Misc Me Tutorial!


Hello there BoBunny fans , Bernii here and welcome to Misc Me Monday! I just love using my Misc Me 8 x 9 albums especially when I have a handful of photos that are just to much to put into a single or double layout, but I find it hard to only select a few photos. This was the case with these special photos of my daughter graduating Kindergarten a few years ago. When I first saw the pretty shine from the new Kraft and Gold 8x9 album I knew it would be perfect to house the precious memories from that day,

I teamed my photos with another new release from BoBunny - the Sweet Life Journaling Cards in the new 4x4 and 2x2 format and the super exciting new alphabet sticker sheets from the Double Dot range. 

These new alphas are just perfect to use on any project, but it is especially a perfect size to use in the Misc Me pocket squares. So today I wanted to share with you all a mini tutorial on how to perfectly line up your alphas every time on any project that you use! I promise. 

So let's take a look at my process : 

To start off with you will need a ruler . If you like to be precise with measuring from the edges of your photos, I would suggest that you use a ruler with a cm measurement like the one pictured below.

Then start to create the word or title that you want with the Alphabet stickers. If you would like you could also use the ruler measurements to make sure that each letter is perfectly spaced. When you place the alphas onto the ruler only attach the bottom half of the ruler - as you will need the top half to adhere it into the desired place.

Once you have all of the alphas that you would like to use, then using the ruler and the measurements line up the ruler to te exact place you want the stickers. Placing the alphas onto the ruler is great, as you can look at what your alphas might look like in diferent parts of your layout or mini - before you adhere it down.

Then once you are happy with where you would like your your BoBunny alphabet stickers to go, simply lay the ruler down flat, adhere the top half of the stickers, and while holding down the top half, slowly twist out the ruler from underneath so that it comes away from the ruler.

Once you have removed the ruler simply pat down the bottom half of the alphabet stickers.

Then if you would like to add a little interest and some more adherence to your photos you could also run the stickers through the sewing machine.

So as you can see in just a few easy steps  you can get the perfect placement of your BoBunny Alphabet Stickers each and every time , with out the heartache of having to try and peel of stickers to reposition them . Here is another example from my album that shows how I used the same technique.
