SUMMER FUN - OUR BEACH ADVENTURE LAYOUT | with Tarrah

 The vibrant and playful Summer Fun collection is like a match made in heaven for my colorful and vibrant photos of a recent trip to the beach huts at Brighton Beach, Victoria, Australia! If you’re anything like me and love capturing colorful beach days, this collection will have your heart from the first glance.

I chose the Water Babies 12' x 12' patterned paper as my background to mimic the sea, trimming it down and matting it on white cardstock, then trimmed down the white cardstock and matted it further on to the 'B' side of the Gull Friends 12' x 12' patterned paper to frame the design. I included three of our favorite snapshots from the day, matted with the bold stripey paper from the 6x8 paper pad for extra contrast.

I took 3 of the bright beach hut die-cuts from the Odds & Ends pack and lined them up using foam adhesive to the right of my main photo. I also placed the wave die-cut underneath and added some fish stickers over the waves from the Summer School Sprinkles Pack. The sun tucked in at the top of my larger photo is also from the Odds & Ends pack.

I layered some word and phrase stickers from the This and That cardstock sticker sheet on top of the middle beach hut die-cut, the pink tab sticker on the left of the large photo and the scalloped border sticker under my title are also both from the This & That sticker sheet. My title is from the Chit Chat pack and made up of 3 words - Beach is popped up using foam adhesive. Of course I could not go past adding some Doodle-Pops! I added the Palm Tree from the Palm Beach Doodle-Pop pack near my large photo and the seagull from the same pack to the top of one of the beach huts. I also added a few florals from the Flora Flamingo Doodle-Pop pack around my title  

The Summer Fun collection is an absolute must-have for scrapping your sunny days, beach holidays, and poolside pics. Its bold colors, whimsical patterns, and darling embellishments make storytelling a total breeze!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope this inspires you to dive into your summer memories and get creative with Doodlebug’s newest release! Happy creating!

SUMMER FUN - SUMMER TIME SHAKER MINI ALBUM | with Jen

There is so much to love about the new Summer Fun collection! The cute wave patterned acetate, the Bitty Bubbles and Fishies shakers, literally every piece in the Odds and Ends, Chit Chat, and Bits and Pieces - I used them all! Today I have a shaker cover mini album using the Summer Fun collection. 

The finished album measures 8" x 8" with a 2" spine. I used my Glowforge to cut the Summer Fun title into the spine and backed it with the Gull Friends paper. For the shaker on the front cover I used a mix of the Bitty Bubble and the Fishies shakers. Through the shaker you can see a photo mat inside the pocket on the front inside cover.

Inside we have three packed pages with lots of flaps for all your pictures. One of my favorite elements is the Polaroid-style cut-aparts on the Flamazing paper.  Here I've used it as the focal on the first page. 

I used the various Odds and Ends and Bits and Pieces to build ephemera clusters. On this page I used the flowers from the Bits and Pieces to build a floral cluster on the bottom corner of my flap. 

On the back page I used some leftover Summer Fun acetate for a photo mat. The mat is used to keep the flaps closed. I added Chit Chat and Odds and Ends on top of the small belly bands and under where my acetate photo mat sits. 

Underneath the flaps are two more held closed with a 4x6 photo mat. 

They open to a layout page with lots of photo mats. I used an assortment of Odds and Ends and Chit Chat to add finishing touches.
