NEW! You Color My World Mini Album Kit

Hey guys, I'm SO excited! Today, I have such a fun mini album to share with you that is not only my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project, but ... it's also this week's NEW mini album kit! This cutie is titled You Color My World and will be available in my shop tomorrow (Friday). It's made with a new custom acrylic album and the new Lucky Me Collection. 🌞 

The 6x6 album is a new design for me called Acrylic Stitched Frame Album. It has a circle window, green scalloped frame, and little holes in the cover so you can sew in some pretty twine! Then, I decorated the cover with sweet little die cuts.

Showing through the window from the first page is a colorful round die cut. It looks adorable but if you prefer, you could also add a photo.

Inside, there are 16 scrapbook pages that include 2 fold-outs, 3 pockets, 5 flippies (see one above), and space for 30+ photos.  

This Lucky Me Collection is perfect for spring memories and sure to take your mind off winter. It features cute ladybugs, colorful rainbows, little blue birds, and bright sunny colors! 

And speaking of sunny ... how cute is this fold-out page? I 💛 love 💛 this year's sun with its colorful rays! And underneath the flap, more pretty papers, photo mats, and a darling ladybug with a pot full of flowers.  

This spring scrapbook would be beautiful filled with pictures of family gatherings, fun with friends, Easter, a birthday, everyday moments, a church event, gardening, spring break, new baby photos, or a vacation. It would also make a great gift idea for Easter or Mother's Day.

I love a good pocket and this one is so cheerful. Just look at those journaling cards and sunshiny smiles! You can save extra photos and memorabilia here. Add a meaningful greeting card, an invitation, tickets to an event, a church program, a postcard from your travels, a recipe, or a seed packet from your favorite flowers.

I hope you love this fun new scrapbook and Doodlebug's fabulous Lucky Me Collection. It's bright, ohhhhhh so happy, and perfect for your spring memories!

Also, be sure to pick up one of my clear Acrylic Display Stands. This new mini album looks especially cute sitting out on it. 

My "You Color My World" Spring Scrapbook Kit (and premade) will be available in my shop tomorrow. Thanks for visiting the blog and have a wonderful day! 😊

OOAK Family Scrapbook Album and Instructions

Hello crafty girls! Today, I'm sharing a NEW one-of-a-kind preassembled mini album that will be available in my shop on Friday, and ... I'll also be adding the instructions for it! This sweet scrapbook is titled Family and it's perfect for photos of loved ones, friends, and fun memories at home.

I designed this with a collection titled Family from a brand new company to Artsy Albums called Stamperia. It's so charming and features a cute mouse family, books, cozy quilts, hearts, hot air balloons, flowers, and quaint little buildings.

I used my white 8x8 inch Acrylic Square Circle Window Album and added this picturesque scene on the first page behind the cover. The image has such beautiful details.

Inside, there are 12 scrapbook pages that include 1 pocket, 2 fold-out pages, 4 flippies, and space for 30 photos. Above, I added some adorable embellishments, 2 photo mats, and the "Love You So Much"  flippie.   

Here is the page with the flippie opened. I love that the scenic paper inside looks like a view from a window. 

Next, is one of the folding pages. The flap on the right lifts up to reveal 2 photo mats and, on the left ... a fabulous print filled with books, a cup of tea, a chalkboard, and more fun little mice. 

This scrapbook is perfect of family, fun moments at home, game night, celebrations, new baby photos, special occasions, a birthday, your lovable fur babies, and wonderful everyday moments.

Look how cute this pocket page is. I added the adorable mouse family across the bottom, then tucked lots of fun cards, tags, and chipboard embellishments inside.  

And we can't forget my clear Acrylic Display Stand! It's perfect for showing off your mini albums and can be set out year round filled with special pictures. 

I hope you like my new OOAK Family Scrapbook and this fun Stamperia collection. The one-of-a-kind premade will be available in my shop on Friday, along with the simple step-by-step instructions, and my Acrylic Square Circle Window Album. Have a crafty day! 😊

Retro Cassette Shaped Mini Album with Bella Blvd

Hey crafty girls! It's time for another fun Bella Blvd Design Team Project and this week, I created a mini album in the shape of a cute retro cassette tape. It's titled 4Ever and would be great for photos of loved ones, a special relationship, or Valentine's Day. If you grew up in the 80's (like me!) ... you're going to love this one. 

I designed it with the Bella Blvd, Our Love Song Collection that features vintage guitars, record players, albums, flowers, hearts, musical notes, roller skates, boom boxes, and those fun 1980's geometric patterns. This is so nostalgic!

For the album's shape, I found the perfect Bella Blvd cutting file. It's a cassette tape from a set called Our Love Song Collection 3. I cut the album covers out of black acrylic but you could use card stock instead.  

On the cover, I used the pink pattern called Skip a Beat, then added a mix of Bella Besties prints, black and white card stock, and fun embellishments. The 4EVER is a die cut from the ephemera words and the musical notes and heart are from the Let's Rock Bella-pops, which you will also see ...

 ... here! 👆 How fun is this pink boom box embellishment?! I love the tiny epoxy details. In the background, I added the colorful Love Notes print, then added the 3x4 card from the Daily Details. 

The album has 12 black cardstock pages that I layered with 12x12 pattern papers. Above, I used the Our Mix print in the backgroud and the Totally Rad paper for the photo mat. I added the tag and flower from the ephemera words and the "luv u" sticker from the doohickey sheet. The peace symbol is a puffy sticker. 

If you enjoy vibrant colors and fun patterns ... this collection is for you. Here, I mixed playful stripes with musical instruments and added the shiny rainbow Bella-pops (appropriately called Beautiful) at the top. I love how whimsical it all looks together!✨

On this page, I added a 4" circle that can be used for photos or journaling. The heart and the "hello love" are die cuts from the ephemera icons and words, and the lightening bolts are from the puffy stickers. 

Make this mini for yourself, or give it to someone as a Valentine's day gift. It would be so sweet filled with photos of your spouse, the littles or grandlittles, family, your parents, or best friends!

This fabulous keepsake has 2 fold-outs, 1 pocket, 1 flippie (seen above), and space for 16 photos. 

I hope my 4Ever Scrapbook gives you a little inspiration. The Our Love Song Collection is bright, colorful, and super nostalgic. If you have fun memories from the 80's and 90's, or ... just love the retro feel of this mini, I hope you'll give it a try! 

Below are the links to the products used in this project. Have a wonderful day and happy scrapping! 😊🛼

NEW! Welcome Baby Girl and Boy Album Kits

Hello everyone! Great news! I finally received 2 new paper collections in the mail, which means ... time for some NEW mini album kits! These adorable scrapbooks are all about baby and they'll be in my shop on Friday. They're titled Welcome Little One Girl and Boy and loaded with interactive goodies and cute images.

First up, Welcome Little One Baby Girl ... 

I designed this with a 6x8 inch Doodlebug Design binder and the Carta Bella, Little Lullabies Girl Collection. It has soft pastel colors in shades of pink, yellow, mint, and green and the pages are filled with pretty flowers, teddy bears, toys, clothes, and baby furniture.

The album has 26 scrapbook layouts that include 3 pockets, 2 fold-out pages, 13 flippies (yay!), and space for 68+ photos. Yep, you heard me ... 68!! Perfect for every adorable moment of baby's first year. 😊 

Here's one of the pockets. I've tucked a bunch of cute journaling cards in it but you can also add memorabilia like ... sonogram pictures, baby's footprints, a copy of the birth certificate, hospital bracelets, a lock of hair, a baby shower invitation or birth announcement, or special greeting cards. 

The collection has 12 monthly numbered cards for baby's first year, so you can add photos documenting their growth. Or ... if you prefer, leave them out and simply add everyday memories.

Next, Welcome Little One Baby Boy ... 

I designed this with a 6x8 Doodlebug binder in bon bon and the Carta Bella, Little Lullabies Boy Collection. The colors are more masculine with shades of blue, green, yellow, and brown. And this time, the images are of trains, teddy bears, toys, clothes, and baby furniture.

I also added cards for journaling so you can document important dates, info, and milestones. Be sure to write about their birth, the nursery, hair color, first real food, favorite toys, first haircut, first steps, and why you chose their name.

If you have baby pictures that need a home ... you need one of these sweet albums. If you know someone who's pregnant, trying, or has recently delivered or adopted, this would make a fantastic gift idea!

These adorable Welcome Little One Baby Girl and Baby Boy Albums will be available in my shop on Friday. They make amazing keepsakes for your baby photos, or as baby shower gifts for someone else! 😊

12x12 Love Bug Valentine's Day Layout with Lori Whitlock

Hi friends! Today, I'm sharing my new Lori Whitlock Design Team Project and this week, I made a pretty 12x12 scrapbook page that's great for Valentine's Day photos. I used Lori's gorgeous cutting file called Square Background Set 2 (links below) that has the cutest heart shaped cutouts. Ohhhh, how I love it! 

This file is perfect for Valentine's day but since hearts are so generic, it can be used for ANY occasion. With a different paper collection, you could design this for birthday, wedding, family, pets, ... endless possibilities.

To make it, I started with 12x12 red cardstock as the base. Then, I cut Lori's file out twice - one in white card stock and another in Doodlebug Design's Buffalo Check and Woodgrain in swimming pool (links below). 

Next, I layered the white paper on top of the base cardstock. I love how the red shows through the cutouts. But for a little more color, I glued the little blue hearts from my second cut all around the edge. You could also make all of the hearts different colors or every other heart a different color. 

In the center, I added square photo mats sized at - red 2.75", white 2.5", and prints 2.25". For the patterns, I chose 6x6 papers from Doodlebug's Lots of Love Collection, then embellished with the Odds & Ends, Chit Chat, This & That stickers, and mini icon stickers (links below).

Here is what the file looks like ... 

Lori has lots of amazing background cutting files in her shop and they're so fun to create with. I hope today's layout inspires you to use one in your next project. Thanks for stopping by the blog and happy scrapping!

12x12 Snow Much Fun Winter Layout with Doodlebug

Hey guys! It's time for my next Doodlebug Design Team Project. Yay! I hope everyone is staying warm and toasty at home during the winter storms. We got some snow in Georgia and my grandlittles couldn't wait to get out in it. So today, I'm sharing a 12x12 scrapbook page I made with the beautiful Snow Much Fun Collection and a few of their photos. ❄️ 

To make it, I chose some card stock for the base in gorgeous colors of blue jean, pistachio, and lilac. Then, I layered a sheet of lily white on top. Next, I designed three 9.5 inch circles and welded them together as one piece. I cut it out using my Cricut machine and adhered it to the page. 

Time for embellishments! In the upper left corner, I added 3 beautiful snowflake die cuts from the Bits & Pieces and some cute little heart and snowflake puffy stickers. Then, a little bit of sparkle with the mini jewels.

In the right corner, I added the "Let's Stay Home" die cut from the Chit Chat, the Brrrrrr and heart stickers from the This & That, more mini jewels and puffy shapes, and snowflakes from the Bits & Pieces. Cute!

In the bottom corner, I created two 3x4 inch mats with the colorful striped print called Cold Streak, then added my sweet photos on top. To decorate, I added the "Chilly" This & That sticker, the cute house die cut from the Odds & Ends, and an adorable penguin puffy sticker. And for a little extra detail ... I added some puffy stickers to the snowflake die cuts and a mini jewel to the house as a doorknob. Love! 

This page is simple, fun to make, and filled with such cute embellishments. I hope you'll choose the beautiful Snow Much Fun Collection to document your special winter memories. Happy scrapping my friends! 😊
