BUNNY HOP - EASTER MINI ALBUM | with Inessa

Today I’m so excited to share a sweet and colorful Easter mini album I created using the adorable Bunny Hop collection. I honestly couldn’t resist this one—the mix of soft rainbows, fresh spring florals, and the cutest little bunnies and chicks completely stole my heart. It just feels like sunshine, new beginnings, and all the happy vibes of the season.

For this project, I decided to create a 3.5" x 8" mini album, which is such a fun and unique size. It’s perfect for layering all those gorgeous patterned papers while still leaving plenty of room for photos, pockets and little details that make your memories come to life.


For the cover, I started with the rainbow striped side of the Bunny Hop paper trimmed it to 8.25 inches. To make it sturdier, I backed it with Hippity Hoppity paper, cut to the same size, and machine stitched them together using light blue thread. I then scored the piece at 3.5 inches from each side to create a 1.25 inch spine.


For the inside pages, I used a mix of the remaining papers to create a 3" x 8" booklet with six sheets stitched together. I did vary the page sizes slightly for added interest, which I’ll call out below.


One of my favorite elements is the pull-out accordion page made with the Spring Sprouts paper. I trimmed it to 8" x 12" and scored along the long side at 3", 6", and 9". After folding, it creates a fun accordion, with the final 3" section serving as the back side of the booklet when stitched in.



I embellished throughout using a mix of die cuts, Doodle-Pops, and stickers. I added 2.5" x 2.5" photo placeholders, and I love how everything comes together into one cohesive design.


Another favorite element I always include is a pocket page—you’ll find these in almost all of my albums! For this one, I trimmed Everything Easter paper to 8" x 8" and scored it at 2" to form the pocket. I machine stitched along the top and bottom, leaving the left side open for tags and photos. I finished it off with a few circle embellishments and the hello spring Shape Sprinkles.



To see more details and a full walkthrough of each page, head over to my YouTube channel linked below. I share all the design details and little tips along the way. Have a hoppy day, friends!

BUNNY HOP - BUNNY TREAT HOLDERS | with Tya

Hello friends! With Easter right around the corner, I couldn’t resist creating something sweet, simple, and oh-so-cute using the Bunny Hop collection. These darling chocolate bunny treat holders are the perfect little addition to any Easter basket, and they came together so quickly! 


 Did you know that each Doodlebug collection comes with a coordinating Petite Print pack and a matching textured cardstock pack? I love having those options right at my fingertips—it makes mixing and matching effortless and ensures everything ties together beautifully! For these treat holders, I used a mix of those coordinating papers along with some adorable elements from the Bunny Hop collection. The cute bunny chocolates peeking out make the perfect focal point, and I layered on tags, twine, sprinkles, and sweet little embellishments to give each one that extra “Tya touch” of texture and dimension. Each holder has its own personality thanks to the different color combinations, but they all work together so perfectly as a set.


To start, I cut my base piece from some bubblegum textured cardstock to 2” x 8¼”. This will create the main structure of the treat holder and gives it that sturdy feel while still keeping everything nice and lightweight. For the patterned paper, I cut a piece of the Cupcake Candy Stripe/Sprinkles paper from the Petite Prints pack—one measuring 1¾” x 5” for the tall back panel and one measuring 1¾” x 2” for the front pocket piece.


Next, I used my score board and scored along the 8¼” side at 1” and 3 1/8”. These score lines are what form the pocket and give the holder its shape, so be sure to get nice crisp folds for the best results.


Once everything was scored, I folded along the lines to start forming the pocket. You’ll see how quickly it begins to come together into that adorable little holder shape!  I love how these coordinating prints add just the right touch of pattern and color. I adhered the patterned paper pieces onto the base, lining everything up so the pocket section looks clean and polished. This step really brings the whole project to life! 


Next, I used a tag punch at the top of the holder to create that cute tag shape. I also used the punch on the other end of the paper that was folded over. I like how this finishes up the paper and makes it cohesive.


Once the base was ready, I added my chocolate bunny inside the pocket and used adhesive to secure it in place so it stays put. 

 
Then I wrapped some chunky twine around the holder and tied it into a bow. This adds texture and that perfect handmade touch that I just love.


Finally, I decorated the front with some of the sentiment banners from the Chit Chat, Easter Assortment Sprinkles, and the Puffy Icons Stickers from the Bunny Hop collection. These little details are what really make each treat holder unique and extra special! These are such a fun way to dress up a simple chocolate bunny and turn it into a thoughtful handmade gift. They would be adorable tucked into Easter baskets, shared with friends, or even used as place settings for a spring gathering! 


Here are a few close-ups of each of the holders:







 Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope I’ve inspired you to pull out your Bunny Hop collection (and those fabulous coordinating papers!) and whip up a batch of these cute, quick, and easy treat holders. They’re guaranteed to bring a smile and look absolutely perfect in anyone’s Easter basket.

BUNNY HOP - HAPPY EASTER LAYOUT | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna Estrella here today and I'm so excited to be working with the Bunny Hop collection again! I absolutely love all of the adorable icons, pretty patterned papers and stunning color palette. We took our daughter to see the Easter Bunny for her first Easter and the photos turned out so good. I couldn't help but document another photo from this fun tradition! Here's my page: 

When I was going through the collection, the shadow box insert kit kept getting my attention. I've always wanted to use one for a scrapbook layout, so I pulled it out and got to work. If you haven't worked with the shadow box insert kit before, you definitely need to. It comes with everything that you need and putting it together is so therapeutic! Put on your favorite show and just follow the template with instructions.  Super simple process!

Here's an up close of shot of how it looks with all of the stickers together. Some pieces are popped up on foam for extra interest and dimension. Adorable!

Once I had all of my embellishments down on the vellum insert, I selected the Bubblegum cardstock from the solid assortment pack and trimmed it down to an 8.25x8.25 size. This would be the matte for my vellum insert and it would be the perfect pop of pink behind it. To continue with the simplicity and to frame my beautiful insert, I took some white cardstock that I had trimmed to an 11x11 size and adhered the embellished vellum to it. I then took those layers and adhered them to the Easter Everything paper. I'm so in love with how it all looks together!!

Next, I went through the Chit Chat pack in search of a title. I selected a simple 'Happy Easter' banner and adhered it at the top of my page. I then added a 'So Sweet' flag that I added some white twine to and added it under my photo. My girl was so happy to see the Easter bunny!

I thought about adding more embellishments but I really loved the simple look of this page so I chose not to. The large group of embellishments, simple title and my photo were perfect as is. Here's one last look: 

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way. The shadow box kit is such a great way to spark inspiration and it really does all of the designing work for you. I think it's perfect for on the go creating or if you're wanting to create but don't have a lot of time! See you next time friends!
