing with it. This fun thank you card features paper, stickers and a jeweled floral embellishment from the upgrades. This is my own shirt card template that I created a while back that can be dressed up or down. This particular one is a casual version that I thought was really cute with the coffee cups!

I cut the card base and sleeve panels from CutCardStock Light Teal 12×12 cardstock along with layering panels from two prints in the collection. I used Keep It Simple Back To Basics Clear Enamel Dots for the buttons and added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet and a jeweled floral embellishment from the upgrades.

I typically put just a lightweight sentiment panel on the inside so the shirt front can bow just a bit to tuck the bottom edge up underneath the collar to close. However, the sentiment panel on this one is layered (several times) which made the card front pretty stiff and unable to bow. So I made a horizontal score line on the back underneath the collar so it would bend backwards and allow the card to close. I honestly think I like this version better and will probably use this method from now on!

love grows here

Hi friends – wishing you a wonderful day today! I have a pretty ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the May 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I love, love, love the papers and coordinating stickers in this month’s kit! Oh my goodness! The tri-fold hidden door fun fold is among my top ten favs and this card features papers and stickers from this month’s kit. So happy with how it turned out!

I cut the card base pieces from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in this month’s collection. I trimmed a journaling card to use for the focal image on the front flap, semi-notched the corners (with the Spellbinders 3-in-1 Notched Corner Punch), and added Love From Lizi Pinstripe Pink Holographic Peel-Off Stickers.

I used more patterned paper from the collection for the inside panels as well as 80# Solar White for the center one, and added a variety of stickers from the sticker sheet.

happy days

Hey everybody, I hope your week has started off on a nice note! I have a fun ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with items in the May 2026 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. The papers and sticker sheet in this month’s collection are among some of the best for creating a variety of cards. And what better way to congratulate someone on their new home than with a super cute peek-a-boo slider card?! It’s been nine (yes, NINE) years since I made one of these (post is HERE) and when I saw it on Lisa Curcio’s blog a couple weeks ago, I was instantly inspired to make it again. I’ve seen my handwritten instructions a hundred times over the years when looking through my tutorial folders so I honestly don’t know why it has taken so long to re-visit this one, lol!

I cut the front and back card base pieces from CutCardStock Mantis Green, and the center piece from CutCardStock Green Curry cardstock. I cut layering panels from coordinating Doodlebug Design prints in the collection and used 1-1/4″ and 1-1/2″ circle punches for the apertures. I used a Love From Lizi Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Die to cut the sentiments that are seen peeking through the apertures.

I cut the back panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a strip of paper used on the inside. I used the Keep It Simple Back To Basics Congratulations Sentiments stamp set to stamp the sentiment on the back panel in Catherine Pooler Garden Party and Lime Rickey inks using the rock-and-roll stamping technique. I then used the Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen to add some shimmer to the letters. I’ve included an overhead shot so you can see the construction of this fun card!

SPRING: A Whole Lot Of Happy

04/25/26 Top Rocker Honor at 613 Avenue Create!

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

05/15/26 Spotlight Winner at Sparkles Monthly Challenges!

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. :)
