ENJOY SUNNY DAYS - Doodlebug

Summer is coming to an end! Thankfully we have all the memories of sunny days and adventures, and the beautiful SUMMER FUN collection to create the right keepsakes with these memories. All the colors and designs in the collection are just perfect for this.  Let me show you what I have created:






Lots of color and texture to bring the feel of a day in the pool for this layout.    The waves in the pool in the picture were the inspiration for my page.






I am using Pettite Prints for the base of my page;  this was trimmed by 1/2"and all sides and framed with the Beach Towel paper.  I added  the scalloped strips from the Cardstock Stickers to the top and bottom of  the base, then tore strips from the Water Babies paper -to create waves- and adhere them  in an overlapping pattern on the base.







The space between the "waves"-paper strips- was the right spot to bring embellishment and fun to the page.   I added pieces from the Odds & Ends, Mini Icon Stickers, Puffy stickers on the outer edges of the strips, then decided to attach my photo.





I backed the photo with papers from the 6x8 paper pad before placing it on the layout.  I added a few pieces of Chit Chat, cardstock stickers, and one of the Doodlepop cameras to the top right corner of the photo.







To finish my page, I combined pieces from Chit Chat, Word Puffy Stickers, and Odds & Ends to create the title at the bottom of the photo; then added a few Sprinkles through the clusters on the page.

I love how this turned out, and I hope it inspires you to get your Summer memories documented.   Make sure you share with us what you create with the beautiful Summer Fun collection

SPLISH SPLASH FUN IN THE SUN - Doodlebug Design

It is the season of sunshine, beach, and fun!  And I am so glad that the beautiful Summer Fun collection is here to help me document all those fun and colorful memories with it.  I think all the fun designs and vibrant colors are just the perfect complement to our sun filled memories. Let me show you what I created: 








I  wanted a design that would bring your eyes to the photo but at the same time showcase the fun look of this collection. So, I set to construct a sunburst design for my page using different patterns from the collection.






I started by gluing half of the Water Babies paper to the bottom of the white cardstock from the Texture Cardstock Assortment, then selected a center point for the photo.  Once I marked the spot, then I pulled my 6x8 paper pad and started cutting some of the papers into triangular strips to fit on   the page.





I laid them on the page so that the triangular pieces start at the designed point on the page and cover the top part of the paper.   I made sure that the triangles fan out of the center point marked, lay flat on the page, and then trimmed the excess outside of the layout.







Once the sunburst design was complete, I set the photo onto  a piece of the Let's Luau paper and set it atop of the joining point of the papers.   Next, I mixed pieces from Chit Chat, This & That stickers, mini sticker icons, and icon stickers to create clusters at the top left and bottom right corners of the photo.








Once the title was set on place, I then needed to balance the page by adding a smaller cluster at the bottom of the page.  This time, I pulled some of the This & That stickers and added a few icon stickers to complete the page.

I love how this turned out, and I hope it inspires you to pull your Summer Fun collection to document your fun filled memories.

SUMMER TIME - Doodllebug Design

The new Summer Fun collection is here, and I am so excited to get all those fun memories documented with this fun, colorful, and cute collection.  This collection is so easy to work with it pretty much made it so easy to put this layout together.





I wanted a design that will showcase that would showcase the patterned papers in this collection, and decided to use them to create  my background.






I started with one of the coordinating cardstock for the background of this spread.  Then used a combination of papers from the 6x8 Paper pad to build the triangles at the base of the page, then I cut pieces from Gull Friends and Let's Luau to create the top triangles on the layout.  I also added one of the scalloped edges to the top edges of the bottom triangles.









To make the photos showcase on the layout, I used patterned paper from the 6x8 paper pad to create frames behind them.  I set them atop the bottom triangles using foam adhesive. A mix of Bits and Pieces, Chit Chat and stickers help  to create clusters at the corners of the photos.







To finish my layout, I used Chit Chat to create my title and tie the two sides of the layout together.  A few pops of color using Sprinkles just brings it all together.

I love how this turned out, and I hope  it inspires you to document your memories using the new Summer Fun collection,
