HELLO AGAIN USING 6x6 PAPER ON 12x12 LAYOUTS | With Traci

Hi everyone! Traci here and today I have two colorful 12x12 scrapbook layouts to share with you. My focus was to use paper from the Hello Again 6x6 paper pad in a creative way so that they'd coordinate and each have a unique design. Take a look ...

For both layouts, I used the 12x12 Patchwork Plaid print as the base. It has all the gorgeous Hello Again colors and the geometric pattern makes for a great background.

On this first page, I added a sheet of lily white card stock. Next, I cut the 6x6 paper into squares (2 3/4"x 2 3/4") and then cut them in half diagonally. I arranged the pieces in a heart shape ... like a quilt pattern!

For embellishments, I added the super cute Bit of Happiness Doodle-pops. I'm loving the metallic gold! I also used some die cuts from the Odds & Ends, Chit Chat, and a few word stickers from the This and That sheet. Finally, I sprinkled around a few gold hearts from the puffy shapes and ... she was complete! 

For the second page, I added the petite prints candy stripe & sprinkles in bubblegum and another piece of lily white card stock. I created my favorite grid layout and used the 6x6 pattern paper for my nine 3 1/4 x 3 1/4" squares.

I used lots of goodies on this layout. The books in the photo above are from the icon stickers. The butterflies are from the Odds & Ends. Then, I added the gold puffy hearts and a beautiful gold enamel dot sprinkle.

In another square, I used the globe from the Odds & Ends and added the Love You piece from the Chit Chat on top. And ... more gold enamel dot sprinkles, of course!

I love creating different projects with the Hello Again collection. Such pretty colors, icons, and touches of gold. I hope this collection and these pages inspire you to use your 6x6 paper pads on 12x12 layouts! Happy scrappin'!

HELLO AGAIN TRAVELERS NOTEBOOK | with Erica

Hello friends! I am excited to be back sharing another project using the Hello Again collection from Doodlebug Design!

My project today was inspired by the beautiful Gold Dot Acetate in the Hello Again collection. I decided to create a mini album and use the acetate as the cover.

To start the album I first trimmed down a piece of the acetate. My album size is 8.25"x5.50" and it is the most adorable album that is ready to fill up with memories! I trimmed down different pattern papers from the Hello Again collection in different sizes. I love to add pages in different sizes and shapes into my albums.

This album has fun pockets and flip outs for even more photos and journaling! I ran the base pages through my sewing machine to add some texture and interest to my pages.

Adding shaped pages in your album like this large circle adds a nice little surprise to your book! It adds interest and it is just a fun and easy element to add to the album.

These albums are super easy to create and a great way to use up scraps from a collection. There is no wrong way to create these albums and there a many different ways to bind them. The easiest would be to just add them into one of the Doodlebug Design Travelers Notebook covers. The pages are easy to add to the elastic bands and the notebook cover protects the pages and even has pockets!

For my album I just used some pink stretchy cord to bind all my pages and it will make it super easy if I want to add more pages to my book! I just love how this album came together! If you would be interested in a tutorial on how to create the base of this album leave me a comment down below! Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today!

HELLO AGAIN ALTERED SHADOW BOX INSERT | with Karen

Hello again! It's Karen with another, well...Hello Again... project (Sorry, that was a really bad start)! This awesome collection is full of florals and fun icons and I wanted to celebrate all of that today. So I decided to feature the amazing Shadow Box Insert together with some amazing floral die cuts created with the Butterfly Wishes Doodle Cuts.

    

If you haven't seen the Shadow Box inserts yet, they are amazing little "all in one" projects that come with all everything you need to create amazing 8"x8" inserts that fit perfectly in a shadow box. They even come with the template you can tape your vellum over top and simply place all of the stickers down. My daughters have come to love these projects and I find they make really good project for craft nights.

   

 

But I also wanted to show you that it is easy to customize the kits as well. I have a huge passion for paper flowers and I love adding them to projects, so I decided to see if I could add some effectively here. Using the Butterfly Wishes Doodle Cuts, which just so happen to have some beautiful floral dies in the set, I cut and layered some flowers using the 6x6 paper pack for this collection.

   

Then, instead of using some of the stickers that were in the original template, I used the flowers at the bottom of my piece, filling in some of the empty spaces with some of the original stickers that I didn't use. If you look in the picture above, you will see that template in the background. Below the wheel of the bicycle, you can see the modification I made with the die cut flowers. It was an easy change that just added a little bit of something personal to me.

   

These inserts make a beautiful addition to your décor and you can switch them out for the seasons. Keep them as they are or have a little fun and change things up. Either way, I know you will love it! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
