  Hello, it’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts today! And, I am sharing my final project share for Scrapping for Less. {sigh} I’m so going to miss Scrapping for Less and their awesome papers and stamps, but I’m so happy for Teresa and her next stage of life!
  
  At one point Teresa had asked those of us on the design team what our favorite paper collection was. And, that was a really hard question to answer because I’ve had so many favorites! I think I was finally able to narrow it down to 3! Do you have a favorite collection or stamp set from Scrapping for Less?
  
  Today I decided to revisit the October Flavor of the Month Card kit. I hadn’t had a chance to play with the Merry Express Delivery stamp set much so I wanted to have some fun with that one. I also used the custom tag die set, the white tags from the kit and some scraps from the kit. You can watch my full process video HERE.
  
  For my first tag, I actually made a set of 8 tags using the Reindeer Express stamp and the largest tag die. I also made a set of 8 tags with the North Pole Midnight Express stamp and the 2nd largest tag die. I stamped both of these tags on some white cardstock and finished them off with some red and white twine.
  
  I also made 2 tags using the white tags from the kit and some patterned paper scraps. I trimmed my scraps down to the size of the tags and glued the patterned paper to the tags. I used 2 other sentiments from the stamp set – Merry & Bright and Warm Wishes – to decorate the fronts of these tags. I also used the To and From stamps on the backs of the tags. I finished off the tags with some sequins and Chalk Stick Nuvo drops.
  
  Thanks for stopping by today! I always love making tags with scraps and had fun with these tags today. I am so blessed to have had this opportunity to work with Scrapping for Less this year and thank you all for supporting us! I have hoarded my card kits over the years, so I will still get to enjoy Scrapping for Less as I work on using up those kits.
  
  Have a crafty day!

- Always My Friend Easel Card – November FOTM Inspiration
  
  Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Nov 22nd
  Hi, friends! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today and I’m still playing with the November Flavor of the Month card kit, Simply Sentimental.
  
  I chose to make an easel card today, using the Wildflowers collection. This paper and ephemera are just gorgeous! You can see my full process video HERE to see how I assembled the card.
  
  I started with a piece of Kraft cardstock that measured 4 1/4 by 11 inches. I scored it at 2 3/4 and 5 1/2 inches and folded. I also cut a piece of Kraft cardstock at 4 1/4 by 5 1/2. This extra piece will act as the front panel of the card.
  
  For the front of the card I trimmed the white pattern down to 4 1/8 by 5 3/8 inches, the peach pattern to 2 by 5 3/8 inches and then that butterfly piece was just a scrap that was about 1 1/2 by 3 inches. I pulled in that gorgeous piece of floral ephemera along with the Always My Friend ephemera sentiment.
  
  For the bottom layer (or inside) of the card, I added piece of that pretty floral pattern that was 4 1/8 by 5 3/8 inches. To act as a holder for the easel, I added a piece of the striped pattern that was 2 by 3 3/4 inches and backed it with a piece of Kraft cardstock. I added a small strip of the peach pattern that I had left and the little butterfly ephemera. I popped this panel up on foam squares.
  
  To finish off the inside, I added some white paper to the top part of the card to allow me some clean writing space.
  
  Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed today’s project and got even more inspiration for using this wonderful kit!

- November Flavor of the Month Sneak Peek Thank You Card
  
  Posted at 8:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Nov 15th
  Hello, friends! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today and I get to share with you another sneak peek of the new November 2020 Flavor of the Month card kit, Simply Sentimental! You can watch my full process video HERE.
  
  I used collection #1, Thank You So Much, for my card today. I used the Carbon Copy gray cardstock from the kit as my A2 cardbase. I cut the peach polka dot pattern down as my card mat at 4 x 5 1/4 inches. I pulled out one of the floral patterns to layer on top of the polka dots and cut that panel down to 2 3/4 by 4 inches. I used the back side of a scrap from the floral pattern on the left hand side and that piece measured 2 x 2 3/4 inches.
  
  I layered the white sheer ribbon from the collection all the way across the front of my card mat panel. I stamped the thank you sentiment from the Thank You So Much stamp set in this collection on a 1 3/4 inch circle of white cardstock and backed it with a 2 inch scalloped circle of the peach polka dot pattern. I fussy cut out 2 flowers from 2 other floral patterns in this collection to create a little grouping around my sentiment.
  
  I also used the double fish tail Banner Die that comes with the Banana Split kit level to create a little fishtail strip that’s layered on top of the ribbon. I finished my card front off with some white enamel dots from the kit as well!
  
  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed my sneak peek today! Please be sure to check back each day for more peeks at this month’s kit and come back this Saturday for the blog hop and debut of the full Simply Sentimental card kit!

- Simple But Elegant Christmas Card – October 2020 FOTM
  
  Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Nov 7th
  Hello crafty friends! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today! I made a simple but elegant card using the Classic Cardinals collection from the October 2020 Flavor of the Month kit. I love the contrast of the red with the white and gray!
  
  For my card I used the Classic Cardinals collection from the kit along with the stencil from the Banana Split kit level and some white cardstock. You can watch my full process video HERE.
  
  I used the pattern that had the solid gray in the middle with the birdhouses on the top and bottom. I did trim out each section so that I could piece it back together so it would fit a standard A2 size card (4.25×5.5 inches).
  
  I used some Candied Apple distress ink and a makeup sponge along with the Merry Christmas part of the stencil to create my sentiment on the solid gray section.
  
  I cut a piece of white cardstock down to 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches and layered the patterned paper pieces back together on that cardstock piece. I used the red ribbon in this collection to cover where the 2 papers met.
  
  Then I finished the card off with a red ribbon bow, some off white enamel dots (from the collection), and some White Blizzard Nuvo Glitter drops on the roofs of the birdhouses!

- Sneak Peek of the September 2020 Flavor of the Month Card Kit
  
  Posted at 11:35 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Sep 20th
  It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today and I’m super excited to share a sneak peek of the September 2020 Flavor of the Month kit!
  
  When I saw that there was a gnome stamp in one of the collections I was in love! I decided to create my card using a grid pattern so I could use several of the patterns. You can watch my full process video HERE.
  
  I used the gnome and the Happy Fall sentiment from the stamp set and then colored them in. I trimmed the gnome piece into a tag for the focal point of my card.
  
  I used a red cardstock card base and then a white cardstock mat behind my pattern paper rectangles. I trimmed each pattern paper down to 1 7/8 by 2 1/2 inches. And then just adhered them in a grid.
  
  I finished off the card with some tan and white twine and tan enamel dots.
  
  Thanks for stopping by to see me card today! Be sure to check back here each day this week for more sneak peeks! The full kit reveal will be next Saturday along with the blog hop.

- Bubble Gum Treat Holders – August FOTM Inspiration
  
  Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Sep 6th
  Hello everyone! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today with a fun little bubble gum treat holder project!
  I wanted to create a treat holder for the bubble gum pack that only used 1 sheet of 6×6 paper. I chose to use the Bubbles Galore collection #4 from the August Flavor of the Month Kit. To get a better idea of how to make this, you can watch the full process video HERE.
  
  Start with your 6×6 piece of patterned paper and trim it at 4 inches. You will now have one piece that is 4×6 inches and one that is 2×6 inches. Trim the 2×6 inch piece down to 2×4.5 inches.
  
  Take the 4×6 inch piece and score it at 2 3/4 inches and again at 3 1/4 inches. This creates a little folder that will be the outside of our treat holder.
  
  For the 2×4.5 inch piece, you’ll need to score from side to side at 1/2, 1, 3 1/2 and 4 inches. Then turn the piece and score up from the bottom at 1/2 and 1 inch. You’ll have a set of 4 squares at each of the bottom corners. Trim this off to allow the pocket to fold up cleaner.
  
  Now you can adhere your pocket to the inside of the folder! I used some Art Glitter Glue for this. Then you can embellish the outside. I added some white ribbon similar to what originally came in my August kit to hold the folder closed. Then I finished it off with some ephemera from the Bubbles Galore collection.
  
  Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this fun little project and found a new way to use the fun bubble papers in this month’s kit!
  
  Have a crafty day!

- Revisiting the September 2018 FOTM Kit
  
  Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Aug 15th
  Hello! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today and I am revisiting the September 2018 Flavor of the Month card kit. I’m focusing on Fall projects this month, so I decided to pull this cute little kit out and have some fun. You can see the full project share video HERE.
  I combined collections 2 and 3 to make a cute little Fall themed mini scrapbook album.
  
  I used some 5 1/2 inch square Kraft envelopes to create my album base. I used the patterned papers, cardstocks, stamps and ephemera from the collections to decorate up the album.
  
  From the Let’s Talk About Bees collection, I made 5 cards, 3 of which used the super cute Bumblebee Marci stamp set. I decorated up a mini composition notebook using patterned paper and a piece of ephemera. I also made a post it note pad holder, using the cute beehive paper and ephemera. And, lastly, I was able to make a little tag using up the scraps from this collection.
  
  I loved this Amber Moon collection from Prima! It’s so pretty! I made 7 cards and a couple of lunch box cards to use up the scraps.
  
  I had one piece of scarecrow ephemera left and since it had sunflowers on it (sunflowers are my favorite), I made a little decor piece using a small wooden block I had on hand. I managed to pool scraps from all the collections together to get one more full size card and one more lunch box note.
  
  Thanks for stopping by today! I had a lot of fun with this collection and the paper was all so pretty! I hope you can find some inspiration to use up an older kit in your stash as well! Have a crafty day!

- Tropical Fruit – July 2020 FOTM
  
  Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
  
  Aug 9th
  Hello everyone, Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today! I used the Tropical Frui t collection from the July 2020 Flavor of the Month Card kit to make 2 quick cards this week. You can watch the full process video HERE.
  
  For my first card I used the slimline sketch, SFL Sketch Challenge #7, from this month’s sketch sheet.
  
  I used 2 strips of the blue polka dot paper and matched them up in the middle to create a stripe across the front of my card. I stamped one of the pineapples from the stamp set and then used the water color paints from the Banana Split level add-on to give them some color. I did use one small piece of the yellow patterned paper from the In the Tropics, Collection 4 to stamp my sentiment on in the middle. To finish this card off, I added some Dandelion Yellow Nuvo Crystal Drops in the top left and bottom right corners.
  
  For my second card, I decided to use the scraps I had left from my slimline card.
  
  I pieced the scraps together into a grid pattern. I used another scrap of that yellow patterned paper to stamp my sentiment and added a pineapple that I stamped and colored. As a finishing touch on this card, I added some 1/2 inch circles from the yellow patterned paper to bring in more pops of yellow.
  
  Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you are enjoying your July card kit as well!
