DOODLEBUG SHAKERS RAINBOW GIFT SET | with Tya

Hi there crafty friends! It was so much fun getting to play with the brand-new D.I.Y Snow Globes this month! I don't know about you, but it has been a little dreary in my neck of the woods and I knew I wanted to brighten things up so I used the super bright and happy "Over the Rainbow" collection and a few Doodle Pops from the "Bunny Hop" collection to create this fun little gift ensemble which includes a snow globe, a cute shaker lid container, and a whimsical Tag Flip!

To make the Snow Globe, I used the 6x6 Rainbow Wishes paper with the cloud background and layered up some Odds and Ends, and the cute "Hello Sunshine" Doodle Pop to make a little sky scene. I added some of the "Gnome Sweet Gnome" 6x6 paper and traced the base of the Snow Globe onto it. I then added it to my Snow Globe base and decorated that section with a cloud, a button tied with some yellow twine, and some cute yellow pom-pom trim to finish it up.

I used the Cupcake, Bubblegum, Ladybug, Tangerine, Bumblebee, Limeade, and Swimming Pool Shaker Balls to fill up the Snow Globe. Aren't they so much fun?

Next, I created this cute little container with a shaker lid! Believe it or not, this is made from a small Pringles Can and a 3-inch plastic ornament half to make the shaker lid. I fell in love with this little technique and can see myself making oodles of these! They are the perfect way to showcase all of my favorite Doodle Pops! They are so fun to fill up too!

To cover my Pringles can, I used a 4 1/2 x 10-inch strip of Over the Rainbow Stripe paper. I then added two of the decorative border strips from the Lucky Me paper. I added the "It's a Rainbow Kind of Day" die cut to the front of the can with some foam tape. I also added some cute yellow pom-pom trim to the top of the border strip along the bottom of the can. Cute colors abound here!

To make the lid, I added some lightweight chipboard strips behind the clouds on the "Hello Sunshine" Doodle Pop. This made it fit well in the dome. I added a 3-inch cardstock circle on top of the plastic lid and then glued the Doodle Pop down with hot glue. I added the Shaker Balls to the dome and then centered the dome on top of the lid. The dome is held onto the top of the lid with hot glue. This is so fun to shake up!

On the inside of the container, I did a quick little tag flip and featured some of my favorite pieces of the "Over the Rainbow" collection. It fit perfectly, ribbons and all, inside the container!

As you can see, the first tag on the page is a shaker tag that was decorated with some pattern papers, and acetate. The shaker balls were a great interactive element for the cover tag on this little flip!

Here are the tags I did! Lots of layering of 6x6 papers, Odds and Ends, Chit Chat, and Puffy Stickers!

Getting to play with the Snow Globe and Shaker Balls was such a delight and I am thrilled with how this little set turned out. I plan on giving it to a cute niece of mine to brighten her day! Thank you so much for spending a little time here on the Doodlebug Blog today! I hope you have the best day and we will see you all next time! Happy Crafting Friends!

PETITE PRINTS CAMERA MINI ALBUM | with Erica

Hello friends! Erica here and I am back with another project using the new Candy Stripe-Sprinkles and Plaid-Polka Dot Petite Prints!

 

I used both the 12x12 and 6x6 Petite Prints to create a super cute camera mini album! The base and inside pages were cut with a steel die from my stash! This die is adorable and is from Elizabeth Crafts.

 

Once the base and inside pages were cut it was time to put everything together and add lots of embellishments!

 

I created pockets with most of the pages to add even more photo mats and places to tuck in tags or journaling. I went with some pink binder rings to bind it all together and I just love how it turned out! It is so chunky and I love all the floral bits and ephemera that hang over the edges!

 

I added some tabs to some of the photo mats in the pockets so you can easily pull them out. On each tab I adhered different word stickers from the Over the Rainbow Collection.

 

Head on over to my YouTube channel for a quick walk through video of this adorable camera mini album using the new Petite Prints!

PETITE PRINTS MEMORIES LAYOUT | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna Lepper here today sharing a layout focusing on the new Plaid and Polka Dot 12x12 Rainbow Petite Prints. I paired it with the Over The Rainbow collection and pulled out the coordinating colors to match it. Here's my page:

Here are the colors I used: Swimming Pool, Bubblegum, Tangerine, Bumblebee and Citrus. To start, I cut two 12 x .5"inch strips of each color and then trimmed one strip down to three 4 x .5"inch and the other strip to four 3 x .5"inch strips. I wanted to be able to display both sides of the paper so I folded them in half at somewhat of an angle. I went ahead and set them aside and got to work on my background.

For my background, I took a piece of thick white cardstock and stamped the rainbow stamp from the Gnome Sweet Gnome stamp set using some Distress Oxide inks in coordinating colors. I chose Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin and Twisted Citron. I stamped the rainbow several times and then did some ink blending right over the stamped images. So pretty!!

I then traced a vertical line down the center of my page and lined up each folded paper along each side of it. I adhered each one down and then ran the page through my sewing machine. I love all of the texture that it added to my page. For my title, I chose a few pieces from the Chit Chat pack and popped it up on foam tape. I added it under my photo that I had matted using the 6x6 Paper Pad.

Next, I embellished tone on tone using the Mini Icons Stickers, Puffy Icons Stickers, Rainbow Sprinkles and the Spring Garden Shape Sprinkles.

I wanted a couple more pops of black that would match my title, so I stamped out a couple of phrases from that same stamp set on the top left and bottom right of my design. I also added in some tangled thread to match each color. Here's one last look at this colorful page.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way. Have you tried creating a simple stamped background or tried adding folded paper like this to your page? It's a great way to get lots of pattern or color onto your page. I've done it using a circular design and now a vertical line. It would be fun to do it on a diagonal as well! See you next time friends!

PETITE PRINTS YOU MAKE ME HAPPY LAYOUT | with Tarrah

The Doodlebug Petite Prints are so versatile and match every collection Doodlebug have designed! For this layout I used the Candy Stripe-Sprinkles Petite Prints 6 x 6 paper pad in bubblegum, swimming pool and bumblebee and also the large bubblegum 12 x 12 Candy Stripe paper for the background.

I took a die-cut and traced the outline of it onto each of the papers and then freehand cut them out. I then punched holes in each end and and tied some bows using twine between them all. I did this three times for each color and then adhered them to the white cardstock using craft foam.

I placed my photo horizontally on the right, overlapping the bubblegum and bumble bee die-cuts. I decided that the rainbow Odds & Ends piece would make a great title and added that to the top pink die-cut. On the top blue die-cut I placed the white cloud die-cut.

I then embellished my page using a tone on tone effect, I added the same color embellishments to match the die-cuts they were placed on. The embellishments I chose were relevant to my photo and help to tell the story of my photo also.

I trimmed down the white cardstock to roughly 11' x 11' and adhered it to the 12' x 12' Candy Striped paper. Lastly I stamped the date stamp.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Happy creating!

PETITE PRINTS IT'S A RAINBOW KIND OF DAY LAYOUT | with Tarrah

You would have to agree that everyday is a Rainbow Kind of Day right? Especially when you have gorgeous New Petite Print papers to work with!

I decided to cut out the 'It's a Rainbow Kind of Day' cut file from white cardstock and then I cut it out again using the New Petite Prints Candy Stripe-Sprinkles 6' x 6' paper pad. I then pieced all of the pieces together to create the pretty cut file. I used mainly the sprinkle side of the paper but I also flipped it to show the stripes on 2 of the letters in the Rainbow word.

I adhered the cut file using craft foam to the white Plaid-Polka Dot 12' x 12' paper, I trimmed this paper down and then adhered the whole layout to the red Candy Stripe-Sprinkles 12' x 12' patterned paper. I placed my photo in the top right corner to balance out the larger elements on the page.

I combined the gorgeous Over the Rainbow collection with the Petite Prints collection and love how everything co-ordinates! I added lots of gorgeous embellishments to the cut file and around my page as well.

In the centre of the 'O' I added the super cute Clover Doodle-Pop and you can see the detail in the rainbow where I added some enamel dots in corresponding colors.

I love how my layout turned out, I just love rainbows and color (who doesn't?) so this is definitely a favorite layout of mine! I hope you enjoyed reading about how I created it?!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy creating!

PETITE PRINTS RAINBOW LAYOUT | with Erica

Hey friends! Erica here with you today sharing a colorful 12x12 scrapbook layout using the new Plaid-Polka Dot Petite Prints and the Over the Rainbow collection!

I started with a fun rainbow cut file and backed it with petite prints in bubblegum, swimming pool, mandarin, bumblebee and citrus! For my layout base I used a piece of white textured cardstock trimmed down to 11.50x11.50 and matted it onto some Doodlebug Design bubblegum textured cardstock. Next I adhered the two layers to a piece of pattern paper from the Over the Rainbow collection.

I adhered the rainbow cut file to the top of the layout base and picked a title from the Over the Rainbow chit chat pieces. I popped up the title on foam adhesive and created little embellishment clusters on the left and right of the title.

I knew I wanted to add in some of the beautiful florals from the brights bits & pieces pack. I created 3 embellishment clusters around the rainbow cutfile. I added tiny puffy hearts to the center of each of the florals.

For my photos I created two photo strips and matted them onto the gorgeous rainbow stripe paper in the 6x6 Over the Rainbow paper pad. I adhered the photo strips to the right side of the layout and added the Good Times chit chat piece to the bottom. I love how colorful this layout turned out using the new petite prints and the Over the Rainbow collection!

Thanks so much for stopping by the Doodlebug Blog today! I hope you get some time to create with the new petite prints! Please tag Doodlebug Design on social media so we can see what you are creating! To check out my process video head on over to my YouTube channel HERE! Have a great day!
