SPOOKTACULAR CREW - Doodlebug Design

Fall is here!  That means the holidays are coming, lots of memories to be had, and document especially with the new Doodlebug collections.   I am loving the new Sweet & Spooky collection, and though my kids are adults now, I am digging through my memories for some past Halloween pictures for my project with this collection.   Let's take a look at what I have created :





My starting point for this project was the new Home Sweet Home Chipboard Album.   I used the pieces of the album as a template to create my house from patterned papers from the collection.





I simply used a pencil to trace the pieces, then a craft knife to cut all the pieces.   It was fun to piece the house together for my layout.   I added a few extra puffy stickers, and sprinkles to give it a spooky feeling.   The trees in the Bits and Pieces package and sticker sheets  help to create the eerie feel of the home.




For my background, I am using white cardstock, however I am framing the entire page with Moonlight Magic paper.    Once I set the house in place, I then added the moon and clouds from the Bits and Pieces pack, and the  small puffy bat sticker.




I am using a piece of the Trick or Treat paper to anchor the page and photos to the layout.   This paper also helped with adding a few extra embellishments and the title of this layout (gotta love the Chit Chat pack!).  I added a few sprinkles and drops of black shimmer ink to finish the page.




I love how this turned out! and I am sure that you are all ready to start your Halloween documenting.  Be sure to check the new Sweet & Spooky collection... It is Spook-tacular!

GOOD COFFEE TIMES - Doodlebug Design

 Raise your hand if you love coffee as much as I do!  I can sincerely say that it is my favorite drink and addiction. So, imagine how happy I was to find all the coffee icons in the Hello Again collection, and used them to document my coffee routine.






I took advantage of the tags in the Just Because paper to create this page.  I cut 8 of the tags,  and  attached my pictures to some of them





I attached all the tags onto a Cupcake Floral/Grid Petite Print so they create a grid on the page.   I added a bit of Gray Doodle twine through the tags, so they are anchored to the page.  To finish the set up, I framed the page with the Forever Flowers paper.






It was all then about embellishing each of the tags.  First, I set the tags on alternate spots, then added pieces of Chit Chat and Bits and Pieces to the empty tags. The foiling just add that special touch to the page.





I am using Alphabet Soup Puffy Alpha Stickers and Puffy Stickers to number each of the coffee cups in  their corresponding order.  I added a few gems to the tags that do not have photos in them!




To complete the page, I once again mixed Bits and Pieces, Chit Chat, and Alpha Stickers to create my title at the bottom of the page.  A few extra sprinkles complete the page.





I love how this turned out! My coffee cup pictures truly shine with all the beautiful patterns and colors from the gorgeous Hello Again collection.  Be sure to check it out!

HELLO YOU & ME - Doodlebug Design

 I am sure that all of you are also loving the new HELLO AGAIN collection!  It is just so perfect for all sorts of  projects and memory keeping layouts.  Today, I decided to go for a clean and simple design for this layout.




I pulled my Doodle cuts Nesting Scallops to build this layout.  I wanted to add a bit of movement and bring a combination of patterns to the page.



I cut a few of the scallops from the 6x6 paper pad, as well as white cardstock.  I used the negative parts of the cuts to create the center of the scallops.   I also used the negative piece of the white cardstock cuts to frame my photo.




I set the scalloped die cuts on a piece of Petite Print paper as if they are cascading from the top of the page.  Foam adhesive helped me to construct the scallop formation.  Then it was all about embellishing the scalloped circles with a variety of elements from the collection.



 I set the title to the right of the photo.  I am using a mixture of Chit Chat, Alphabet Soup, and Doodle Pops to complete this.   A touch of gold and shimmer is always a nice addition!



I love how this turned out!  The new Hello Again collection will sure have you inspired!
