BUNNY HOP HELLO MINI ALBUM | with Conny

Hello crafty friends! Conny here from The Daily Life of Creativity, and today I’m sharing this fun and colorful mini album created with the Bunny Hop collection from Doodlebug Design. This album is full of bright colors, sweet details, and lots of layers, and it came together pretty quickly. If you’d like to see the full process, be sure to head over to my YouTube channel.

To get started, I used two pieces of chipboard measuring 8 1/4 by 5 1/2 for the covers. I wrapped the chipboard using papers from the Bunny Hop collection, specifically Bubblegum Floral Graph and May Flowers, trimming those down to 7 by 9 3/4 so they would wrap nicely around the chipboard. For the inside of the covers, I used the Petite Print Bubblegum Gingham Linen and trimmed those to 8 1/4 by 5 3/8 to cover the inside cleanly.

For the spine, I used a piece of acetate measuring 8 1/4 by 3 1/2. I adhered it using double-sided tape, adding about 1 inch of adhesive on each side and attaching it directly to the chipboard covers. I love how this creates a clear spine where you can still see all those fun polka dots peeking through. Once the acetate was in place, I added the inside matting paper on top to cover the adhesive and finish off the inside.

On both sides of the album, I created a waterfall-style layout using five pages per side. Each page measures 6 1/2 by 4 1/4, and I scored along the 6 1/2 inch side at 1/2 inch to create the flap. I started placing the pages about 1/4 inch from the top and layered them down to create that cascading effect. For this album, I wanted a lengthwise design, so the top pages open to the left and the bottom pages open to the right, but you can definitely adjust the direction depending on how you want your album to flow.

To decorate, I used 3 by 4 cards on the front of the waterfall sections and added embellishment clusters along the sides and bottom for extra dimension and interest. On the inside, I left the spaces open so they can easily hold 4 by 6 photos, making this album perfect for documenting spring or Easter memories.

I love how playful and happy this album turned out, and the Bunny Hop collection really makes it so easy to layer patterns, colors, and textures together. Don’t forget to check out the full process video, which will be available soon, for all the details. I hope this inspires you to create something fun and colorful today.
