BUNNY HOP HELLO MINI ALBUM | with Conny

Hello crafty friends!  Conny here from The Daily Life of Creativity, and today I’m sharing this fun and colorful mini album created with the Bunny Hop collection from Doodlebug Design. This album is full of bright colors, sweet details, and lots of layers, and it came together pretty quickly. If you’d like to see the full process, be sure to head over to my YouTube channel.

To get started, I used two pieces of chipboard measuring 8 1/4 by 5 1/2 for the covers. I wrapped the chipboard using papers from the Bunny Hop collection, specifically Bubblegum Floral Graph and May Flowers, trimming those down to 7 by 9 3/4 so they would wrap nicely around the chipboard. For the inside of the covers, I used the Petite Print Bubblegum Gingham Linen and trimmed those to 8 1/4 by 5 3/8 to cover the inside cleanly.

For the spine, I used a piece of acetate measuring 8 1/4 by 3 1/2. I adhered it using double-sided tape, adding about 1 inch of adhesive on each side and attaching it directly to the chipboard covers. I love how this creates a clear spine where you can still see all those fun polka dots peeking through. Once the acetate was in place, I added the inside matting paper on top to cover the adhesive and finish off the inside.

On both sides of the album, I created a waterfall-style layout using five pages per side. Each page measures 6 1/2 by 4 1/4, and I scored along the 6 1/2 inch side at 1/2 inch to create the flap. I started placing the pages about 1/4 inch from the top and layered them down to create that cascading effect. For this album, I wanted a lengthwise design, so the top pages open to the left and the bottom pages open to the right, but you can definitely adjust the direction depending on how you want your album to flow.

To decorate, I used 3 by 4 cards on the front of the waterfall sections and added embellishment clusters along the sides and bottom for extra dimension and interest. On the inside, I left the spaces open so they can easily hold 4 by 6 photos, making this album perfect for documenting spring or Easter memories.

I love how playful and happy this album turned out, and the Bunny Hop collection really makes it so easy to layer patterns, colors, and textures together. Don’t forget to check out the full process video for all the details.  I hope this inspires you to create something fun and colorful today.

BUNNY HOP ACRYLIC MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hello friends! Happy spring!  Despite the pollen, I'm loving everything about this change in seasons and the beautiful flowers are my favorite part!  That may be one reason I was inspired to add lots of pretty flowers to the cover of my latest acrylic mini.  

For this album, I used the Bunny Hop collection and one of my Artsy Albums acrylic albums.  This is my tabbed album and all of the pages are clear, so it was perfect for layering all of the Bunny Hop prints and die cuts.  For the cover, I added some floral pieces from the Bits and Pieces and topped them with shape sprinkles called Hello Spring.  Look at the pretty shine in the photo below!

I love the Hello Sunshine doodle-pops so it deserved a spot front and center on the cover! Doesn't that little smiling face just make you happy?

The photo above allows you to see all of the pretty layered prints on the clear pages. The photo below shows how I layered the bubblegum pink side of the May Flowers sheet with the adorable dot print called Spot of Spring.  A few odds & ends die cuts finish up the page and look so sweet next to the colorful photo mat. 

My favorite sheet in this collection is the May Flowers print, so I cut a larger piece for the next page and layered another Spot of Spring photo mat on top.  The tab sticker from the This and That stickers adds a pop of bright bubblegum pink to the page, and I just love that basket of flowers.  I want to find one just like it for my house!

I included a sheet of Lily white wood grain petite prints on the next page so that I would have a neutral base for more flowers and the adorable journaling card.  I made the card a flippie so it actually lifts up to reveal 2 photo mats underneath.  That cute sunshine is an icon sticker!

To take advantage of the clear pages, I only added photo mats to the next page.  The same size photo mats are on the back of this page so that you can see the prints on the last page showing through.  Each of the tabs also has a sticker from the This and That sheet to add fun color across the top of the album.

Well I hope all of these pretty colors, sunshiny embellishments, and beautiful flowers have inspired you to create something pretty with Bunny Hop today!  

Until next time, happy crafting!

BUNNY HOP - EASTER LAYOUT | with Inessa

Hey friends! I’m so excited to share this sweet and colorful layout featuring the absolutely adorable Bunny Hop collection. This one is full of bright spring colors, playful details, and the cutest little handmade touches—it just makes me smile every time I look at it.

For my foundation, I started with the easter basket paper as my background. I love the pattern and colors on this paper—it sets the tone for the entire layout. To soften it a bit and create a space for my design, I layered a piece of lily white textured cardstock trimmed to 11" x 11". I distressed the edges to add some texture and dimension before adhering it down.

For my photo, I kept the layering simple but impactful. I matted it using two patterned papers,  spot of spring and may flowers. The combination of those colors adds just the right amount of warmth and really draws your eye to the photo. It’s such an easy way to make your picture stand out without overcomplicating things.

When it came to embellishing, I had so much fun mixing and matching! I used a variety of pieces from the odds & ends, chit chat, and bits & pieces packs to build out my clusters. I also added a few doodle-pops for extra dimension—those always bring layouts to life.

One of my favorite parts of this layout is the handmade bunnies. I created them using the bunny and friends doodle cuts die set, cutting them from lily white cardstock and adding in that soft dusty pink from the basics cardstock for detail. Then I used patterned papers from the collection to give them the cutest little outfits. They add such a fun, whimsical element and really tie the whole theme together.

For the clouds, I pulled in a coordinating petite prints plaid/polka dot paper, which adds just a subtle pattern without overwhelming the design. It’s one of my favorite tricks—mixing in those smaller prints to balance everything out.

And of course, I couldn’t finish without a little sparkle! I used a variety of sprinkles to add those final touches—placing them in the centers of the flowers and using eye-shaped sprinkles for the bunny eyes and the sun. It’s those tiny details that really make everything pop and give your layout that extra bit of personality.

I just love how this layout came together. It’s bright, happy, and full of little details that make it feel special. I hope this inspires you to pull out your Bunny Hop collection and start creating—don’t be afraid to mix patterns, layer textures, and add those handmade elements. That’s where the magic really happens.

Thanks so much for stopping by, friends! 💕
