BUNNY HOP - BUNNY TREAT HOLDERS | with Tya

Hello friends! With Easter right around the corner, I couldn’t resist creating something sweet, simple, and oh-so-cute using the Bunny Hop collection. These darling chocolate bunny treat holders are the perfect little addition to any Easter basket, and they came together so quickly! 


 Did you know that each Doodlebug collection comes with a coordinating Petite Print pack and a matching textured cardstock pack? I love having those options right at my fingertips—it makes mixing and matching effortless and ensures everything ties together beautifully! For these treat holders, I used a mix of those coordinating papers along with some adorable elements from the Bunny Hop collection. The cute bunny chocolates peeking out make the perfect focal point, and I layered on tags, twine, sprinkles, and sweet little embellishments to give each one that extra “Tya touch” of texture and dimension. Each holder has its own personality thanks to the different color combinations, but they all work together so perfectly as a set.


To start, I cut my base piece from some bubblegum textured cardstock to 2” x 8¼”. This will create the main structure of the treat holder and gives it that sturdy feel while still keeping everything nice and lightweight. For the patterned paper, I cut a piece of the Cupcake Candy Stripe/Sprinkles paper from the Petite Prints pack—one measuring 1¾” x 5” for the tall back panel and one measuring 1¾” x 2” for the front pocket piece.


Next, I used my score board and scored along the 8¼” side at 1” and 3 1/8”. These score lines are what form the pocket and give the holder its shape, so be sure to get nice crisp folds for the best results.


Once everything was scored, I folded along the lines to start forming the pocket. You’ll see how quickly it begins to come together into that adorable little holder shape!  I love how these coordinating prints add just the right touch of pattern and color. I adhered the patterned paper pieces onto the base, lining everything up so the pocket section looks clean and polished. This step really brings the whole project to life! 


Next, I used a tag punch at the top of the holder to create that cute tag shape. I also used the punch on the other end of the paper that was folded over. I like how this finishes up the paper and makes it cohesive.


Once the base was ready, I added my chocolate bunny inside the pocket and used adhesive to secure it in place so it stays put. 

 
Then I wrapped some chunky twine around the holder and tied it into a bow. This adds texture and that perfect handmade touch that I just love.


Finally, I decorated the front with some of the sentiment banners from the Chit Chat, Easter Assortment Sprinkles, and the Puffy Icons Stickers from the Bunny Hop collection. These little details are what really make each treat holder unique and extra special! These are such a fun way to dress up a simple chocolate bunny and turn it into a thoughtful handmade gift. They would be adorable tucked into Easter baskets, shared with friends, or even used as place settings for a spring gathering! 


Here are a few close-ups of each of the holders:







 Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope I’ve inspired you to pull out your Bunny Hop collection (and those fabulous coordinating papers!) and whip up a batch of these cute, quick, and easy treat holders. They’re guaranteed to bring a smile and look absolutely perfect in anyone’s Easter basket.

BUNNY HOP - HAPPY EASTER LAYOUT | with Brianna

Hey friends! Brianna Estrella here today and I'm so excited to be working with the Bunny Hop collection again! I absolutely love all of the adorable icons, pretty patterned papers and stunning color palette. We took our daughter to see the Easter Bunny for her first Easter and the photos turned out so good. I couldn't help but document another photo from this fun tradition! Here's my page: 

When I was going through the collection, the shadow box insert kit kept getting my attention. I've always wanted to use one for a scrapbook layout, so I pulled it out and got to work. If you haven't worked with the shadow box insert kit before, you definitely need to. It comes with everything that you need and putting it together is so therapeutic! Put on your favorite show and just follow the template with instructions.  Super simple process!

Here's an up close of shot of how it looks with all of the stickers together. Some pieces are popped up on foam for extra interest and dimension. Adorable!

Once I had all of my embellishments down on the vellum insert, I selected the Bubblegum cardstock from the solid assortment pack and trimmed it down to an 8.25x8.25 size. This would be the matte for my vellum insert and it would be the perfect pop of pink behind it. To continue with the simplicity and to frame my beautiful insert, I took some white cardstock that I had trimmed to an 11x11 size and adhered the embellished vellum to it. I then took those layers and adhered them to the Easter Everything paper. I'm so in love with how it all looks together!!

Next, I went through the Chit Chat pack in search of a title. I selected a simple 'Happy Easter' banner and adhered it at the top of my page. I then added a 'So Sweet' flag that I added some white twine to and added it under my photo. My girl was so happy to see the Easter bunny!

I thought about adding more embellishments but I really loved the simple look of this page so I chose not to. The large group of embellishments, simple title and my photo were perfect as is. Here's one last look: 

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way. The shadow box kit is such a great way to spark inspiration and it really does all of the designing work for you. I think it's perfect for on the go creating or if you're wanting to create but don't have a lot of time! See you next time friends!

LUCKY ME HAPPY LIFE LAYOUT | with Tarrah

There’s nothing quite like documenting everyday happiness, and the gorgeous Lucky Me Collection makes it impossibly fun! For today’s scrapbook layout, I leaned all the way into bright colors, playful patterns, and cheerful icons to celebrate a moment that truly represents a happy life.


This layout starts with the gorgeous rainbow‑filled 'Rainbow Skies' patterned paper, instantly setting a joyful tone. The repeating rainbows create a whimsical background, perfect for everyday memories that deserve a little extra sunshine. To add visual interest, I folded back 2 corners of the paper to reveal the sunny yellow gingham pattern on the back! Layering this over the vibrant pink 'My Lucky Charm' patterned paper, the folds in the paper point right toward the photo and drawing the eye straight to the heart of the page. 


Speaking of adorable details—can we talk about the smiling sunshine icons? These sweet little characters add such personality and warmth to the layout. Paired with fluffy cloud die-cuts, hearts, and tiny accents all from the 'All The Things' ephemera pack, they help tell the story without overwhelming the photo.

The photo is matted simply to keep the focus on the memory, while small sentiment stickers like “love it” and “so happy” tuck in perfectly around it. These simple phrases add meaning and reinforce the carefree, happy theme of the page.


For the title, I mixed and matched text die-cuts to create “happy LIFE”, letting the word LIFE to stand out in fresh green tones. The title was adhered using craft foam to add dimension to the page.

My tip: When working with bold patterned papers like those in the Lucky Me Collection, try using strong geometric shapes (like triangles or angled panels) to help guide the eye around the page. Not only do they add playful movement, but they’re also a great way to spotlight your photo without needing lots of extra embellishments. Let the patterns and colors do the happy work for you!


One of my favorite things about the Lucky Me Collection is how effortlessly everything works together. The icons, patterns, colors, and sentiments are all perfectly coordinated, making it easy to create a polished layout while still having fun with playful designs.


If you’re looking to document everyday moments, special memories, or simply celebrate the joy in your life, the Lucky Me Collection is truly a must‑have. Bright, happy, and full of charm—just like the memories it helps preserve. Happy creating!

LUCKY ME SPRING BOOK MARKS | with Niella

Hey crafty friends, how fast is March going! St. Patrick's Day may be over for 2026 but crafty inspiration thankfully never ends so I'm happy to have you visit today to check out my latest Doodlebug Design project doodle twine bookmarks! It's no secret doodle twine is one of my fave DB products to create with as it adds that extra texture, dimension and darling!  I have a video showcase at the end of this post, so stay tuned!

Each of these darling bookmarks are created on white cardstock bases that measure 6.5" x 2.5".  On top of that, I've layered patterned paper, then coordinating cardstock and then a piece of white textured cardstock for some white space to write on decorate further on.


Foam squares are my absolute go to for lifting and creating 3D layers on my embellishments and projects.  I've used the icon stickers for all the elements on my bookmarks, don't they look super cute all popped out! 



Each bookmark has an eyelet set loop hole and I've threaded through a contracting twine and looped them randomly around and adhered them to the bookmark to stay in place.  How cute do the all look together.  These would be great on scrapbook pages and in mini albums or planners as well.  The white bubble cardstock on front of each serves as a great area for mini photos or journaling.


How many uses can you think of for bookmarks?  These are designed to have the bottom half tucked in your book page and the top part sitting above your closed book.  Easy to mark where you're next page starter is!


I also love the idea of popping each one into either some books to gift, or tucking into a gift hamper with some fresh baking or how about sending a couple in happy mail.  So many ideas and so many uses!


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 doo!  Enjoy my video showcase!

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
