Inspired By

The Bo Bunny designers were asked to create a project inspired by this image found on Pinterest.



Here is how they were inspired:
Juliana notes, "I was inspired by the colors in the pillow and the circles reminded me of flowers. I cut out the branch, bird and flower images from the Squiggles Paper and then layered some of the Dimensional stickers on it for more depth and interest."



Love | Juliana Michaels

Bo Bunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Stitches, Burst and Squiggles/Alora
Stickers: Alora Dimensional and Combo Stickers
Buttons: Alora
Chipboard: Alora 12 x 12 and Layered Chipboard


Designer Tip:
For this layout, Juliana cut out the branch and flower image from the Alora Squiggles paper and then added dimension by layering the Alora Dimensional stickers over matching flowers on the branch.  If you want to create more "dimensional" stickers, cut out images from your patterned papers and layer them.  Dress them up with jewels or even glitter glue if desired.

Designer tip: When working with alphas that blend into your background, I take a black fine tip marker and outline the alphas to make them stand out more!


Debbie shared that, "When I saw this photo I knew that I wanted to create a layout highlighting the circular elements. I created some small lollies and used them as the background of some of the flowers. To continue with the circular elements I used a die cut doily to keep your eye moving around the layout."

What do you use to inspire you?  Is it another scrapbook page? Your favorite Bo Bunny papers and products? Your photos? Things you see online in such places as Pinterest? Magazine ads? Inspiration is every where.  Where ever you get your inspiration, I believe there can never be too many things to look at and be inspired by.  Today we asked several of the Bo Bunny designers to use the following image found online to inspire them.  Does it inspire you?  If so how?  We would love to see what you create!




Tara shared this about how the image inspired her layout: "When I saw this image it instantly reminded me of a vintage quilt. All the colours are so vibrant and the flowers, so feminine. I created this layout with these characteristics in mind. To mimic the pattern in the quilt, I added some stitching throughout my layout in a similar design."

Mahlin stated, "I was also inspired by the quilt look, but I chose to switch up the colors and I also wanted to create a more simple layout than I usually do to enhance the stitching a bit more."

Sam said, " I was initially inspired by the reds and all the patterns of the various fabric which is the reason I layered the patterned paper. I chose to use Alora as it contains the red but is not too harsh for this baby photo.  The chevron pattern made me think of the hearts."

Today we asked the Bo Bunny designers to use the following photo to inspire them.  As you can see each one was inspired a bit differently as they created their layout.


Gabrielle shared with us how she was inspired by the image. "I loved the fresh summery colors in this photo, so I picked up the soft blues, greens, white and touch of yellow in the Country Garden collection to reflect the page. I used the dark blue butterflies to add the touch of darker blue."

Last but not least, we have a card by Robbie!  She shared "When I was looking at the picture, I was drawn to the dark blue pillow. The print on it reminded me of all the great die-cuts that I have. I decided to layer them for the background of my card. I also loved the pops of yellow in the picture, so I used yellow ribbon and embellishments."
