PRETTY KITTY SHADOW BOX CARDS | with Kathy

Kitties, and Doodlebug... two of my most favorite things!  The Pretty Kitty Collection has just filled my head with so many ideas, it was hard to choose one, but I finally decided to make some fun Shadow Box Cards.  Take a peek...

For the base of my card, I modified a Shadow Box Card from Lori Whitlock.  I then resized the file to be more in line with the size of the kitties from the Odds & Ends pack.

For my first card, I created a little fish bowl.  I added a piece of acetate behind the bowl so I could put the little fish from the Purr-fect Pals Shaped Sprinkles inside the bowl.  I love the little orange kitty crouching down, and thought he would be cute, peeking at the fish!

I finished the card with the hello sticker from the This & That Sticker Sheet.

For my next card, I was inspired by the Kitty in the window from the Odds & Ends.  My kitties will sit in the window watching birds all day!

I made a little flower box in the window using the Backyard Bunch Shaped Sprinkles, and the sentiment is also from the This & That Sticker Sheet.  I can almost hear the kitty "chirping" at the bird!

I can't wait to send these cards off to my favorite crazy cat people!  Have you created any projects using the Pretty Kitty Collection?  Be sure to tag Doodlebug on Facebook & Instagram.  We love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

SIMPLY SPRING | Shadow Box Cards with Kathy

It's been a long winter here in the New England... I'm more than ready for some spring and good weather!  So you can imagine how excited I was to get my Doodlebug box full of then new Simply Spring Collection.  I love every single thing about this collection!  The colors, the patterns, the embellishments... I've said it before and I'll say it again, only Doodlebug can make a bug that is cute!  I immediately ran into my craft room and started playing! I created these fun Shadow Box cards...

I love Shadow Box Cards, and the Odds & Ends Pieces from the Simply Spring Collection made it so easy to create fun little scenes.  I started with the cute little blue birds, and the punny Happy Birdie to You sentiment from the Chit Chat pieces.  How cute is that little bumble bee from the Little Critters Shaped Sprinkles??

My next card features the cute little frog from the Odds & Ends, and the Hoppy Birthday Sentiment.  For my little scene I added a couple of Doodlebug cut files, the Fox Tails are from the On The Farm Cut File Collection and the Lily Pad is from the Pot O' Gold Cut Files.  To finish it off I added the cute little dragon fly from the Little Critters Sprinkles.

For my last card I used a lot of the flowers from the Odds & Ends to make a little "garden" for the little bumblebees to fly around.  I also added a couple of the cute little flower shaped sprinkles from the May Flowers Shaped Sprinkles.

I have so many more ideas for this fun collection, I may have to stock up on more!!  Have you made anything using the Simply Spring Collection?  Be sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Social media, we would love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
