The BoBunny Blog: A Merry Misc Me Christmas!

Welcome to another day of inspiration with BoBunny and Leaky Shed chipboard. When I looked at my stash with photos, I noticed that I still had quite a lot of Christmas and winter photos from last year that I hadn't scrapped yet. Since I didn't want to create a separate lay-out for each photo, I decided to record them in my Misc Me life journal. I just love this BoBunny journal system and it enabled me to create a pretty documentation of my Christmas photos and memories.

For my Misc Me pages, I used a combination of the Candy Cane Lane Misc Me cards and the Christmas Collage collection. Some of the Candy Cane Lane cards had a vintage look that matched the Christmas Collage collection just perfectly.

On my second page I incorporated a beautiful corner flourish from Leaky Shed. At first, I wanted to cover it in glitter or heat emboss it, but in the end I decided to keep it natural. The brown tone of the flourish actually matched the vintage colours in the Christmas Collage collection quite well.

I used the chipboard embellishments and buttons from the Christmas Collage collection to further embellish my pages. As you can see on the photo above, I added some of the embellishments on the page itself (inside the sleeves) and some of them on top of the sleeves. This allowed me to incorporate as many layers as I wanted.

On the page above, I used the Christmas tree from Leaky Shed. Again, I didn't decorate it with any mediums, but just kept it as it was. I loved the chipboard piece with the text "Eat, Drink & Be Merry" as it suited the photo of me and my boyfriend just perfectly. It was taken at Christmas dinner last year and represents just how we felt at that moment.

A few days before Christmas, my boyfriend taught me how to ice skate. I hadn't skated for at least 7 years and was pretty afraid to start doing it again, but it turned out that I actually wasn't as bad as I expected to be. We had a wonderful time. I scrapped this photo in my Misc Me December pages as well. As you can see on the photo above, I used some of the pre-made Candy Cane Lane journal cards, but also hand-cut a few cards from the Christmas Collage papers.
