LUCKY ME ACETATE CARDS | with Jen

I've been on a card making kick lately so as soon as I got my hands on the new Lucky Me collection I knew I needed to make some fun acetate cards!

I used one sheet of the new Rainbow Drops Heavy Acetate for my card bases. I cut two A4 card bases and used the leftover to cut a "spine" for a third card. 

For my first card I kept it simple. I used the "spine" scrap and a couple of sheets from the 6x8 Lucky Me paper pad to make my card. I decorated it with pieces from the All the Things pack and some Lucky Me Sprinkles. 

I hid my inside leprechaun behind the balloon on the front of the card. I also used the Lucky Me sentiment on the front of the card to hide the inside sentiment. Both came from the All the Things pack.

For my second card I used one of my card bases and a 4x4 cut apart from the Color Me Happy sheet in the collection kit. I cut the center out and used the leftover frame for the top of my shaker. I backed it with clear Doodlebug Heavyweight acetate. 

I adhered the center to the front of card and added my Rainbow Bright Shakers then finished it off with the top frame. Since I overfilled my shaker I added a sentiment from the All the Things pack and a small rainbow along with some Sprinkles.

Inside I added some more 4x4 mats from the My Lucky Charm 12x12 paper. This is to cover the adhesive on the back of the shaker. I also added another sentiment from the All the Things pack along with a flower cluster and one of the adorable Lucky Lady Icon Sprinkles.

For my third card I used the You are My Sunshine Doodle Cuts to cut the rainbow and cloud shapes into the front of my card base. I then die cut the rainbow from the Lucky Me Coordinating Cardstock pack and assembled it. I added to the inside of the card directly behind the cutout. I cut a number of extra clouds and layered them together to give them dimension and topped them with a final cloud cut from the Plaid Polka Dot 6x6 Petite Print paper pad. 

I finished it off with a sentiment from the All the Things pack and the sun die cut. Inside I backed those with a second sentiment and another sun. 

I have a full process video for all three cards on my YouTube channel as well!


Have a great day!

SNOW MUCH FUN - HELLO WINTER LAYOUT | with Tarrah

If you’re looking for a fun winter project that lets you build your own miniature world, combining the Snow Much Fun collection with a whimsical snow globe cut file from the Oh What Fun SVG collection, then look no further! This layout brings all the cozy, snowy magic of the season to life. 


I started by cutting the snow globe from several patterned papers in the collection. I chose the clear acetate for the “glass” portion and layered it with a bold purple frame to help the globe stand out against the white background. To add even more texture and movement, I filled the globe with tiny snowflake sprinkles. The result feels playful, sparkly, and full of winter cheer.


Inside the snow globe, I created a miniature winter scene using the adorable houses, trees, and icon stickers from the Snow Much Fun collection. The mix of blues, purples, and fresh greens gives the layout a lively, modern winter palette.

Some of the houses and trees are popped up with foam adhesive for extra dimension—because who doesn’t love a little lift on a scrapbook page?


The photo sits neatly in the lower right section of the globe, tucked behind a few layered trees to keep the scene feeling cohesive. Beneath it, a “Hello Winter” sentiment banner ties the whole theme together.

And of course, no Doodlebug layout is complete without enamel shapes, sprinkles, and a sweet coordinating twine bow at the base of the snow globe.


To ground the entire layout, I mounted the snow globe on white cardstock and then framed the page in a deep blue patterned paper base. The darker color adds contrast and beautifully frames the design, making the soft snowy elements inside the globe really shine.


Thanks so much for stopping by the Doodlebug blog today! Hope you have enjoyed all the gorgeous Snow Much Fun inspiration by the design team over the last few weeks! Happy crafting!

SNOW MUCH FUN DISC MINI ALBUM | with Niella

Hi crafty friends! Wow, hasn't the start of the year gone so fast already! Let's jump right in with a hot beverage and a pair of your fave cozy slippers  as I bring you my fourth project revisiting the super cute Snow Much Fun collection by Doodlebug Design! A disc-bound mini album! This 5"x3.5" sweet mini album is sure to please! I have a video showcase at the end to show all the pages, so read through and I'll see you at the end.  Bonus!



The front cover was made with the Let it Snow heavyweight acetate from the collection.  It's perfect as it features snowflakes galore! I love how when this mini album is closed up, it gives a peek-a-boo look.  And how cute it looks from the first page.  The scallop edges give it great texture and the staggered tier style pages make flipping the pages so easy! 


Hi mister Yeti! How cute you! This page needed no other elements he was perfect enough on his own! Look how snug his fur looks and his adorable face, SNOW cute! I love the look of the pages beneath.  From this view you can see each page peeking out.


This next page has the adorable snow fox from the Icon Stickers and is on a stitched page. Stitching adds a quick and easy texture to any page and I love stitching on this All Bundled Up patterned paper! The BRRRR word sticker adds the final touch. Let's flip through some more precious pages!



I love popping in tuck spots! They're so important to add to all albums, sometimes you get some paper bits and pieces that you'd like to include in your memory making like a sticker from packaging or a torn piece of fabric or how about a tag from some clothing you just brought! 


I decorated both sides of my mini album pages. there are lots of spots to document all the memory making.  You could add in some mini photos and you have a perfect gift! I love using stickers as ephemera pieces.  The Icon stickers are a perfect size.  I always try to fit as much of each Doodlebug collection as I can on my projects, there is just SNOW much to create with!


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!

SNOW MUCH FUN HEART TREAT BOXES | with Karen

Hey Doodlebug fans! It's almost time for Valentine's Day, so I wanted to share a little project with you that you can use to show a little love!

One of the things I love doing around Valentine's day is playing with collections that can be used for the day even if they weren't designed that way. I know that Valentine's day is usually full of pink, red and white, but I have some special people in my life who would prefer blue or purple any day. So why not design for the day with your loved one's favourite colours?

Snow Much Fun is definitely a winter collection, but there are so many beautiful prints in this collection that are not snow-themed at all. Pull them out and you can craft with this collection any time of the year for any event that you might need! I used it to create these little treat containers that I made with the help of a Lori Whitlock cut file.

The base is Doodlebug textured cardstock from the coordinated pack. It is the perfect weight for the bases and the texture adds more interest and dimension.

Each section of the container is then decorated with some patterned paper.

I then embellished each one of the containers with patterned paper - All Bundled Up, Snow Much Fun and Snow Happy Together were the three pieces that I used. 

Finally, I topped them off with a tag that I cut from the Freeze tag 12x12 paper and then embellished with a couple of hearts from the Puffy Icon Stickers. Each container was then filled up and tied up with some Chunky Doodle Twine in Lilac.

These containers are as sweet as the treats inside and I cannot wait to share them this week! Don't be afraid to share a little love with an unconventional collection - it might just set your gift apart from the rest! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs!

SNOW MUCH FUN 6x8 LAYOUTS | with Nathalie

We are in a deep freeze here in Toronto, Canada!  I think this is one of the most snowiest and coldest winters I have survived, so being indoors gives me time to take some time to document some of my snow stories with the fun Snow Much Fun collection in my family 6x8 album.  Let me show you what I have created.


I loved working with a single collection to create quick and fun layouts, as the papers all work nicely together, it makes it so easy to mix and match patterns and embellishments.


I started with lily white cardstock from the Textured Cardstock coordinating collection.   The 6x6 paper pad was the right size paper to create the corner designs in the layout.   Once, I had the corners in place, I used one of the papers to frame my photo, and placed in the top left quarter of the page, and added a cluster to the top left corner of the photo.  To balance the page, I added a large title in the bottom right corner of the layout, all I need is my journaling.


I started this layout with  a base of the Frozen Flurry patterned paper, then used the 6x6 paper pad and stickers to create the top and bottom borders.  Next, I pulled all the clouds from the embellishment packs and adhered them at the top of the page.  I then  added a few snowflakes to create a snowy scene for the page. 


For my last spread, I opted for a pocket page taking advantage of the cut-aparts on the Cold Streak patterned paper.   I used one of the 3x8 cards to create my journaling card, just added a large piece from Odds and Ends to cover the art in the card. 


I used one of the 3x4 journaling cards in the Cold Streak paper to frame one of the photos, then built the 4x6 card using  6x6 paper pad papers and different embellishments.  I love how this turned out, and how easy they came together with the Snow Much Fun collection,

I hope this inspires you to pulled the collection to create a project of your own! XO

SNOW MUCH FUN VALENTINES | with Kathy

Growing up, did you have Valentine's Day parties in school?  I always loved finding the perfect little cards to hand out to everyone in class!  My favorites were always the ones with the punny sayings.  I thought that the cute little critters from the Snow Much Fun Snow Cute Doodle Cuts would make fabulous little valentine notes, so I decided to put a few together.  Take a peek...


I started by piecing together the Snow Cute Doodle Cuts critters using some of the Snow Much Fun coordinating textured cardstock.  Next I printed the sentiments on some more of the textured cardstock.  Using my Word program, I printed on cardstock cut to be 4x6. (this was the smallest size I could print using my printer).  I then cut a stitched rectangle (2 1/4"x 3 1/2")  around the printed words using dies from my stash. I backed the printed rectangles with a larger stitched rectangle measuring 3" x 4 1/4".  I used papers from the 6x6 pad for this, I love the smaller print size!


I added my critters using some foam dots, and then completed each with some hearts from the I Love Snow Shape Sprinkles.



I had a cut file for an envelope which I sized to fit my cards, and cut from some coordinating petite prints.  The are all so fun, I'm not sure which is my favorite!  I love using my Doodlebug supplies for "off - theme" projects!  That's it for me today, thank you for stopping by to peek!

SNOW MUCH FUN - JUMBO CLIP EMBELLISHMENTS | with Conny

Hi crafty friends! Conny here from The Daily Life of Creativity, and today I’m sharing a quick and fun embellishment project using the Snow Much Fun collection. These jumbo clip embellishments came together super fast!   I wanted to create them as an addition to the mini album that I  previously posted. You can see the mini album here on the Doodlebug blog post and in my YouTube process video.






Here's how to put them together.  To start, grab your Snow Much Fun 6×6 paper pad;  all of our cutting is from this pad! Cut one piece of patterned paper to 6″ × 3.5″ (with the 6″ side as the long edge). Score that piece at 3″.  Next,  slide the paper through a jumbo paper clip and adhere it at the bottom, right in the middle, to keep it closed and secure.


Next, add a matted layer to the front. I left about ⅛″ to ¼″ of a border all the way around, but that is totally a personal preference. These matting papers are also from the 6×6 paper pad, so definitely pull those pads out and mix your patterns. Once the base is done, the decorating goes quickly and is so much fun.



From the Snow Much Fun Bits & Pieces, pick out four snowflakes and adhere them using foam dot adhesive for dimension. Using the Mini Icons, choose your favorites: little houses, polar bears, and all those adorable winter icons. Create small clusters by layering icons together with foam adhesive. Add a scallop border from the 12×12 sticker sheet along the bottom. Finish everything off with Shape Sprinkles and enamel dots, sprinkling them around the design for color and texture.


To finish the clips, I added some little yarn accents (those soft, poofy details you see at the top!). Here’s how I made them...


Wrap yarn around three fingers,  over and over,  until you’re happy with the thickness. Tie a separate piece of yarn tightly around the center. Cut the loops open with scissors and trim and round the yarn until it looks nice and fluffy. Simple, quick, and such a cute finishing touch! 

These jumbo clip embellishments came together really quickly and make the perfect addition to winter projects. You can tuck them into a book, add them to a gift, or use them to embellish the Snow Much Fun mini album we created in a previous blog post/process video. If you’d like to check that out.



Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope this inspires you to create your own Snow Much Fun embellishments. Happy crafting!
