FARMHOUSE HOMESPUN CARDS | with Tya

Step into the charm of country living with my latest handmade cards! Using the adorable Farmhouse collection and the coordinating Cards and Envelopes Kit, I've created six unique cards that capture all the warmth and whimsy of this delightful new collection!

Let's look at each of the cards! This first card is a burst of autumn charm, featuring bright pops of color that Doodlebug is famous for! The centerpiece is the sweet fruit stand from the Odds and Ends, brimming with seasonal delights! The little fox watches over the stand adding more whimsy The card comes to life with dimensional details like the pumpkin and flowers from the Puffy Stickers.

My next card is a delightful nod to country kitchen charm.  The star of the design is the adorable buffalo check apron, from the Odds and Ends, It adds a cozy, homespun vibe. I paired it with the "I only have Pies for You" sentiment from the Chit Chat pack.  Such a sweet card!

My third card is a heartfelt tribute to country living, featuring the irresistible black and white cow from the Odds and Ends die cuts. It's perfect for any cow lover like me out there! The little cow is complimented by a lovely tag showcasing a farm windmill and charming milk can overflowing with vibrant flowers! The "thankful for you" sentiment along the bottom adds a meaningful touch.

My next card is a cheerful birthday card. It is a celebration of color and joy, perfect for making someone's special day even brighter! The standout features on this card are the vibrant pattern papers from the collection - I especially love the Country Quilt plaid paper on the base of the card! The adorable bees from the Busy Bees Doodle Pop steal the show, bringing a delightful buzz of whimsy to the card. A few Puffy Stickers add texture and detail, while the beautiful "Happy Birthday" banner from the Chit Chat set ties everything together.

This next card is a charming snapshot of farm life, brought to life with a delightful scene made from the Odds and Ends ephemera. This design evokes the feeling of a bright, happy day on the farm! The "Hay There" sentiment on the top perfectly complements the farmhouse vibe, adding a playful and welcoming touch. It's a sweet card, full of country charm!

For my final card, I used the slim-shaped card from the Cards and Envelopes kit.  At its heart is the adorable farm truck filled to the brim with cute pumpkins, stealing the spotlight in the design. No farm is complete without some feathered friends, so the cheerful chickens from the Icon Sticker sheet join the scene. The heartfelt "Life is better on the Farm" sentiment couldn't be more fitting, making this card an ode to country living!

HEY PUMPKIN TRAVELERS NOTEBOOK LAYOUTS | with Tya

Happy Halloween everyone! I'm so happy to be here with you today to share my latest project! As the holiday season approaches, and schedules get busier, finding time to craft can feel like a challenge. That's why I am loving traveler's notebook-sized layouts, especially when paired with the adorable "Hey Pumpkin" collection! This compact size is perfect for fitting in creative time without the commitment to a full 12x12 layout! I just adore this size!

Today I have 2 layouts to show you, so let's get started!

My first layout was such a fun one to create! I made the "Trunk or Treat" die cut from the Chit Chat ephemera my focal point on the left page, immediately bringing that Halloween spirit to life!

To decorate this page a bit more, I cut rectangles from various pattern papers from the 6x6 paper pad and used them as tiny little trick-or-treat bags. I added some black twine to the top for the handles and decorated each bag with some of the Puffy Stickers for extra dimension and charm.

For the right-hand page of this layout, I used the playful Peek-a-Boo paper as my background. The black subtle pattern was the perfect background to showcase my two photos along with my journaling. I added a few stars from the Odds and Ends ephemera, some more Puffy Stickers, and the fun "happy Halloween" speech bubble die cut from the Chit Chat die cuts.

My journaling was typed up on one of the tags from the Bits and Pieces pack. How cute is that little car filled with all my Halloween friends in it? It is from the Icon Sticker Sheet.

On my second layout, I used the bright and colorful Bubblegum Gingham/Linen Petite Print paper for my background. The vibrant color sets a fun tone for the pages, making it perfect to capture the fun memories of this Halloween Disney trip we took.

To embellish the layout, I added die cuts from the Bits and Pieces pack, along with a few Puffy Stickers. The "good times" sticker on the green label is from the This and That Sticker Sheet.

For my journaling, I knew I wanted to use one of the cut-apart journaling spots on the "Sabrina's Sock" paper. I cut one out and added my journaling as there was a bit to say about the details of this trip. I trimmed a piece of the Jolly Jack-o-Lanterns paper and made it a side pocket to tuck the journaling in. This really ties the whole layout together! And how adorable is this sweet and spooky trio of Halloween friends in the corner? Love the touch this die cut from the Bits and Pieces added to this part of the layout!

Don't the Puffy Stickers add the perfect amount of shine? I just love this little smattering decorating the top of my journaling spot!

Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my traveler's notebook-sized layouts! I hope these pages have inspired you to give this size a try as a way to keep your memory keeping quick and enjoyable during this busy holiday season. It's a great way to document those special moments without feeling overwhelmed! Happy crafting my fa-boo-lous friends! See you next time!

HEY PUMPKIN SIX HALLOWEEN CARDS | with Tya

Spooky season is here and I've been having a blast creating with the oh-so-adorable "Hey Pumpkin" collection! With Halloween being just around the corner, I couldn't resist making six frightfully cute cards that are full of tricks, treats, and a whole lot of charm! Let's take a look at them, shall we?

I used the amazing Cards and Envelopes kit that matches the collection for my card bases. Six bases and envelopes are included and they make the card-making process as quick as can be! And how fun are all the different shapes of cards? This is one of my favorite things about these kits!

This card features a fun orange bracket-shaped base that sets the perfect backdrop for a Halloween treat explosion! The center is packed with colorful die-cut candy and goodies from the Odds and Ends. To add a little shine, I scattered a few enamel dots from the Shape Sprinkles across the card giving it a sweet finishing touch.

This card is all about fun and whimsy with its file folder-shaped base! At the center, a large die cut from the Bits and Pieces Ephemera pack featuring adorable ghosts, pumpkins, kitties, bats, and a spooky gate creates a stunning focal point! The yellow star paper from the 6x6 paper pad adds a bright, cheerful touch with a sprinkle of stars from the October Sky Shape Sprinkles. This card sparkles with Halloween magic!

This large card makes a bold statement with a beautiful "October 31st" Chit Chat die cut as its focal point. Along the bottom, a delightful row of yummy candies, also from the Chit Chat, adds a playful touch. The background features a fun mix of stars and stripe pattern papers, creating the perfect backdrop for the cute accents. A perfect balance of spooky and sweet!

This card bursts with Halloween spirit! It features bright pink and green paper backgrounds that instantly grab your attention! In the center, a spooky yet fun Haunted House takes the spotlight, with a cute little ghost peeking out, holding his trick-or-treat bag. The playful "Let's Party" speech bubble from the This and That sticker sheet makes this card a perfect invite for a hauntingly good time!

This card features a playful pink polka dot paper that is from the Pumpkin Patch Plaid cut-apart paper. I added a stitched circle made from white card stock as my background covering the sentiment on the card. At the center, a festive little truck steals the show- a die cut from the Odds and Ends. Those little friends are ready for some Halloween fun! The Happy Halloween banner along the bottom from the Chit Chat ties the card all together.

Our last card is a treat for the eyes, featuring 4 yummy cupcake die cuts from the Odds and Ends, topped with colorful sprinkles and candies from the Puffy Stickers. The pink scalloped card base adds a sweet, playful touch. The "You're so Sweet" banner sentiment perfectly ties everything together, making this card an adorable and deliciously sweet creation!

I had so much fun putting together these six cards. Each card was a joy to create, and I hope I have sparked some Halloween inspiration for your own crafty projects. Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today - until next time, Happy Crafting!

HEY PUMPKIN SPOOKY LAYOUT | with Tya

Hello, my crafty friends! I am so happy to be able to share my latest design team project with you today! I am so in love with the new "Hey Pumpkin" collection and have so many ideas brewing in my head to make with this cute collection. Today I decided on a 12x12 layout!

My cute daughter dressed up as a nerd a few years ago and the colors of her costume were the perfect match with the Hey Pumpkin collection so I knew I needed to make a layout! I love how bright and fun the pattern papers are in this collection and I cut out a few 2x2 squares from the 6x6 paper pad and added them in a grid pattern behind my photo block.

Let's take a closer look at some of the embellishments on the page, shall we?

In this bottom right corner, I made a small cluster of die cuts from the Odds and Ends. There are so many super cute pumpkins and candies that highlight a fun night of trick-or-treating!

The title is from the Chit Chat die cuts. I added a few white enamel dots to the eyes in the "Spooky" title for some dimension. I love how bright and vibrant the colors are in this collection.

I knew when I saw this little ghostie with glasses on that he would be the perfect embellishment to match my photos. I just adore him! I added the "Halloween Spirit" Doodle Pop to one of the tags from the Chit Chat die cuts. I tied the top with some Beetle Black Doodle Twine.

To add a little feminine touch to the layout, this gorgeous cluster of florals and a wee little spider add just the perfect touch and go along so well with my bright Bubblegum Textured Cardstock background. A smattering of October Sky Shaped Sprinkles is a fun, shiny touch to this corner. I also added some Halloween Shape Sprinkles to the center of the flowers. You'll also see a smiley little bat die cut from the Odds and Ends that is repeated throughout the layout.

I loved creating this layout and I hope to have inspired you to get this faboolous collection and use it to record your favorite Halloween memories with the adorable "Hey Pumpkin" collection! Have a great day and we will see you next time! Happy Crafting friends!

HEY PUMPKIN TREAT HOLDERS | with Tya

Hello there crafty friends! Who's ready for some Halloween treat holders!?! Treat holders are one of my favorite things to make! I knew I needed to make something with a treat included when I saw all the yumminess of the Hey Pumpkin collection!

Each of my little treat holders is made from beetle black textured cardstock and are SO easy to make! You can whip these bases up so quickly that you can make a whole batch of these for trick-or-treaters, co-workers, etc. I used this tutorial here to make the holders

After you get the bases all made, then the fun part comes! The decorating!! I turned to the 6x6 Paper Pad to decorate my bags. The cute pattern papers were just the right scale for these smaller bags, and the sheet of mini tags in the paper pad was the perfect size to decorate the front.

I decorated the tags with some October Sky Shape Sprinkles, Icon Stickers, and some Puffy Icon Stickers.

I slid some of my favorite treats into the pocket and then tied the top with some glitter ribbon and some Doodle Twine.

A few more close-ups of the group!

 

I had the MOST fun whipping up these little cuties and I hope I have inspired you to grab the Faboolous "Hey Pumpkin" collection and make a batch of these for your favorite little monsters! Have a wonderful day and we will see you all next time! Happy Crafting!

FARMERS MARKET SHADOWBOX INSERT DECOR PIECE | with Tya

Hello there crafty friends! I'm so excited to share my latest design team project with you all today! I love adding personal touches to my home decor and this project does just that!

I am always looking for fun ways to use the Shadow Box kits in a new and interesting way. I saw this beautiful woodgrain charger plate at my craft store and knew that the circle shape in the middle would be the perfect spot to add the Shadow Box kit!

I also found this beautiful floral pick that matched the Farmers Market collection perfectly so I decided to add a fun tag using some of the elements from the Chit Chat and the Bits and Pieces. I tied some yummy Bon Bon Chunky Twine on the tag to tie in the browns of the collection.

I just love this little sign with the chicken roosting on top! It made for such a cute addition to my tag!

On the right side of the plate, I added a few more die cuts from the ephemera. The beautiful colors on the Sprinkle enamel dots in this collection sure shine through and make a great center for the playful flowers.

The top of the plate needed a little something so this "Harvest Time" banner die cut from the Chit Chat ephemera fit just right!

I mounted the Shadow Box insert on the vellum included in the kit. I then backed it on some green textured cardstock and then the super cute plaid side of the "Farm Fresh" pattern paper. I added more of the chunky twine around the edge of the circle to add interest and again tie in the luscious browns in the collection.

I had so much fun making this home decor piece that is going to look great with all my other fall-themed decor! I hope I have inspired you today to use our Shadow Box kits outside the box! lol! Charger plates are great spots for these types of projects! Thank you for stopping by and we will see you all next time!

AT THE ZOO DAY AT THE ZOO LAYOUT | with Tya

Hello there! I am so happy to be sharing a fun scrapbook layout I created for my assignment this month! As an animal lover, the At the Zoo collection has always been one of my favorites that Doodlebug has put out! I was so excited to create !

My cute cousin and her adorable baby just spent the day at the zoo and their photos could not be any cuter or more perfect for this collection! I had a lot of fun layering up a few different pattern papers from the collection to make this fun layout! I also added a couple of strips of Bumblebee Dot/Stripe Petite Print paper to add a pop of yellow to the layout!

Here are a few close ups of some of the details on the page:

The cute toucan from the Odds & Ends adds a fun splash of color to this layout! I love how the stripes on the beak matched so well with the stripes of pattern paper that I used on the layout. I also used the border strips found on the Safari Plaid paper. A couple of phrase stickers from the This and That Sticker Sheet helped bring in more color and interest.

This adorable monkey Doodle Pop was the perfect little accent up in the corner. To add some fun texture to the layout, I used some vine ribbon trim from my stash to make it look like he's swinging. I also added a few palm leaves from the Odds and Ends and the "Hi Monkey" is from the This and That stickers.

I cut out a tag from the Animal Crackers paper and typed my journaling there. I tied some pretty swimming pool Doodle twine to the tag. It makes a great visual triangle on the layout!

One more cute monkey on a ribbon trim vine decorates the title block. He is from the Icon Sticker sheet.

My title was made by layering up a sticker from the This and That sticker sheet, and a few leaves and a palm tree from the Odds & Ends. It's always fun to create little scenes around the title to make it stand out a bit more!

This little layout was a joy to make and I always love using photos of the little ones enjoying the first times doing something exciting like going to the zoo! If you have a few zoo trip photos hanging around, pick up this amazing collection and use my layout as inspiration for your own Day at the Zoo photos! Thank you so much for stopping by today! We will see you next time - Happy Crafting!
