Tiered Scallop Album

Hi friends! Traci here and today I’m sharing a cute new mini album filled with a colorful farm theme. I used one of Lori’s amazing cutting files called Tiered Album Scallop (SVGSilhouette) and I love the layered waterfall pages. Lori has so many of these files with different edges and they’re all so fun!  

 

 

To make this, I cut the 5 pages out of white cardstock but, you could use any color or pattern paper you like. Then I decorated each of the pages with the Doodlebug Design, Down on the Farm Collection.

 

 

I covered the white pages in colorful prints that I cut slightly smaller than the base. To do this, I created an inset for the pattern paper. Layering the papers like this makes the pages super sturdy.

 

 

Next, I added cute embellishments and some fun interactive elements like this little folding card (aka the “flippie”). What an easy and fun way to double your photo space!

 

I also added a handy dandy little pocket. I fussy cut this one out of pattern paper but you could make a simple square one out of cardstock. These are great for saving journaling cards, extra photos, or small memorabilia.

 

 

This Tiered Scallop Mini Album can be made with ANY theme or paper collection and it would make such a great gift idea. Oh! … and be sure to check out Lori’s other tiered mini album shapes, like … the bracket, curved, flag, tabs, rounded, pennant, pinking, rounded, waves, and ticket in her shop.

I hope this farm themed scrapbook inspires you. Have a crafty day!

Easter Flower Treat Cups

Our dear friend Kathy Skou from Doodlebug Design is a BIG fan of treat favors and made these adorable flower treat cups from one of my patterns (SVG, Silhouette) and added these cute Bunny and Friends Doodlecuts to the cups. SVG cut files for a similar bunny effect are included in the Doodlebug Bunny Hop Collection. Such a wonderful creation! So fun!
She started by making a few of the bunnies from the Doodle Cuts set and dressed them in fun spring colors using some Doodlebug petite prints.  She then made little flower cups using the flower cup SVG with papers from the Doodlebug Bunny Hop 6×6 pad and then downsized the files to 60%.  The smaller prints are perfect for little projects!  She then attached the bunnies’ paws to the cups using a little hot glue so it looked like they were holding the flowers.
Look at those cute bunny tails!
Special thanks to Kathy for allowing us to show off her adorable bunnies that she originally shared on the Doodlebug blog!

Tiered Bracket Mini Album

Hello friends! We’re into the Christmas season so, I thought it would be fun to make a holiday mini album using one of Lori Whitlock’s amazing cutting files called Tiered Album Bracket (SVG, Silhouette). It‘s perfect for your favorite photos from the season, and … it would make a sweet gift idea for someone special.

I love making shaped mini albums and Lori has lots of great cutting files with unique silhouettes to choose from. This one caught my eye with its pretty waterfall pages. To decorate it, I chose Doodlebug’s Gingerbread Kisses Collection.

Now, on to how I made it …

First, the cutting file comes with the base pages and the inset pieces for cutting pattern paper.  One tip when cutting out the patterns … be sure to position your pattern on the cutting mat so that it will be cut in the direction you want!

I love how the patterns cut perfectly sized to allow a nice 1/8″ border of white (or whatever color base you choose). 
I decorated my pages with card stock mats and embellishments and love how the waterfall design let’s some of the fun elements peek through!
The pink page above is an example of what I meant about cutting the correct direction for your paper.  Since I wanted my pink hearts to be right side up, I flipped my cutting file design in the software to “flip vertically”.  You could also just place your paper upside down on your mat 🙂 
Lori has several fun waterfall (tiered) album designs in her shop … curved, flag, pennant, pinking, rounded, tabs, scallop, ticket, and wave shapes!  I love them all!

I hope you’ve been inspired to try one of Lori’s tiered albums!  They would make a cute gift for Christmas, and a fun way to display your holiday (or any day) memories!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Flowers and Borders Layout

Happy Monday creative friends! Today, I’m sharing a layout I made of my adorable granddaughter using some borders, flowers and a title, all cut from Lori’s files. I will link below. I used some petite patterns from Doodlebug Designs for my project and cut all my elements on my Cricut.

I cut all my flowers and assembled them. They are very easy to make. I used the Rolled Flower 47 (SVG, Silhouette) and 3D Flower (SVG, Silhouette).
My title was the You Sure Are Cute (SVG, Silhouette) file that I offset to give it a little pop. The borders were cut from the Mega Border Bundle (SVG, Silhouette). I welded and sliced them to get the borders the size that I wanted.

I love how bright and fun this page turned out. Thanks for stopping by today and happy crafting!
