Hi creative friends,
This week, I’m delighted to share some truly inspiring creations from our talented Design Team members, Lauren from Shabby Chic Sundae, Nicola from Shabby Journals Crafts and More and Jaren of Diarist Manila.
These ladies have poured their hearts into crafting beautiful and functional pieces that showcase the charm of the Shabby Nativity and Whimsy & Roses kits.
From a heartwarming nativity journal to a stunning 3D birdhouse planner storage, and even a creative shabby-style upcycled mantel clock, there’s so much to admire and be inspired by.
Whether you’re looking for holiday-themed projects or planning essentials for 2025, these designs offer something special for every crafter.
Shabby Nativity Kit
Available on Etsy – Letter size and A4 paper size.
Lauren ~ Shabby Chic Sundae
Lauren shared the sweetest Nativity-themed Christmas journal.
Staying true to the naive and whimsical style of the Shabby Nativity kit, Lauren crafted a journal that is beautifully simple, adorned with neutral laces, twine, and the charming fussy cuts from the kit.
Along with a flip-through of her journal, Lauren has provided a step-by-step tutorial for making this heartwarming project.

This project is truly delightful, Lauren. Thank you for sharing your talent!

Lauren ~ Shabby Chic Sundae
Lauren has once again wowed us with her creativity!
This week, she presented a 3D birdhouse that serves as a storage space for a stunning 2025 planner and journal, as well as a sweet mini planner.
The birdhouse, skillfully constructed by Lauren’s dad, Larry, from chipboard, features intricate polymer clay windows, doors, signs, and a charming scalloped roof.
Lauren’s beautiful decorating touches bring the Whimsy & Roses kit to life.
Be sure to check out her flip-through on YouTube.
This is such an incredible collaboration, Lauren and Larry. A masterpiece indeed!

Nicola has been incredibly busy this week, creating not one but three breathtaking projects using the Whimsy & Roses kit.
Creative Planner Journal
Nicola designed a gorgeous shabby-style creative journal and planner for 2025.
Using the 5″ x 7″ journal papers from the kit, she adorned it with button cards, spools, birds, and flowers.

Tea Caddy Embellishment Box
Nicola transformed a simple tea caddy into a shabby embellishment box. Decorated with elements from the kit, it’s filled with creative goodies like button cards and spools.
