MONSTER MADNESS - MONSTERS IN THE CLOSET MINI ALBUM | with Jen

There might be monsters in your closet! Thankfully they're the super cute Doodlebug kind! This week I'm working with the adorable Monster Madness collection. I have always loved this collection and never had a chance to work with it when it first came out so I was THRILLED to get to use it for my project with week! 

I have made a very simple 5x7 mini album. The inspiration for this project was the Odds and Ends pieces with the monsters and ghost peeking out of the door. I used the Monster Madness Haunted Door SVG File available in the Lori Whitlock shop  to make the door for the front of my album. Rather than cutting the same monsters I used the Mini Monsters, Boo to You, and Candy Monster Doodle-Pops. I added my Spooky title from the Chit Chat pack. 

Inside are four pages, all with the same layout. I added a pocket to the front of each page and flap that I decorated like a door using the Monster Madness Solid Cardstock Pack. For doorknobs I used the Halloween Assortment Sprinkles. Each door also got a Chit Chat piece as door decor. 

Inside each pocket is an insert that fits 4x6 photos. There are monsters from the Odds and Ends pack hanging out on the edge of each insert so it looks like they are peeking out the doors as you flip through the album. 

On the last page of the album I added the Odds and Ends piece that inspired my album. 

On the back of the album I couldn't help myself,  I build a little scene using some more of the Odds and Ends. 

And of course I have a video walkthrough and full tutorial. I also have a free cutting guide on my website!

Have a great day!

MONSTER MADNESS PINK CAR MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I have the cutest Halloween project to share with you. It's a pink car shaped mini album that I made with the adorable Monster Madness Collection and a spooktacular cutting file. It's titled Be Scary and it's a fa-boo-lous little scrapbook for your fun holiday photos.

For the shape, I used the Odds & Ends die cuts as inspiration. I loved the pink car, so I chose the matching cut file called Monster Mash Pink Monster Car. I sized it to 8x6 inches and cut two covers out of white acrylic - but you could use card stock. Next, I chose the pink polka dot side of the 12x12 Mad Plaid paper for the car, the Petite Print Swiss Dot in pistachio for the rear window, and beetle black and grey textured solids. 

The cutting file comes with monsters, but I chose to use some funny little die cuts instead. Then, I added stars from the Midnight Magic shape sprinkles and two enamel dots from the Halloween assortment. And those teeny tiny adorable spiders ... they're from two different Doodle-pops - Eek and On the Web. So cute!

Inside, there are 12 white scrapbook pages that I covered in colorful patterns from the 6x6 paper pad. I added journaling cards from the 12x12 Stroke of Midnight print, more fun die cuts, and photo mats for my pictures.

On this page, I created a flippie using the spider journaling card. It has space for a photo inside, and one on the vibrant striped mat underneath. Aren't the colors in this Monster Madness collection fang-tastic? 😉 

It wouldn't be Halloween without a few ghosts, so I added this cute die cut with it's candelabra. And to light his way ... I added a few mini jewels!  

I love a good pocket for extra storage in a mini album. Here, I used the colorful striped Eye See You paper and tucked a couple of journaling cards and die cuts inside. The die cuts are white on the back, so you can add notes to them as well.

Check out this 6x6 paper filled with colorful little monsters. I added the Family die cut from the Chit Chat and more sparkle with mini jewels. What a cute way to highlight your Halloween photos.

This purple blob cracks me up with his toothy grin, his happy lollipop, and his wagon full of goodies! To zhuzh it up just a bit, I added an enamel dot to the cupcake and mini jewels to his tires.

Whether you're a scrapbooker, a card maker, or just love creating with paper ... this Monster Madness Collection is so fun for the Halloween season. It's bright, whimsical, and filled with playful characters, pumpkins, ghosts, spiders, and all kinds of sweet treats!

And there ya have it! I hope my Halloween car shaped mini album inspires you to create something special with the Monster Madness Collection and one of Doodlebug's cutting files! Have a boo-tiful day 😊
