6X8 ALBUM - Doodlebug Design

 I am loving the new 6x8 Doodlebug albums, I love documenting in a small format!  So, I wanted to share with  you how I am using my Cupcake 6x8 album to start documenting my December 2023 memories..

I always start my albums with a title page, that way it creates a beginning to the stories it holds.  For this album, I wanted something fun and colorful.

I chose to trim one of the premade pages that come in the album into a circular shape, making sure that the binding holes are included, so the page can be secured to the album.  Next I reached for the Tinsel Time Shadow Box Kit to build my page

I cut the vellum in the kit to a 1/2" smaller than the page, and use the template in the Box Kit to attach the stickers and sprinkles. I used foam adhesive to pop the "December" Chit Chat piece and added Alphabet Soup - Ladybug- complete the title of the page.   I backed the vellum with a piece of white cardstock before gluing it to the premade shaped page.

I added a few personal notes to the back of the circle page, then decided to jump into a fun idea  to document a story with multiple photos.  Make an interactive pocket page spread!

For the pocket portion of the spread, I kept it simple with one of the cards from the Happy Hollydays paper, and I made the other card using a piece of Tinsel Time paper, Stickers and puffy stickers.   I kept the pockets simple as I am adding a larger pocket next to it.

I created the tags with the two sides of the Snow Bright paper.  I added my photos and embellishments from the Tinsel Time collection, and still have space to add more photos to the back of the tags, or add more tags in the pocket featured in this page.

I am using a piece of Tinsel Time paper and Berry Merry to create my pocket.  A few stickers complement the colors and match the feel in the pocket page.  I then added my journaling in one of the large journaling cards from the Christmas Candy paper, and added it to the pocket. I just love how all these page came together.  There is so much you can do and store in your 6x8 Albums, be sure to check them out!
