Foundations are important in any project. In my studio, colored card stock is one of my most highly prized art supplies. The thing is, I can make patterned paper with a bit of ingenuity, my digi tools, a scanner, and my printer however, it is the straight up colored infused pieces (no white cores) that I buy in droves and that make my heart pitter patter. I got word of the new lines from American Crafts and frankly, I can’t wait to get my hands on some in person. The collection has an impressive representation and a variety of hues within the various color families that should prove to be very useful and versatile in any studio. Happy Hunting!

Crafty Themed Mini Scrapbook Album
Niella used the Color Me Crafty collection from Doodlebug to create this adorable crafty themed mini album. The cover and each page are shaped like giant tickets and there’s a disc binding on the edges and fun dangling charm hanging on the spine. The cover has a cute stack of Polaroids accent and a layered scalloped border with button pattern paper.
Inside she used more crafty pattern papers, embellishments, stickers, cardstock, puffy words and more to designs wonderful pages that have lots of room for crafty photos and journaling.
There’s even a pocket to tuck in mementos and ephemera. I love the color scheme of this collection, it’s so bright and cheerful! This little album project is perfect for all your memories of going to scrapbooking classes, crops, conventions, retreats, hanging out crafting with friends or pics of your craft room.
Visit the Doodlebug blog to learn more about this project and watch a flip through video.
