Awesome Alpha Tutorial!


Good Morning! It's Lynn here today and I'm going to show you some fun ways to use the Carnival Collection and the Tuxedo Alphabet Stickers.

Misc.Me Binder by Lynn Shokoples for BoBunny featuring the Carnival Collection

First off, I decorated the Gold and Kraft Binder. I wanted to keep the gold circles, so I used my circle punch and some of the sheets from the 6x6 Paper Pad. A fun way to add just a little extra to the binder cover. I then tucked the Tuxedo Alphabet Stickers to make a title in between the circles.

This Fall my family and I went on a healthy eating lifestyle change. We have had a ton of fun trying new recipes and adapting some of our favourites as well. Needless to say I spend a ton of time in the kitchen, so I thought the title "Sideshow" was a good idea, lol.. For my Misc. Me pages I chose two sheets of patterned paper from the collection and cut them into pieces to fit the pockets. It still gives the look of the full sheet, but it easily fits into the 12x12 binder pages.The Tuxedo Alphabet Sticker sheet has three colors on it, so I mixed up the black, white and grey alphabet stickers to add that little something extra to the pockets.

There are so many different ways to use the Alphabet Stickers. You can use them for titles, for borders, or just too add a word here and there on your pockets. For the title I took the "Sideshow" banner and added the "cooking and baking" just above it. Letter stickers are fun, and I think the most fun is not making them straight and in a perfect line.

The White stickers really popped on the grey background. The other fun thing to do is add numbers for words like in the title "Tea 4 Two".

My kitchen is usually in a state of chaos, so I thought the crooked letters really emphasized that.

Here I just chose random letters to frame the photo card. A great way to use up those extra z's and q's.

Down the side of a card, across the top, on the bottom, where ever you want to stick the alphabets is fine. Experiment and have fun.

Here are just some random words that seem to be in my everyday vocabulary lately!

Here I used some random letters again just to frame the chipboard piece and too add just a little something extra.

The photos I printed off an app I use on my phone to take daily photos, so I used the stickers to make larger words on the cards. "Yikes" is what I usually say at the end of the day when the kitchen is a complete disaster, lol. The important thing to remember is, have fun, play around, mix and match your letters and see what fun things you can do!! Until next time.....
