Hangin' with My Gnomies Scrapbook Album

Hello everyone! I just added an adorable new album to my shop called Hangin' with my Gnomies'. I'm really looking forward to spring and these cute little gnomes, flowers, buzzing bees, and sunny rainbows are making me so happy! This mini is filled with fresh colors in Woodland hues of greens, oranges and yellows. Love.

This would make a great keepsake for photos of spring, summer, friends, family, and fun everyday moments. Add photos of a day of gardening, the kiddos, an afternoon at the park, enjoying nature, coffee with friends, or a trip to the botanical gardens.

I designed this with the adorable PhotoPlay, Tulla and Norbert Collection and a 6x8 inch chipboard album by 49 & Market. The album has 12+ pages that include interactive flippies, fold-out pages, pockets, and space for at least 30 photos.

I love this nature / woodland theme. Garden themed nurseries are classic so this could be perfect for pictures of a baby shower or as a gift. With sayings like "Hello Sunshine", "Gnome Sweet Gnome" and "It's the Little Things" - it would be adorable for new baby pics.

This would be an awesome keepsake for photos of a girls weekend, a fun tea party, or a birthday party. Maybe your teenagers have special photos with friends that need a space to be saved. 

There are so many gnomes scattered throughout the pages. These fairy tale characters are thought to be guardians of underground treasure and are known to plant wildflowers wherever they go. Oh... I need some gnomes in my yard. Treasure and flowers? Yes please! Thanks so much for stopping by ...

Update: This kit has sold out but the instructions are available in my shop. They are simple, step-by-step, and include full color photos of each page. Links for the instructions and the products used are below. Happy scrappin'!

Heart Shaped Love Notes Scrapbook Mini Album

Hi friends! It's time for my next Doodlebug Design Team Project and this one is perfect for Valentine's Day. It's a heart shaped mini album made with the wonderful Love Notes Collection. It's filled with pretty flowers, cute birds, mail, and my favorite Doodlebug colors ... cherry, bumblebee, and pistachio. It makes me so happy!

To make this, I cut 6 heart shaped pages out of white cardstock and layered them (front and back) with pretty 6x6 pattern papers and petite prints. Next, I punched a hole in each one for the binder ring.

Time to embellish. On the cover, I added lots of cute die cuts, stickers, enamel sprinkles, and 2 Doodle-pops. The envelope with the flowers is called Sending Love and the birds are called Tweathearts (links below).

Inside, I placed a second flower cluster back-to-back with the one on the front so they'd match. There were two of them in the Odds & Ends package, so I was able to extend them off the page without the white backs showing. I added some shape sprinkles then, the "Love you bunches" sticker from the This & That sheet.

 

 

Here, I made the cute photo mat using a scalloped circle punch and a circle punch from Marvy Uchida. The matching flower cluster is from the icon stickers and I added sprinkles throughout the album for a little shine.

 

Oooo, I love this pretty pink page. I used the Petite Prints Dot and Stripe in cupcake for the background, then added the Forever Plaid and yellow border stickers across the middle. Next came the photo mat, another flower die cut, and some enamel glitter dots!

 

The Sweat Hearts paper on this page is the perfect backdrop for the folding card in the center. The pink mat is actually a 3x3 Doodlebug card that lifts up to reveal space for two photos or journaling! 

 

 

How cute are these pages? I added more little birds from the Tweathearts Doodle-pops, the clipboard is a mini icon sticker, and the scallop "love you" circle is a This & That sticker. I'm pretty sure I used every type of embellishment in this collection!

 

Check out the cute heart banner on the green page above. I added little enamel hearts on top to give them some dimension and shine. Love it!

I had so much fun with this sweet little album and I hope these pretty colors and embellishments have inspired you to be crafty today! What will you make with the Love Notes Collection?

Although this doesn't have to be for Valentine's Day, that occasion isn't far off. This would be great for all those selfies of you and your sweetie.

These pages aren't overly romantic so they can be used for any occasion where you're with someone you love. With sayings like "You Make My Heart Smile", your kids or grandkids pics would be adorable on these pages! Or pics of matching mommy & me outfits!

Winter Snowflake Photo Wall Hanging with Doodlebug

Sometimes when I see a new product I get an idea for using it right away.  That's what happened when I saw the acetate snowflakes in the Winter Wonderland Odds & Ends.  I just thought they would be so pretty hanging down from a wall or mobile!

To make this wall hanging, which I also think will be pretty in front of a window, I laid out all of the acetate snowflakes on my craft table first.  This helped with picking sizes and colors.  Then I used a 1/16" hole punch to punch two tiny holes in each piece. 

I used fishing line to string the snowflakes and added a Doodlebug jewel to the front and back of each one.

I added a few snowman sprinkles here and there, and weighted the bottom of the fishing line with two large jewels back to back.

Finally, I added washi tape, die cuts, and ribbon to a thin piece of wood, and hung each strand of snowflakes across the back. 

It really looks so pretty hanging over my corner desk in my craft room, but would also be great in front of a window!  Another idea would be to hang the strands around a decorated embroidery hoop!  Thanks for checking in today, and hopefully I've given you another idea for using these beautiful acetate snowflakes and jewels!
