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.

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.....

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. 

Well I hope this tutorial gave you an idea on how next time you might tackle in adhering your alphabet stickers to your project.

Magnificent Metallic Binders!

Happy Monday friends! With my love of all things gold and polka-dot, it's a no-brainer that I am in LOVE with this new metallic Misc Me binder from BoBunny.

Quail Cove Metallic Binder by Keri Babbitt

The new metallic binder and envelope collection has gorgeous metallic embossing, and elegant new details like canvas binding, a nameplate on the spine, and gilded corner brackets on the cover. Yum!  I decked my binder cover out with new foil rubons, film stickers, chipboard, and Pearlescent-masked butterflies.

Since this binder documents our new home renovation adventure, the envelopes are the perfect place for before-and-after lists, photos, and even ephemera like pieces of the old-fashioned wallpaper and a "vintage" pokemon card the kids found in the stairwell.

The next new product I am over-the-moon about is the new Misc Me pocket squares.  The variety pack comes with three different sizes of squares, and they are double-sided and adorable for slipping right into the new page protectors.  Easy and so cute!

Finally, be still my heart, BoBunny now offers gorgeous, intricate dies - just look at the detail below on the fuchsia butterflies! Love at first sight.

Paired with the gold foil rubons, they add such delicate dimension and texture to my project.  I cannot wait to continue creating with all the new products from BoBunny - oh, the possibilities!
