SUMMER FUN - SUMMER FUN & SUN LAYOUT | with Tarrah

If you love sunshine, smiles, and everything cute under the sea, today's layout is for you! A vibrant and joy-filled layout created using the Summer Fun collection along with a cut file.

At first glance, this layout screams happy summer vibes! Centered around a sweet photo moment by the beach, the design is brought to life with bold colors, playful embellishments, and a perfect blend of patterns and textures. 

 

I love the papers from the Summer Fun collection. Each word in the cut file is backed with a different paper design, creating a playful, dimensional look. Under the cut file I added some blue mixed media, I love how it makes it the cut file pop off the white background cardstock. I layered one of the papers from the 6' x 8' paper pad under my photo.

I trimmed down the white cardstock and adhered it to the Beach Picnic patterned paper. The cut file is popped up using foam adhesive, I love how this creates shadows and dimension. The animals in this collection are absolutely adorable, on this layout I have added dolphins, jelly fish, sea horses, octopus, fish and a chameleon! 

With the embellishing I added some with a tone on tone look and some not tone on tone, the gorgeous, bright colors just had to be added as much as possible on my layout! I added a sub title taking the words Summer Awaits from the Chit Chat pack and adhering them using foam adhesive at the bottom of the cut file.

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

SUMMER FUN SHADOW BOX | with Miguel

Summer moments are magical and unforgettable, so I decided to create this shadow box with a beautiful photograph of an afternoon by the pool, giving it color and life with Doodlebug's beautiful Summer Fun collection.

For this composition, I cut several pieces of paper from the collection and made small rolls to incorporate them once I had prepared my base with cardstock and the wave acetate.

I previously painted a wooden frame with blue acrylic paint to give it that summer color.

Then I added my photo and started putting together my composition with Doodle-pops, shape sprinkles, and chit chat. I loved the result because it gave me a 3D effect, making it look more real. 

Thanks for reading. See you soon.

SUMMER FUN - SUMMER FUN LAYOUT | with Brianna

 Hey friends! Brianna back with you today with another layout using the absolutely amazing new Summer Fun collection. It's bright, bold and happy and I can't get enough of it!! Here's my page: 

I'm really enjoying creating with this collection and have been so inspired by it. This layout came together so quickly and I'm so happy with how it came out. I pulled out the 12x12 Beach Towel paper for my base and then trimmed the 12x12 Water Babies to a 10x12 size. I layered a piece of textured white cardstock that I had trimmed to a 9x12 and layered it right on top of the Water Babies paper.  I adhered both paper layers to my base and love how the colors really pop under that white cardstock. 

Next, I matted my photos twice using the 6x8 Paper Pad and popped them up on foam tape. I adhered them a little more towards the top of my page, right in the center. I had plans on having my title and a bunch of the die cuts down at the bottom of my page. 

I then chose a phrase from the Chit Chat pack and made sure to pop it up on foam tape as well. Everything on this page just really pops up off of the page!

I wanted to try out a different design layout and not only was it a fun process, but it was also a way for me to highlight some of the adorable icons from the Odds & Ends pack in the collection. The turtle and crab? So cute! I also sprinkled in a few Puffy Icons stickers as well as the adorable bubble stickers from the Summer Splash Shape Sprinkles.

Lastly, I wanted to include a few florals so I grabbed a large floral die cut from the Bits & Pieces pack and adhered it under my two photos. I also pulled in a few florals from the Icons Sticker sheet and added them at the top of my photos. This page is so bright and happy, just like my sweet girl. Our days are spent playing outside in the sunshine and I can't wait to document more memories with her using this beautiful collection. Here's one last look: 

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope I've inspired you in some way. I'll see you next time friends! xo,

SUMMER FUN SHADOW BOX MINI ALBUM | With Traci

Hey sweet friends! Traci here and today, I'm sharing a mini album I made with the adorable Summer Fun Collection and its Shadow Box Insert Kit. It's filled with cute summer images and lots of fun stickers, so this album would be great for photos of a vacation, the beach, fishing, swimming, a cruise, and everyday fun! 

I wanted to use the colorful insert kit in today's project so I chose my white 8x8 inch Acrylic Circle Window Album that highlights those amazing little stickers perfectly. But you could make the album's covers out of chipboard instead. 

I tied a bow in the corner and added the sweet Little Charmers crab called Coral to the ribbon.

The first page is the collage that I created with the Summer Fun Shadow Box Insert Kit. The kit comes with a circle template, card stock, vellum and tons of colorful stickers. You place the stickers on the vellum with the help of a template behind it and you end up with this amazing little piece of art!

The next page is made with the 12x12 Catch a Wave acetate. It's transparent with a wave pattern but tinted in the swimming pool blue color. Won't it make a cute layout with a few photos on the front and back?

The album also has 12 white card stock pages that I covered in 12x12 prints. Above, I layered the colorful Polka Dot Bikini paper, then the Let's Luau and Beach Picnic patterns. The photo mat is titled Summer Fun.

Next, I wanted the Memories die cut from the Odds & Ends to look like a hanging sign, so I used Chunky Twine in swimming pool and an enamel dot. Then, I added the Summer Time die cut from Chit Chat.

I love creating interactive elements in my albums. They add extra photo space and they're fun! In this mini, I created 2 fold-out pages, 1 pocket, and 3 flippies. Above is one of those flippies. I made it with a cute journaling card from the Summer School print. It's a perfect spot for dates, names, locations, and events.

Look how cute this page is! I used the Water Babies paper (front and back) for the background and colorful photo mats. I love those happy little sea creatures. Next, I added the fish and seahorse from the Odds & Ends, the Hello from the Chat Chat, and the tiny enamel fish from Summer School Shape Sprinkles. Love!

This photo shows one of the fold-out pages I added. The Seashells by the Seashore paper in the background is so colorful and coordinates perfectly with the Gull Friends print used for the photo mats and the gorgeous rainbow stripe Beach Towel paper inside the folding flap. 

Did you notice the 3 colorful patterned tabs on the edge of some of my layouts? They're die cuts from the Bits & Pieces and I love this extra little detail. They look great and you can use them to turn the pages. I also added the floral scalloped This & That border sticker on the page above. Isn't it pretty?

This collection is beautiful with its bright happy colors and variety of images / words to highlight your summer photos. There are sand castles, seashells, fish, and palm trees for beach memories. Suitcases, an airplane, a passport, room keys, and a cute pink hotel for your travel photos. And a cruise ship, sailboat, and anchors if you prefer to spend your time on top of the water, instead of in it. 😂

I hope my Adventure Awaits Mini Album inspires you to create something wonderful with the Summer Fun Collection. It's perfect for all kinds of crafting!

If you'd like to recreate this scrapbook, the acrylic album and instructions are available in my shop! Thanks for stopping by the blog today and happy scrappin'. 😊
