From the colors, to the patterns, to the adorable beach houses ... this book is just so much fun!  I started with a teal Simple Stories binder album, and layered white card stock throughout so that all of the Doodlebug Seaside Summer cuteness would really pop.

NEW! Where The Wild Thing Are Scrapbook Album

Happy Friday! Today, I have a new scrapbook called Where The Wild Things Are and it's filled with butterflies, ferns and all things found in nature. It's perfect for photos of any outdoor adventure like a summer vacation, time spent at the lake, hiking in the woods, boating, and enjoying the fresh air.

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album Kit

To purchase the instructions for this scrapbook visit:

I designed and cut this beautiful 6x8 inch album out of wood (perfect for a nature album) and used a sturdy, heavy-weight cream card stock for the inside pages. I always use high quality materials in my albums so they're sure to last as long as your memories do, lol!

Outdoor Scrapbook Album Page with mushrooms

I used the Simple Stories Vintage Lakeside Collection and I love how organic and natural it feels. The papers have images of leaves, mushrooms, butterflies, ducks, fish, moose, bears, plaids, and stripes. The colors are earthy and include green, brown, terracotta, teal, and sky blue.

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album Page with ferns

This album could be used for lots of different photos but I thought it would be perfect for a summer trip to the lake. Ahhhh, so peaceful. Time to unplug from our busy lives and enjoy Mother Earth.  

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album Page with butterflies

Add pictures of the cabin your staying at, the sunrise, and the beautiful views from the porch. Take a morning hike and get photos of the waterfall, streams, changing foliage, and selfies with your hiking buddy. With 12 pages (6 double-sided) and space for 30+ photos, there's plenty of room for your special moments.

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album with folding page

If you're camping ... awesome! Add photos of your campsite, tent or RV, time spent exploring, building a campfire, roasting marshmallows, story telling, and star gazing at night.   

This would also be great for your kids sleepaway camp pictures. Fun times with friends and all the outdoor activities could be saved here for an amazing keepsake for them.

Lake Vacation Scrapbook Album Page with trees and canoe

If you live at the lake and spend a lot of time boating ... you need this album. Add memories of family gatherings, an afternoon on the boat, tubing with the littles, or a weekend of fishing with friends.

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album Page with pocket and journaling cards

The kit comes with lots of foam stickers like the "Lake Life" one above so, you'll have extras left over. Create this album exactly like I did, or ... change up the titles to suit your needs. Be creative and have fun with it!

Outdoor Adventure Scrapbook Album Page with bear and pocket

Check out this kraft colored envelope. It's perfect for storing extra photos, journaling cards, or notes. You can also add small memorabilia like a map, business cards, or brochures from a fun activity (river rafting, tubing, ATV rides, etc.).

I hope you're enjoying some time away in nature this summer. Thanks for stopping by the blog today & happy scrappin'!

My Happy Place Mini Album with Doodlebug Design

Hey friends! Today, I'm sharing my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project - a new circle window album! It uses Doodlebug's adorable My Happy Place Collection, a Shadow Box Insert Kit, and my own black Acrylic Circle Window Album. The instructions and the black acrylic album are available in my shop (links below). This project is perfect for photos of family, friends and fun times at home.

My happy place family home scrapbook album with sticker collage

To purchase the instructions to make this album visit:

I started with my 8x8 inch black acrylic album but you make this out of chipboard or card stock instead. The circle window in the cover is just the right size for this sweet round sticker collage.

Look how cute it is with the rhinestone gems and the little enamel sprinkles! I love all the details.

Have you had a chance to play with these Shadow Box Insert Kits yet? If not ... I highly recommend. The kit comes with a circle template, card stock, vellum and tons of stickers to create this collage. It's so much fun. You place the stickers on the vellum with the help of a template behind it. I love these. This is my fourth album using them. (Instructions for those are available in my shop as well.)

My happy place family scrapbook page with houses and flowers

The pages inside are filled with My Happy Place cuteness. This one has a folding element for extra photo space. When you flip open the side panel, it looks like this ...

I added die cuts from the Odds and Ends and Chit Chat. I love the house with the flower covered roof and that yellow polka dot car. Wouldn't this mat be perfect for a family photo?

My happy place family scrapbook page with pocket and journaling cards

I used a pretty mix of prints on the pocket page above and included some 4x4 element cards to the pocket. You can add photos to the backside of these or use them for journaling.

This mini album is super fun to make and this paper collection is so happy. It's bright and cheerful and it has everything you need to highlight your family photos. It even has die cuts for your sweet furry friends!

I also have some other themes using Doodlebug's Shadow Box Insert Kits. I have Halloween, Disney, Baby, and Recipe.

Wallet Mini Album with Lori Whitlock

Hey there! If you follow me, then you know I love making mini albums. All shapes, all sizes, all themes ... love, love, love. So for my project today, I made a mini using one of Lori's cutting files that's in the shape of an adorable little wallet. This is so cute and interactive, soooo yeah ... it's right up my alley! I've added a video at the bottom of the page - so be sure to check it out. 💗

Wallet Shaped Mini Album with rainbows

I chose the Echo Park, All About A Girl Collection, also designed by Lori Whitlock. The pattern papers in this collection are so pretty with flowers, rainbows, plaids, and bows. And to create the little closure, I added 2 brads and some yellow twine.

Wallet Shaped Mini Album with fold out pages and pockets

The wallet is a tri-fold and once it's opened you'll see it has 3 sections. The top part has space for 3 small photos and the middle section has two fold-out pages that open up to either side.

Look how cute these are with these girly prints! Each side holds 6 photos on the front and back.

You can add a larger photo or 2 smaller ones to the center pink photo mat and down below, 2 little pockets!

I added pieces from the Ephemera Frames and Tags to each pocket. Die cut shapes with fun sayings are perfect for journaling on. Just flip them over and add dates, names, locations or sweet stories about the event or photo.

Lori has so many awesome cutting files to play with and I hope you'll give this one a try. Have fun!

Ice Cream Truck Mini Album

Hey scrappers! Sunday was National Ice Cream Day and it got me thinking about how cute an ice cream truck mini album would be. So ... I made one! You could add photos of an ice cream party, a trip to the ice cream shop with the kiddos, a birthday, or an evening at a food truck festival!

Ice Cream Truck Scrapbook Album By Artsy Albums

Isn't it cute and kinda funny? I don't know why but this one made me laugh. I designed it using a cutting file from Doodlebug's Sweet Summer collection called Ice Cream Truck (link below). I cut the truck shaped album covers out of white acrylic but you could use cardstock instead.

Ice Cream Food Truck Scrapbook Album

I chose a colorful mix of papers. I used prints from Doodlebug's Sweet Summer collection and Bella Blvd's, Besties Graph/Dot and Hearts/Ombre. On the cover, the little scalloped border sticker with rainbow dots is from the Sweet Summer This and That. I used mini icon stickers for the ice cream in the window and some foam tape behind the awning to give it dimension. 

Ice Cream Food Truck Scrapbook Album Page with cart and umbrella

On this page, I used the Bella Besties Graph paper in Gulf for the background, then added a flower mat and the ice cream cart die cut from the Sweet Summer Odds and Ends.

Ice Cream Truck Scrapbook Album Page with flowers and snow cone

This Gulf Ombre paper is double sided and has cute hearts on the reverse side. I love great patterns that can do double duty! The fun saying is something me and my cousins use to chant when we were on our way to the ice cream shop during family vacations. So, I had to add that, lol! It's from the Sweet Summer Chit Chat.

Ice Cream Truck Scrapbook Album Page with hearts

I'm loving the pink color (called punch) of the Bella Besties Heart paper. It looks so cute with the pretty plaid. Added a few more die cuts and ... another page is ready for a photo!

Ice Cream Truck Scrapbook Album Page with folding card

Here, I layered 2 Bella Besties in Dot (Cotton Candy) and Graph (Gulf), then I made a super cute flippie with a 4x3 inch card. Inside, there an even tinier ice cream print! It's adorable!

Truck Scrapbook Album Page with cocktails & mixed drinks

This is a great page to show you how you could make a food truck album with ANY theme using different papers. So, if you go to a festival or "Food Truck Friday" with friends, you could have a Mexican themed page, or burgers, noodles, or cupcakes! I personally love the cocktails, lol! But use your imagination, be creative and make these pages appropriate for your photos.

What ever theme you choose, this little album would make a great place for your memories. Below are some of the products I used that are still available. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
