V-Cut Sympathy Card

Hi everyone! Happy Monday – the weekend sure went by fast, didn’t it?! I have one more ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the amazing May 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. The black and white floral print in this month’s kit really caught my eye and I knew I wanted to use it without any other patterned papers. I created a pretty sympathy card with a little pop of color from one of the washi tape patterns in the upgrades, and I really like how this turned out.

A standard A2 top-folding card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis Soft Pink cardstock. The V-cut panels were cut from the black and white floral paper in this month’s kit which I embellished with the black and multi-color patterned washi tape in the upgrades and some narrow cardstock strips cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I stamped a sentiment from the Trinity Stamps A Sentiment For (Almost) Everything stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the right side of the V prior to adhering the top panel which I popped up on foam squares.

I embellished the inside panel with a leftover strip of the floral print used on the front and stamped a sentiment in black ink from the Scrapbook.com Friendly Bouquets stamp set.

Good Vibes angled center step card

Hey everybody! Happy Weekend – I hope you’re having a good one! I’ve popped in this morning with another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with the awesome May 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. You know how I love me some fun folds and I’ve created my first-ever angled center step card. A lady in one of my stamping forums shared a tutorial but I couldn’t get her measurements to work for me, so I re-worked them and came up with my own tutorial which I will post in the Freebies section of my blog soon if you’re interested in trying this fold, so check back in a few days.

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis 80# Natural cardstock. Layering panels were cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Dark Amazon Teal cardstock along with two coordinating prints in this month’s kit. I added two large chipboard stickers from the upgrades along with die cut sun and clouds (using Lawn Fawn Center Picture Window Card Dies) to create the mini scene. I added two adhesive gemstones from the upgrades which completed the card front.

I embellished the back panel with a strip of patterned paper used on the front and an additional chipboard sticker for the sentiment.

Hey everybody! I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! Our weather is glorious here in southwestern Colorado and I hope to be outside at least a little bit to enjoy it! I have another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the super pretty May 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. Everybody seems to love the pop-out Z-fold cards I’ve made lately, so I decided to create another one featuring several of the gorgeous prints in this month’s kit.

The card base and diamond shaped layers were cut from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock. Layering panels were cut from CutCardStock Basis Soft Pink cardstock and 12×12 Cardstock Shop Brown Thai Banana Handmade Paper along with several coordinating papers in this month’s kit. The front sentiment was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink using the STAMPlorations Layered Citrus stamp set. I added one adhesive gem from the upgrades which finished the card front.

The inside sentiment was stamped in black ink using the Concord & 9th Painted Tulips stamp set.

Camera Mini Album

Hi everyone! Happy Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a great week and you’re looking forward to a weekend full of awesomeness! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the absolutley lovely May 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. The paper pad in this month’s collection is divine, as are the upgrades, and I had such fun! I’ve had my Cricut out again and created an adorable camera mini album using a cut file in my arsenal. The fun thing about this particular mini album is the hidden binding. I have several more cut files for hidden binding mini albums, so stay tuned! I don’t know when I’ll get to making the rest of them but I sure plan on it!

I cut the album cover and inside pages from CutCardStock Desert Storm cardstock and all the album elements in the cut file from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice, Sweet Tooth, Jellybean Green and Lemon Drop. I then cut layering panels from a variety of pretty papers in this month’s kit and embellished the pages with chipboard stickers, adhesive gems and washi tape from the upgrades. I made pockets for several of the pages with my WRMK Pocket Punch Board along with pull-out inserts, leaving plenty of room for photos and journaling.

Here are shots of the entire album. This was definitely a fun one!

Happy Easter Handbag

Howdy peeps! I hope you’re having a great week! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you this morning created with the awesome April 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. You know how I love me some paper purses, and I just couldn’t resist making one with these gorgeous double-sided papers! I dug into my SVG cut file arsenal and once again used Luxury Handbags from SVG Cuts. There are several purses in this file and I chose the boho style handbag this time. I aim to make all of them at some point! ;)

Using my Cricut Exlore Air 2 and the SVG Cuts Luxury Handbags cut file, I cut the purse, pocket, strap, and little tag embellishments for the boho syle handbag from a pretty floral and gingham double-sided paper in the kit. I used some ancient flock-covered brads in my stash (pretty sure I’ve had them since 2006, lol) to secure each side of the strap. I made a tassel with my We R Memory Keepers The Works All In One Tool and some white yarn in my stash which I attached to the strap with the tags utilizing a small ball chain.

I added a Pink Paislee 5th & Monaco Flower Embellishment (left over from last month’s kit) to the front pocket and a sentiment sticker which I layered onto paper in the kit, trimmed, and adhered over the pocket. I included an angled back shot of the handbag. So stinkin’ cute!

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday – I hope your week has started off on a happy note! I have an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today, created with the awesome April 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This month’s kit has Easter vibes and all the Spring feels to it, and I totally love it! The twisted card was showcased in an old Splitcoast Stampers newsletter and the tutorial is HERE. So glad I finally got around to making one… not only is the shape super fun, but the design is awesome! What a great way to give a gift card or cash or any occasion!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft Paper along with layering panels from CutCardStock Aubergine cardstock and assorted patterned papers in the kit. I created a little scene using stickers from the sticker sheet.

I embellished the inside panels with additional papers and stickers from the kit. This card was really easy and worked up fast – it would be a great one to mass produce for gift card or cash giving!

Bunny Kisses fun fold

Hi friends! Wow, the weekend sure flew by, didn’t it?! I’m back with my second post this morning to share an amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with the awesome April 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. This tented easel card features papers and stickers from the kit along with a chipboard accent from the upgrades. I love how it turned out, and of course it helps to have pretty papers with matching elements! This is a super easy fold – cardstock size is 4-1/4″ x 11″, scored at 4-1/4″ and 8-1/2″, making the folded card 4-1/4″ square. Front layering panel is 4″ x 4″ and bottom layering panel is 2-1/4″ x 4″ with a white layering panel for the inside cut at 4″ x 4″. It’s small but it’s mighty! ;)

I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice and an assortment of papers in this month’s kit. The focal image/sentiment was cut with a Spellbinders Classic Oval Die, layered on a scalloped oval cut with a Classic Scalloped Oval Die, and popped up on 1″ double-sided foam strips. I added a tiny bow fashioned from Keep It Simple Back To Basics Mango Ribbon with a small wooden bowmaker that my awesome friend, Maureen, gifted me this past Christmas. I created the easel ‘stop’ using a sticker from the sticker sheet adhered to a cardstock scrap, trimmed, and popped up on thick foam squares. the finishing touch was adding a chipboard banner and tulip from the upgrades.

I embellished the inside panel with a strip cut from an additional patterned paper in the kit, a narrow black cardstock strip, and a square-cut journaling card from the collection. I included an additional angled shot so you can better see the construction. Love!

Hey everybody! Happy Hump Day! We’re still waiting for some semblence of Spring here in southwestern Colorado… how about you?! I think we can safely say that ol’ Punxsutawney Phil was a little confused, lol! I have another awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the March 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! This side accordion panel card is a great fun fold that really packs a punch. My inspiration for this one came from Pinterest, and I’ve watched videos on Lisa Curcio’s blog and Sharon Armstrong’s blog.

Here are the mini instructions: Cut the 5-1/2″ x 11″ card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Bubble Gum Pink cardstock, score at 1-3/4″, 3-1/2″, 5-1/4″ and 7″, and fold on all the score lines. Cut a smaller folded piece from Bubble Gum Pink at 3″ x 6″ and score at 3″. From coordinating prints in the Carta Bella Flora No. 6 Collection Kit, cut three 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ panels for the left side, a 3-3/4″ x 5-1/4″ panel for the right side, and two 2-3/4″ square panels for the smaller folded piece. Cut one additional 2-3/4″ square panel for a sentiment. Embellish as desired.

I embellished the front with elements from the Paige Evans Garden Shoppe Embellishments in the upgrades and a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet which I popped up on dimensional foam squares. The inside sentiment is a trimmed journaling card from the collection.

Here’s a shot of the card folded flat for mailing. I totally love how this one turned out!

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope you are having a great week! I’m delighted to be back today with another amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with the March Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m totally smitten with all the patterned papers, stickers and floral-themed upgrades in this month’s kit AND I have quite a few purse SVG cut files in my arsenal, so it didn’t take me long to decide what one of my projects was going to be, lol! This is the first time I’ve used this particular cut file and I love how it turned out. This fun shaped card was easy to assemble, and I definitely see a few more of these in my future. ;)

Using my Cricut Explore Air 2 and the SVG Cuts Luxury Handbags SVG cut file (specifically the Purse Card file), I cut the card base and front flap layer from two coordinating papers in the Carta Bella Flora No. 6 Collection Kit. I cut the handles, front flap and envelope from American Crafts Blush cardstock. I assembled the card and added a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet as well as a flower from the Pink Paislee 5th & Monaco Embellishments in the upgrades.

The inside panel was cut from CutCardStock Cougar Smooth 80# White cardstock which I embellished with sentiment and floral stickers from the sticker sheet. I cut the envelope from the Blush cardstock.

Hi friends! Happy Monday to everybody! I have another amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the gorgeous March 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m totally in love with all the florals in this month’s kit and have created a motivational side pop-up card using a set of Hot Off The Press dies in my stash. It never hurts to have a few cards handy to give to someone who needs a little lift, and florals are always the ticket!

Using the Hot Off The Press Side Pop-Up Card Dies, I cut the card base from CutCardStock Lessebo Dawn Maroon cardstock along with layering panels from a floral print in the Carta Bella Flora No. 6 Collection Kit. I cut a coordinating journaling card from the kit using a Keep It Simple Stitched Rectangles Nested Die to use as the focal image. I adhered an assortment of floral stickers from the sticker sheet to Solar White cardstock scraps, fussy cut them and adhered them to the tiers on the card base. The finishing touch was adding iridescent gemstones for a little bit of bling.

I added a Solar White panel to the back which I embellished with a leftover strip of the floral paper used on the front and a sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet. This was an easy one!
