Hello there! I am so excited to finally share a project I created for the Doodlebug blog using the newest Cream and Sugar collection!
Isn't this collection so much fun?! I have been holding onto these favorite photos of my daughter for nearly seven years now just waiting to come across a collection to compliment them and Cream and Sugar is just what I needed! If you look closely my daughter's dress has tiny cups of hot cocoa on it and these colors are a perfect match!
I started embellishing my page by die-cutting a number of circles from the 6x6 paper pad. I then set to work filling in my border with layers of embellishments from the collection. This is a great way to squeeze in many of my favorite adorable images and yet still maintain a somewhat clean look.
I completed my page with the "sweet" word from the odds & ends pack and a die-cut banner cut from patterned paper to ground the rest of my title spelled out with stickers.
I hope I've inspired you to take a closer look at this adorable collection! You'll want to stay tuned this week because the team has cooked up some super cute ideas for you!

I hope you have a very happy New Year's! I am madly working on some projects using the new Sunny Studio release for Spring that I will be sharing on the Sunny Studio blog starting next Monday. ;)
I'm sharing a fun idea on the Doodlebug blog today. For this project we were challenged to create a project inspired by a quote found on Pinterest.
I actually went looking for this particular quote to go with these fun photos I snapped of my daughter and I ended up being so inspired by the overall look of THIS PIN that I used it as the inspiration for my entire layout.
One of the things I liked best about the layout of the quote was how the words were perfectly spaced so I created a free cut file to share with all you today so you can create a layout of your own.

Want to know how I got my letters so straight? I used the negative space from my die-cut to help me adhere them. Using a little washi tape to hold my strip in place, I started by testing the first and last letters in the line. Once I had made sure they were positioned in the center of the line, I knew all the other pieces would line up perfectly and I set to work adhering them with a Zig glue pen.
It always feels magical lifting up the strip for the full reveal!
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope I've inspired you to look at some of the word art around you with a fresh eye.

So sorry for the repeat. I had to take down this blog post temporarily due to the cut file release date being delayed over in the Silhouette store. ;)
They are finally available (yay!) and I'm happy to be on the Doodlebug Blog today with a trio of shaped card using the newest Kitten Smitten cutting files available in the Silhouette store (along with the coordinating papers from the Kitten Smitten 6x6 paper pad).
To create my cards I sized them to fit within an 4.25" x 5.5" A2 sized envelope making none of the dimensions exceeded that size. I then cut two of the bases, scoring the back one along the top (parallel to the base) and adhered the two pieces together along the top.
It was so much fun personalizing my little kitties using different papers from the collection, inking and stitching around some of the kitties to help give them a little extra definition.
When I was done I stamped simple sentiments for each card using a small tag die I had on hand and tied on bows with coordinating colors of bakers twine. I also added a bit of glossy accents to the eyes and noses to help bring them to life.
I hope I've inspired you to take a closer look at the newest Doodlebug cutting files in the Silhouette store and at Lori Whitlock's shop. They have so many adorable ones!
