FAIRY GARDEN MINI BOOK | with Ashley

Hi All! Today I am sharing a new mini album using the lovely new Fairy Garden collection. 

To put this album together, I started with several sheets from the 6 x 6 paper pad. I folded each sheet in half and added some stitching. I kept each page is a pocket for photo inserts. 

Also, I cut each page 1/4" shorter than the next in width so that all the pages cascade. I used a binder ring to complete the base of the album. 

Then, for the fun part of embellishing! I use lots of elements from the sticker sheets, Odds & Ends, Chit Chats and the shape sprinkles packs to decorate. 

Thanks for stopping by to see more details. Happy crafting!

FAIRY GARDEN BUGS & KISSES CARDS | with Kathy

I love to color.  Ever since I was little, coloring was a favorite activity.  A fresh new box of crayons... with all the fun colors (and built in sharpener!), not much could make me happier!  These days I've switched to Copics, but the joy is still the same.  The new Bugs & Kisses Stamps also make me very happy... the ladybugs, frogs, bees.... absolutely adorable! I spent a whole afternoon coloring these sweet little images.   Mixed with some papers from the Fairy Garden 6x6 pad and you have a recipe for some fun cards.  Take a peek...

For my sentiments, I used the Alex Alphabet Doodle Cuts.  I love the long, skinny look of these letters!  They are perfect for cards!  Here are some close-ups...

I always envision these cute little buggies hanging around a meadow of wildflowers, so I added some of the floral stamps from the Fairy Garden Doodle Stamp set.  My favorites are the tall holly-hocks!

And the little mushrooms are so fun.  I added some dots to the top of some of them using a white jelly roll pen.

And of course I needed at least one "punny" card!  That little bumblebee... could he BEE any cuter?

FAIRY GARDEN CREATE-A-CARD MINI ALBUM | with Shellye

The new Doodlebug fairies are loving their new home tucked inside this sweet card-envelope mini album! "Fairy Garden" is filled to the brim with mushroom houses, garden critters and of course, colorful fairy girls!

 I've taken a pack of assorted cards and envelopes, a few 6X6 papers and journal cards to create the pages of this chunky little mini.  I'm happy to share a quick little YouTube video of how I put the pages together, so I hope you'll check it out!

As you can see, I've stacked and staggered the cards and envelopes by shape and color.  In between the layers of those, I've also added sheets of 6X6 papers that have been folded in half.  Also, a couple of pieces of the 3X4 journal cards that were side-by-side and then folded in half.

The envelopes were slightly modified (shown in video) by cutting the closure flap in half so that it will open on both sides of the fold. I also cut away the flaps on a few of the envelopes.  Fill the pockets with tags and journal cards!

The pages were embellished with die-cuts, washi tapes, stickers, sprinkles and more!

For the longer journal cards, I folded them in half and then used a cute clip to hold it closed.  Leftover strips of paper were turned into tabs that I added to some of the smaller pages.  I love all of the staggers of colors and patterns popping out as you move throughout the album!

Again, I have a pretty short video on how I started with this album and a bit of the process of putting it together: YouTube Video.  I hope you'll give it a try!
