CANDY CANE LANE CHRISTMAS FRAME BOX | with Miguel

What would a Christmas be without those special handmade details? Today I made a box, it is a wooden box that will serve to document those special Christmas moments in frames I created for the sides.

The special thing about project is the pine tree-shaped cup that simulates a town center Christmas Tree at the top of the box. Such a fun idea, don't you think?

The entire project is decorated with Doodlebug's Candy Cane Lane Collection.

I say goodbye as always I hope you are inspired by my work. I take this opportunity to wish you a Happy New Year 2023 full of health and much success!

LET IT SNOW ORNAMENT & ENVELOPE | with Ashley

Hi All! Today I am sharing a new project made using the adorable Let It Snow collection. I decided to make a Christmas shaker ornament and coin envelope. 

The envelope was made using a 12 x 12 piece of patterned paper, cut down so it would wrap around the ornament. It has a Velcro closure. 

I used elements from the Odds & Ends and Chit Chat packs and the jewels to embellish the envelope. I included pops of red on the envelope like on the ornament. 

The ornament was made tracing out a globe shape on white cardstock and cutting out twice. This image was lined with acetate and turned into a shaker using foam tape and white and light blue sequins. I also added ladybug doodle twine so it can hang off a tree or be used as craft room décor. 

To embellish, I used doodle-pops and chit-chat elements from the collection. I wanted to add several pops of red to stand out against the white and clear backdrop. 

I hope you liked seeing some details from this project. Happy Crafting!

NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS DECORATED FRAME | with Shellye

I love to sit down with my Doodlebug Stamps, markers and just color the hours away!  After die-cutting the completed images (from the Night Before Christmas Stamp Set), I knew that I wanted to stage them on snowy hills, so I grabbed a wooden tray from my stash and got started:

My wooden tray measures 7"X18".  I first cut the blue snowflake paper to 7" wide and added it first.  From the Lily White Buffalo Check and the multi-snowflake papers, I cut the pieces as shown above.  I free-handed the shapes to form three different snowy hills.  The pieces were then layered on to the blue paper with foam adhesive to give dimension!

Next, I outlined the snowy hills with chunky twine and then staged the die-cut pieces and attached them with foam adhesive or glue. 

The sticker sentiments from the This & That Sticker Sheet were added to each cluster.

I finished the design off with various Sprinkles and Gems!  I would love to find a square size...maybe two...and create another collage to hang along with this one!  I just love the way it turned out :)  Thank you for joining and Merry Christmas Wishes!

NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS MERRY & BRIGHT WALL HANGING | with Jennifer

Hello Doodlebug friends. Can you believe Christmas is just a few days away? Today I'm sharing a custom piece that is a combination of a couple of projects I've done before so it may look a little familiar. This time, however, I used the Night Before Christmas collection.

The project's base was cut from wood. The ledge was made from a combination of wood and foam board to reach a 3/4" thickness. A cutting file was used for the two smaller houses on each side, and the windmill was designed in the Silhouette Designer program.

This wall hanging is full of fun little details. Here are some of them.

Two doodle-pop stickers were added to the Santa and his sleigh die-cut. One for his head and part of a stocking filled with toys to fill his sack. Chipboard or wood was used to reinforce all of the die-cuts.

I added some snowmen doodle-pops on either side of the piece. These are from an older collection but worked beautifully on the piece.

More doodle-pops and a wood snowflake were used to embellish the windmill. I used white paper frills and borders for even more detail.

The ledge was covered with some border strips and edged with twine. I always try to add a title to my pieces, and for this one, "Merry and Bright" seemed to fit. Just for fun, I added a wood bell, some more die-cuts, and sprinkles underneath the ledge.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and Merry Christmas! :)
