Lori Whitlock | Birthday Cat Impossible Card

I just love the new impossible cards in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop.  They are so simple to assemble and they are really cute!  She has a new card in the shop this week... the Impossible Card Birthday Cat (SVG, Silhouette - coming soon).  Being a crazy cat lady, I just couldn't resist!  Take a peek...


I pieced this card together using some Bundle of Joy Collection from Doodlebug Design.  I just love the kitty's happy little face!  The impossible cards come with envelopes, so they are ready to send as soon as you make them!  If you need help assembling, Lori has a tutorial here.  Check out all of the Impossible Cards here in Lori's Shop. They are also available in the Silhouette Store.  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Doodlebug Design | Special Delivery Baby Stats Frame

One of my favorite gifts I received when my daughter was born was a sweet frame with all of her birth stats.  It made such a cute decoration in her room.  Now when there's a special new little in our life, I love to make a baby stats frame for the new parents.  As soon as I saw the Special Delivery Collection, I knew I was going to use it to make one for a new little guy!  Check it out...


I started with the gray & white checked side of the Choo-Choo paper for my background. I printed the baby's name & stats along the bottom of the paper.  I then cut some train cars that I designed to look like the choo-choo train odds & ends from some of the other papers in the collection.  The cut files for these weren't available when I created this, but they are now in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop here.  I filled the cars with some of the adorable little critters from the Odds & Ends.  Here are some close ups.




I added some sprinkles to the wheels for a little dimension.  And of course I can't give a gift without a cute little card!  I used the new Toy Box Stamps and dies to make this card.  The sentiment was stamped on a piece I cut using the Doodle Cuts Mini Tags and attached with a couple of mini brads.


Now all I need to do is get this all in the mail to the new parents!  Have you made any projects using Special Delivery?  Be sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Facebook and Instagram.  We love to see your creations!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Doodlebug Design | Bundle of Joy Circular Pop Up Abum

There's nothing quite as cute as a baby smile... well maybe their toes, or their little chubby arms... their little noses, dimpled hands and belly laughs... don't forget the belly laughs!  As you can tell I'm quite a fan!  I am definitely the one who "hogs" the baby at family events.  So needless to say, the new Bundle of Joy Collection is a new favorite!  I made a fun "Baby's First Year" album using all the cute papers and icons... take a peek...


I started with this Circular Pop Up Card File from Lori Whitlock.  I added six sections, one for every 2 months.  On each section instead of just gluing the background paper, I sewed around the sides and bottom to form a pocket.  In each pocket I added a tag where you can record the new baby's weight and length each month of the first year.  On top of the pocket, you can add a photo.  Here are the inside pages.  The Chit Chat month pieces were perfect!







It was so fun picking the different Odds & Ends to decorate the months!  The album is held open with a mini clip, but it also folds "flat".


This would make such a great gift for a new mom to be or even a Mimi to be!  Have you used the new Bundle of Joy in any of your projects?  Be sure to tag Doodlebug Design on Facebook and Instagram.  We love to see your creations.  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
