HOMETOWN USA PREVIEW WEEK - DAY 2 | with Tonya

We are back with another sneak peek of our new Hometown USA collection!  Today's project features the new Festive Floral Doodle Cuts.  Tonya created a couple of darling cards using the new dies, take a peek...



The first card uses papers and coordinating cardstock from the Hometown USA Collection.  The Dies are designed so that you can also make a shaker. and Tonya added some of the new Land that I Love and Lily White Shakers to her jar. The Land that I Love Shakers are so fun, they are a mix of stars, flags and hearts!

To show the versatility of the dies, Tonya also created this bright and cheery card featuring papers, textured cardstock and Spring Flowers Shakers from the Bunny Hop Collection.  There are so many ways to use these Doodle Cuts!

Be sure to stop by tomorrow as we continue our fun Hometown USA preview week!

BUNNY HOP - BUNNY ACCORDION MINI ALBUM | with Kathy

I'm excited to be kicking off a month of Bunny Hop inspiration!  Doodlebug's Easter collections are always a favorite, and ADORABLE, and Bunny Hop does not disappoint.  I combined the collection with a couple of the coordinating SVG Files to create this fun Easter-themed mini.  Take a peek...

I started with the Bunny Hop Bunny Boy and the Bunny Hop Fancy Egg SVG files which can be found in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop.  I used them to create the base of my album using chipboard, textured cardstock and papers from the collection.  I used the chipboard to give it sturdiness, and so that it would stand up for display.  I played with the Egg file in my Silhouette to create a shaker for my album cover.  I filled the egg sections with the new lily white and bunnies and chicks shakers.  My title is from the Chit Chat Pack.  I just love the overalls on that Bunny!


Since the album stands on it's own, I wanted the back to look as cute as the front for display.  I added the overalls on the bunny back, and I just couldn't resist a little pom-pom bunny tail!  To keep my album closed when standing, I added a ribbon tie that closes with some Velcro Dots.

The album is a simple accordion style for the pages.  I copied egg shapes in Silhouette, overlapped them slightly and welded them together.  I cut them from the coordinating textured cardstock pack.  All that was left was to decorate the pages!


I started by covering each "page" with papers from the 6x6 Pad using a stitched egg shaped die from my stash.  I then added photo spots (rectangle & stitched dies) and decorated them using all the fun goodies from the collection... This & That Stickers, Odds & Ends, Icon Stickers, Shaped Sprinkles, Chit Chats and Bits & Pieces.   I love an accordion album because you can use both sides of the pages.  Here are some close-ups of the first "side" of the pages.  


I made a couple of pockets by cutting another egg, cutting it in half and gluing around the edges to form the pocket.  This made a perfect spot to hold a tag from the Bits & Pieces for journaling. The tag toppers were done using ribbon from my stash and my tiny-attacher stapler.


Here is the other side of the album pages...




I'm so happy with how this turned out... it's always great when things turn out like you envisioned!  I put together a quick video showing the album in motion, you can see it on my YouTube Channel here.

Be sure to check back all month long for lots of Bunny Hop projects from our Design Team!  If you've created any Bunny Hop Projects, make sure to tag Doodlebug Design on socials, we always love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

SNOW MUCH FUN CARD ASSORTMENT MINI ALBUM | with Conny

Hello there, It's Conny and I'm excited to share my latest mini album with you, created using the Snow Much Fun Collection. I incorporated acetate and the Snow Much Fun Assortment Cards and Envelopes to make it simple and easy.



I began with two chipboard pieces. One was used for the back cover while the other was for the spine. For the front cover, I used acetate. I wrapped the chipboard with blue polka dot side of the Snow Much Fun paper and added a little extra detail by stitching it.


To create the acetate cover, I cut a piece measuring 6.5" X 6" and scored it at 1.5". I stitched it to the outside of my spine using a sewing machine to keep it together. However, if you don't have one, you can still use your favorite glue that dries clear. To adhere the back cover to the spine, I used a piece of white cardstock measuring 4" X 6", scored at 1.5", and added the 1.5" to adhere it to the spine using your favorite glue.





I used cards and envelopes to create pages for my project. To hold the cards in place, I used hinges that measured 5" X 3". I scored them at 1" and 2". Additionally, I used another piece that measured 1" X 5" and scored it at 1/2". I adhered it to the middle of the first hinge and then placed the hinges in the middle of the spine.


I added double-sided tape to both sides of the hinges, then adhered the cards and envelopes to create pockets or flip-open designs.  Next I started the fun by adding embellishments and decorating! For the cover page, I kept it simple and used Hello Winter Doodle-Pops along with a few gems.



I can't wait to see what you all create using the Snow Much Fun Collection! Take care and see you all soon. XO, Conny.
