Build a Snowman Winter Scrapbook Album - Part 4

Hey friends! It's time for my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project and today, I have the last five pages of my Build a Snowman Winter Scrapbook. (If you missed my other posts, be sure to check them out here, here, and here.) I created this project with a 6x8 inch Doodlebug binder and the cute Winter Wonderland Collection.

Winter Wonderland Scrapbook Album Page with a fold-out, acetate snowflakes, gems, a pocket, and cute journaling cards

This first layout has lots of fun elements. I made it a fold-out page (seen on the left) and added large photo mats on the front and back, some acetate snowflakes from the Odds & Ends, and few sparkling mini jewels.

On the right, I created a little pocket out of white card stock. I added the scalloped "snow much fun" sticker on the front and some 3x4 cards inside that can be used as photo mats or for journaling (product links below).

But wait, there's more! I also made the front of the pocket a flippie and added a second scalloped sticker to match the one on the front. AND I created a second pocket inside with two little 3x3 cards for more photos!

These pages would be great for pictures of snowy days, building a snowman, sledding, your beautiful snow covered home or landscape, sipping hot cocoa, warming up by a fire, roasting marshmallows, and all your fun memories with family and friends.

Or ... you could fill them with pictures of winter vacations, gorgeous snow-capped mountains, a cozy cabin or ski resort, skiing with friends, or an Alaskan cruise.

This polka dot page is 1 of 4 colored cardstock pages that come in the album. I added the flowers and snowflakes paper, a cute flippie made with a 3x4 card, a photo mat, and a few Odds & Ends die cuts.

On the backside, I added white cardstock, 2 photo mats made from the striped paper, some die cuts, and the "Hurray for snow" sticker from the This & That sticker sheet.

I hope these layouts give you some fun winter themed ideas and you're inspired to create your own scrapbook with Doodlebug's 6x8 inch Mini Album. Until next time, happy scrappin'! 😊

NEW! Happy Little Moments Scrapbook Album Kit

Happy Wednesday! It's time for a peek into this week's 🐝 bee-utiful NEW mini album kit that'll be in my shop on Friday. It's titled Happy Little Moments and it's such a cute scrapbook for your "happy little moments" with family and friends. It has lots of sweet, positive sayings and it's so much fun to create. You're gonna 💛 it!

Happy Little Moments Scrapbook Album with bees, flowers, honey, and circle cutouts

To purchase the instructions for this album visit:

I made this with my Acrylic Peek-A-Boo Circles Album in black, which I also used last year in my Bunnies, Treats, & Easter Sweets Scrapbook. It's one of my favorite acrylic albums. It measures 8x8 inches and has two 1/8" acrylic covers. The front cover has circle cut-outs that allow the cuteness to "peek" through!

I also used the adorable PhotoPlay, Sweet As Honey 2 Collection. It's filled with bees, honeypots, daisies, beehives, sunflowers, and ... lots of happiness. 😊

Inside, there are 16 scrapbook pages that include 3 pockets, 2 fold-out pages, 7 flippies (how fun!), and space for 40 photos. So ... you can add pictures of happy everyday moments, springtime, gardening, celebrations, or new baby photos!

Here's one of the pockets. I added honeycomb shaped stickers and a scalloped border to the front, and inside ... lots of cute cards to use for journaling or as photo mats. Ohhh, how I love those little bees!

This scrapbook would make such a sweet gift idea for a birthday, Mother's Day, or ... just because! Give it to a friend, your sister, your daughter or granddaughter who's away at college, a babysitter, or a teacher.

I added some really fun details in this album. There's a cute tag with twine that extends off the page, tags with ribbon, a scalloped circle tab, and a fold-out flippie with several little pages.

This bee paper is so cute, I had to add a close up. All of those circles go great with the cut-outs on the front cover, don't you think?

And look how great this mini album looks on my clear Acrylic Display Stand. They BEE-long together! 😉 

My new Happy Little Moments Mini Album (kit & premade) will be available in my shop this Friday. Each page is cuter than the next and it's sure to put a smile on your face!  Thanks so much for stopping by the blog and have a great day!

Valentine's Day Scrapbook Album with Lori Whitlock


Hey friends! Today is Lori Whitlock's February Blog Hop and my blog is the first stop on the hop. But b
e sure to visit Lori's site too because she has a sale and more great products for you!

For my project today, I made this L🩷VE mini album that's perfect for Valentine's Day photos. I used one of Lori's cutting files called Heart Stacking Card Dots (link below) to replace the O in LOVE with a heart. She has many of these "stacking card" files and they're all pretty fabulous!

Valentine's Day LOVE Scrapbook Mini Album with hearts, rainbows, and cute clouds

To make this, I cut the covers out of white acrylic but you could use cardstock or chipboard instead. I made the back piece first using a rounded rectangle shape in my Silhouette software and resized it to 10.5" x 4.25". Then, I sized the letters L, V, and E (Impact Font) to fit within the back cover shape.

Next, came the acrylic heart. I sized the shape to fit within the space, then
welded the letters and the heart all together to create my front cover.

Using card stock in red, pink, yellow, and white I cut the heart's pieces out and stacked them on top of one another. Is it just me or is there a slight 3D effect happening? Lol! Then, I decorated the album with the Doodlebug Design, Lots of Love Collection (links below).

Here's a look at a few pages inside the album ...

I covered each of the cardstock pages in colorful 12x12 and 6x6 pattern papers. I added different sized photo mats for interest and embellished with lots of cute die cuts (links below).

What a pretty page for photos of you and your sweetie, the littles or grandlittles, friends, a beloved pet, or your parents. This album is perfect for photos of anyone that's special to you.
