FARMERS MARKET PUMPKIN FRESH LAYOUT | with Nathalie

Fall is right around the corner, that means lots of cozy feelings, crisp air, and lots of memories.  So what better way to get started than creating a new project with the beautiful Farmers Market collection.  It has the perfect color combo and all the cute designs you need to document your orchard/farm/patch visits, and Fall.  Let me show you what I have created:

I wanted to take advantage of all the color in this collection to make the photos of my little one the focal point of the page.

I selected the Fall Berries paper as the base for my page.   Then it was all about playing with paper to create layers for my photos. For this, I am using papers from the 6x6 paper pad, as well as Veggie Sticks paper. These were cut to form horizontal strips on the page. Then, I backed my photos with papers from the 6x6 paper pad and set them on the page.

Next, I set florals from Bits and Pieces to create clusters to the left side of the photos.   I also added stickers from This & That and some Chit Chat pieces to complete the clusters.

I continued with the floral clusters, however used a smaller scaled  icons for the ones that sit on the right of the photo.  The stickers in the Icon Sticker sheet were the perfect size for this.  I added a few more pieces of Chit Chat and Sprinkles to complete this.

To finish my page, I combine pieces from Chit Chat , This & That and one of the cute Doodle-pops to create the title at the very bottom part of the layout.   A few Sprinkles scattered around the clusters help bring it all together.

I love how this turned out and I hope it inspires you to take out your Farmer's Market collection and get playing with it!! XO

FARMERS MARKET OUR FAMILY MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hi friends! Traci here and today, I have a new project for fall that I made with the fabulous Farmer's Market Collection. As summer fades and autumn begins, we start to see changes in the colorful landscape, feel cooler temperatures, and have fun activities to look forward to. So, it's a great time for a new scrapbook!

I designed this with one of my white 5" x 4.5" acrylic mini albums. But, you could always use cardstock or chipboard for the covers instead. OK, time to decorate!

On the cover, I layered some colorful 6x6 papers. I chose the Market Preserves print with a cute polka dot on one side and lots of fun jars on the other. I used both, then added the beehive pattern called Bee Happy and the 4x4 "our family memories" card from the 12x12 Veggie Sticks paper. 

Inside, I added 12 white cardstock pages (24 scrapbook layouts) to fill with Doodlebug's amazing fall colors, 6x6 pattern papers, and super fun embellishments. On the page above, I added a photo mat and the adorable little bee and jar of flowers icon stickers. So cute!

This next page is perfect for a picture of a pumpkin patch. I covered the layout in bright colorful stripes from the 6x6 Veggie Sticks paper, then decorated it with the pumpkins icon sticker and saying from the 12x12 Veggie Sticks paper. 

I love to have embellishments popping out of the top of my albums. It expands the usable space on smaller pages AND adds visual interest. Here, I chose 3 die cuts from the Bits & Pieces. The round one could be used for photos or journaling. But the cutest part is ... the sweet kitty cat icon sticker in the center!

The Farmer's Market Collection is filled with such vibrant happy fall colors. This gorgeous plaid print is titled Farm Fresh and it's a great example. Love the unexpected touch of purple!

Here is 1 of the 3 pockets I created in this scrapbook. I used the front and back of the 6x6 Bee Happy print to cover the page and pocket, then added the orange pickup truck icon sticker. Can you tell I'm having fun with the icon stickers in this collection? They're so adorable!

Inside the pocket, I added a photo mat and more die cuts from the Bits & Pieces. I love their fun shapes. I chose the floral tag and the lined notepad paper to use for extra photos and journaling.

On this page, I used the 6x6 Market Preserves print in the background. So many little jars filled with colorful veggies! Next, I added the tag from the Bits & pieces, extended it off the page, and tied a piece of tangerine Chunky Doodle Twine to it. Then, I made a photo mat and added 2 tiny critters from the icon stickers. How stinkin' cute is that ladybug and mouse?! 🧡

Next, a fun interactive fold-out page! I used the whimsical polka dot print called Fall Berries in the background, then added a few leaves and a precious dog icon sticker. On the flap, I made a photo mat that is ALSO ... a flippie with a pretty journaling card inside! It's a great place to list autumn activities.

Doodlebug's Farmer's Market Collection is perfect for ALL your fall crafts whether it's a card, scrapbook layouts, a mini album, or any other paper crafting. I love it and I know you will too!

If you'd like to recreate my Our Family Memories Mini Album, I'll be offering the DIY scrapbook kit in my shop tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a great day!

SUMMER FUN JUNK JOURNAL | with Jen

I love junk journals. I've done lots with old Little Golden Books and other things, they're so freeing. You can do whatever you want and whatever feels right in the moment. So for this week's project I decided to decided to push myself and do a different kind of junk journal with my scraps and leftover ephemera. 

I made my cover from some leftover Summer Fun Acetate. I cut it to 7" x 12" and scored it at 5 1/2" and 6 1/2". I punched holes on the top and bottom and added elastic cord. On the front I used stickers from the This and That sticker sheet. At the top I used my Tiny Attacher to add some pieces from the Odds and Ends and Bits and Pieces. I also added a traveler's notebook style closure with some more of the elastic cord. 

Inside are two signatures. For the base of each signature I used leftover papers (Let's Luau and Paradise Palms). Inside I used the Summer Card and Envelope pack to make the pages of each signature. The envelopes work great as pockets. Most of the envelopes I fold in half so half the envelope is on one side and half is on the other. 

As a small, but fun, decoration on some of the envelopes I used the new Flamazing Doodle Stamps, as well as Sea Life and Seaside Summer Doodle Stamps in places. I just thought it was a fun way to use those stamp sets. 

To finish things, I distressed and inked papers to create pockets and other elements. I used a couple of leftover Doodle Pops and and lots of extra Odds and Ends.

I have a video walkthrough and a short process video of how I put my base and signatures together below. 

Have a great day!

SUMMER FUN ADVENTURE MINI ALBUM | with Conny

Hello Crafty Friends! This is Conny from The Daily Life of Creativity with my second project using the Summer Fun Collection by Doodlebug Design. If you missed the first project, watch the process video here. I created another beautiful mini album using this same collection,  this time using the cards and envelopes - no chipboard needed!

I used the Summer Assortments Card pack, which comes with six card bases and six envelopes. I originally planned to create an accordion-style mini album, but I wanted to give it a little twist. I started by making the accordion-style base, using both smaller and larger card bases. For the front section, I used the smaller card base measuring 5½” x 4¼”. You will need two of these. For the back section of the accordion, I used the card base measuring 4½” x 6¼”.

Inside the back card base (4½” x 6¼”), I added another smaller slim card measuring 3¼” x 6¼” for extra layers and interaction. On top of the slim card in the back, I layered a blue envelope, perfect for tucking in fun little bits and pieces. Behind the envelope, I adhered a piece of yellow cardstock from the coordinating cardstock pack, measuring 6” x 4”. On the opposite side, I used a sheet from the 6x8 paper pad featuring 3x4 cut-apart cards. I folded the sheet in half across the 3x4 cards and attached it to a flap, creating an opening pocket so you can slide items inside. To finish it off, I added coordinating cardstock to one side of the 3x4 cards to create a dedicated space for photos.

For the cover page, I started with the Seashells by the Seashore patterned paper, cut to 5¼” x 4”. On top of that, I layered the coordinating orange cardstock, cut to 3½” x 4¾”. Next, I added the Summer Fun circle sticker using foam adhesive for dimension. The little umbrella from the Odds & Ends pack was also popped up on foam adhesive. To the right, I placed the Palm Beach Doodle-Pop sticker, and the word Adventure (from the Chit Chat Ephemera pack) also adhered with foam adhesive for extra lift. Finally, I tucked in a few small flower stickers from the mini sticker sheet to complete the cover design.

For the next page, I used a Summer Fun patterned paper and cut it to 10½” x 4”. On the 10½” side, I scored at 5¼”, then adhered it directly onto the card base. On the front flap, I added the “Best Vacation Ever” sentiment from the Chit Chat pack, along with a palm tree from the Odds & Ends pack. I also included the Paradise tab, a small crab sticker from the Mini Icons sticker sheet, and the Aloha puffy sticker. This flap opens by pulling the Paradise tab. When fully opened, there is space for two photos. Inside, I placed a “Life Is But a Dream” ephemera piece to complete it. 

For the Thinking of You page, I matted the base with a piece measuring 5¼” x 4”. I used the Water Babies patterned paper from the 12” x 12” sheet, which is also available in the 6” x 8” paper pad. I decorated the page with a small crab from the Sticker Book and the “Thinking of You” sentiment from the Chit Chat pack, adding a little fish sticker for a playful touch. The sentiment is only adhered to the corner, so you can easily tuck a photo underneath it.

For the Hello Sunny Days / Happy Birthday page, I started by matting the top section with Water Babies patterned paper (also found in the 6” x 8” paper pad) cut to 5¼” x 4”. Along the bottom edge of this panel, I added a floral border strip for a pop of color. At the top, I placed the “Hello Sunny Days” title from the Chit Chat ephemera pack. On the right edge, I attached the Hello Beautiful tag from the Odds & Ends pack, allowing it to act as a decorative tab. For the bottom section, I matted a piece of coordinating patterned paper to 5¼” x 4”, then layered yellow cardstock on top, cut slightly smaller, to serve as a photo mat. At the bottom, I added the Happy Birthday sentiment from the sticker sheet, along with the adorable little octopus sticker.

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you’re inspired to recreate this project. This album is completely chipboard-free, so if you’ve ever been intimidated by building albums with chipboard and wrapping paper, this one is right up your alley! You can use any card bases you have on hand or even create your own and decorate them with the Summer Fun Collection by Doodlebug Design. As always, thank you for visiting, and I love you all! With love,  Conny

SUMMER FUN - SUMMER FUN MINI FOLIO | with Jen

I absolutely the adore the 6x8 paper pads from Doodlebug. You get 24 papers for a reasonable price and they are adorable. They are perfect for cards and smaller non-card projects and that's what I have for you!

Today I have a simple folio using one 6x8 Summer Fun paper pad. I had quite a bit left over and will probably use if for more photo mats. This goes together super quick and of course there is a tutorial!

One the cover I took some of the large stickers from the This and That sticker sheet, matted them on white cardstock and fussy cut them. I took one of the sentiment stickers from the same sheet and added it as a sentiment. I finished it, with a border sticker and the Diggin' Summer sandcastle Doodle-pop. 

Inside I used the title page from the 6x8 pad and added some of the Tropical Trio Doodle-pops to decorate it. On the opposite side I added a 4x6 photo mat and used some Icon Stickers and Puffy Words to add a title to the page. I finished it with the little toucan from the Tropical Trio Doodle-pop set.

On the left side, under the top flap I added a pocket that I matted with one of the 4x6 cut-aparts from the Summer Fun 6x8 paper pad. I also used the border sheet and the journaling cut-aparts. I added the last animal from the Tropical Trio Doodle Pop set and a couple of the flowers from the Puffy Words stickers. 

On another left side flap I added another 4x6 photo mat with a title from the Puffy Words stickers and decorated with Icon Stickers. 

On the right side of the folio I added belly bands and pockets.  I decorated these pages with Puffy Words, Sam and Sally Seahorse Doodle-pops, and Icon stickers. It was so fun to use the Puffy Words in a different way!

And of course there is full video walkthrough and tutorial!

Have a great day!
