LUCKY ME - LUCKY CHARM LAYOUT | with Tarrah

One of my favorite things about Doodlebug Design collections is the adorable characters—and the Lucky Me Collection has some of the cutest! This layout was so much fun to create with all the sweet leprechauns, shamrocks, and pops of happy green and yellow featured in the gorgeous Lucky Me collection!

For this layout, I wanted to keep the design playful while still letting the photo shine. I started with a crisp white background and framed it with the Shamrock Wishes patterned paper from the Lucky Me Collection to create a bold, festive border. The layered greens instantly set the vibe and give the page a fresh, lively feel.

To build my main design, I created a vertical panel on the left side using the 'B' side of the Rainbow Skies patterned paper. I added a scalloped green border sticker from the This & That sticker sheet along the edge to bring in extra texture and dimension. This panel helps anchor the layout and draws your eye right toward the photo and embellishment cluster.


I layered several embellishments around the photo, including sweet little leprechauns, shamrocks, and a pot of gold.

The layered die-cuts help create a playful scene at the bottom of the photo, almost like the characters are celebrating the memory captured in the picture. I also tucked in a few small flowers and hearts to soften the look and add more pops of color.


My title, “Lucky Charm”, sits right underneath the photo and acts as the focal point of the page. I love how the bright yellow letters pop against the green and white layers. To add a bit more emotional storytelling of my 2 sons in the black and white photo, I included the small phrase sticker Lucky & Blessed above the photo.


The Lucky Me Collection from Doodlebug Design Inc is perfect for documenting St. Patrick’s Day memories, lucky moments, or even everyday photos that deserve a cheerful touch. The combination of cute characters, vibrant patterns, and sweet sentiments makes it incredibly easy to build layered, story-filled pages.


Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this layout inspires you to pull out your Lucky Me Collection and create something bright, happy, and full of charmHappy creating!

LUCKY ME HAPPY MAIL | with Niella

Hi crafty crew! It's mid March already and it's nearly time to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! Have you been getting ready with crafty projects or handmade gifts?  With only a week to go, there is still time to create something quick, easy and super fun to gift in happy mail or to give your crafty friend at your next get together or swap-meet! Let's get straight into my next Lucky Me project, DIY loaded envelopes and something special to go inside, mini shaker mixes and fun flagettes, no dies needed! And I have a video showcase at the end as well! 


I  have a tutorial on my YouTube channel showing how to make your own DIY envelopes, so if you do not have an envelope maker or don't want to use premade envelopes then remember to check it out.  It's a good way to use up all those patterned papers and pads that you have hoarded and collected over the years!

Don't you just love the look of all the sweetness, bright colors and pure cuteness! Doodlebug always make it so super fun & easy by curating all the matching papers, stickers, icons and patterned papers, you cannot go wrong with your crafting!


Let's talk about the envelopes and what I've used to create them.  On the left, I've used the scalloped This & That sticker Lucky Me sticker as the vocal point on top of the envelope made with the Swimming Pool dot-stripe paper from the Lucky Me Petite Print Assortment cardstock pack and lined with the Rainbow Skies patterned paper and sprinkled with mini icons stickers! Super delightful! The gingham envelope is created from the Cherry gingham-linen paper and Clover Patch.  I love this one with all the polka dots and sweet gingham style.


Look at that sweet wreath and hanging rainbow charm! Such a great idea to add some Doodlebug twine in the mix! This envelope was created with Shamrock Wishes and the wreath is from the Icons Sticker Sheet.  Popping foam dots behind the elements gives my projects dimension and helps pop out the sentiments.  Fun! The yellow envelope is from My Lucky Charm and Bumblebee floral-graph papers.  Gotta love a good yellow shade and this one is so amazing!


Lastly, to add some extra special goodies to my DIY envelopes, I have created some shaker mixes using Doodlebug Shakers.  How many do you have in your stash? I bet you have nearly all of them, they are super duper darling and they come in the sweetest storage jar.  To create the mix, I randomly chose a few of the Shakers that I felt that matched Lucky Me, but I encourage you to try creating your own style shaker mix.  Then, using the scrap paper, I created some flagettes on white paper straws.  Didn't they turn out sweetiful?  A sparkly pom pom adds that extra cuteness!


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!

LUCKY ME DOODLE POP CARDS | with Karen

I love bright and bold colour so it should come as no surprise that I adore Doodlebug's Lucky Me collection. The colours reminds me of my childhood - candy, toys and joy! So today I wanted to focus on creating some cards that had that same feel.

While I am usually all over the patterned paper as a background for my cards, I also find it a lot of fun to keep the backgrounds simple to draw attention to the fun characters that you can find in Doodlebug collections. So for this set, I grabbed some of the white bases from the Rainbow Cards & Envelopes to build upon.

And considering the intention of these cards was to feature cute characters, I couldn't help but use some of the adorable Doodle-pops that coordinate with this collection, like this one called Lucky Charm.

To create more dimension, I layered the Doodle-pops on top of some tags I cut from the St. Paddy's Plaid - 12x12 patterned paper. I love it when Doodlebug includes tags like this on their 12x12 patterned paper because they are always the perfect size for cards! I also added some fun die cuts from the Lucky Me- All the Things pack for a little bit of interest and piled it all on top of a cute mini doily.

Finally, I topped off some of the tags with a few Mini Paperclips and some Sprinkles from the Lucky Me assortment park.

I feel like these cards turned out exactly as I had hoped - straight out of a childhood dream. Playful, fun, bright - Doodlebug for the win once again! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
