DOWN ON THE FARM ON THE FARM LAYOUT | with Nathalie

We all love farm adventures!  My kids (now adults) still love going for small trips to farms and orchards.  Throughout the years we have collected so many memories of those trips, and I am using the fun Down on the Farm collection to document one of them.

All the little icons in the Bits and Pieces pack were just perfect to create a scene-type layout for my memories. 

I trimmed the Counting Sheep paper to create a curvature/hill for my background. I backed it with a Petite Print paper, then framed it with the Farmer Flannel paper.   Here is where I pulled pieces to create the small scene;  I had to add the tractor to match the one in the photo, and the small Doodle Pop just fit perfectly!

I placed my photos to the right of the scene. I used pieces of Chit Chat to add sentiments to the pictures.  Just love how it all lined up nicely!

To finish the page, I added a title using  a mix of embellishments at the bottom of the page.  Everything just fits perfectly in the scene.

I cannot wait to continue documenting more Farm adventures with the Down on the Farm collection.   Be sure to check the collection out!!

XOXO

DOWN ON THE FARM POP UP CARDS | with Kathy

Down on the Farm is one of my all-time favorite collections.  The little critters are absolutely adorable! The cows, pigs and sheep just make me smile!  I decided to make a few pop up cards using some of the stickers from the collection.  I love how there's always plenty of icons to make up little scenes!  Take a peek...

I love the punny sentiments in this collection.  They make it easy to create cards that are more "all purpose", springy cards.  The first card I created was with the little cow.  He is udder-ly adorable. And really... "Cow's it Going?"... just perfect.



My next card features those fluffy sheep and the little chicken.   They're having a great day hanging in the meadow.



My last card features the chubby little piggies, hanging out in some mud puddles... They really are "Sow Sweet!"  My favorite part is the little worm popping up on the front of the card!


As I said, I love how all Doodlebug collections contain a variety of icons that allow you to build some fun little scenes!  Have you created any projects using the Down on the Farm Collection?  Make sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Facebook and Instagram, we love to see what you create!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

DOWN ON THE FARM TRACTOR MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hey everyone! I have another fun mini album to share with you today that uses the adorable Down on the Farm Collection. This one is shaped like a little green tractor and it's filled with the cutest farm animals and lots of colorful prints!

To make the shaped album, I used the Tractor On The Farm cutting file and cut it out of white and black acrylic. You could easily cut this out of cardstock instead. I covered the front of the tractor in a petite prints linen (limeade) and a few parts in the wood grain (citrus).

I added the cute little farmer from the mini icon stickers, a few heart sprinkles and two red enamel dots for the tires. Oh my goodness, Doodlebug collections inspire such fun projects! 

Inside, there 12 pages (6 double-sided) made out of white card stock. I covered each one in a different print from the 6x6 paper pad. Those little patterns are so stinkin' cute! 

I've added lots of sweet die cuts from the Odds and Ends to each page, like these little sheep. They're twinsies!

On a few of the pages, I've added sticker words like the "country" in this photo. They're from the This and That sticker sheet.


I love all the pretty flowers on this page! I think the 6x6 smaller patterned paper looks great in the background with the larger die cut flowers on top.


These rectangular mats are perfect for small photos. They're approx. 2.25" x 2.75". And right next to it is the sweetest little pink pig!! He might be my favorite. He looks so proud!


This mini album would be great for cute everyday photos, from a day at the farm, a petting zoo, a farmer's market, a school field trip, a farm themed birthday party or a baby shower.

If you grew up on a farm, live on one now, or just love this sweet farm themed collection ... this would be a great project for your memories.


Thanks for stopping by today! I hope this Tractor Mini Album inspires you to create something fun with the Down On The Farm collection.
