Hello Bo Bunny fans and happy September! I hope everyone had a great weekend and is having a great start to their week!
Today we are focusing on simple and embellished layouts on the blog. We know some people like clean and simple and others love fussy and embellished. Our designers were given the task of making both groups happy with our STEP IT UP challenge! Each designer created a simple, yet elegant layout and then stepped it up with lots of fun embellishments. It was so fun to see their simple and embellished versions of the same layout. It's hard not to love either version!

ReplyDeleteLove both versions of the layouts. But, wow by just adding a few embellishments or techniques sure changes the looks of the layouts. Thanks for sharing the befores/afters.
ReplyDeletethat's how I function when I make a page, simple first, then adding details ! Sometimes I stop early, sometimes not !
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this post. I often wonder how my lo's just aren't the same but it's those little things that make all the difference....I really like the stitching, so I'm gonna have to break out the machine, lol.
ReplyDeletehow do u add a photo to your facebook page? There's no "add photo" anywhere.
ReplyDeleteMahlin: I love what you did on your LO w/ the flaps - Such a nice technique!
