Doodlebug Design | Petite Prints Leprechaun Hats

With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner, I was curious... what do you call a group of leprechauns?  Is it a pack, like wolves?  Or maybe a murder, like crows?  I did finally google this question and though there is no official name, one person suggested that they be called a "Luck" of leprechauns, which I thought was perfect!  

I'm attending an in-person crop which starts on St. Patrick's Day, and wanted to make a little something special for my friends.  I came up with these cute little Leprechaun hat treat holders.  I got the original idea from a cut file I saw that was a wrap used to decorate a little paper cup.  I didn't have any paper cups so I decided to make my own.  Take a peek...

To make the hats, I started with this Coffee Cup SVG file from Lori Whitlock.  I deleted the cover and wrap pieces.  I then resized the body of the cup to be 3.25" high.  I pieced together the cup using some Gingham Linen Limeade Petite Prints. For the hat base I cut a circle about 3.125" in diameter.  For the black band I cut a strip Beetle Black Daisy Stripe Petite Prints approx. 0.5" x 6.5" and wrapped it around the bottom of the hat.  To finish I used the buckle piece from the Happy Go Lucky Leprechaun Hat SVG.

I love the Petite prints, not only because they match all of Doodlebug's Collections, but you can get a different look by just flipping the paper over!  The two hats below were made from the same exact papers, just the opposite sides!

The fun part was decorating the hats with cute little shamrocks from the Happy Go Lucky Shamrocks SVG.  For the little tag, I printed out Irish Kisses & Shamrock Wishes on some Limeade Floral Graph Petite Prints, sized to fit on the tag from the Tiny Tags Doodle Cuts, cut them out and finished them with some Doodle Twine.   (the inside area of the tag is approx .75" x 1.25")

Now for the reason behind my first question about naming a group of Leprechauns... I created a bunch of these little hats, and just needed to know!

Wishing you all a little Luck O' the Irish this St. Patrick's Day!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Lori Whitlock | Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Since life has been super crazy for everyone these days, I wanted to take a minute and wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day.  I hope you can find some cheer today!

I created this card file for Lori Whitlock and it is available in her SVG Shop as well as the Silhouette Store.  I pieced the cute little gnome together using some Petite Prints from Doodlebug Design.  I just love that cute little gnome, he's certain to brighten someone's day!

Lori Whitlock | Rainbow Box

I have another rainbow project that I created for Lori Whitlock today!  This fun Rainbow Box (SVG, Silhouette) is the perfect way to package up a little something for someone special!  Take a peek...

It could be used as a table decoration for a St. Patrick's Day or Spring themed party!  It would also make a super cute gift set paired with the Rainbow Box Card in my last post.  I pieced this one together using some petite prints from Doodlebug Design and a fun little heart shaped sprinkle from Doodlebug's Love Notes Collection.  So bright and cheery!  That's it for me to day, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Doodlebug Design | Lots O' Luck Wiper Cards

My married name may not sound Irish, but I promise, I come from a long line of Kelley's, Barrett's, Hickey's and Doyle's!  I believe that St. Patrick's Day should be a federal holiday!  So now you can understand how excited I was to get my hands on the Lots O' Luck Collection!  The adorable characters and icons make me so happy!  I decided to feature them in some fun Wiper Cards.  Take a peek...

These cards are great because they fold flat for mailing, but when you open them, you get a fun surprise!

 Here are some close ups of the cards while open.... first, how cute is this little leprechaun???  And green beer??   A winning combination!  

This little girl made me smile... I love her striped tights!   I challenged myself to use some doodlepops for this project, rather than hoard them... so I added the Good Luck doodlepop for the wiper pop up!

Of course I had to make a card using one of the adorable unicorns!  I love the little touches of gold and the that I {heart} rainbows doodlepop was a must!

As I've always said, interactive cards are more fun when you can see them in action so I created another little video ...

Doodlebug Design: Pot O' Gold Cut Files

When you're Irish and going to college in the Boston area, St. Paddy's day is a major holiday event!  I might even have to say it's a college requirement!  My daughter and friends took on this challenge last year, and joined in the campus-wide celebration, and being a child of a scrapbooker, she was kind enough to send me pictures!  So when I saw the new Pot O' Gold Cut Files available in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop I knew what I was going to scrap!

I used the Shamrocks Cut Files as the main focus of my layout, I re-sized them to meet my needs and made multiples to scatter on my layout. I love how the files are set up so that you can make the stems different from the leaves, it add so much more color!  I used foam tape to pop them up for a bit more dimension,  The papers and embellishments are from a number of Doodlebug Collections including the Gingham Linen Petite Prints,  Dragon Tails, Sugar and Spice, and of course, Pot O'Gold!

I used the Abigail Font Stickers in Lily White  and Candy Heart Sprinkles to complete my layout!

Doodlebug Design: Pot O'Gold

Hi Everyone! Today I have a fun layout featuring the  Pot O' Gold  collection from Doodlebug Design!  You wouldn't know it from my married name, but I'm almost all Irish, so I love a good St. Patrick's Day themed collection.  Take a peek at my layout...

 

 

Perhaps someday my daughter will forgive me for dressing her for every holiday, but I always got great pictures!  For my background, I used the Shamrock Gingham paper along with the Citrus Swiss Dot Petite Print papers.

 

My banner is made up of a few different papers from the Pot O' Gold collection, the Good Luck Doodle-Pop, some stickers from the Icons Sticker Sheet and some Shamrock Shape Sprinkles.  I finished it up with some Limeade Chunky Twine.

 

My title was made by combining some Limeade Chippers and some Limeade Teensy Type letters. 

That's it for me today, be sure to stop by the Doodlebug Blog more Pot O'Gold inspiration!  Thanks for stopping by to peek!

 

 

Lori Whitlock: Irish Kisses

Hi Everyone!  I have a new project for the Lori Whitlock Creative team today... a little something in honor of St. Patrick's Day.  Take a peek...

I used some Doodlebug Design's Happy Go Lucky papers, and a few of Lori's files to create this gift set.  For the card, I used Lori's Lucky Me, I Have You file along with her Center Panel Step Card. The Mug of "Irish Kisses" was created using the 3D Hot Cocoa/Coffee Mug and some clovers from the 5 Clover Shamrocks set.   I can't wait to give it to my sweet Irishman!

 

That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by!
