BUNNY HOP SNOWGLOBE WITH SHAKERS | with Guest Designer Lisa Fonseca

Hey lovely scrappy peeps, today I'm sharing my last post for Doodlebug... for now... we'll see what the future brings :) I want to thank Doodlebug again and all the people in the team for these amazing three years, I have loved it :) For this project I created a snow globe using the new amazingly cute DIY Snow Globes. They are ready to fill and decorate, wooden Snow Globes ...just a such a cool idea.

I wanted to build a few layers with the Bunny Hop papers inside the globe. I ripped the papers and used foam tape to attach them together and create a dimensional scene. Then I added Doodle Pops and stickers.  I love the Doodle Pops since they are also dimensional a gave the whole scene a very cool look. I also added some shaped sprinkles and jewels.

For the filling and shaker part, I used the new super amazing Shakers. They come in all the Doodlebug colors and there are also shapes for different Doodlebug Themes. I used a few colors and put them into the globe, then closed it up from behind.

To add even more dimension, I added a few stickers on top of the glass and a few shaped sprinkle flowers on top of the globe, on the wooden frame. I think it's just so cute. The cool part is that you can always switch out the inside and create a new scene for any chosen theme.

I really recommend trying out the shakers, they are super fun to use. Thank you for stopping by and reading my posts from time to time. It's farewell for now, I hope you'll follow along my future adventures on my Instagram. See you... ;)

BUNNY HOP EASTER HOUSE | with Miguel

I love giving new life to wooden pieces and this time I used the beautiful Bunny Hop Collection to decorate this darling little house.

I started by painting with white paint and then I covered it with the papers from the collection.  I embellished with the Bits & Pieces  and Odds & Ends since they are perfect for creating cute scenes, below I will show you.

For the front of my piece I decided to use the Bunny & Friends Doodle Cuts, which are the most beautiful thing in the world haha. I cut several layers of foam and cardstock, then spliced and lined all around. This technique allows me to give the pieces a 3D effect,

This piece is perfect for decorating your home this Easter season, 

I say goodbye as always hoping that my work inspires you to continue creating!

BUNNY HOP TREAT BASKETS | with Niella

Hi crafty crew, we're hopping straight into March with another sweet and adorable collection for Spring and Easter: Bunny Hop! There are so many fun and super charming characters in this collection and the patterns are all so darling! Cuteness overload guaranteed! Let's get into my first project with Bunny Hop - good ol' goodie baskets!

For these baskets I've used the 12x12 patterned papers top left clockwise: bunny hop, bunnies & beans and everything Easter. And that wee baby basket is from the 6x6 paper pad called carrot patch! Hi there little cutie!
Each basket is filled with shredded pastel tissue paper which serves as a great filler with mini chocolate eggs.

To create the front pouch, I've just made it the same as the main basket, just cut it smaller by using the 6x6 patterned pad because this pad is scaled down and perfect for wee projects. Stitched paper strips make easy handles and I love using the contrasting patterns. To close the bottom, I've added machine stitching straight across. These baskets can lay flat as well. Perfect for sending as happymail.

I loved putting these together! Truth be told I could make dozens of these to gift! I loved decorating each basket with the icon and mini icon stickers and the collection's puffy stickers! It's all so super adorable. The bits n pieces ephemera cemented how sweet this collection is. It's one thing to see it, but holding it is something else!

Thank you for popping by today! I hope you've had a crafty hit of inspo! Don't forget to tag us in on your socials - we're looking forward to seeing your next Doodlebug Design project! Until next time; doodle dee!

HIPPITY HOPPITY CARROT TREAT HOLDERS | with Wanda

Hi Doodlebug friends! Wanda here on the blog today to share some cute Easter carrots I made with the Hippity Hoppity Collection! Just in time for some Spring and Easter crafting. These fun paper carrots would be great at each place setting for your table, or little gifts for friends and co-workers. They are super easy to make and fun too! I filled my treat carrots with chocolate eggs and can't wait to give them away! CLICK HERE for the simple directions to make the shape/template. This would also be a really fun project to do with the kids!

I used orange and green papers from the Doodlebug Floral Graph 6x6 Paper Pad and the Swiss Dot 6x6 Paper Pad. I used a carrot die cut from another company to make the greens on top. I glued the greens inside before I sealed up the top end of the carrots. 

I used pieces from the Hippity Hoppity Collection Chit Chat pack to decorate the front of the carrots. I used some Chunky Twine, Bunny Sprinkles, and small green clothespins to add at the top for more decorations. 

 I added stickers to the front and a few mini jewels too, for a little bit of shine!

I used my paper crimper to crimp the top and bottom of the carrots and add a decorative element. Crimping also secures the tape holding them together. Here is the carrot in my hand to show you the size and scale. I used the full 6x6 sheet of paper for each one. 

 Here's a close up of the top portion!

 

If you don't want to put them at each place on the table, I think they would be cute in a basket with some Easter grass as a cute decoration.

Wishing you a happy Spring and a happy Easter! I will see you back here soon, but until then, happy crafting!

HIPPITY HOPPITY EASTER SURPRISE | with Miguel

The Easter season is undoubtedly one of my favorite seasons. Rabbits, eggs and colors fascinate and inspire me a lot when creating, so I used Doodlebug's Hippity Hoppity Collection to make this beautiful little box.

I made this with my scoring board, I love this tool, since it allows you to create your own custom box designs.  I created my box to fit some plastic eggs, then added some fun details! 

I decorated the box with some stickers from the Hippity Hoppity Icon Sticker sheet.  I also created a fun little card to go with my box... so fun!

I finished my project with some shaped sprinkles.  Then I filled my egg with some yummy chocolate and added it into my box!  

See you soon and thank you very much for stopping by.

BUNNY TRAIN | with Kathy

I've always loved Easter Crafts.  There are so many sweet little images... bunnies, chicks, eggs... they are hard to resist.  Add some Doodlebug icons, colors and embellishments... it's cuteness overload!  I mixed it all together and came up with this fun project... take a peek...

So you're probably asking... "Is it a card, or is it a decor piece?"  The answer is YES!  The project started as a box card, with the bunny riding the train.  I loved how he turned out but then I thought, he needed some friends.

So... I added a couple of train cars with eggs and a chick!  These two parts are also box cards in their own right that are attached with simple little strips that connect the cars.

You can make this strictly as a home decor piece, but you could also make the 3 separate cards, which fold flat, mail them to someone special along with the strips and instructions on how to attach them!  That would be such a fun surprise!

Want to make one to send?? (or keep??)  I created an SVG file for this project.  It's available exclusively in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop here.

Below are some simple assembly instructions....

1)  To assemble the bunny "engine" first cut the pieces.  The sentiment is done as a print and cut.  Add the embellishments to the layers as shown.
2) Attach the train pieces together by gluing one of the small side pieces to the front and back as shown. (on the side with the biggest wheel)
3)  Attach the tab of the bunny insert to the inside of the side piece you just glued, the tab should be flush with the back fold.  Add the other side piece to the remaining tab on the insert.
4)  Attach the tabs of the 2nd side piece to the front and back train pieces.

5)  This will form the engine part of the project.
6)  Next, cut the pieces for the 2 train cars.  Both cars are assembled in the same manner, I am showing the egg car.
7)  Add the embellishments to the pieces as shown.  Fold the "box" into shape, glue with the tab inside.
8)  Add the car sides & wheels to both sides of the box you made in step 7.  Align the top edges and center.

9) Add glue to the tabs on the insert.  Slide into the box, and press the tabs to the sides to hold.  Repeat this general process for the other car
10)  The cards can now all fold flat and can be mailed if you wish.  To attach the cars and engine together, there are 2 small tabs included in the file.  Fold both score lines.  Glue one tab to the engine, and one to the first car to attach.  The strips have a hole in the center if you wish to add a brad, I added a glitter sprinkle enamel dot.  Repeat with the 2nd strip and the 2 cars.  Done!

I hope this card brings a little sunshine to your day!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
