Weekender Handbag

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a great weekend and it’s not too awfully cold where you are… it’s pretty darn chilly here but we don’t mind it! I’m excited to be back to share my last project using the ScrapbookingStore’s amazing November 2022 Scrapbook Kit… and now we wait for the December kit! I love the versatility and vintage feel of the papers in this collection. As you undoubtedly know, I’m a huge fan of paper purses and have a growing collection, so I created a fun Weekender Handbag which definitely has more of a vintage feel than seasonal. See what I mean about versatile papers?!

Using the Concord & 9th Weekender Handbag dies, I cut the handbag pieces from two coordinating patterned papers in the collection along with a scrap of CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock. I assembled the purse and added a small Inky Stamper Papercrafting Velcro closure.

Here’s a shot of the back. Paper purses can be used as is for collections like mine, or they can be used as gift bags to hold a gift card, cash, jewelry, or candy! The possibilities are endless!

Beautiful Fall

Hi everyone! Wowzers, the weekends sure do roll around quickly these days… and then roll away just as quickly, lol! I’m happy to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing November 2022 Scrapbook Kit! I’m loving all the Autumn- and Fall-themed prints and colors of the papers in this collection as well as the coordinating stickers. I know I’ve mentioned a hundred times that Fall is my favorite season because of the wonderful colors and smells, but mostly because of the cooler weather! I created a pretty Fall window scene with a kitty looking out!

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock along with a CutCardStock Curious Metallic Chestnut layering panel from which I die cut a window using the Cheery Lynn Designs Window B die. I adhered a journaling card featuring a beautiful fall tree beneath the aperture. I created a window sill and adhered an Impression Obsession Cat die cut from CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft paper. The final step was adding a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet.

I embellished the inside with a sentiment sticker and leaf stickers from the sticker sheet.

Thankful

Hi everyone! Happy Fri-YAY! I hope you’ve had a great week and you’re looking forward to a nice relaxing weekend! I’m delighted to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing November 2022 Scrapbook Kit! I absolutely LOVE all the Autumn/Fall-themed papers and coordinating stickers in this collection. I love seasonal cards and I’m particularly fond of Autumn/Fall and bold patterns, so this November kit is a ‘win-win’ in my book! And I have to say that this card is at the top of my list of all-time favs – it was so easy and turned out so pretty!

I cut an A2 size side-folding card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock along with layering panels from CutCardStock Pop Tone Hot Fudge cardstock and a gingham patterned paper in the collection. I punched scalloped edges on the brown cardstock, trimmed a journaling card from the collection and layered them together. I adhered an oval sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet onto a Cottage Cutz Double-Stitched Oval die cut. The finishing touch was adding Darice tiny iridescent gemstones to the scallops.

I embellished the inside with strips of the gingham patterned paper and Hot Fudge cardstock used on the front, and a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet to which I added a green Dot Sparkler.

Autumn Time mini slimline

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a great week! I’m excited to be back sharing another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today. My Halloween shares are complete and now I’m moving onto Autumn/Fall with the November 2022 Scrapbook Kit! I’m loving all the beautiful patterns in this collection – Fall is is my favorite time of year so I’m really enjoying myself! And you know I’m also a fan of slimline and mini slimline cards, so I created a mini slimline featuring paper and stickers from the November kit!

I cut a 3-1/2” x 6” mini slimline card base and a layering panel from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock along with a layering panel from a patterned paper in the collection. I added truck and gingham border stickers from the sticker sheet. The finishing touch was adding a few gemstones.

To complete the inside, I added another gingham border and a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet. This card couldn’t have been any easier! ;)

Book of Spells & Potions mini album

Hi everyone! It’s Hump Day and I hope you have a good one! I’m happy to be back today to share another DT inspiration project for ScrapbookingStore, created with the amazing October 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! Have I mentioned that I really like the coordinating papers and stickers in October’s kit?! Sure makes creating projects a breeze! Mini albums are at the top of my list of loves, and I made a super cute Halloween mini album. Each page has a tag tucked into a pocket so there is plenty of room for photos and journaling!

I created a 3” square mini album from a sheet of 12×12 American Crafts Black cardstock and adhered a 2-3/4” square panel cut from a variety of patterned papers from the collection to the front and to each page, with an additional piece cut for the spine. I added a ‘Book of Spells and Potions’ sticker to the front and a sentiment sticker to each page. Using the Stampin’ Up Scalloped Tag Topper Punch and American Crafts Dandelion and Key Lime, Neenah Crest Solar White, and CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Aquamarine cardstock, I created a tag for each page and tied twine to the top of each.

Stay Out! Graveyard slimline

Hi everyone! Here’s to a Terrific Tuesday to you all! I’m thrilled to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the amazing October 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! The Halloween-themed prints and colors of the papers in this collection, along with the coordinating stickers and upgrades, are amazing. You know I love slimline cards, and this size was perfect to create a spooky graveyard scene using items from the October collection!

I cut a 3-3/4” x 9” slimline card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from a patterned paper in the collection. I created a graveyard scene using CutCardStock Pop Tone Jellybean Green and Tangy Orange cardstock, the fence die from the Stampin’ Up Halloween Scenes Edgelits, stickers from the sticker sheet, and die cuts from the upgrades in the collection.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a strip cut from the patterned paper used on the front. I added die cuts and a trimmed sentiment from the upgrades, and layered the panel on CutCardStock Pop Tone Tangy Orange cardstock.

I’m just here for the treats!

Hi everyone! Happy Monday – the weekends sure do go by fast, don’t they?! I’m delighted to be back with another DT inspiration project to share for ScrapbookingStore, created with the amazing October 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! Loving all the Halloween and treat-themed papers, coordinating stickers and upgrades in this collection. Candy corn is one of my favorite Halloween candies and I wish it was available for other holidays throughout the year! I created a fun card featuring patterned paper and one of the journal cards from the upgrades in the October kit.

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar white cardstock along with layering panels from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock and a striped patterned paper from the collection. I trimmed a journal card from the upgrades and layered it on black cardstock as well. I added several pieces of candy corn and wrapped candies from the upgrades and popped some of them up on mini dimensionals, which completed the card front. Super easy!

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the striped pattern paper and black cardstock used on the front. I added a sentiment sticker and candy corn from the sticker sheet and layered the panel on black cardstock.

Beware! Halloween Tag

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday – I hope you’re having a great weekend! I’m delighted to be back (finally) to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you, created with the amazing October 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! This is the most awesome company to design for. Hurricane Ian caused delays in shipping of the October kit and then the November kit arrived while we were moving and my studio was torn apart, so needless to say, showcasing my projects using the October and November kits has been delayed. So let’s back-track to Halloween… I’m so loving all the coordinating papers in this kit and since I think tags are especially fun, I created a spooky Halloween tag using some of the fun papers and stickers in this kit.

I cut a tag shape from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with several coordinating papers from the collection, tearing some into strips.

I added stickers from the sticker sheet as well as a variety of elements from the upgrades. The finishing touch was tying Haunted Halloween ribbons from Really Reasonable Ribbon to the top of the tag with Doodlebug Design Lily White Doodle Twine.

You Did It!

Hi everyone! Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a fabulous week and you’re looking forward to doing something fun this weekend! I’m stoked to be back this morning to share my final ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with the amazing September 2022 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! Now the hard part will be waiting for the October kit to arrive, lol! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the bold colors and fun sentiments on the papers and tag elements and the upgrades in this month’s kit. You know how I love fun folds so I thought it would be fun to use layered tags on a split panel card.

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from heavyweight cardstock and created the split panel feature, leaving 1-1/2” sections at the top and bottom which I covered with a patterned paper from the kit. I trimmed two tags from the kit, added ribbon from the upgrades, and layered them on heavyweight cardstock. I adhered them to the card front connecting the two panels and added two star stickers from the sticker sheet. 

I cut the inside panel from a patterned paper in the kit and adhered a strip of white cardstock across the bottom for a signature panel. I added an additional tag element and sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet which completed the card.

Herringbone Mini Notebook

Hi everyone! I hope you’re having a totally terrific Tuesday! Say that fast three times, lol! I’m delighted to be back again this morning to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you that I created with the amazing September 2022 Scrapbook Kit! Even though this is a birthday-themed kit, I like that the papers and coordinating stickers in this month’s kit are versatile and can be used for other types of projects. I love making and giving practical gifts, so I created a fun 6×6 mini notebook with a herringbone background panel. This is only the second herringbone background I’ve made and they are fun! The first one from 2020 is HERE if you’re interested in looking.

I cut 6×6 front and back covers from heavyweight cardstock, and punched six holes across the top with my Zutter Bind-It-All. I created the herringbone pattern on a white cardstock panel using 1/2″ strips cut from a variety of papers in the collection, and adhered the panel to a pink cardstock panel and then to the front cover. I adhered die cut alphas and two flower stickers from the sticker sheet to complete the front panel.

I trimmed a stack of notebook paper to fit the inside of the notebook, punched holes across the top, and assembled the notebook with a white Zutter wire.
