Doodlebug Sweet Things Valentine's Day Scrapbook Layout

I am thrilled to be sharing a layout on the Doodlebug Blog today using the adorable new Sweet Things collection!   I have been waiting for a collection with both hot pink and red to match these photos for six years now so I was thrilled to finally find the perfect papers to use them with!

I am so in love with all of the darling images in this collection so I wanted to find a way to showcase as many of them as possible and a grid layout seemed like the perfect solution!  I cut each square from the tiny valentine's paper down to 1-7/8" x 1-7/8", lined them up on my 10-1/8" square piece of white cardstock and stitched around them in coordinating colors of thread.

For a couple of the squares, I layered the coordinating icon stickers over the top with foam tape to create the look of a doodle pop.  I also removed a couple of the squares in my grid and filled the space with actual doodle pops from the collection for a little variety.

  1. Mendi, First... the layout is fabulous! I always love what you do. Second... Thank-you for doing scrapbook pages. So many others have started just posting cards. I miss the tons of inspiration that was out there in the past. I still love scrapbooking and you have many times cured my scrapers block!!! I know pages are a great deal more work than making cards so I applaud you for still doing scrapbook pages.

    1. Thanks Sandy! It makes me so happy that I'm able to inspire you. I'm super sad to see scrapbooking declining too. I love making cards, but I don't see myself ever losing my love for scrapbooking. ;)
