    • 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!

      Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have a crafty day!

    • Happy Pumpkin Spice Season Slimline Card

      Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
      Oct 11th

      Hello, it’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts back today! I’m making a slimline card today to play along with the October 2020 Scrapping for Less card sketch challenge!

      I used the Teresa Talks Fall stamp set along with the chevron patterned paper from the Neutrals Vol. 1 paper collection.

      I also used the SFL Sketch Challenge #8 card sketch. You can see my full process video HERE.

      The card sketch makes it easy and gives you all the measurements. I used a navy cardstock panel as my mat and then cut the patterned paper into 3 inch strips. I just trimmed those strips down so that the patterned paper would look like it created one solid 3 by 8 inch panel on top of the navy card mat.

      I used a 2 3/4 inch stitched circle die to cut out my colored image and then a 3 inch circle die to cut another piece of the navy cardstock to mat my image. This circle then covered the seam where my 2 patterned paper pieces meet up on the card.

      I added an orange strip to play off the orange in my colored image and used the sentiment “Happy Pumpkin Spice Season” from the stamp set. I finished off my card with some orange enamel dots left over from a recent Flavor of the Month card kit.

      Thanks for checking out my card today! I hope you’re all having a crafty day!

    • Golden Beach Mini Album and a Bonus Card

      Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
      Oct 4th

      Hello friends! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here today and I’m excited to share my fun little project with you! I am using the new Golden Beach paper collection to make a mini scrapbook album and a bonus card with the scraps!

      If you’d like to watch how I made my mini album and card, you can view the full process video HERE.

      Along with the paper collection, I used some 5 1/2 inch square Kraft envelopes from my stash, the At the Beach Sentiments stamp set and some sequins from a past Flavor of the Month card kit.

      I used the envelopes as the base of my album, adhering the flap of one envelope into another envelope to make a set of pages. I used Art Glitter Glue for this step. You just repeat the process until you have the amount of pages you want. Once you get your last envelope added on, you take the flap from the very first envelope and adhere it down to the very last envelope you added. You can see the full process in the video.

      The start of my album, inserting one flap into another envelope.

      Once my album was put together, I trimmed the patterned paper down to 5 3/8 square for both the covers and inner pages. This allowed a small Kraft border to be visible around my patterned paper. I decorated the pages with the scrap strips I had left from cutting down the 6×6 paper, along with the stamped sentiments and images.

      I adhered my decorated pages to the album with Scor-tape. I finished the album off with some sequins throughout, just to add a little pop of bling.

      Once I finished the album, I realized I had a bunch of scrap strips leftover, so I decided to make a card to use those pieces up.

      I cut down a piece of cardstock to 3 3/4 by 5 inches. I added some adhesive across the whole front of this panel and then started laying the strips down diagonally across my panel. I added a piece of cardstock behind this panel as a card mat. I used one of the At the Beach sentiments that I had stamped but not used for the album as the sentiment for this card.

      Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed seeing the Golden Beach paper as well as my quick little mini album! Have a great day!

    • 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!

    • 4 Cute Projects Using the Cool Treats Paper Collection

      Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
      Aug 16th

      Hello there! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts back today and I’m playing with the new Cool Treats paper collection recently released by Scrapping for Less. I love the combination of popsicle patterns along with the dots and stripes. You can watch the full process video for my projects HERE.

      For my first project, I made a card using the watermelon treat paper.

      I started off with a spearmint green card base. I added a mat of white cardstock and then the polka dot side of the patterned paper. I matted my strip of the watermelon pattern with white cardstock as well to help it pop. I added my sentiment along with some Blushing Red Nuvo Crystal Drops to finish off the card.

      For my next project, I used an entire sheet of the pastel popsicle pattern paper to decorate a Dollar Tree mini comp book.

      I cut 2 patterned paper pieces to 3 by 4.5 inches. I adhered these to the front and back covers of the comp book. I used part of the remaining strip I had to back my sentiment/embellishment on the front of the notebook. I used my last scrap piece to decorate the inside of the front cover.

      For my last two projects, I chose this cute rainbow popsicle pattern. I started with the nail file holder and cut this patterned piece down to 3.5 by 6 inches. Then I scored it at 1 inch, 1 1/4 inches, 2 1/4 inches and 3 1/2 inches. I put the box together, added my nail file and then embellished with a tag punched from a scrap of the patterned paper and a sticker from a previous kit.

      And for my final little project, I made a mini post it note holder. I cut down the remaining piece of the pattern paper to 2 1/4 by 5 inches. Then I scored at 1 1/8 inches, 1 1/2 inches, 3 1/8 inches and 3 1/2 inches. I glued in my Dollar Tree mini post it note pad. I added a small piece of adhesive velcro to help my holder to stay closed. Then I finished if off with another tag cut from scraps and popsicle sticker.

      Thanks for stopping back by today! I hope you enjoyed these projects! They were so fun and quick and I know some young girls who will love them!

    • 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!
