Happy Healing Greeting Card Kit

Happy Friday friends! I just added 2 NEW kits to the shop that I created with the adorable Doodlebug Design, Happy Healing Collection. Yesterday, I introduced the cute mini album titled Laughter Is The Best Medicine and today, I'm sharing my fun new card kit.

To purchase the instructions for these cards visit:

Happy Healing Card Instructions

In the kit, I've added 6 different cards that are filled with bright, happy colors and cute smiling faces. These are sure to brighten someone's day when they're feeling under the weather.   

 

This first card is a great way to show support when a friend or family member is sick or in the hospital. The hearts, the bouquet of flowers, and the "you got this" sentiment is a sweet reminder that they're not alone.

 

I'm loving all the metallic accents (like the silver foil dots on the heart above) and the different types of medical inspired images. There are band-aids, pills, stethoscopes, x-rays, hospital beds, tissues, & germs!

This next card wishes your loved one a speedy recovery and would be great for almost any medical issue.

Here's a close-up ... how cute is the Bear Hugs Doodle-pops?! I love him and all the fabulous balloons he's holding on to. 

A card ... in and of itself, is very thoughtful but a handmade card shows you went the extra mile. Thankfully, my kits make creating some super easy. Each card is pre-designed and pre-cut so all you need to do is assemble them! 

Also, be sure to check out my new Laughter Is The Best Medicine Mini Album ...

Both kits are available in my shop, so hop over there next & get them before the Doodlebug cuteness is gone!

Update: This kit has sold out but the instructions are available in my shop. They are simple, step-by-step, and include measurements and full color photos of each card. Links for the instructions and the products used are below. Happy scrappin'!

Laughter is the Best Medicine Scrapbook Mini Album

Hey guys! Doodlebug's NEW Happy Healing Collection is in the house! 🎉 As soon as it arrived, I was filled with ideas so I created 3 super FUN kits ... a mini album, greeting cards, AND 12x12 layouts. Today for my Design Team Project, I'm sharing the adorable Laughter is the Best Medicine Mini Album. This and the card kit will be available in my shop tomorrow (Friday). The 12x12 layout kit is coming soon, so ... stay tuned!

Because this collection has die cuts for a variety of medical situations, my cute mini album could be used for lots of different photos, like ...

⭐ documenting your child's medical history. Add photos of their pediatrician, check-ups, immunizations, a broken arm, chicken pox, poison ivy, a black eye, the flu, stitches, or a sports injury. 

⭐ a medical situation where someone would like to document their journey and recovery. This could include a surgery (knee, shoulder, back, carpal tunnel, etc), a car accident, or a cancer diagnosis and treatment. For many, this can be very cathartic.

⭐ a student going through medical school. Add photos of their classmates, study time, labs, the hospital, their school, professors, a clinical rotation, graduation, passing the boards, a residency, or a fellowship.

⭐ experiences that include donating blood, physical therapy, covid, a hospital stay, x-rays, and crutches.

⭐ dental work, a child's dental visits (cleaning or braces), wisdom teeth being removed, or any oral surgery. 

This would also make an amazing handmade gift for a nurse, doctor, pharmacist, an EMT, or anyone in the medical field!

Now, the fun details ... I created this with a new 4.25" x 8.25" custom white acrylic album. I designed the front cover to be narrower than the pages and back cover, so ... cute papers and embellies can peek out the side!

On the cover, I added the fun Pill Better Shaker-pops, lots of adorable die cuts with happy faces, and a pretty celery green chevron ribbon. Also, notice the cute detail down the side of the album - I added colorful tabs on the edge of the pages.

Doodlebug can make absolutely anything cute ... even germs, lol! So, I added a few to this first page. The album has 12+ pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 3 flippies, and space for 30+ photos.

This next page is made of a transparent acetate covered in silver metallic hearts. There are lots of pretty foil accents in this collection and I LOVE the shimmer it adds.

Pockets are great for adding memorabilia, like ... a hospital bracelet, a doctor's business card, pressed flowers from a bouquet someone sent you, a tag from a gift, or a small get well drawing your child made you.

I've also added some die cut pieces that are perfect for journaling. Add notes, medications, immunization dates, a doctor's or nurse's name, phone numbers, or records of blood pressure, heart rate, or weight.

Check out the fine print on the little x-ray die cut above. If you look closely, the doctor's name is Dr. Will Fixya and the patient's name is I.M. Hurt. Lol!

Here's another cute journaling spot that's also an interactive flippie. Add a few photos inside to go along with your handwriting.

I love this fold-out page with the colorful hearts and scalloped cloud sticker that acts as a tab. The little band-aid on its forehead is ah-dorable!

I hope you love my new "Laughter is the Best Medicine" Mini Album and Doodlebug's fabulous Happy Healing Collection. It's so different, fun to create with, and I just LOVE it! 

Be sure to visit my shop tomorrow when this mini album kit AND a cute greeting card kit will be available. See you then! 😊

Telephone Shaped Mini Scrapbook Album

Hey guys! Today, I'm sharing my latest Lori Whitlock Design Team project. It's a cute little telephone shaped scrapbook made with Lori's new cutting file called Hidden Binding Mini Album Telephone (link below). This Thursday (April 25th) is National Telephone Day, so ... I thought this would be a fun project to make.

I started by using Bazzill card stock in whirlpool for the base, then added some pattern papers from Echo Park's Our Baby Girl and Boy Collections. I used the generic prints from both so this album could be given to anyone. On the cover, I added a few stickers and a title next to the old fashion rotary dial. So cute!

This album uses a hidden binding technique to secure the pages and it allows enough room in between for pop dots and embellishments. It lays perfectly flat when closed. You can watch the assembly tutorial for it over on Lori's YouTube Channel here.

There are 5 double-sided pages, including the front cover. I layered each one with a different patterned paper and some cute circular photo mats. I used a 3" scalloped circle punch and a 2.5" circle punch for those.

I added a journaling card and some stickers on this page, but the next one is my favorite ...

Isn't she pretty? I love the soft feminine colors and the flowers paired with this fun, nostalgic shape.

This mini album would make a great gift idea for Mother's Day or a birthday. Lori has other hidden binding mini album shapes too, like ... a flower, mason jar, camera, bee, house, butterfly, and more! Be sure to check them out in her shop.

I hope you like my version of this cute little telephone scrapbook and it inspires you to create one yourself. I highly recommend!!

Saddle Up Country Western Scrapbook Album Kit

Howdy partners and happy Friday! Today, I've added a new scrapbook kit to the shop with a slightly more unique theme. The album is titled Saddle Up and it's perfect for all you folks out there that love cowboys, country music, horses, and the Wild West. Take a look ...

I designed this with a 6x6 inch Prima chipboard album and the Carta Bella Cowboys Collection. This fun line is filled with cowboy boots and hats, guitars, horses, flowers, saddles, horseshoes, maps, and more.

If you love a country western theme, this would be perfect for all your favorite everyday photos. And, it would look great sitting out on a coffee or side table as part of your home's decor.

The album has 12 chipboard pages that include 2 fold-outs, 5 pockets, 5 flippies, and space for 45+ photos!

Add pictures from a trip to Arizona, New Mexico, Wyoming, Texas, Montana, or the Wild West. Or ... what about a fun filled vacation to a horse ranch, a cattle drive, Yellowstone National Park, Disney's Frontierland, or Nashville's Grand Ole Opry?! 

With five pockets, there's plenty of space for saving memorabilia like tickets to an event, an autograph, postcards from your travels, brochures, an invitation, a matchbook, a handwritten letter, or a love note.

What a great keepsake for saving memories of a country music concert, a rodeo, a festival, a horse show, a night of country-western line dancing, or a themed birthday party!

This scrapbook would also be an amazing gift idea for someone who's into the western genre, horses, history, saloons, pioneers, stagecoaches, or the gold rush. Yeehaw!

Giddy up! Y'all better head over to my shop soon and get your Saddle Up Album today because this unique scrapbook is likely to sell out quickly!
