Doodlebug Mix & Match

Hi!

It's great to have you here for a visit! I know I say that a lot on my posts and I sincerely mean it! I love sharing my crafty projects with you and having the opportunity see yours too! I gain so much enjoyment and inspiration from your posts and projects that I hope to provide the same for you!

Today's crafty share is a couple cards using Doodlebug goodies. Several of the design team members were challenged to mix and match a few of the Doodlebug collections. As I've mentioned before, they all coordinate perfectly together so this was a pretty easy assignment! And fun!


On both cards I used Create-A-Card bases which makes the card making process so much easier. There's a lot of bright colors and styles to choose from! I always pick different envelope colors from my card base for even more contrast and color.


The three collections used for this card are Colorwheel, Nifty Notions and Welcome Home. I bet you can guess that this adorable green chair is from the Welcome Home line?!?! :)


All of Doodlebug Design accents such as their twine, gems and brads work with any collection. This polka dotted red brad is from the Birthday Celebration collection.


If you are new to paper crafting or know someone who is, to get them started, a couple of Doodlebug kits would be perfect since they all work beautifully together and would minimize the amount of product they would have to invest in to get started! Can you tell how much I love this company? ;) I'm only a good sales person if it's a product I like!


My next card uses the same three collections.


I really like these file folder Create-A-Card bases! Very cute! And the Welcome Home collection....I'm smitten over these petite little houses!


I added some pretty flowers to the 'neighborhood'! ;)


If you haven't had a chance to try the Doodles Card Stock Stickers sentiments, they are a must! There's oodles of phrases, colors and the font is pure Doodlebug!


I hope I've given you a good dose of Doodlebug fun today! :) All week long on the Doodlebug Design Blog, you can find mix and match projects from the design team. So if you have a little bit of this collection and a bit of that line....you can get a dose of good ideas for combining them together!

I've got to get this post up...I'm a little behind today because hubs and I were talking to an electrician this morning about installing some proper lighting in my studio! It's for my birthday coming up next month. What a great present, don't you think? Hubs is the best!

Have a super day!
