I have been wanting to make one of these for a very long time! I bought this recipe book solely for this purpose, but truth be known, I actually have a copy of it in my recipe collection too!
I used a bunch of random bits and pieces I have had in my stash for a while, and combined them with items that are newer from Country Craft Creations and from Your Creative Studio.
These cards are just gorgeous and fun, and I used up my scraps from my Country Craft Creations design team package to make them. Please come and check out this video, I think you'll like them as much as I do!
Welcome back. This is a fun project and I think you will love it.
I used Heartfelt Creations "Friendship Rose" paper collection to make the first one, and during the tutorial I used Country Craft Creations "Love is in the Air" paper collection.
This doesn't take too many supplies, it really depends on how many tags and photo mats you add to it. For the base of the book you will need 6 sheets of cardstock. I used Artisan from Country Craft Creations, black for the one, white for the other. Cardstock can be found here.
Each book used approximately 5-6 pieces of 12 x 12 patterned papers, more for the tags and photo mats. You will also need a small piece of heavy weight chipboard for the spine.
Below is a cut list for one book.
Spine:
Heavyweight Chipboard, 1 - 2 x 4
Cardstock, 1 - 4 x 6, and 1 at 3 1/2 x 3 7/8
Hinges:
3 - 1 x 3 7/8
Envelopes:
5 - 11 1/2 x 9
Tags and photomats depend on how big and how many you wish.
I did use several eyelets in this project and several yards of seambinding for the album closure and bows. Seambinding can be found here. The lace can be found here.
I also mention the Facebook Group "Scrapbookers of Country Craft Creations" When you join this group you will find all sorts of things to keep your crafty heart happy. Come check it out.
Thanks so much for watching and I hope you have fun making one of these for your own.
Welcome back to my site. This is a fun project that looks like a decorative book piece but is also a gift box. In these boxes you can put goodies for your Valentine, and I've also created a small tag album to go inside. I'm using Heartfelt Creations "Friendship Roses" by Country Craft Creations, which can be found here. The Heartfelt Creations Dies that I used for the album can be found here:
Tag Die
Pocket Die, this is currently sold out, I'm sorry, but please keep checking back.
Each outer box used 1 (12 x 12) sheet of heavyweight chipboard, 2 sheets of main color of cardstock. Each inner box used about 1/2 sheet of lightweight chipboard and 3 sheets of main color cardstock. Patterned paper for the entire project totals about 8-10 sheets of 12 x 12, depending on how you want to decorate the boxes. I used 2 sheets of Summer Ivory, a coordinating color of cardstock for the outer boxes.

Today in this video we are making this fun card with Heartfelt Creations "Friendship Roses" collection and Country Craft Creations "Snowman and Friends" collection. This is fun project and I'll also show you how to make two types of envelopes to go with it.
You don't need an explosion scoreboard for this, we can make it with a regular scoreboard. I also use the envelope punch board. Everything else is "basic" supplies. The cards with envelopes require 4 sheets of cardstock. If you use 12 x 12 patterned paper, it requires 4 sheets, and for 8 x 8 paper it takes 7 sheets. Below is a cutting list and also links to the products I used. I hope you enjoy it!
For envelopes using the envelope scoreboard, cut cardstock at 9 7/8 x 9 7/8
For envelopes using the regular scoreboard, cardstock is 12 x 12
Cardstock for the cards:
Base 1 - 10 x 7
Sides 2 - 3 x 7
Main Squash, 1 - 6 x 6
Smaller Squash, 2 - 5 1/4 x 5 1/4
I cut pieces to write sentiments...(Optional, watch the video for explanation)

Welcome back to my channel.
I have a very simple desk calendar idea that is so quick to put together and a stash buster at the same time. It has a simple easel and uses the die cut tags from Heartfelt Creations "Album Tags and Accents" die set. These are available at Country Craft Creations.
I used the exclusive paper collection "Remember the Time" from Country Craft Creations.
I also used cardstock, and chipboard.
I will talk about the calendars in the tutorial and where to get them. But you can also check out this site, https://print-a-calendar.com/make-a-calendar. This link will take you to where you can customize a printable calendar.
For easel:
Cardstock
1 - 10 x 4
1 - 4 x 4
1 - tag die cut
Light Weight Chipboard, (covered with cardstock on one side only)
2 - 3 7/8 x 3 7/8
For the calendar, I used 6 die cut tags, and mini calendars matted with cardstock. I used 12 die cut mats for the tags in the calendar papers. Please note that your mini calendars may vary in size so please check yours, measure and mat accordingly.

Welcome to the Country Craft Creations 2023 New Years Eve YouTube Hop!
We are all very excited to be bringing you our projects. We were challenged to do something we haven't done, something we have been wanting to try.
For the longest time I have been looking at the "Fold and Stitch" fabric centerpieces, and I have wanted to adapt them to paper. I did it! I'm using Country Craft Creations "Sugar and Spice" paper collection and I think you will like it! It is easy to do, and during the tutorial I will discuss other ideas you can do with this design.
The following designers are also doing videos on techniques/tutorials. Please visit their channels. We would all love to hear what you think, and please, if you haven't, subscribe to our channels so you can be notified of all of our videos. Thank you!

1 patterned paper or cardstock Center, 6 x 6
Patterned papers, 14 at 4 x 4. You can use all one pattern (if you do you will need 3 sheets of the same paper), or you can use different patterns, and I will discuss this in the video.
14 embellishments of your choice, which could include flowers, buttons, rhinestones, etc.
Thanks for watching!!! Have fun, and I will see you in the new year!!
