SNOW MUCH FUN WINTER CARDS | with Tya

Hello there Doodlebug friends! How’s the weather where you are? Here in Utah, it’s still looking a lot like winter – but that’s ok! I love winter! And to celebrate – I thought I’d whip up a few winter–themed cards using the adorable ‘Snow Much Fun” collection!

I used the card bases from the Cards and Envelopes Kit that coordinates with the collection. These six cards were super fun to decorate up with all of the goodies from the collection! Let's see what I made for you, shall we?

This cute card is one of my favorites of the bunch. I love that little peek-a-boo spot cut out of the card base. It was the perfect spot for the friendly Yeti on the Hello Winter Doodle Pop to wave hello. The card was decorated with some pattern papers from the 6x6 paper pad and the 12 x12 paper. Some pretty flocked tulle added some fun texture and interest to this page!


All of the snowmen had my heart, but this little fellow, with his little snow cone, was the perfect addition to this fun card that features some of the Odds and Ends and Chit Chat ephemera pieces.


Everyone in for a selfie! I simply adored this fun group shot with all of our polar pals that is from the Odds and Ends. I added a couple of more friends with the bunny and the seal popping in. They are stickers from the Icon Sticker sheet. The fun "Snow Happy Together" banner sentiment was the perfect saying for all of these happy friends!


This little ski buddy made his appearance next to some of the snow-capped mountains and a big "Nice to Ski You!" sentiment. I layered that sentiment - found in the Chit Chat ephemera over the top of the original die cut. It was more appropriate for a card than what was on there. Don't be afraid to layer up the ephemera and make it work for your specific project! I loved adding some additional sparkle with some stickles and the fun snowflake sprinkles found on the Snow Colorful Shape Sprinkles added a great splash of color and dimension to this wintery mountain card.


This file folder card was a joy to decorate up with the Winter Wonderland Shaker Pop! I mounted it on one of the tags in the Bits and Pieces. Some pretty snowflakes and a cute sticker banner sentiment from the This and That sticker sheet round this one out! Check out the pretty gems on the centers of the snowflakes - These are from the Mini Jewels.


This card makes me want to snuggle up in a warm sweater and drink some hot cocoa! One of my favorite card-making techniques is to layer up some of the Odds and Ends Ephemera and make a little smattering of icons. These snowy-themed icons look great mounted on some pretty glitter paper and some of the beautiful blue paper from the Textured Cardstock.


Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope that these cards have warmed your heart and inspired you to make a batch for your favorite pals. It's a great way to spend a cold, winter day! See you all again next time! Happy Crafting!

SNOW MUCH FUN BIRTHDAY & THANK YOU CARDS | with Karen

It has been absolutely freezing up here in Calgary - you know, the kind of cold that makes you wonder why you don't live somewhere else. But the good news is that this weather is the perfect crafting weather! Absolutely no guilt that I am sitting at the table crafting instead of being out and about.

  All-three-1 

And with Christmas behind us, it's a great time to top up my card stash. I have always loved making seasonal birthday and thank-you cards, so the weather, together with Doodlebug's new Snow Much Fun collection, are the perfect combination for the task.

  Odds-and-Ends 

These cards utilize the coordinating Cards & Envelopes together with some patterned paper from the 6x6 patterned paper pack for the bases. I did a bunch of layering of die cut pieces from both the Chit Chat and Odds and Ends packs to create each of the little scenes, using foam adhesive on some to add some pop.

  Sprinkles 

Um, can we just take a minute to admire how beautiful that snowflake paper is?!!! Okay, moving on...To finish off, I added some Sprinkles for some more texture and I was all finished.

  All-three-2 

I love how this set turned out! I have a feeling they will not last long in the card stash...in fact, one already found a new home for a January birthday in our family. So, if it is cold where you are, take it as a sign that the universe is giving you permission to craft! Not that we needed permission... :) Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,

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.
