Sunday Fun-day Party!

Mohito party by Agnieszka Bellaidea

With warmer and warmer Summer days there is a big need for drinking stations in the garden,

Why to wait for weekend or party if we can set up little table with drinks and healthy snack for everyday use.

My kids love Mohito /virgin version of course! We have plenty of mint in our garden so with a little help from BoBunny I created fun and festive decoration for this week. And best of all there is still time to order Firecracker collection to make lovely decorations for any party with family and friends.

My wooden box was decorated with mini banner.

Every glass got decoration from Firecracker papers, I love to use this die !

Even water bottles got special labels!

1 Autumn Layout 3 Ways!

Hi! Ulrika here to show you my version of 1 layout 3 ways.

A fun way to show you that you can make a clean and simple layout, but you can also decide to add elements if you want work more on it!

I have worked with the crisp Enchanted Harvest. I started out with a white Double Dot cardstock attached on a brown paper.

I attached a few paper pieces and added two flowers!

Vackra höst (Beautiful autumn) by Ulrika Wandler

If you decide that you want to work more on your layout, you can for example use mist on your background card stock.

I also added a flower, a die cut border and one more flower.

Finally you can add some more medium on your layout. I used Glitter paste
on my flowers and used a beautiful stamp. I also added some diecut flourish to the
flowers and some gold foil.

Dreamy Juliet!

Oh wow I just can't get enough of the "Juliet"collection thank you so much BoBunny for making such a great line to work with!

Always dream layout by Amy Voorthuis

 When My brother send me this picture of his beautiful Daughter I knew exactly that I was going to use the "Juliet" collection. Because of the pinks & reds. 

This picture was taken at a photo shoot for a clothing line of a huge Dutch company. They were the first company that mixed up red & pink in a piece of clothing which was a taboo when I was growing up in the eighties!

At the moment I am totally hooked on those buckles I got in dollar store they look amazing on any project. I use a couple of stamps on this layout & also the pretty stickable stencils. The new BoBunny Dies add a beautiful touch. You can see I tucked them in here and there.

The butterfly stamps I stamped on the "Juliet"Amore sheet and then cut it out of the papers and on their body's I used the pretty jewels BoBunny offers. 

I hope you liked my layout and I want to thank you for your visit today. If you can get a hold of this beautiful line you must it's amazing! I can't wait to see what you create with it.

Alpha Stickers & Mixed Media!

Hello friends! I love the new Double Dot Alpha Stickers - both the size and the colors are so versatile for all types of projects.  Today I am sharing some mixed media projects, showcasing the Tuxedo alpha stickers & the new Carnival collection.

One of my favorite ways to unwind and express myself creatively is Art Journaling.  It is a great way to collect favorite quotes or thoughts, and to experiment with various mixed media techniques.  Here is the page I created for today, with one of my favorite song lyrics:

Just to Love by Keri Babbitt

The bold black Tuxedo alpha stickers create the focal point on the left side, with a long song lyric quote.  I love how the words pop off the layered background.

I love the color combination of pinks & blues, and I've explored this palette here, with glimmer spray, ink, pearlescents, and glitter pastes in blue/pink/gold hues.

The different art mediums soak into the vintage journal paper in different ways, and it is fun to watch them as they dry and blend.  I played around with techniques like dripping, blotting, brushing, and masking on this page.

Along with art mediums, I layered with thin accents, like washi tape, vellum, and Noteworthy diecuts.  All of these products come together in an interesting way when experimenting in the freestyle process of art journaling. 

Another favorite for me is creating ATC's with little tidbits and leftovers after an art journal project.  Here is a simple gold-themed ATC I created with art journal scraps:

Life's A Circus Wagon!

Hiya Bo Bunny Fans Tracee with you today on Off The Page Wednesday!

Life Is A Circus by Tracee Provis

I fell in love with the fun animals in the Carnival Collection coupled with my love of making balloon ornaments, I created this Circus Wagon being pulled along by a giraffe. I incorporated some of the new dies and stencils both on the balloon and the Wagon. The Wagon also holds a little surprise that will be revealed on a later date.

I used the Elegant border die and the 3 x 4 Lattice Frame die to add details along the front and the top of the Wagon, the fine details in the dies add a delicate and almost magical touch to the project.

I cut out some circles of Cardstock and added some buttons from the same Carnival Collection to create some wheels on the Wagon.

I used the Aqua Double dot Alphabet, to spell out a title, in the frame on the front of my project.

I simply adhered the large giraffe, from the Noteworthy pack, to some corrugated cardboard and glued that to a base of the same cardboard covered with patterned paper, I added a leash for him to pull the Wagon along.

Here you can also see where I used the cascade stencil and some Bronze Glitter paste to the bottom half of the balloon form. As they are peelable they are great for sticking to curvy surfaces.

For the main balloon for I used strips of paper from the 6 x 6 to cover it I cut the film strip piece out of the Carnival sheet and used it as a centre piece on the balloon, the bunting was added by cutting small triangles and attaching them to some string.

I cut the smaller animals from various sheets in the collection and popped them onto the top of the wagon... "How cute do they look?".

Finally to the top added a fussy cut masquerade mask and a banner piece from the Button pack. It adds that final theatrical touch to my fun circus themed project.

I hope you enjoyed it and are inspired to create your own projects using this fun BoBunny Carnival Collection.

Fabulous Foil Rubons! A Must Have!!

Hello Friends! I was so excited to be assigned the new Silver Filigree Metallic Rubons as a featured item for my project today!

U and Me Scrapbook Page by Rhonda Van Ginkel

 I absolutely love the  rubons and the way they add so much to your page without adding a ton of bulk.  The shimmer of these is simply fantastic!

I used the Love sentiment onto my photo, the Flourishes are to the left of my layers and the Doily on right right corner are from the Filagree Silver Foil pack. 

My layers start with some stamping first using Distressed Textures on my background paper with Licorice Ink. Next is a scalloped rectangle Noteworthy element followed by the Film Tape from Rose Cafe. Next, is a piece of corrugated cardboard that I peeled, then added some Pearlescents in Silver, Blush and Brilliant Blue. While that was drying, I used my Love Stickable Stencils along with Glitter Paste in Sugar. I cut a border from the Elegant Border Die and trimmed to 3 sections long, then layered it under the cardboard and stitched into place.

Using my coordinating 6x6 Garden Journal Paper Pad, I cut the papers using the 4x4 Portrait Frame Dies and adhered the layers to one another. Cut it in half, then adhered to my matted photo from behind. Attached some cheese cloth to my photo layer from behind, then attached foam squares to provide a bit of dimension.

With the remaining section from the border die cut, I folded it in half and glued it together.  I used it as the heart accent in the upper left on the Noteworthy tag banner and added a pearl Jewel to it. A few Blossoms, Jewel Flourishes and a Brad finish the page. 

I hope you get a chance to pick up some of the new Foil Rubons, you will really love the versatility and elegance that they add to your projects.
