SNOW MUCH FUN BOX CARDS | with Kathy

I always love Doodlebug's winter collections, and Snow Much Fun does not disappoint!  The colors, the critters, and of course... the yeti, all of it is adorable!  And when I saw the coordinating Snow Cute Doodle Cuts, I knew I had to make some fun cards.  Take a peek....

When I saw the "it was love at frost sight" chit chat piece, I thought it would make a cute Valentine's sentiment.  I created 2 bears using the Snow Cute Doodle Cuts and put them in a snowy scene, along with the cute little birdie from the set.

I created a floating heart using a strip of acetate and one of the I Love Snow Shaped Sprinkles.  A fun tip when using the Doodle Cuts... if you want a "mirrored" image like my second bear, all you have to do is cut the bear pieces from the "wrong side" of your paper.

I finished the card with some Puffy Icon Snowflakes and some more Sprinkle hearts.  The bow on the bear's ear is from the Christmas Cocoa Doodle Cuts.

For my next card, I decided I wanted to use all of the other adorable critters in the Snow Cute  Doodle Cuts Set.  I looked through the Chit Chat pieces and found the "hello there" banner and thought it would be fun to create a just because card.

I created another fun snow scene, this time with some water for the adorable seal.  I cut all of the critters from the Snow Much Fun Coordinating Textured Cardstock pack.  I love Doodlebug cardstock, not only does it cut like a dream, but the colors coordinate perfectly with the collections!  I'm not sure which critter is my favorite, but it just might be that waving yeti!  How about you??  What is your favorite?

I can already tell that I'm going to be using these dies again and again! Be sure to stop by all this month for more Snow Much Fun inspiration from the Design Team.  And if you create any projects using the collection, be sure to tag Doodlebug on socials, we love to see your work!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek.

LOVE NOTES BOX CARD | with Kathy

Valentine's crafting is some of my favorite crafting and I'm having so much fun playing with the new Love Notes Collection.  The little icons are just the cutest!  I especially loved the love letter piece from the Odds & Ends and decided to turn it into a Box Card.  Take a peek...

As soon as I saw the I Love You print on the Secret Admirer paper I knew I had to use it!  I combined it with the hearts side of the Rose Garden paper and some Cherry Petite Prints to make my envelope. 

The Heart to Heart shaped sprinkles are awesome, I love their slightly wonky shapes!

I finished the card with some pieces from the Odds and Ends.  The little birdies are adorable!  Now for the fun part!  I created an SVG for this file and it is available exclusively in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop here!

Here is a tutorial showing how to assemble the card... it's really easy!

1.  Start by adding the decorative layers to the main body pieces of the envelope and the letter as shown.
2.  Add the triangle piece to the "V" piece to form the front of the envelope.
3.  Attach the sides to the front of the card, gluing the tabs inside, then attach to the back piece of the card.  The bottoms of the sides should be flush with the bottoms of the front and back pieces.
4. Fold the tabs on the insert back, add adhesive to the outside of the tabs.  Slide it into the envelope "box" and press to the sides.  I made the tabs flush with the back of the card.
5. This is the finished card.  There is also a print and cut sentiment piece that says Happy Valentine's Day. (see my finished card)

If you make one of these cards be sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Facebook and Instagram, we always love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
