BUNNY HOP EASTER EGG CARTON ALBUM | with Traci

Hi everyone! Traci here and today, I'm sharing a new shaped mini album I made with the adorable Bunny Hop Collection and the Egg Carton cutting file. It's such a cute keepsake for your Easter photos and a great gift idea for someone special. Wouldn't this be a fun surprise tucked in an Easter basket?! 🐰🩷🧺

To make this, I started with the album's covers. I used my Silhouette machine to size the file to 6.75" x 4.75". I cut the shapes out of white acrylic, but you could also make them out of card stock or chipboard instead. Then, I covered the acrylic with pistachio Petite Prints in dot & stripe, plaid & polka dot, and solid. 

Next, I cut the eggs out of colorful 6x6 prints and added the bunny and chick mini icon stickers, flower die cuts from the Bits & Pieces, and the title from the Chit Chat. I 🩷 the bunny in her pink dress and bow!

On the inside, I cut 6 card stock pages to 6.5" x 3.5", giving me 12 total scrapbook pages to decorate. I covered each one in 12x12 and 6x6 pattern papers. Above, I created a fold-out page for extra photo space. On the front, I added the 3x4 card from the Chickadees print and inside ... more die cut pieces, the sun mini icon sticker, space for 2 photos, AND a print filled with bunny shaped Easter peeps!! 

This next page is covered in the 6x6 paper titled Bunny Hop. It's one of my favorites with its sweet images of chocolate bunnies, chicks, flowers, carrot cars, houses, and Easter baskets. The die cut is from the Chit Chat.

Here's another fold-out page. I covered the front in the pretty pattern paper titled May Flowers, then added die cuts from the Odds & Ends and Chit Chat. And, inside the fold out ... 

 ... a sunny yellow plaid print called Spot of Spring, more Odds & Ends die cuts, and space for 2 photos.

Time for a pocket page! I embellished the front with the This & That scalloped border sticker and a pretty bouquet of flowers from the Bit & Pieces. I added some Hello Spring enamel shape sprinkles on top for a little shine, then added a few 3x4 cards for journaling / photo mats.

This cheerful paper collection is perfect for highlighting pictures of family, friends, Easter baskets, coloring eggs, a church event, Sunday brunch, holiday decorations, an egg hunt, and photos with the Easter Bunny.

Speaking of the Easter Bunny, this Hippity Hoppity paper above is great! Their little faces are so funny!

In this photo, I added the pink side of the 12x12 May Flowers paper, the green Spring Sprouts paper, and the colorful floral side of the same May Flowers pattern, but ... in the 6x6 size! I love every layer.

I hope the Bunny Hop Collection and my fun mini album give you lots of happy holiday vibes! Easter is just around the corner (April 20th) and this project would be wonderful tucked inside a gift basket, or ... displayed in your home filled with memories. Happy crafting! 😊

OVER THE RAINBOW SPRING MINI ALBUM | with Niella

Hi there crafty friends! It's time to go deep into the forest to visit our gnome and woodland pals and see what they've been up to! They live just beyond the highest trees and Over the Rainbow just by the fresh stream of water and the softest meadow of flowers! They await your visit and here I have my 6x3 mini album designed with all the cuteness you ever did need to journal! If you want to see the whole album and each page, check out my video at the end.

I designed these 6x3 mini albums myself, and making each is a labor of love. They are so much fun and with the tuck spots and hidden areas, there's plenty of room for photos and journaling!  Even better, you can really stretch your 12 x 12 supplies! Look how adorable the cover is with the Gnome Sweet Gnome Doodle-pop!

These first three page spreads are magical and super adorable! Each page is designed for maximum cuteness overload - the ephemera packs and mini icon stickers are so darling, you'll never be short of options to use. The Over the Rainbow collection also comes with the Petite Print Assortment pack as well! 

Skipping ahead to the last three spreads, you'll see the adorable gnomes welcoming you to their paradise! Hi there cute little ones! So nice to see you - how cute is that wee red pocket and those darling mushroom cottages! I love to decorate each page and then double back to add the Shape Sprinkles and Puffy Stickers! So super cute!

Don't you just love seeing all the gorgeous tabs using the This & That sticker sheet!

OVER THE RAINBOW ADVENTURE MINI ALBUM | with Conny

Hello, crafty friends! It's Conny here from The Daily Life of Creativity. Today, I’m excited to share how I created a 4" x 6" mini album using the Over the Rainbow collection. This collection is perfect for March and spring projects!

To start, I used three pieces of chipboard measuring 4" x 6" for the covers, along with a spine piece that measures 6" x 1".   To cover the chipboard, I chose the Limeade Buffalo Check - Wood Grain paper from the Over the Rainbow Petite Print assortment, which measured 10 3/4" x 7 1/2". I left about 3/4" of space all around the chipboard, and for the spine, about 1/8". 

Next, I used double-sided tape to attach the paper to the chipboard. I then cut each corner at an angle, about 1/8" using a miter tool, and folded all the edges in over the chipboard. To cover the inside of the chipboard, I used the Shine Bright paper, cut to 9 1/4" x 5 3/4".

Next, I moved on to making the pages. For the first page, I created a pocket. I used the  Bubblegum Floral Graph paper, measuring 8" x 8". I scored it at 2" from the bottom, then cut at an angle about 1" in on the inside to create a folder-like look. 

For the second page, I used the  Spring Garden paper, cut to 6" x 12". I scored it at 4" and 8". The orange with white polka dots mats measure about 5 3/4" x 3 3/4", which can easily accommodate 3" x 4" or 3" x 5" photos.

On the third page, I used the Flower Garden paper, which measured 10" x 6". I scored it along the longest side (10") at 8" to create a side pocket. I embellished this page with a Magical word Chit Chat and Icon Stickers. I also added some fun tags from one of my favorite papers in the collection,  Shine Bright, along with mini icons and some sprinkles across the pages.

For the cover page, I matted it with the Over the Rainbow paper, measuring 3 3/4" x 5 3/4". I layered this with the Citrus Floral Graph paper cut to 5 1/4" x 3 1/4", and added a welcome tree from the odds & ends collection. I included the Hello Sunshine Doodle-pop and the adventure Chit Chat.

Lastly, I stitched my pages using my sewing machine along the spine, but you can also hand-stitch them if you prefer. Enjoy crafting your mini album!

OVER THE RAINBOW MINI ALBUM | With Traci

Hey guys! Traci here and today, I'm sharing a really sweet scrapbook that I made with the colorful and, oh so happy ... Over the Rainbow Collection! I designed the mini album in a circle shape with a flower in the center and little cut-out petals, so ... lots of cute pattern papers could show through. What a fun project for spring!

I created this with my new white Acrylic Circle Petal Album, but you could replicate the album with white cardstock or chipboard. The center of the cover is solid so I added the Spring Garden print, the Gnome Sweet Gnome paper, and the scalloped sticker from the This & That sheet. How adorable is that little cloud?! 

On the back, you can really see the album's shape and the cutouts. I added the rainbow from the Odds & Ends, which fit perfectly in the circle. Then, I chose the Happy die cut from the Chit Chat and the Family sticker from the This & That.

Inside, I added white card stock pages. Since this first page shows through the front cover, I created another flower using circle punches for the petals, lots of pretty 6x6 prints, and white paper for the center photo mat.

Next, I covered the rest of the pages in 12x12 and 6x6 patterned papers. On the page above, I added the rainbow scallop border sticker (This & That), a rainbow die cut (Odds & Ends), and 2 sweet little clouds from the puffy stickers. They're so cute!

Then, I created a flippie with a 3x4 card from the 12x12 Ladybug Picnic print. I added the Memories sticker on the front and the fun 6x6 Sprinkles of Color paper inside. What a pretty spot for 2 of your favorite photos.

I love adding pockets to my albums, so I cut one of the circle pages in half to create this one. I added the scalloped border sticker to the top edge, the Memories and ladybug die cuts, and a few puffy hearts.

Inside the pocket, I tucked in a journaling card from the 12x12 Mini Mushrooms print and some adorable tags from the 12x12 Just For You paper. You could use the back side of these for journaling or extra photos.

Here's a close-up of another fun page. I added the fence die cut from the Odds & Ends, then layered some flower shape sprinkles on top. I love the hints of shine the enamel shapes add throughout the album.

I had so much fun making this sweet little scrapbook and I love the Over the Rainbow Collection! With its bright happy colors and super cute images ... this collection is sure to brighten your day. 

If you'd like to recreate this scrapbook, the acrylic album and instructions are  available in my shop today. Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a great day! 😊

6 X 8 MINI ALBUMS - RECAP XOXO ALBUM | with Tarrah

Today, I have a recap of my love themed Doodlebug Design 6" x 8" album using the Bubblegum color album together with the gorgeous Lots of Love collection. My favorite part of my album would have to be the front cover, I just love pink, red and white together and how can you go past that cute teddy bear with the balloons right?

Some detail photos below of the front cover.

I loved that I could add some detail to the name plate on the spine.

My front page has a heart cut file on it with some papers backed behind the cut file. I added my title and a banner to begin the theme of my album.

Below is the 'Sweet' themed double spread I created using an album chipboard cover and some album pocket pages. The pocket pages are perfect for adding small photos and smaller embellishments.

The spread below features one large pocket page on the left with a jar of hearts cut file and the right hand side holds a photo mat and some embellishments from the die-cut packs, Chit Chat, Odds and Ends and some This and That stickers.

The below spread has the pocket page on the right with all of the hearts added and the left hand side holds a large photo with some Chit Chat and Odds and Ends die-cuts.

The right-hand side pocket on the page below holds some sweet Valentine's cards and love notes my partner and I have exchanged, because of the whole letter theme for this spread, I just had to use the envelope/delivery embellishments.

The 25 Things I Love About You journal card was the perfect addition to my album, I was able to write down 25 things that I love about my partner and I love that we can look back on this in the future to remind us.

The below spread is my floral spread, I loved adding a few flowers to this spread in the form of a mixed size pocket page.

I loved adding elements like machine stitching and cut files to my album, I love that the machine stitching adds some texture along with Doodle Twine and I love how cut files really help with designs and filling pages.

I absolutely LOVE anything to do rainbows so I had to feature a rainbow page. The below chipboard cover features a photo on a photo mat with some rainbow embellishments and I created a pocket to be able to pull out that might hold extra photos and/or journaling.

Thank you so much for stopping by today to see the recap of my 6" x 8" album! I hope you get the chance to add some memories and pretty things to your album, we would love to see yours! Make sure to tag Doodlebug on socials so we can see! Happy creating!
