Scrapped! Episode 30 – Gratitude Mini Album

A Beautiful Way to Celebrate What Matters Most

November always inspires me to slow down and reflect on the things I’m most grateful for. For Scrapped! Episode 30, I wanted to create something that captured those heartfelt moments in a way I could revisit year after year. Instead of a traditional scrapbook page, I designed a Gratitude Mini Albumβ€”a keepsake filled with texture, layers, and interactive elements that make memory keeping both meaningful and fun.

This mini album is built using our Flip Flaps and features gorgeous pull-outs, flaps, pockets, and hidden journaling spots. It’s the perfect way to document gratitude, seasonal reflections, or family traditions during the holidays. And because the album structure is so versatile, you can recreate it for any themeβ€”thankfulness, celebrations, travel, or even a yearly highlight book.

πŸŽ₯ Be sure to watch the episode for a closer look at how the project comes together and ideas for customizing your own album.


About the Album

For this project, I started with chipboard (the kind that comes in Paper Pumpkin kits or many of our other crafting kitsβ€”recycling win!) to create sturdy front and back covers. The inside includes multiple sizes of Flip Flaps, thoughtful fold-outs, a waterfall element, reinforced center pages, and plenty of spaces for photos, journaling, and decorative touches.

Once the structure was built, I decorated the album using the warm, earthy tones of the Gathering Together Suite (165987), which felt absolutely perfect for a gratitude theme. The stamps, dies, textures, and embellishments all came together beautifully to create a heartfelt, cozy design.

Featured Products

Gathering Together Suite (#165987)

  • Gathering Moments Stamp Set (#165970)
  • Gathering Moments Dies (#165979)
  • Gathering Together Designer Series Paper (#165969)

  • Early Espresso & Old Olive Baker’s Twine Combo (#165986)

  • Our Story Stamp Set (#167109)

The color paletteβ€”Basic Beige, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, Old Olive, and Champagne Foilβ€”set the warm and inviting tone that makes this mini album feel extra special.

Day 27 – Farmhouse Holiday: Ready to Jingle & Mingle

A Little Red Truck, a Christmas Tree, and the Perfect Thanksgiving Crafting Day

Happy Thanksgiving!
I honestly can’t think of a better way to celebrate than spending time doing what I loveβ€”crafting! And when today’s theme brought together Farmhouse Holiday + Jingle & Mingle, I knew exactly what I wanted to play with.

Because if you know me (or if you’ve ever stepped foot into my home during the holidays), you already know I’m obsessed with the little red truck hauling a Christmas tree. I have plenty of decorations to prove it! So when Stampin’ Up! released the Road to Christmas Kit (#166227), I knew immediately it was coming home with meβ€”and I’ve been saving it all month for today’s challenge.

Of course, I started by making the cards exactly as instructed (because the kit is adorable!), but then I wanted to get creative. Today’s featured card is my all-out farmhouse holiday spin with one of my favorite fun elements…

A pop-up arch!

🚚❀️ Building the Pop-Up Arch Feature

To transform the kit pieces into something extra special, I started with the Everyday Arches Dies (#164629).

Layered Arch Design

  • I cut the background piece from the kit using one of the arch dies.
  • Then I cut a slightly larger arch from kraft cardstock.
  • To create the pop-up mechanism, I folded a piece of kraft cardstock in half and cut the arch againβ€”but this time leaving the top edge just over the fold line, so it didn’t cut all the way through.
  • I scored the top of that folded arch at 2-1/2″.
  • Then I attached the full kraft arch to the lower part of the folded piece.
    This allows the entire arch to pop up beautifully when the card opens!

It adds such a fun, dimensional farmhouse feel.


πŸ“¨ Modifying the Kit Elements

πŸŽ„ Card Base Details

To build the card base:

  • I cut the card front from the kit in half.
  • Trimmed it to 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″.
  • Mounted it on a Cherry Cobbler base cut to 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″.

πŸ’¬ Sentiments & Envelope Magic

Instead of using the English phrases from the kit, I grabbed one of the greetings in a different language and layered my own sentiment on top using the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (#166208).

Then I pulled out one of the kit envelopes (which are WAY too fun to use only as envelopes!). I cut it open and:

  • Trimmed the center to 5-1/4″ x 4″ for another project.
  • Used the leftover side strip as a perfect decorative layer behind my sayingsβ€”both outside and inside!

Tip:
You don’t need to put the entire strip behind the whole sentimentβ€”just enough to peek out. That allowed me to stretch the piece for both front and inside sentiments.

For the inside, I layered the sentiment on Cherry Cobbler and Lost Lagoon cardstock so the pop-up arch had something sturdy to catch on when standing.

A bit of red baker’s twine finished the front perfectly.

πŸŽ„ Quick, Easy, and Kit-Friendly

One fun thing to note:

There is NO stamping on this card!

Using the kit + ephemera + a few dies made this pop-up card fast, unique, and perfectly on-theme. This is exactly why I love Stampin’ Up!’s kitsβ€”they make it so easy to elevate a project with a few added touches.

❀️ What Do You Think?

I love how farmhouse and festive this turned outβ€”and that little red truck makes me happy every time I see it. If you’re a farmhouse Christmas fan too, you will love the Road to Christmas kit.

Would you try a pop-up arch card like this?

✨ Bonus Project!

Remember that extra piece I trimmed from the envelope? I couldn’t resist turning it into another card! I pulled out my beloved retired Trucking Along Set (#162299) and created a fun bonus project using that piece.

I love when a single kit piece inspires multiple cardsβ€”and this one came together so easily with that adorable little truck!

Want more details on how I created this bonus card?
Let me know, and I’ll be happy to post a full tutorial! πŸššπŸŽ„βœ¨

Day 22 – A Little Bit of Festive Flora & Oh Deer!

Silly Deer Mishaps + Paper Pumpkin Fun

Today’s challenge theme brought together two fun ideas: festive flora and oh deerβ€”and that instantly reminded me of this month’s Paper Pumpkin kit and its adorably silly deer mishaps. The original kit was designed to create cute tags and gift boxes, but you know me… I couldn’t resist turning those tags into full cards!

A layout sketch for a card-making challenge, featuring a framed design in pale pink against a light blue background.

The TGIFC551 Sketch Challenge (even though it’s finished now) was the perfect layout inspiration. I loved the balance and simplicity of the sketch, and it translated beautifully to both tag designs in the kit.


Transforming the Tag into a Card

To bring out the playful β€œoh deer!” vibe, I reached for one of my favorite retired sets: Cookie-Cutter Christmas (#142043) with the coordinating punch. That sweet little deer was exactly what the project needed.

I added a festive pop using the Real Red Shiny Ribbon (#165876)β€”a tiny bow with a big holiday statement!

For the card base, I stamped the Linen Background Stamp (#167107) to add soft texture without overwhelming the design. It really ties everything together and gives the card a more polished look.

The end result?
A fun, festive, simple-to-create card that came together quickly and still feels special and works for both the challenges.


Bonus Card!

Since I loved the layout so much, I used the second tag design from the kit to create an additional card using the same sketch. Paper Pumpkin always makes it so easy to branch out and try new ideasβ€”whether you follow the directions as-is or grab your supplies and create something entirely different.

πŸͺ✨ Day 16 – Peace on Earth Meets Cookie Exchange

Day 16 definitely stretched my creativity! Peace on Earth and Cookie Exchange aren’t themes you’d normally see together… but one of our amazing Stampin’ Up! kits made pulling them together surprisingly simple.

Day 16 definitely stretched my creativity! Peace on Earth and Cookie Exchange aren’t themes you’d normally see together… but one of our amazing Stampin’ Up! kits made pulling them together surprisingly simple.

I decided to take the Loveliest Wishes Kit (#166284)β€”a beautiful, soft-colored non-holiday kitβ€”and challenge myself to transform it into Christmas cards. The kit includes enough supplies to make three each of three different designs, so I started by creating the cards exactly as intended. They’re simple, easy, and so much fun to put together!

I love the soft color palette in this kit, so next I grabbed the A Little Cheer Stamp Set (#166121) and the coordinating dies (#166123) and began the holiday transformation. My personal challenge was to use only the paper that came in the kit, so I:

  • Stamped on the extra paper pieces
  • Used greetings in other languages and stamped on the back
  • Punched images from the kit’s pre-printed elements

Because the coordinating kit colors are Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink, converting these beautiful cards into sweet Christmas designs was simple and natural. The leaf designs were perfect for the Peace on Earth theme, and the β€œHappy Christmas” card with the punched images gave me instant cookie vibes for the Cookie Exchange challenge.


🍬 Round Two – Jar of Joy Remix

I still had one more set of card bases left, so I grabbed the Jar of Joy Stamp Set (#166176) and coordinating punch (#165506). This time, I added a pop of Calypso Coral to brighten things up.

Fun fact:
πŸ‘‰ I used every single stamp in the Jar of Joy set across the three cards!
Just a note – I did use and extra piece of white paper to stamp and punch the jars; however, you could use the extra white piece that is used to pop on the images on the ornament Jar card and instead place the images directly on the card base.

I had so much fun stamping the greetings in multiple colorsβ€”just clean the stamp in between and keep going! This round, I was able to blend the Peace on Earth leaves with the cookie-inspired images to create a card that feels both peaceful and sweet.


πŸ’‘ Final Thoughts

Our kits are already fun, simple, and beautifully designed just the way they areβ€”but with a little creative magic and imagination, they can become so much more.

I would LOVE to see what you create with your kits!
