A Doodlebug Happy-Go-Lucky St. Patrick's Day Layout

Hello there!  I have a new layout up on Doodlebug's blog today using the aptly named Happy-Go-Lucky collection!  The stickers and characters in this line just make me smile!


For this layout, I turned to a fun sketch by Creative Scrappers as my jumping off point.  I had a blast embellishing each circle on the sketch like a mini canvas.  For those of you who are intimidated by scrapbooking, this is the perfect way to get past your fears and break things down into bite sized pieces.


For this little circle, I layered the pot of gold sticker with some mini bumblebee jewels.  I love adding small touches like this to my stickers to make them special.


To ground the bottom half of my page, I added a series of scalloped borders.  Some of the prints were getting lost and blending into one another so I decided to punch a second border from the lighter green patterned paper to act as a little divider between some of the busier prints.


St. Patrick's day papers are hard to come by and this is such a fun collection with so many great prints!  I can't wait to make something else with all the fun rainbow motifs for a completely different look!

  2. Just WOW! The scallop borders at the bottom are such a beautiful look... and I've seen it a lot lately so it must be a growing trend. I really love how you created all these circles and added your personal touch to each... of course your beautiful daughter's smile makes this page shine! And I really like this collection... I think you need to ask Doodlebug to please bring me on their DT LOL
