Themes, layouts and inspirations
You can easily make your own greeting cards using supplies from your scrapbooking stash. It’s a great way to use up scraps too. These two tutorials can give you some ideas for personalized cards you can make. First try the keyhole card above, by May Holi Crafts as a nice housewarming greeting.
Lucy Abrams shows the techniques for making this best wishes card. I love how she embellished that shape! You can easily adapt this idea for any occasion.
If you took lots of photos for Halloween why not make an entire mini album dedicated to the holiday? Niella used products from Doodlebug to created this darling 3″ x 6″ tall slimline style mini album. The cover is decorated with a cute dimensional black cat popping out of a pumpkin, with flowers and gems. The spine has little ghostie pattern paper along with a fun dangling charm.
Inside are lots of fun pages with pattern papers, lots of decorations, tags, pockets, titles, vellum papers and much more.
She even added little tabs on the page edges for different categories. You can take a look at more pages and watch a video flip through over on the Doodlebug blog.
