Fun Ideas for Die Cutting With Patterned Paper Featuring Doodlebug
Hello, crafty friends! This is Emily Leiphart and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog, featuring Doodlebug’s Gingham-Linen Rainbow Petite Prints 12×12” Cardstock Paper.

It’s versatile enough to make cards for individuals of all ages, and the designs are super adorable! For my first project, I created a mini slimline card measuring at 3.5” x 6.5”. I then used the Dancin’ Birthday Monster Etched Dies to die-cut three little monsters from a variety of colored card stock. The fun part about this card is that the monsters’ legs swing back and forth when you tilt the card from side to side. For my card background, I…
