NEW! Crafty Friends Scrapbook Album

Happy Friday! It's time for a NEW kit, and today ... I've added a super fun and colorful album to the shop that's right up our scrapbooking alley! This one is titled Crafty Friends and it's perfect for anyone who loves creating beautiful things and crafting with the girls. 😊

Crafty Friends Scrapbook Album Kit by Artsy Albums

I designed this with a beautiful pink 6x8 inch Simple Stories binder and Bella Blvd's fabulous new collection called Let's Scrapbook. It's filled with lots of cute crafting supplies, like ... buttons, scissors, tape runners, rulers, markers, washi tape, craft totes, cameras, flowers, and a rainbow of pretty colors.

The album has 24 pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 4 flippies, and space for at least 65 photos.

That means there's plenty of room for saving pictures and fun memories from a weekend crop, classes, a scrapbook expo, or an awesome retreat with friends.

"Is there such a thing as too much table space?" 🠝 Oh, heck no! I have 3 large tables and 2 long counters in my scrapbook room and it's still not enough, lol! Then again ... making so many kits probably requires more space than the average scrapbooker but, I'm pretty sure everyone's answer is still the same! 😉

I love this fold-out page. It's so fun with the cute patterned paper covered in craft supplies and the mix of die cut pieces. I think all the different shapes makes it so interesting.

This mini is great for photos of an afternoon (or evening) crafting with your mom, sister, daughter, or friends? Take pictures, share ideas, swap supplies, tell stories, and ... enjoy a glass of wine.

Next time you attend a scrapbook retreat or a crop, take one of my kits to work on. It's so much easier than lugging a giant suitcase of different things. My kits come with the album, the pre-cut papers, and the embellishments. So, all you need to bring are your photos, adhesives, scissors, paper trimmer, a bone folder, and a hole punch. That all fits in ONE small bag!

How funny is it to go to a crop and create an Artsy Albums album ... that then, holds the photos of you and your friends creating the Artsy Albums album? LOL!! 😉

This scrapbook would be great for ANY type of crafter ... whether you're a scrapbooker, cardmaker, paper crafter, stamper, collage artist, or just love making DIY home or party decor. Document the wonderful, messy, and creative moments with friends so one day, you can remember the fun.

Thanks for visiting the blog today. Hop over to my shop next to see more of this album kit and many other projects. Happy crafting!

Spring & Easter Flower Cart Shaped Scrapbook Album

Hi everyone, check out my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project! It's an acrylic mini album shaped like a little flower cart with lots of adorable bunny rabbits. I designed it with the new Bunny Hop Collection (links below) and it's such a fun project to make for your spring and Easter photos. Take a look! 😊

Spring & Easter Flower Cart Shaped Scrapbook by Artsy Albums

To make this cutie, I started with one of my clear Acrylic Horizontal Mini Albums. I cut out 4 circles for the wheels and adhered them to the front and back covers with tiny clear glue dots. You could also make this out of white card stock or chipboard.

Next, I covered the wheels with floral die cuts from the Bits & Pieces (you'll need 2 packages). Then, I added some boutique buttons in bubblegum and a bit of twine in bumblebee. Now these wheels are ready to roll!

Just inside the cover on the first page, I added the 12x12 Easter Basket plaid. Ohhhh, how I love those pretty colors. Then I embellished with flowers from the Bits & Pieces, bunnies from the Odds & Ends, a banner from the This & That sticker sheet, lots of enamel Hello Spring flower sprinkles, and ... some mini jewels from the Easter Assortment (links below). It's all so pretty.

On the backside of that page, I used a playful 12x12 polka dot print called Spot of Spring. Then, I added two photo mats and adhered the matching die cut pieces back-to-back to the ones on the front side.

Here is a darling folding page that I covered in the fun little green Bunny Hop print. I added a few more photo mats, a sweet bunny die cut from the Odds & Ends, and the "You're my honey bunny" from the Chit Chat.

Who loves jelly beans? I do ... especially on the colorful Bunnies & Beans pattern paper above! It makes such a cute background for the clipboard journaling spot (from the Bits and Pieces) and my photo mat.

This little plaid basket full of flowers is adorable. I added another mini gem for tiny bit of sparkle!

My last page has a great little pocket that's perfect for storing memorabilia, extra photos, or ... journaling cards. I added 3 cute ones from the Easter Basket print and on the front - die cuts from the Chit Chat, Bits & Pieces, and Odds & Ends.

I've been having so much fun playing with the Bunny Hop Collection and I know you will too! I hope this mini album gives you some ideas. Until next time ... happy scrappin' everyone!
