CUPCAKES & CANDLES TIERED CAKE MINI ALBUM | with Kathy

Today I have a mini album using the Cupcakes & Candles collection. I found this adorable mini album tutorial on Instagram and immediately fell in love!   And as soon as I saw the new Make a Wish Doodle Cuts, I knew I wanted to combine the two to create my tiered cake mini album.  Take a peek...

When the album is all folded it looks like a yummy cake on a pretty cake stand! The cover was created with chipboard and covered with the Surprise Party Paper on the outside and a tag from the Hip Hip Hooray paper on the inside.  The inside pages were made from Raspberry cardstock found in the coordinating cardstock pack.  

To decorate my cake I used the frosting, flower and cake stand dies from the Make a wish set, along with some lily white glitter cardstock, puffy stickers and the Birthday Bouquet Shaped Sprinkles.  The candles are also from the puffy sticker sheet.

Once untied, the album opens up to a series of alternating layered pages.  I used the puffy words stickers for the Make a wish along the bottom cover.  The pages are decorated with a mixture of papers from the 6x8 pad, Icon and Mini Icon Stickers, This & That Stickers, Odds & Ends, Chit Chat and Bits & Pieces.

And because I believe that everything is more fun when you can see it in action, I created this flip through video.

I hope you've enjoyed my project today, thank you for stopping by to peek!

DOODLE CUTS - TAG MINI ALBUM | with Kathy

Have you seen all of the fun new Doodle Cuts?  They come in some fun shapes and are perfect for cardmaking and scrapbooking!  I used a bunch of the new dies to create this tag mini album.  My daughter spent last summer working and living in NYC.  She celebrated her 21st Birthday there... which actually turned into a month of celebrations.  Lucky for me she shared lots of pictures, (and honestly I stole some from Instagram, lol) which I printed up for this fun mini.  Take a peek...

I used the big tag from the Large Tags Doodle Cuts as the base of my album.  I printed my photos about 1.75" square, which was the perfect size to fit the tags and leave room for some embellishments.  The papers and embellishments are from the adorable Hey Cupcake Collection.

For my cover, I added one of the Nesting Scallops Doodle Cuts to frame my title.  The Happy stamp is from the Happy Birthday Doodle Stamps, and the cute little champagne bottle is from the Occasions Holidays Doodle Stamp set.  Here are some close-ups of the inside pages...

The stickers from the mini icons sheet were the perfect size to decorate my tags.  I also added stickers from the This and That sheet and some Chit Chat pieces.  The wine glasses stamp is from the Occasions Everyday Doodle Stamps set.

The Borders and Edges Doodle Cut dies were an easy way to embellish my tags.  I also added a few of the smaller tags from the Mini Tags Doodle Cuts in between my larger tags for embellishment.  My favorite is the clear shaker tag I made by cutting 2 of the larger tags from a sheet protector, stitching and filling with some Doodlebug Sequins.

To complete the album, I created a little tassel using some Doodlebug Chunky Twine.  My daughter loved this little collection of pictures.  Tag minis are really a great way to scrap a small number of photos.  They make great gifts too!

You can really make so many different types of projects with the new  Doodle Cuts and Doodle Stamps.  They are good for planners, cards, scrapbook pages.... just about anything you can think of!  If you've used them in your projects, be sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Facebook and Instagram.  We love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
