Mama came out to scrap with me for a couple of days in early February. As y'all know, I've been enjoying using doilies on cards and layouts lately, so I mentioned to Mama that we should use a doily on all our layouts because it's FUN . . . and I have amassed quite a stash recently.
We had a great time creating a bunch of layouts and used a doily on almost every one!
So, of course, I had to use several doilies on the layout about our crop together, which we started calling "doily days."
I printed a filmstrip of photos showcasing some of our layouts along with a photo of me & Mama in my craft room.
The problem with these doilies is that there are 75 in a package. That's a lot of doily in one color, but I've found that sharing them is a fantastic way to keep the stash in check . . . and reserve room to add more colors! Have you used any doilies lately? If you could only choose one, which color doily would you pick for your crafting?
I have not used any doilies lately but think they would look great in a mini album or too! :) Love your "doily day" with your Mama and your layouts!
ReplyDeleteWell, you've probably already guessed that I'd be singing the praises of the doily! Such a great way to ground other elements on the page. I only have white and one red heart shaped one I'm saving for just the right occasion
ReplyDeleteI use doilies occasionally, but not very often. Thus, my collection is still plentiful!
ReplyDeleteI don't have any, but these look great on your pages. You could always use up some on a cakestand?
ReplyDeleteIf I could only choose one - it would be white - because I could paint or spray or stain it to any color... and white is all I have. Doilies don't seem to be all that popular around here and I've only been able to find one style at the Dollar Stores.
ReplyDeleteI love that photo of you and your mom. I have quite a few styles of white doilies and use them for entertaining more often that in scrapbooking. I have a few red and pink ones in my scrapbook stash, but I don't think I've ever used one.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great! My new scrapbooking goal is at least one layout a week. I organized my 2014 photos the other night and will jump in to them soon.

I have used a few recently, but can only get them in white here...I tint them with ink pads! Xx
ReplyDeleteGreat layout! I've been using doilies, but I spray the White ones with mist to change up the colours.
