Leprechaun Trap - Doodlebug Design Team Project

St. Patrick's Day is definitely a well celebrated holiday among my family members we are all about wearing green and drinking Guinness!! So I'm always excited for a Doodlebug St. Paddy's collection and Lots o' Luck is simply adorable!!

For my project, I used the gold coin inn svg file, I think this collection is absolutely perfect for this leprechaun trap, I really love how it came out.

I didn't have wood to make the ladder so I just used some of Doodlebug's gold sugar coated cardstock and it really came out great. I cut two pieces 1 1/4" x 6" and scored it down the long way 1/4" four times, then I punched 5 holes an inch apart on each piece. I cut another strip 1 3/4" and rolled up about an inch each piece tightly to glue into each hole to form the ladder rungs.

Since the inn is supposed to be a leprechaun trap and I didn't have a coin I cut out two gold circles and used the gold shamrock sticker instead, also I used the st. patrick's day sticker instead of the sign that comes with the project.

Jack O' Lantern - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Halloween is such a fun time of the year for crafting and Doodlebug makes it even more so with their colorful papers and adorable embellishments. Pumpkin Party is one of my favorite collections, it really made this jack o'lantern that much cuter.

The pumpkin svg cut file is from SVGCuts Haunted Forest kit cut out on my Brother Scan n Cut 2. The cardstock used; spooky sweets, party pinwheels, midnight masquerade, marigold, and beetle black textured cardstock.

For the Doodlebug embellishments, I used a sentiment banner from the pumpkin party chit chat pack, silly spider shaped sprinkles, a halloween pals jelly clip, spooky town button, and some halloween twine.

Apple Box - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Doodlebug's new petite prints floral-graph and dot-stripe work perfectly for those projects that you want a little more than just a solid color. The petite prints are one of my favorite paper patterns to use and I'm so happy Doodlebug has come out with more patterns!

One of my favorites is the floral-graph, I used the pretty ladybug floral for this apple box from SVGCuts Miss Baker's Classroom collection. I just love this two-toned floral pattern! The base of the apple was cut out using ladybug textured cardstock. For the leaf, I used the citrus dot-stripe layered on grasshopper textured cardstock.

To decorate the box I used some items from the Down on the Farm collection; this and that stickers, odds and ends, chit chat, farm assortment sprinkles and farm friends sprinkles. I scrunched up a lily white mini doily in the center and glued the embellishments to it and glued just the top part to the top of the apple box so it can be opened without a problem. I finished off the apple with some limeade chunky twine.

3D Space Backpack - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Here's a cool 3D backpack project I made decorated with Doodlebug Design's new So Much Pun Collection. With school starting here soon this would make a great gift for a student or teacher and what makes it that much cuter is this super fun space paper and embellishments. What I love about this collection the most is the versatility, there is definitely something in it for everyone and for all occasions!

This was a fun project to put together, I used the backpack from svgcuts back to school kit and cut it out using my cricut maker. It was hard choosing what paper I was going to use but that little out of this world doodle pop alien with moon and stars won me over, so space it was.

I used perfect combo, and the front and back of far out from the 12 x 12 paper collection. The speech bubble is from the so much pun chit chat pack and the base of the bag is sunshine textured cardstock.

The enamel stars are from the out of this world shape sprinkles pack and I used a blue jean boutique button with some boy twine on the latch.

I'm always looking for ways to use Doodlebug's adorable washi tape and I think the out of this world washi worked perfectly layered on top of the straps.

Down On The Farm Suitcase Box Card - Doodlebug Design Team Project

Doodlebug has so many adorable embellishments that you can add to your project to give it that perfect touch. Some of my favorites are the many different kinds of sprinkles they offer like the popular shaped sprinkles that match their collections.

Loved putting this box card together, it was so much fun! I used the suitcase base from svgcut's truck of wildflowers and added the flowers and grass from the fence and hay from the horse #3 down on the farm svg files.

I used a bunch of sprinkles from two different packs for the flower centers and a couple of farm friends shape sprinkles scattered around the group of flowers. Also used some Doodlebug brads on the suitcase.

More farm friends shape sprinkles on the truck which is from the down on the farm odds & ends pack and speech bubble from the down on the farm chit chat pack.

A couple more embellishments added to the back to match the pretty patterned paper!

Doodlebug Products Used

tangerine sprinkles, bumblebee glitter sprinkles, farm friends shape sprinkles, assortment of textured cardstock, down on the farm 12 x 12 paper collection, down on the farm odds & ends, down on the farm chit chat, neutral asst. mini brads, metallic asst. mini brads, hen & chicks doodle-pops, fence svg, horse #3 svg, fence svg, horse #3 svg.

Doodlebug Design's Easter Express Design Team Projects

Hello, I have some Doodlebug projects to share from the new Easter Express Collection.  I had so much fun making these projects, this collection is not only adorable but it's also very pretty, I love it!

This gift set includes a shadowbox gift card bag and a box card which folds up and fits into an envelope.

Mr. Bunny doodle-pop goes perfectly with this shadowbox bag, it adds such nice dimension.  How cute is that carrot clip, totally love and this paper, it's one of my favorites.  This bag is one of Lori Whitlock's you can find it in the Silhouette Design Store or at her online shop.

I used the eggs, little chicks, flower & leaves that come in the Odds and Ends pack to put this card together, they made it so quick and easy.  The Odds & Ends package contains 105 die cut pieces, everything in there is so adorable.  The card base is from SVGCuts Easter Box Cards collection.

I think this Easter Express doodle-pop is just darling with it's little puffs of smoke, how cute!!  I used some limeade daisy petite paper and some limeade sequins along with some stickers from the collection.

This is a super simple basket, but I love this large sticker and the pretty dot paper, just finished it with some chunky bubblegum twine and button.  This basket is one of Lori Whitlock's you can find it in the Silhouette Design Store or at her online shop.

For my last project I made a card using the Easter Basket doodle-pop, Happy Easter sticker and some flowers and leaves from the Odds & Ends pack, also some matte sprinkles.

You can find the Easter Express Collection and it's Accessories here.

I hope you've enjoyed these projects, have a wonderful day!

Beautiful Day - Hero Arts April My Monthly Hero Kit

I picked up Hero Arts April Kit of the Month and I'm totally in love with the stamp set, it's gorgeous.  Sadly I believe the kit is sold out but for the lucky people who bought this and haven't used it yet you're gonna love it!  I stamped the flower 4 times and used the coordinating dies to cut out each layer.  I used some pop dots in between each layer to give it some dimension.

The gift bag is from SVGCuts Tied Surprise Gift Bags kit, I cut it in white cardstock and stamped the black polka dots using a Peachy Keen Background stamp.  The tag is from My Creative Time's Holiday Tags Stamps & Die Set.

Valentine's Conversation Candy Hearts Card

This Valentine card from SVGCuts new kit Love Struck reminded me of those conversation candy hearts.  So I used the saying from the Valentine SVG Collection and did a print, scan and cut with my Brother ScanNCut2.  Such a fun card that was quick and easy to put together.
