Doilies may be generally thought of as a lacey item used in home decor, but they function just as well as a lovely touch for our scrapbooking creations.

BasicGrey - Hello Luscious Collection - 12 x 12 Die Cut Paper - Doilies

Doilies don't always have to be round either! This doily-like pattern would be a beautiful way to dress up a plain cardstock background.

Kaisercraft - Mini Crochet Doilies - Summer

These mini-doilies can serve as cute little flowers. A decorative brad can dress them up even further and also serve the function of connecting them to the page.

Take these kraft cardstock doiles and customize them with color however you please...or leave them plain for understated elegance.

Websters Pages - Designer Threads - Fabric Embroidery Pieces - Doilies
