FARMERS MARKET TINY ALBUM | with Jen

Doodlebug Icons are some of my favorite embellishments. Whether they are puffy, mini, or full size they make decorating a project easy and fun. With that in mind I made a Mini Mini Album.

The album measures 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" for the chipboard covers that I wrapped with the 12" x 12" falling leaves paper. The interior pages measure 4" x 4". I punched holes in both and used colored binder rings to assemble the album.

One some pages I expanded the page base 4" x 7" to include a flap for the 3" x 4" journaling cut-aparts from the collection. I also expanded a couple of pages to 4" x 6" to add the tags from the garden tags paper to the flap.

I matted the pages using the 6" x 6" paper pad. I decorated with Icon stickers, Mini Icons, and Puffy Icons.


I used some fun elements from the Bits and Pieces pack and some more tags from the tag sheet in the pockets. I used a couple of Doodle Pops and two tone ribbon to finish the book. 

Have a great day!

FARMERS MARKET FALL MEMORIES BASKET MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hey there friends! Today I have a bright and cheerful basket shaped mini album for you titled Fall Memories. I designed it with the colorful Farmers Market Collection and it makes the perfect little keepsake for saving photos of autumn, family, friends, a vacation, or Thanksgiving! 


I created this with my white Acrylic Basket Shaped Album, but you could easily use white cardstock or chipboard instead. On the cover, I filled my basket with lots of beautiful flower die cuts from the Bits & Pieces. Then, I added the "Fall" title from the Chit Chat and the cute smiling pumpkins from the Odds & Ends. 

If you look closely, you'll see a few adorable little bees from the Beehive Shaker-pops and lots of enamel shape sprinkles. My favorites! There are flowers and leaves from the Fall Flowers sprinkles and some enamel dots from the Fall Assortment. Love those red berries!


Inside, I added matching die cuts from the Bits & Pieces to the backside of those on the front cover. There are so many pretty flower and leaf shapes to choose from in the package. 


Above, I created a fold-out page, then added a cute flippie to the front made with a journaling card from the 12x12 Fall Floral paper. These lined cards are great for adding dates, events, locations, names, or notes to your albums.


Since fall is a time when people gather together and enjoy a good meal, I added some of the 4x6 inch recipe cards to my mini. They are so cute and the perfect size. The package includes 36 double sided cards that come in six different colorful designs.

Check out this cute pocket I created with the beautiful Farm Fresh gingham paper. I tucked a lined card and a 4x4 card from the Veggie Stick paper inside. You can use these for journaling or as photo mats.

Doodlebug has so many adorable images for fall. Above, I added the veggie stand die cut but there are also lots of autumn leaves, trees, pumpkins, flowers, veggies, dogs, cats, bees, ladybugs, and so much more!

The Farmers Market Collection is so fun and sure to put a smile on your face ... just like the cute vegetables above! I love the fall patterns and pretty colors and hope my basket shaped mini album inspires you.

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

FARMERS MARKET VEGGIE GARDEN PILLOW BOXES | with Karen

Every morning, my four-legged furry beast wakes me up with the sun for our 5:30am "walkies". But a funny thing happened this last week - it was clearly noticeable that morning walks have gotten darker and chillier. Fall is knocking on the door and answering the knock means the start of canning season, apricot and plum dumpling season, and all things spicy and comforting. And I am here for it!

All-three-1

Featuring the AMAZING Farmers Market collection for my post this week was the perfect way to kick off my seasonal celebrations! This collection captures everything that is wonderful about the Fall, in all the amazing Doodlebug colours we have come to expect. Bright, rich and spicy is everything I love about the season, and it's all wrapped up in this collection.

I decided to have some fun and play with the Veggie Garden Odds & Ends pack to decorate up some pillow boxes made as thank-you gifts.

Closeup-1

The start of my summer was met with a huge hail storm that wiped out my garden, so "harvesting" these cuties for the pillow boxes made up for missing out on this fun fall task! And I do have to say that sorting through the die cut characters to "harvest" the ones I wanted was the perfect way to heal a broken gardening heart! I simple layered them on top of each other to create some little scenes that were unique to each box.

Open-shot

I filled each with some cute mini fruit-flavoured candies, but the great thing about a project like this is that it can hold anything - a gift card, little piece of jewelry - whatever works for you!

All-three-2

With the addition of a little sentiment I printed out, these are all set to go! So if you are all ready for the Fall, grab this amazing collection and get started. And if not, grab it anyway - because like it or not, fall is knocking! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
