Hey friends! It's time for my next Doodlebug Design Team Project and this week, I created a cute house shaped mini album with Doodlebug's Home Sweet Home Chipboard Album and the adorable Snow Much Fun Collection. It's a perfect keepsake for photos of family, friends, fun in the snow, and everyday memories.
I just love this mini. The 5x7 inch chipboard album comes as a blank canvas that features two covers, a roof top piece, four dividers, and four pages (link below). You could decorate it in with ANY theme but this beautiful collection turns the house into a cozy winter home.💙

For the cover, I chose a few pattern papers and solid card stock in pistachio, lilac, and sea glass. I cut the different shapes out with the Home Sweet Home Doodle cuts. This set includes 18 metal dies that are perfect for creating the intricate details like window frames, doors, flower boxes, potted plants, etc. (links below).

To decorate it, I used some mini icon stickers (they were the perfect size!). I added the snowman, penguin, and 2 adorable children peeking through the windows. Next came some shape sprinkles. I chose a few snowflakes for the roof, a heart over the front door, and a lilac enamel dot for the doorknob. And for a little sparkle, I added some mini jewels along the scalloped roofline and glitter to the snow.

Inside, I covered the chipboard pages in pretty 6x6 and 12x12 pattern papers. On the layout above, I added the snowflake print in the background, a journaling card, and some fun die cuts from the Odds & Ends.

Here, I used with the other side of the snowflake paper. It's so cute filled with winter animals like polar bears, bunny rabbits, penguins, and seals. Next, I made a flippie with space inside for 2 photos. I used a sweet 4x4 card from the Spot of Snow paper and tucked a few die cuts behind it.

What a great page for pictures of playing in the snow! In the background, I added the Winter Wonderland print filled with tiny snowflakes, then made 2 photo mats out of the pretty plaid titled All Bundled Up. The title is a sticker from the This & That sheet, the snowflakes are shape sprinkles, and the snowmen and penguin are from the Odds & Ends.

Ooooo, I love this gingham print called Ice Crystals. It's so beautiful and looks great with the die cuts from the Bits & Pieces. I chose a scalloped circle and cut it in two, placing one half on either side of the photo mat. Then, I added the snowflakes on top.

Isn't this page pretty? The lilac card stock is such a great color and makes the perfect background for the snowflake shape sprinkles and the cute snowmobile die cut. The "winter" tab and the scalloped border are stickers from the This & That sheet.

This little winter album would make a great keepsake for photos of your snow covered home, a ski vacation, the beautiful mountains, a cabin, tubing, sledding, building a snowman, and sweet memories with loved ones.

It would also make a great gift idea. Give it to someone for a birthday, a thank you present, or ... as a fun way to tell someone you're taking them on a vacation!

On this page, I used the playful lilac polka dot print called Snow Day. Then, I added some wonderful die cuts and embellished one of the trees with lots of sparkling mini jewels. Love the gems!
