Beach Day Layout with Emmy

Hello BoBunny fans!

Emmy here today with my second post featuring the amazing Escape to Paradise collection from BoBunny.

To create my background I used Double Dot cardstock and pattern paper. I cut three stripes from the pattern paper, distressed its edges and adhered it to the cardstock. Then I added a dimensional white layer using texture paste and a stickable stencil. Once the paste has dried, I adhered the yellow stripes using mounting foam tape.

Then I used Vicki Boutin ink pads with clear stamps to add fun designs to my background. 

To decorate my page I used various stickers, fussy cut images and die cut shapes.

To create my banner I used pre-cut shapes, stickers and pearls.

For my title I used a quote from the Noteworthy pack and Double Dot cardstock. 

I hope you enjoyed today's post! Until next time!

Felicity and Pentart Contour Liners with Irene

Hello BoBunny fans! It's Irene here with my first post for 2017 and today, I'm going to show you all how you can create some fun and interesting embellishments to decorate your projects with. Can you guess it from the picture below? Yes, some acetate or transparency butterflies!.

Altered Mail Art by Irene Tan

Here are three very simple steps along with a picture tutorial on how to create these fun butterflies.

First, you will need the Flutter Dies and a piece of transparency or acetate. Use the dies on the transparency via a die cutting machine. The thin dies won't cut through the transparency but it will form a gorgeous embossed image. You can fussy cut out the outer lines of the butterflies using scissors.

Second, you will want  to outline and color some parts of the butterflies using Pentart Contour Liners. These areas will be resistant to the glass paint that we will be using in the next step. Make sure it dries completely before proceeding to the next step.

Next, paint the butterflies using a brush and some glass paints, I did not fully cover the butterflies as I want to have the translucent effect on them. TWhen all are painted and dried, you can start adding more dimensions and details to them. You can fold up their wings, add more details using Pearlescents and Double Dot jewels.

Hope you all like this simple tutorial and see you all soon!

Party With Toy Box!

Hi BoBunny fans!

Today I would like to show you a party set I made with the adorable Toy Box collection and BoBunny's new white gesso. I just love playing with mixed media and had a wonderful time working with white gesso and a heart mask.

I made a card and a tag and also altered a kraft gift envelope for my niece's birthday party. She will turn 6 soon and she loves animals, so the Toy Box collection was just perfect to make her something. 

On my card I used a lot of layering of papers and chipboard embellishments. I also decorated the background paper with white hearts, which I made with the heart mask from the 'Love' stickable stencils and white gesso. I also added blue jewels to the heart for some extra sparkle. 

The craft envelope is also decorated with white gesso hearts, as well as a chipboard sticker and some chipboard buttons.

Patterned Papers: ABC, Blocks, Cheerful, Recess/ Toy Box
Buttons: Toy Box
Chipboard: Toy Box Layered Chipboard
Stickable Stencils: Love

The Very Versatile Safari Collection!

Hello Bo Bunny fans, it's Gabrielle here with you today to share my latest layout using Bo Bunny's Safari collection and featuring their brilliant Aqua Jewels! 

Inside Your Heart by Gabrielle Pollacco

 So, you bought the Safari collection to scrap all those photos you took with the kids at the Zoo or on a special vacation.  But now you've got some leftover paper.  What I love about BoBunny's themed collections is that they can be used for everyday photos as well!  I was just crazy about these grungy wall papers, so I started with these as my base for this page of my dear husband and me.

I took the grunge look a little further by tearing out sections of the turquoise wall paper and exposing the aged brick paper behind it. Before I glued it together I sandwiched some tattered cheesecloth between the layers.  I used the Chocolate Pearlescent to add 'rivets' to the edges of the paper.

I began creating a background for my photo area by first dry brushing some Gesso on the area, then I used the NEW Cascade stickable stencil with some texture paste on the same area.  Then I added some richness to the design by adding a bunch of the small gems from the Aqua Jewels pack at the cross sections of the Moroccan.design.

I tucked a wood piece from the Ironworks Wood designs package behind the photo, removing the center disc (to be used in my floral cluster - below), and then filled the cavity with a variety of gems from the Aqua Jewels packet. 

Finally, I wanted some rustic looking blooms for this page so I used a daisy floral punch on some neutral color papers from a 6x6 paper pad from the Heritage collection.  I layered a few of the punched blooms and added a circle of burlap to the center.
