COLOR ME CRAFTY DISC BOUND ALBUM | with Niella

Hi crafty friends! I am so excited to show you my latest project using the brand new Color Me Crafty collection! If you love color, crafty icons, fun elements and all the things, you will adore this amazing collection.  The colors remind me of Caboodles, Polly Pocket and holds so much fun!  Stay tuned to see my video showcase of my sweetiful 6x4" disc-bound mini album! Each page is a delight!

The front cover actually was the last page I created! I could not decide what to do until I came across this pile of photos ephemera piece in the odds & ends pack.  It looks perfectly paired with the "memories" layered Doodle-pop doesn't it! To elevate the cluster, I added some mini icon stickers. So cute!

To create the ticket shaped pages, I've cut the pages to 6x4 and using a 3/4" circle punch, I notched the top and bottom centers and each corner.  Easy peasy! Then once I have my eight page bases, I've then gone ahead and decorated them with stitching, layering, building clusters and sprinkled crafty goodness through out! With so much paper goodness in each Doodlebug collection, you'll be spoilt for choice.

Thank you again for visiting crafty crew! I hope you found some inspiration today! Please remember to tag Doodlebug Design in your Socials when you create with our products so we can all admire your creativity! We love seeing your creations! Until next time; doodle dee!  Enjoy my video showcase!

COLOR ME CRAFTY SMILE GIFT CARD HOLDERS | with Karen

Like many of you, I am a sucker for anything retro! Instead of making me feel old, classics like a Polaroid camera or classic cars just make me smile! So when I saw the new Smile Doodle Cuts, I knew that it was going to be the main feature of the first project I made with the all new (and adorable) Color Me Crafty collection!

I actually decided to see if there was a way that I could modify the die cut a bit to serve as both a gift card holder and card. And actually, it turned out to be incredible easy! First I started by using a variety of prints from the Color Me Crafty 6x8 patterned papers together with some textured cardstock in Swimming Pool and Dolphin to create the die cut as shown.

I layered everything up and got the pieces glued in place. Then I dug into the Bits and Pieces pack to find some flowers I could use to embellish the camera. Can we all just take a minute to admire how pretty these flowers are?

Then I cut 2 additional pieces of the main camera shape - both out of 6x8 patterned paper.

Using the first piece, I rans some liquid adhesive around the side and bottom edges, gluing this to the back of the full assembled camera die cut and creating a little pocket for the gift card in the back.

And them, I just folded a piece if textured cardstock that was slightly smaller in length than the side of the camera and glued that to the back of the pocket I created. Finally, I added a bit more glue and added the 3rd piece I had cut out of the main shape to glue on the back, creating a little card that can open and close.

I really love how these little gift card holders turned out. I think that even if you are not a fan of everything retro, these would make you smile. Give them a try and let me know! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,

COLOR ME CRAFTY CAMERA MINI BOOK| with Miguel

The long-awaited moment has arrived: working with the collection that best represents us!   Color Me Crafty is a beautiful collection, full of color and lovely crafty designs. Today I worked with the Smile Doodle Cuts, creating a mini album to document those fun crops and how much fun we had.

This was made with Color Me Crafty Solid assortment, as this product has the perfect color combination. I layered cardstock and foam to add dimension, and also lined the edges of the pieces for a better finish.

For the inside pages, I die-cut from the 6x8 pad since the designs are smaller and are perfect for the size of the album; I then decorated with some of the cut apart cards from one of the sheets in the collection.

 

Some of my favorite products for decorating are the Puffy Icons because they give projects a spectacular shine and make them look very original. Look how beautiful my cover looks in the photo!

Thank you for reading!  Have a great day!
