HEY PUMPKIN HALLOWEEN BOXES | with Miguel

We continue creating beautiful projects for this Halloween season, and this time I created these fun boxes with the Hey Pumpkin collection. I loved the results!

To make them, I used coordinating textured cardstock for the boxes and decorated them with patterned papers, and Odds & Ends to give the boxes that fun and adorable effect.

I made two versions, changing the color of each one: orange and pink. Both are very pretty, hehe.

And obviously, there's a big surprise inside. I added these super terrifying, yet cute earrings, which I'm sure my friends will love. 


Thanks for reading and stopping by. See you soon!

HEY PUMPKIN GHOULFRIENDS LAYOUT | with Nathalie

We are getting closer and closer to all things spooky and  fun!  So, today, I am going to share how I am using the colorful and beautiful Hey Pumpkin collection to create  a scrapbook layout that will hold my Goddaughters' photos for this year.  Let's take a look at the project:


I love graphic designs with straight and  repeating elements.  I played with them for this spread, and loved the weaved effect on the page.


I started by cutting strips from the Hey Pumpkin paper, then weaved them on top  of the Eek! paper. Once I secured them, I trim the paper to 11x11 and framed it with the Moonlight Magic paper.  The placement of the lines creates the perfect spot for everything else.


I am using papers from the 6x6 paper pad to frame the photos, and then added them to the top left corner of the layout.   The photos are on a slight angle so that they pop from the straight lines of the background.



I kept my embellishments subtle and added pieces from This & That , Odds & Ends to the corners of the photos.  There is so much already on the page that  works better to keep it simple this time.


To finish the page, I mixed Chit Chat with a few stickers at the bottom right corner of the page.  This helps balance the page as well as help with the design in the weaved paper strips.  A few sprinkles to add pops of color completes the spread. I love how this turned  out, and I am ready to just add the photos come November 1st.  Be sure to take the pictures and then document them with the fun Hey Pumpkin collection. XO

HEY PUMPKIN POP UP CARDS | with Kathy

I think that Hey Pumpkin is one of my favorite Doodlebug Halloween collections.  Probably because it's full of adorable black cats!!  This time around I decided to make some fun pop up cards featuring some of those kitties, take a peek...


For the base of my cards I used pop up platform dies from my stash and some Beetle Black Cardstock.  I added some papers from the 6x6 pad for color around the bases.  My first card features the sweet little pink car driven by a little ghost from the Odds & Ends pack.  Behind the car is a fun tree from the Odds & Ends and a bat from the Halloween Night shaped sprinkles.


For my last layer I cut a 3x4 piece of our heavyweight clear acetate, and adhered another ghost and moon from the Odds & Ends and some stars and a bat from the shaped sprinkles. I love how it looks like they're floating behind the tree. I finished it with a sentiment banner from the Chit Chat pack.  


For my next card I used the pumpkin, ghost and kitty from the Bits & Pieces pack.  I wanted it to look like they were in the middle of a pumpkin patch so I added a few more pumpkins from the Odds & Ends along with some flowers and leaves. 


For this card I also added a piece of heavyweight acetate in back.  To this I added a ghost and some more shaped sprinkles bats so they were flying behind the kitty.  The speech bubble is from the Chit Chat pieces.


Now if I can remember to mail the cards, I'll be all set!  Have you made any projects using the Hey Pumpkin collection?  If you do, be sure to tag @doodlebugdesign on socials!  We love to see what you create.  That's it for me today, thank you for stopping by to peek!
