Our Year | February Fox Box | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends!

Do you find it satisfying to look back on a year well lived? 2025 was definitely one of those years for me and the Our Year perspextive title from the February 2026 Fox Box was the perfect addition to my layout. My layout brings together a collection of favourite moments from 2025, stitched into a story that feels both intentional and joy-filled.

I’ve worked with a classic grid style design here, letting each small photo act as a snapshot of the bigger picture. From everyday smiles to milestone days, this grid format makes it easy to see how the year unfolded—one fun moment at a time with the ones I love—while still feeling cohesive and calm. The collection I reached for, to tie perfectly with the gorgeous Bramble Fox February Fox Box goodies, was the Storyteller collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio.

The collection I reached for, to tie perfectly with the gorgeous Bramble Fox February Fox Box goodies, was the Storyteller collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio.

Soft blues, warm yellows, and pops of coral are layered throughout my layout with florals, banners, and tabs to gently guide the eye around the page. I love how these small embellishments help highlight certain stories without overpowering the photos themselves. The Bramble Fox 'Our Year' perspextive title in the centre anchors the entire design. Paired with handwritten-style phrases from Paper Snips #87 in the February Fox Box with phrases like “The Story Of Us,” “Happy Times,” and “A Day to Remember,” everything helps to tell the story from our year.

I have included 12 smaller photos, all changed to black and white - one photo to represent each of the 12 months of the year, choosing a highlight from every month and printing a single photo to tell that part of our story, it was difficult to narrow the chosen photo down as some months had some great photos!

What really helps bring this layout to life are the tiny details—buttons, butterflies, labels, and stitched accents—all working together to support the photos and journaling prompts. Even without long blocks of writing, the words scattered across the page tell a clear story: joy, connection, celebration, and togetherness.

If you’re looking for a way to document a year without overwhelming yourself, a project like this is a wonderful place to start. A single page, meaningful photos, the Bramble Fox February 2026 Fox Box goodies, and just enough words to let your heart fill in the rest.

Thanks for stopping by today, I can’t wait to see how you tell your own story!

Snow Happy Together | Snow Much Fun collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends! 

Winter memories deserve a special place, and this scrapbook layout captures the magic of snowy days perfectly! Using the Snow Much Fun collection by Doodlebug Design, this page is a delightful mix of cool tones, playful patterns, and charming embellishments that bring the season to life.

The background features layered patterned papers in shades of icy blue, lavender, and teal, creating a frosty yet cheerful vibe. Snowflake prints and hand drawn borders add texture and depth, making the layout feel cozy and complete.

At the heart of the design is a grid-style photo arrangement, accented with adorable die cuts from the Bits and Pieces and Odds and Ends packs and stickers from the This and That sticker sheet. Elements like the “Snow FUN!” speech bubble, winter critters, and frosty icons tie the theme together beautifully. The title, “Snow Happy Together,” pops in bold blue and green, perfectly summing up the joy of winter adventures.

Tips:

Arrange 6–9 small square photos in a grid format. This keeps the layout balanced and allows room for embellishments.

Mix in a few patterned paper squares or die-cut shapes (like hearts or circles) within the grid for variety.

Additional details like the “Baby It’s Cold Outside” border strip, cute fox Doodle Pop, and layered tags give the page a polished, professional look while keeping it fun and whimsical. The combination of playful fonts and vibrant colors makes this layout a true celebration of winter fun.

If you’re looking for inspiration for your own seasonal scrapbook, the Snow Much Fun collection is a must-have. Its versatile patterns and charming embellishments make it easy to create projects that are as joyful as the memories they hold.

Remember When | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends!

There’s something magical about revisiting cherished memories and bringing them to life through creative storytelling. Today’s layout is all about capturing those nostalgic moments using the beautiful 'Remember When' perspextive acrylic piece, paired with Paper Snips #55 and #76, and the subtle elegance of stencil #129. I paired the beautiful Bramble Fox products with the Memory Lane collection by Fancy Pants Designs.

The focal point of this layout is the timeless photograph framed in a delicate floral oval, surrounded by soft, romantic tones. The 'Remember When' perspextive title takes centre stage, perfectly setting the tone for a journey back in time. It’s bold yet elegant, drawing the eye immediately to the heart of the story.

To complement the theme, Paper Snips #55 and #76 were used to add meaningful phrases and vintage-inspired accents. Elements like “Memory Lane,” “These Days,” and “Yesterday” evoke a sense of reflection and warmth. The charming chair and camera motifs add a cozy, homely feel, reinforcing the idea of treasured family moments.

The background features a soft diamond pattern created with Stencil #129, adding subtle texture without overwhelming the design. This gentle detail enhances the layered look and gives the layout depth, making the central cluster pop beautifully.

Butterflies, florals, and vintage ephemera complete the composition, creating a harmonious blend of nature and nostalgia. The muted color palette, combined with pops of gold and earthy tones, ties everything together for a timeless aesthetic.

This layout is a perfect example of how the gorgeous Bramble Fox products can transform a simple memory into a piece of art. The combination of acrylic titles, paper snips, and stencils allows for endless creativity while keeping the story front and centre!

Winter Fun | Snow Much Fun collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Happy New Year creative friends! 

When winter rolls around, it’s the perfect excuse to dive into cool colors and playful patterns—and the Snow Much Fun collection by Doodlebug Design Inc delivers exactly that. This collection is packed with cheerful winter colors and the cutest little characters—perfect for documenting those chilly adventures!

For this page, I started with a soft snowflake-patterned background to set the wintery scene. Then, I created a vertical strip design using 3 different patterned papers. I love mixing patterns, and the variety of papers makes it so easy with its playful plaids, polka dots, and snowflake prints in shades of blue, purple, and mint. To add extra interest, I distressed along the edges of each strip for a textured touch.

The photo takes center stage, framed by a layer of patterned paper from the 6'x 6' paper pad and accented with sweet embellishments. I couldn’t resist adding the little girl die-cut bundled up in her winter gear and ice skates—she’s just too cute and mimics my photo! Around the photo, I tucked in some snowy trees and a penguin Doodlepop for that whimsical winter vibe.

For the title, I used the large 'Winter' title die-cut and the separate 'Fun' banner die-cut, popping it up with foam adhesive for dimension. A few snowflake die-cuts scattered around the page add movement and tie everything together. To finish, I stamped the date, added some white mist sprinkles and added a small sticker that reads 'Winter Wonderland'—because that’s exactly what this day felt like!

This layout came together so quickly thanks to the coordinated elements in the Snow Much Fun collection. If you’re looking for a way to capture your snowy memories, this line is an absolute must-have!

Happy crafting!

All the Cozy Things | January Fox Box | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends! 

This scrapbook layout is all about All the Things—the little moments, the comfy details, and the feeling of being wrapped up in togetherness. Using gorgeous items from the January Fox Box by Bramble Fox, I wanted to document a simple but meaningful memory through a lens of warmth, comfort, and home.

The navy perspextive 'All the Things' title, layered with a small 'cozy' word sticker, anchors the page at the bottom, grounding the layout and tying the theme together. Adding that single word sticker opened the door to incorporating so many of the January Fox Box Perspextives and Paper Snips, since they all tie so beautifully into a cozy, at-home theme. It’s a reminder of the laughter, the snuggles, the quiet moments, and the joy found in everyday comfort.

What I love most about my layout is how it celebrates all the cozy things without feeling heavy. The colour palette—muted teals, warm rusts, soft creams, and golden yellows—feels inviting and nostalgic. Icons like the fireplace, slippers, scarves, and stacked books instantly bring that “let’s stay home” feeling to life.

The design naturally flows in a soft wreath shape, which felt perfect for this theme. It creates a visual hug around the page, leaving open space in the centre for the photo and journaling to breathe. From mugs of tea and knitted hats, to books, florals, and cozy phrases, every embellishment adds to the story of slowing down and enjoying the season.

If you love storytelling through layers, thoughtful embellishments, and cohesive themes, the January Fox Box is full of pieces that make it easy to capture those meaningful moments—all the things that matter most.

Christmas Tree | Oh What Fun collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Looking for a festive and colourful holiday craft to decorate your home with? This cute Christmas Tree project is the perfect way to add a pop of cheer to your seasonal décor! Using the vibrant and gorgeous Oh What Fun collection by Doodlebug Design Inc, I created a whimsical tree that’s full of bright colours, personality and charm.

Step x step Instructions:

Prepare Your Base

Start with a foam cone shape as your tree base. This will give your project structure and make layering easy.

Create Colorful Layers

Punch or cut scalloped strips from the patterned papers in the 6' x 8' paper pad in the Oh What Fun collection. These bright, playful designs are perfect for creating a rainbow effect!
Begin at the bottom of the cone and work your way up, overlapping each layer slightly for a full, textured look. I used 2 different size and shaped scalloped border punches to create mine and I adhered the paper strips to the cone using a mix of double sided tape and wet glue. 

Add Festive Details

Once your tree is covered in scalloped layers, decorate with die-cut ornaments, stickers, and sprinkles from the collection. Mix and match shapes and colours for a fun, eclectic vibe. I used pieces from the Bits and Pieces, Odds and Ends, Chit Chat pack, DoodlePops and the This and That sticker sheet. I used foam tape on some of the embellishments to help make them pop off the tree!

Top It Off
Finish your tree with a star or a standout embellishment at the top. A glittery star sticker or a layered paper star works beautifully! I used 2 of the transparent star pieces from the Odds and Ends pack and layered a star sticker over the top.

Personalize It

Add a sentiment like “Merry Christmas” around the base using the collection’s word stickers or cut-apart pieces. This adds a sweet finishing touch. I chose the red and white Merry Christmas banner from the Chit Chat pack.

Gift puffy stickers were placed at the bottom of the tree and once I was happy with how the tree looked, I added some glitter glue (Kindyglitz) to the edges of the scallop paper pieces for a touch of sparkle!

This foam Christmas tree was not only easy to make but also a great way to showcase the playful patterns and colours of the gorgeous Oh What Fun collection. It’s perfect for:

• Christmas table centrepieces
• Mantel or home décor
• A handmade gift for someone special

Thank you so much for stopping by the Doodlebug blog today and for your support all year! I wish you and your family a safe, healthy and Merry Christmas.

Happy crafting!

Celebrate December | Bramble Fox

Hi creative friends, 

There’s something magical about putting together a Christmas layout, and this project might be one of my favourites of the season! Today I’m sharing a bright and joyful Christmas page featuring a navy December perspextive title from Bramble Fox, paired with the Oh What Fun collection by Pinkfresh Studio.These products truly feel like they were made for each other—fresh colours, playful icons, and plenty of festive charm.

I began the layout by building everything around my Christmas tree photo and the gorgeous December perspextive title. Its bold navy colour and smooth acrylic finish create instant impact at the top of the page. I tucked a soft script word—celebrate—just above it for an extra layer of texture without overpowering the statement piece. The combination adds the perfect title to the design.

On the left side of the layout, I enhanced the cascading wall of ornaments on the patterned paper by adding the Festive Ornaments perspextives to them. The variety of shapes, colours, and patterns gives the page so much movement! I staggered the pieces to make them feel like they’re dangling from the pine boughs illustrated at the top corner. A few gold stars and gold twine bows add sparkle and dimension, tying everything together beautifully.

To the right of the photo, I layered a tag, enamel dots, a sweet ballerina perspextive ornament, and small die-cut icons for added detail. These little moments of decoration help balance the busy ornament cluster on the left while keeping the layout cohesive.

My tip: Use foam adhesive under nearby paper pieces to match the dimension of the acrylic—this creates a smooth visual flow and helps the title sit naturally on the page.

Every element—colours, shapes, textures, and layers—work together to highlight the joy and magic of December. The combination of the December perspextive title and the Christmas collection creates such a fresh, modern holiday look, and I absolutely love how this layout turned out.

If you're looking to document your own festive memories, these products are a perfect match for creating pages that sparkle with joy and story-telling charm.

Our Christmas Tree | Sugar Plum collection | Pretty Little Studio

 Hi creative friends, 

The Christmas season is the perfect time to capture those magical moments, and what better way to do it than with a stunning scrapbook layout? Today, I’m sharing a design that combines mixed media techniques with the beautiful Sugar Plum collection by Pretty Little Studio. This layout celebrates the heart of Christmas—our tree!

The layout is created by layering scalloped strips of patterned paper from the Sugar Plum collection. These strips cascade down the page in shades of pink, red, and white that draws the eye straight to the centerpiece photo of our beautifully decorated Christmas tree.

To add depth and texture, I started with a white cardstock base and applied a soft watercolor wash in pink tones behind the tree shape. A few splatters of red ink give the page a playful, festive vibe. This subtle mixed media background enhances the patterned layers without overpowering them.

The Sugar Plum collection shines through in the details:

Die-cut words like Joy and Love add a heartfelt touch.

Tiny icons—candy canes, ornaments, and snowflakes—are sprinkled throughout for extra charm.

A bold title, “Our Christmas Tree,” anchors the design and balances the photo.

The photo itself is framed with coordinating patterned paper, making it pop against the layers.

The combination of structured layers and free-flowing mixed media creates a dynamic, eye-catching design. The Sugar Plum collection provides the perfect palette of reds, pinks, and whimsical holiday motifs, making this layout both festive and elegant.

To complete the layout, I added:

Labels and tabs for journaling and dates.

Dimensional elements like foam adhesive under some strips for a layered effect.

A mix of hearts and festive phrases to tie everything together.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you get to enjoy some crafty time this Christmas season!

Happy creating!

Ho Ho Ho | Oh What Fun collection | Doodlebug Design Inc

Hi creative friends, 

Christmas is the perfect time to get creative, and today I’m sharing a festive layout that will make your memories shine! Using the super cute and gorgeous Oh What Fun Collection by Doodlebug Design Inc, I created a playful Christmas tree design that’s bursting with colour, cheer, and adorable details.

Instead of a traditional tree, I built a tree shape using stickers and embellishments from the Chit Chat, Odds and Ends, Bits and Pieces packs, This and That stickers, Shape Sprinkles, Puffy stickers and of course some Doodle Pops! This design draws the eye straight to the center where the photo sits, making it the star of the show while surrounded by holiday magic.

Base & Background: I started with a crisp white cardstock background framed with a bright red patterned paper for a pop of color.

Tree Shape: The tree is formed by layering gift box die-cuts and stickers in a triangular arrangement. Each piece adds texture and dimension, creating a fun stacked-present look. I adhered 90% of the embellishments using foam tape to create that dimension and shadows. 

Photo Placement: The photo is nestled in the center of the tree, framed by cheerful elements like candy canes, bows, and gingerbread characters.

The Oh What Fun Collection is packed with gorgeous whimsical icons—elves, ornaments, toys, gingerbread people, stars, and sweet treats. I added:

Doodle-Pops for a 3D effect.

Shape Sprinkles and Puffy stickers to fill in gaps and add pops of color.

A star sticker at the top to complete the tree look.

A festive light garland die-cut topped with Shape Sprinkles to enhance it across the top of the page for extra holiday charm.

To tie everything together, I added a stitched border around the layout and a playful “Merry Christmas” sentiment at the bottom. The result? A bright, joyful page that captures the spirit of the season.

I love how this layout turned out and I love that it’s a creative way to showcase a single photo while using up lots of fun embellishments. Plus, the tree shape makes it instantly festive!

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you get some time to craft this holiday season! Why not start by using the Oh What Fun collection?! You will love it!

Happy crafting!
