It's Doodle-pop time!!!! Today I decided that I was going to break into the beloved collection and use some of the darling Doodle-pops from the Hometown USA collection. Because really, is there anything cuter than a Doodlebug Doodle-pop (even if it is a bit of a tongue twister)?
For this set of cards, I decided to use the coordinating Cards & Envelopes as a base. I love this product because there is such a wonderful selection of sizes and colours with envelopes that are just as beautiful! They are such an easy way to start your cards off without having to decide how big each one is going to be (and whether you have an envelope that will work with it)! From there, I just cut some patterned paper in Picnic Plaid and Polka-dot Pride for a matt and used them as the first layer on each card.
And then the fun began! I grabbed two different Doodle-pops (Bluebirds and Festive Floral) and the amazing Shaker-pop - Freedom Fireworks as the focal point for each card. I added some more layering pieces from the Bits & Pieces pack and some sentiments from the Chit Chat pack. Some darling Doodle-twine and a Mini Doilie in Ladybug were the perfect anchor for the tag-like sentiment I selected. A few Mini Paperclips in Blue Jean also added a bit of texture on one card that needed a bit of something "extra".
Oh, and because I was having so much fun with these, I decided to decorate the envelopes as well to coordinate a little bit more with the cards I created. I think of it as a little sneak peek for the card to come!
You know, as hard as it can be to use my Doodle-pops, I never, ever regret using them. They really are show stoppers and just help these cards really pop (pun intended). And now I have an excuse to collect some more! :) Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
