Fifty and Fabulous Card

Hi Everyone!  I have a cute card I created for a friend's birthday that I wanted to share.  It's a big year for some of us, but that doesn't mean we aren't fabulous, right??  Take a peek:

I created the card using my Silhouette and Lori Whitlock's Awesome Font.  The balloon pop up die is from Queen and Company, as are the Shaker Shapes,  and all papers are from Doodlebug Designs Sugar Shoppe collection.  I hope it makes turning the big 5-0 a little sweeter!  That's it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Doodlebug Design: Design by Color

Hi Everyone!  Today I have my color challenge project for Doodlebug Design!  I was lucky enough to get my all time favorite Doodlebug color.... Swimming Pool!!  Seriously, it's my most favorite color in the history of ever!  It makes me so happy!  Here's my layout, it's a throwback picture to 2006 of my daughter digging in the sand down on Cape Cod!
 

I used papers from a few collections including Happy Campers, SunKissed, Sugar Shoppe and some Sprinkles Vellum for my background. 

 

The clouds are made using the Sizzix Doodlebug Cloud, Flower, Rain and Umbrella Die Set and some Lily White Sprinkles Vellum.

I LOVE the Fishy Doodlepop from the Happy Campers Collection!!

 

I also used a Swimming Pool Doily to back my photo and Swimming Pool Gingham Treat Bag as a holder for my journaling tag.  The stickers are from a few different collections including SunKissed, and some Swimming Pool Fancy Frills.  I love how it all turned out!  That's it for me today, make sure to stop by the Doodlebug Design blog this week for more Design by Color inspiration!
 

Doodlebug Design: Alphabet Challenge

Hi Everyone!  Today I have a layout for Doodlebug Design... The ladies on the Design Team were asked to feature one or more of Doodlebug's fabulous alphabets in a project.  I LOVE mixing and matching the different Doodlebug Alphabets so this was right up my alley!  Here's what I created.

 

Yes, I am a crazy cat lady.  This is my girl Rosie...aka Squishy Kitty.  She is just the sweetest kitty!  We are always singing the "Soft Kitty" song around here (LOVE Big Bang Theory!!) and I thought it was the perfect title for my project! 

 

I used a combination of Doodlebug Chippers and some Teensy Type letters  (in Lily White, Bubblegum, Bumblebee, Tangerine and Swimming Pool) for my title.  The papers and stickers are from the Sugar Shoppe Collection.

 

 

I couldn't resist adding a new Mini Doily in Swimming Pool and some Glitter Sprinkles!!  Well that's it for me today.  Be sure to check the Doodlebug Blog for all of the Alphabet Challenge projects. Thanks for stopping by!

 

Doodlebug Designs: Chevron Sugar Coated Cardstock

Hi Everyone, I'm up on the Doodlebug Design blog today with a fun layout featuring Chevron Sugar Coated Cardstock.  I love the glittery effect it adds to a project!  Here's what I came up with:

 

 This quote has always been a favorite, and worked perfectly with the sparkle factor in the Chevron Sugar Coated Cardstock ... and this silly selfie of my daughter.  I used a number of thin dies from Sizzix and MFT and my Big Shot to cut hearts from the cardstock.  I love how the colors coordinate perfectly with the Sugar Shoppe papers!

 

 

For my title, I couldn't resist mixing and matching Doodlebug Alphas and I HAD to use the Bubblegum Shin-Dig Sugar Coated Alphas! 

 

To complete my layout, I added some Doodlebug Sequins and stitched with some silver thread for a little more bling!  That's it for me today.  Thanks for stopping by.
