LUCKY ME - LUCKY ME LAYOUT | with Nathalie

I am loving the new Lucky Me collection! All the colors, the cute designs, and the sentiments are just so perfect to document those special memories. I took a few pictures from my littlest cousins for this layout.

I love geometric patterns, and the rainbow stripes are just a great way to bring attention to areas of the layout.   I cut some from the 6x8 paper pad and then lined them up to create chevrons on my white cardstock.

I set my photos ( I framed these with papers from the 6x8 paper pad) in the center area where all the chevrons point, making them the focus of my layout.  I needed just a few embellishments to bring sentiment and color to them.

I balanced the position of the pictures by adding embellishments to  the corners of each picture.  This  helps make the page balanced even when the photos are only on one area of the layout. 

I wanted to accent the diagonal lines in the layout, so I used them to position my title.   The key was to find the right fit.  I wanted it to fit on one line and be large enough to balance the other side of the spread.  I then used Sprinkles to create a guiding line to the center to the chevrons.

I love how this  turned out!  I hope this inspires you to get crafty with your Lucky Me collection, I cannot wait to see what you will create with it!  XO

LUCKY ME - ST. PATRICK'S DAY SHADOW BOX | with Miguel

If I had to talk about my favorite products and tools, I'd definitely mention Doodlebug's beautiful collections! And today I used my favorite tool, the Shadow Box Punch Board, because it lets you quickly and easily make small paper frames to decorate any space.

I worked with the petite print assortment from the Lucky Me collection to make two frames in different sizes, and then I cut this beautiful bouquet of flowers with the Bunch of Luck Doodle Cuts.  For the second shadow box, I filled the frame with a cut-apart from the  the card from the St. Paddy's Plaid cardstock.

Look how incredible the die-cut looks when cut from the coordinating cardstock.  I added foam dots to each piece to make it dimensional. I also used shape sprinkles from the same collection to add light and more design to my beautiful bouquet of flowers and clovers.

Now I have two frames to decorate and brighten up my workspace! Or for any corner of our home. 

Thanks for reading and stopping by, see you soon!

LUCKY ME RAINBOW TREAT BOXES | with Kathy

Every year I attend the Crop on the Cape Scrapbook retreat.  I've been going for over 20 years!  It's such a fun event, a chance to catch up with friends and of course get some crafting in!  I always try to bring a little something special for my table-mates and this year I decided to make some fun treat holders using the Lucky Me Collection along with the You are My Sunshine Doodle Cuts. Take a peek...

I started with a Lori Whitlock SVG File for the base. (linked below)  I cut it from some Lily White cardstock and added a handle made from some swimming pool cardstock and attached with some Swimming Pool chunky brads.

Using the You are My Sunshine Doodle Cuts, I cut the rainbows from a mixture of Lucky Me coordinating Petite Prints and some papers from the collection.  The clouds were cut from some lily white polka dot/plaid petite prints.  I popped up the clouds with some foam tape and also used some foam tape to attach the rainbows to the box.  To complete the look I added a Swimming Pool Puffy Shape Heart.

To complete my boxes, I die cut the tag, hello and shamrock from the Bunch of Luck Doodle Cuts.  I punched a hole in both and tied them to the box using some Swimming Pool Doodle Twine.

I filled my little boxes with some rainbow sprinkle nonpareils from a local Cape Cod Candy maker.  They are yummy, and I thought they went well with my rainbow theme.  Now to finish packing for the crop!  That's it for me today, thank you for stopping by to peek.
