Buzzing with Kindness

March 2, 2026March 6, 2026

Spring seems to be just around the corner…I am sure there is more winter to come here in South Dakota…but I am remaining hopeful. And with Spring just around the corner, it’s time to think about gardening and bees. So I broke out Lori’s Bee Happy collection. This is such a fun collection, and it’s perfect for Spring and Summer.

First, I used Lori’s A2 Honey Card. Silhouette Just the cutest little shaped card.

And next Lori’s Beehive Box Card. SVG I love to make both styles of these cards. Always my favorite and I get to use lots of embellishments from the collection.

Here’s hoping Spring is on the way and that the bees visit my garden

Hi everybody, it’s Holly! Today, I’m excited to share a fun “easy diy” project perfect for spring. This “Easter craft” tutorial shows you how to create an adorable hexagon Easter basket using a file from Lori Whitlock. It’s a great “do it yourself” “craft idea” that results in a lovely “handmade basket” for your holiday celebrations! The paper collection I used “Easter Basket” is also by Lori Whitlock. The beautiful pastel colors in the collection will make you SMILE!

Valentine Cat Bag and A2 Card Gift Set

February 5, 2026February 5, 2026

Hello Crafty Friends Noelene here today! With Valentine’s Day less than 2 weeks away today I want to share with you an adorable little bag & card gift set I made using one of the newest files from Lori Whitlock called Valentine Bag Cat (SVG), (Silhouette). I also created a matching card using an A2 card Base (SVG), (Silhouette)

To start off I cut out all the panel pieces for the bag. Make sure you cut 2 of each of all the panels that make the cat, (if you are making the card). I did not need to alter the size of the cat in any way as it fit nicely onto the a2 card base. Now start by putting all your pieces together for the cat by following the steps below.

Now it’s time to put the bag together. Glue all your bag panels onto the bag base.

Note the next step I did after glueing the panels, but it may be slightly easier to do before the panels are glued on, as the cardstock will be more flexible. Mountain fold the bottom flaps & valley fold the sides of the bag.

Next glue the side tab of the bag.

Glue the base then set your bag aside for the time being.

Now to create our matching A2 card. Firstly cut out all the panels. You will see that I have an extra rectangle piece of cardstock which is not in the file. I just cut out a rectangle 1.25″ x 4.25″ with the same paper I used on the side of my bag so that it coordinates with my card.

Glue the 2 front panels onto the card base.

Glue the extra rectangle piece onto the far right side of the inside of your card, so that when you close your card it will be visible from behind the pinking pattern.

Lastly to finish off place a cat onto the front of your bag & another onto the card front. I used foam squares to give it dimension. Then add the ribbon to your bag & any other embellishments you wish. Today I have kept it simple & only added a heart stickle.

2026 Sticky Note Calendar

January 1, 2026January 11, 2026

Sticky Note Calendar-2026

Pattern Fill Set Summer Splash

3 Valentine Gnomes (Silhouette)

Pictured above are the pieces I used for this project.

3 pieces for the calendar holder cut file, some Lori Whitlock pattern fill paper and some paper inserts (3×3.25 inches) I made for the holder since I didn’t have a sticky notepad. I cut the pieces and stamped some inspirational sentiments on each sheet. You will get 12 full sheets and 4 partial pieces that still work! I cut 2 sets of these.

Opening the calendar in Silhouette it imports to cut all the print, so you have to highlight and choose cut edge to cut them out properly. You also have to enlarge the print and cut length just a wee bit to allow for cutting all the calendar pages. I used regular printer paper for this part.
