12x12 Christmas Scrapbook Page with Doodlebug

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has a wonderful day filled with family, friends, laughter, and great food. It's time for me to share my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project and since Christmas is just around the corner, I made a 12x12 scrapbook page. It's 1 of 6 layouts that will make up tomorrow's brand NEW kit! These pages are perfect for photos of decorating a tree, Santa, a holiday show, and Christmas morning. 

12x12 Christmas Scrapbook Page Layout with squares, colorful patterns, gifts, elves, and trees

I designed it with the bright and colorful Oh What Fun Collection, and ... it was oh so fun! To make it, I chose the petite prints plaid and polka dot in limeade for the base, then added white card stock on top.

Next, I used a Marvy Uchida punch to cut 21 squares out of cute patterns from the 6x8 paper pad. The punch is 1 3/4" but you could also use a paper trimmer. I knew I wanted the design to be set on a diagonal, so I arranged the squares in rows with each row having one less square than the line above it.  

For the title, I cut the "Merry & Bright" words from the 12x12 Check the Halls paper and matted it with the red and white polka dot print called Here Comes Santa. Then, I made 2 photo mats with the same limeade plaid that I used for the base.

Time to embellish! I added lots of fun die cuts from the Odds & Ends. There are 203 pieces in the package so there are tons of great ones to choose from. I added colorful trees, gifts, elves, gingerbread, a bird, and some acetate stars / snowflakes. They're all so cute!

I hope this scrapbook layout and the fabulous Oh What Fun Collection gives you a little inspiration for your next project. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday filled with the warmth and happiness of the season. Happy Thanksgiving! 🧡

Hello friends! It's time for a peek inside this week's new scrapbook kit and this one is gorgeous!! It's a wedding mini album titled It Was Always You and it will be in my shop on Friday. This beautiful keepsake is perfect for photos of an engagement, dress shopping, a bridal shower, the rehearsal, the big day, and all the fun in between! Take a look ... 

Wedding Scrapbook Mini Album with flowers, champagne glasses, gifts, rings, and a bow

I designed this with the 49 & Market, One Perfect Day Collection that features pretty florals, delicate lace patterns, vintage text, and a sophisticated neutral color palette of blush, cream, taupe, and sepia tones. I also used a 6x8 inch gray album by Doodlebug Design.

On the cover, I added elegant papers, die cuts, and laser cut elements of pretty flowers, an oval frame, champagne glasses, wedding gifts, and gold rings. Then, I finished it off with a beautiful satin ribbon.

Inside, there are 20 scrapbook pages that include 1 fold-out page, 2 pockets, 1 flippie, and space for 40 amazing photos of the celebration.

What a special handmade book to document a love story and a couple's favorite wedding memories. Add pictures of the proposal, the ring, different venues, shopping for dresses and tuxedos, picking flowers, tasting cakes, and the bridal shower.

As the big day arrives, add photos of the wedding's location, family arriving, bridal party, guests, the bride and groom, the vows, toasts and speeches, cake cutting, the dance floor, the bouquet toss, and the final send off.

Here's a great page for just the groom. Add photos of him getting ready, his grandfather's vintage cuff links or watch, his crazy socks, and fun moments with his groomsmen.

Isn't this page beautiful? I love the large die cut. The pocket is a great space to save journaling cards, extra photos, or memorabilia like an invitation, place cards, love notes, your handwritten vows, wedding cards, receipts, a printed napkin, honeymoon arrangements, and tickets.

12x12 Fall Scrapbook Page with Bella Blvd

Hey crafty girls! It's time for my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project and today, I'm sharing a 12x12 scrapbook page that I made with two fabulous collections ~ My Life 365 and One Fall Day. This layout is fun, colorful, and perfect for photos of fall, Thanksgiving, and fun everyday memories! Take a look ...

12x12 Fall Scrapbook Page with leaves, hearts, bright colors, and autumn words

To make this, I chose the blueberry Bella Besties gingham and stripes paper as the base, then added white card stock on top. At the bottom, I added the November print from the My Life 365 Collection. I ❤️ this versatile collection and have used it in MANY projects (see the links below).

Next, I added the Fall Scramble acetate from the One Fall Day Collection to create texture in the background. I love all the autumn words. I made the journaling spot by punching a 3" scalloped circle from the Besties graph and dot in guacamole, and a 2.5" circle from white card stock. Then, I embellished with leaves and flowers from the One Fall Day Ciao Chip stickers.

On the right, I made 2 photo mats from the Besties graph and dot in McIntosh, added my photos (love that sweet girl!!), and embellished with more leaves from the Ciao Chip stickers.

In the center, I cut 2 thin strips out of the McIntosh graph and dot to create a section for more embellishments. Then, I decorated it with lots of Letter Scramble alphabet stickers, the adorable My Life 365 puffy stickers, and more Ciao Chip stickers.
