BUTTERFLY KISSES ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE LAYOUT | with Tya

Hi there, crafty friends! I'm so excited to share my latest design team project! This time around, I decided to do a layout featuring the stunning new Butterfly Kisses collection! The bright, pretty colors and whimsical icons were the perfect match for these sweet photos of my daughter. With bright florals, sunshine, and rainbows galore, this layout came together like a breath of fresh spring air - pure happiness on a page! 

Here's a full look at my layout. I  started with the Garden Gingham paper as my base and then added a small border of Bubblegum Textured Cardstock and white cardstock to build my layout. I also added the soft blue Rainbow Skies paper behind the photos. The bright and cheerful Sunny Days paper, added across the layout, adds the perfect pop of sunshiny yellow. I had so much fun embellishing the layout using lots of ephemera from the Odds and Ends, Chit Chat, and Bits and Pieces packs! 


Just look at this sweet corner of my layout- it's bursting with charm! I layered a mix of die cuts, twine, and Puffy Stickers on this section. For fun, I added a twine trail behind the beautiful butterfly. The "You're so Sweet" speech bubble and a cluster of happy flowers with a cute button center make this so fun! How adorable is the smiling little ladybug? She is from the Puffy Stickers as well. These are all the perfect touches to highlight my photos.


This top right corner is bursting with happiness! I tucked in the sweetest rainbow and sunshine from the Odds and Ends pack, layering them behind the photo for a playful, whimsical vibe. The bright blue button tied with twine adds a soft, handmade touch to the cloud, and a cheerful floral cluster paired with an orange butterfly brings in even more color and joy. I also added a darling little dragonfly Puffy Sticker to pull in some more dimension.. It's like a garden party right on the page! 


This section of my layout brings all the sweetness together with the perfect title and journaling. I used the "absolutely adorable" die cuts from the Chit Chat as my main title - it couldn't be more fitting for these precious photos. Just below, I added some typewritten-style journaling strips to capture the heart of the moment, sharing how this everyday snapshot perfectly showcases my sweet girl. A scalloped floral border sticker from the This and  That Sticker Sheet and a small strip of green Textured Cardstock add playful texture and color, tying everything together with that signature Doodlebug charm!




Thank you so much for stopping by to take a closer look at my layout! I had such a wonderful time creating this page with the Butterfly Kisses collection - it truly is a breath of fresh air with its vibrant colors, happy icons, and sweet sentiments. I hope this project has inspired you to pick up this adorable collection and use it to capture and celebrate your own special memories. Happy Crafting!

BUTTERFLY KISSES HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOX | with Miguel

When I see items that remind me of Doodlebug products, I love to make little boxes to go with them! Today, I made this box using the cardboard technique and decorated it with the Butterfly Kisses collection.  The box holds a fun little gift!

I made a decoration with garden doors and added Odds & Ends to bring my little box to life. I love how the box looks!

I also used Puffy Words, the new Doodlebug product, to place the phrase Happy Birthday on the acetate. I love the result.


When you open the garden doors, you can see the gift inside the box: a flower-shaped glass
that perfectly matches the collection!. I placed mini jewels in the center of the flower to give it a
special touch.






I'm signing off as always, hoping you enjoy my work and find it inspiring! See you soon.

BUTTERFLY KISSES HELLO PRECIOUS GIRL LAYOUT | with Nathalie

The new Butterfly Kisses collection just landed at my doorstep, and I am so excited to use to document some of my most favorite memories.   This collection is bright, fun, and just gorgeous!  Let me show you what I created with it!


I love how this layout came together, it was so easy to mix and match pieces to bring the design to life with a touch of whimsy.


I had this idea of creating a sort of flap for the page.  So, I started by trimming the Rainbow Skies paper by about an inch, then I trimmed a corner of the Garden Gingham paper;  I scored about 1/4" from the long edge to form the triangular flap. I secured the back of the flap to the back of the paper before adhering it to the teal cardstock.


The small scalloped border under the flap helps to soften the edges.  I love the tags in the back of the Happy Thoughts paper, so I am using one of them to house my picture.  I made sure to punch a hole at the corner of the flap so thar I could tie the tag and flap together in place.


I chose to add two floral clusters to the left and right of the top of the tag.  My idea was to have similar elements so that they balance the page.   I also added a few sprinkles and butterfly stickers as if they were creating the bow on the tag.


To finish my page, I combined pieces of Chit Chat with the new Puffy Words to create my title at the bottom of the page.  I added a few stickers to bring the floral cluster look at at smaller scale to this end of the page. 

I hope this inspires you to get creative with the new Butterfly Kisses collection!! XO
