LUCKY ME ALTERED NOTEBOOK | with Karen

I love making lists. I make them almost everyday. There is something so satisfying about getting all of those tasks crossed off and feeling like you have actually accomplished something!

So I decided to decorate up a plain little journal to capture more of my lists! Given how much I love Doodlebug, it seems like a match made in heaven.

It was actually this cute little Just Charming keychain that inspired the project. I wanted a reason to carry it around, and clipping it to the binding of the notebook seemed like a great option.

But is seemed so lonely on the notebook so I had the embellish it with some beautiful Color Me Happy 12x12 paper and a few die cuts from the All the Things pack. A few Sprinkles and a bit of Doodle Twine in Swimming pool added a little bit of texture to the front.

I also found some of these cute tags on the This & That Sticker sheet. I added them in about every 20 pages just to divide the notebook up a bit and to add a bit more Doodlebug colour!

Finally, I added a little sheet of Mini Icon Stickers into the back of the notebook. Because let's be real - the only thing better than a list is one embellished with Doodlebug stickers. This will be like a gift that just keeps on giving!

I can't wait to get started in the notebook. I can hear the lists calling my name! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,

LUCKY ME SPRING ORGANIZER | with Miguel

Today I decided to alter this wooden organizer with the Petite Print Assortment papers from the Lucky Me collection. This collection is so cheerful and full of color, just like Doodlebug!  First, I painted the piece with acrylic paint and then cut chipboard and decorative paper to cover the structure.

I decided to use the beautiful rainbow, from the You are My Sunshine Doodle Cuts, to be the star of my project. I personally love cutting from Doodlebug cardstock and popping up with foam in the same color to give the pieces more life and movement; this creates a 3D effect and you'll love the result. 

To give a more professional finish, I cut a very thin strip of cardstock to hide the foam  The thickness varied depending on the number of foamy layers cut.

For decoration, I used the All the Things and Puffy Icon Stickers that perfectly match the piece,

I love a unique and special piece that will look spectacular in my crafty workspace. I can put my markers and other desk tools in it. 

Thanks for stopping by! Best regards.

LUCKY ME - HAPPY STORY LAYOUT | with Nathalie

We are starting Spring here in the northern hemisphere, and the weather has improved a little bit.  We are still spending time indoors and getting crafty.  I am loving the  Lucky Me collection  as it has the perfect color combination, the cutest icons and it is perfect to document all sorts of stories.  Here is what I have created:

I wanted to use a simple design for my page using some of left over pieces from previous projects.  So, a clean design was the way to go to highlight both the photo and the rest of the page.

I started by choosing Bumblebee floral/graph petite prints for my background.  Next, I cut strips of  Clover Patch and My Lucky Charm paper and layered them with some of the border strips from the This & That sticker sheet.   I framed my photo with a paper from the 6x8 paper pad, and set it on the layout.

I combined pieces from the All the Things pack and icon stickers to create a large cluster at the bottom left corner of the page.  I made sure that it balanced the top part of the layout.  I also added a few pieces from the icon stickers to create a cluster at the top right corner of the photo.  To finish, I added a few Sprinkles around the page.

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
