No one does cute like Doodlebug Design. Yup. I said it. And I stand behind it. Doodlebug characters are the best in the best in the business. And every time I pull out my Doodlebug products, I smile. Every time. At the Zoo is a collection that is ALL about the characters. So for today's project, I wanted to make them the star of the show.
I decided to make a set of explosion pop-out cards featuring some of the cute animals in this collection. It's been awhile since I made this style of fun fold card...too long! They really are fun. If you've never made one, do quick search for tutorials and you will find exactly what you need to make some of your own.
These ones feature a little belly band that slides over top of the base of the card. Because of the pop-out feature, the band helps hold the card closed. AND it give you a chance to use some of the cute animals from the Odds and Ends pack right on the band to create some fun dimension.
One the inside, I used some of the 6x6 paper to create the pop-out feature and then added some of the Mini Icon stickers to create a little scene at the top.
A few of the leaves on the inside and some of the Matte Sprinkles (I LOVE these sprinkles) also added a little more dimension.
I did also add some of the leaves and flowers from the Seaside Summer Bit's and Pieces collection on each of the bands. I am huge fan of dimension and these pieces created a little background for my characters (you have to love how everything Doodlebug coordinates so you can mix and match when needed) to create the depth that I was looking for.
So, whether you are looking for a birthday, thank-you or baby shower card - this cute collection is sure to make you smile while you are creating them and make your recipient smile when they receive them! Doodlebug is the best! Thanks for stopping by!
