How To Alter Your Scrapbook Layout Background

Hello BoBunny fans!

Emmy here today sharing a brand new layout I've created using the amazing Family Heirlooms collection from BoBunny's newest release. This post comes with a short tutorial on how I am altering my background paper and what products I use in the process. I hope you will enjoy it!

How to alter your background paper:

Step 1: Using a sponge dauber cover the middle part of the patter paper with a see through layer of gesso to soften the color. Let it air dry.

Step 2: Mark the position of your picture on the background paper with a pencil. Using clear stamps and black ink create your design around it. Let it air dry. 

Step 3: Once the ink has dried, add a shimmering layer using glitter paste and a stickable stencil. Let it air dry. 

Once your are satisfied with your background paper, continue to arrange your design.

To decorate my page I used fussy cut images and pre-cut embellishments from the Noteworthy pack matching the collection.

I also added die-cut embellishments, stickers and chipboard stickers.

As a final touch I added rhinestones, shimmering brads and rhinestone flourishes.

I hope I managed to inspire you today!

Have a wonderful creative week!

Family Stories Layout with Family Heirlooms Emmy

Hello BoBunny fans!

Emmy here today sharing a brand new layout I've created using the amazing Family Heirlooms collection from BoBunny. For this layout I decided to use a picture of my grandfather. He was always there for me when I was growing up and I miss him every day.

For my background I used two pattern papers. I cut off 1 cm from each side of the bluish paper. Then using a stickable stencil and texture paste I created the white dimensional pattern. Once the paste has dried, I sprinkled glimmering mist on top. Then, using a clear stamp and brown ink, I stamped the 'fake' stitches in the corners. Finally, I ruffles the edges using a paper distresser and adhered the altered pattern paper on top of the dark brown one.

To create my design I used washi tape and tailor-made embellishments from the pattern papers.

I cut my title from one of the Trinkets pattern paper. I inked its edges with brown ink and then I adhered it to the background using mounting foam tape.

I also added chipboard stickers and layered chipboard stickers to my page.

As a final touch I added rhinestones and enamel dots.

I hope I managed to inspire you today!

Have a great week!

Fussy Cutting with Emmy

Hello BoBunny friends!

Emmy here today sharing a brand new layout with you! For today's project I decided to use the amazing Harmony collection from Bobunny's newest release.

To create my background I used a pattern papers from the Harmony collection. Using Texture paste and a Stickable Stencil I created the white dimensional layer on it. Once the paste dried I sprinkled Glimmer spray on top of it.

To create the panel under my picture, I used a light and a dark pink pattern papers. I cut different length stripes, distressed their edges and adhered them using mounting tape to the background as shown. I layered my picture on a slightly larger panel from pattern paper and adhered it on top of the pink stripes.

To decorate my page I used a lot of fussy cut blossoms, leaves and birds and pre-cut embellishments from the Noteworthy pack matching the collection.

I used BoBunny craft dies and Double Dot cardstock to die cut some more embellishments for my layout. I added also some of the wonderful stickers from the Sticker sheet. 

For my title I used a shimmering Thickers Alphabet matching the collection.

As a final touch I added colorful rhinestones and pearls.

I hope you enjoyed today's post! Come back soon for more inspirational projects from our design team!

Harmony: Layout by Emmy

Hello BoBunny fans!

Emmy here today with my first post for March featuring the amazing Harmony collection from BoBunny's newest release.

For my background I used a blueish pattern paper from the Harmony collection. I added the dimensional white layer using a Stickable Stencil and Texture paste.

Then I layered my picture on a slightly bigger panel from Double Dot cardstock and, using mounting foam tape, adhered it on top of a bluish pattern paper from the 6" Paper pad matching the collection. I adhered all the different layers in the middle of my background paper and added a die cut fancy edge at the top and at the bottom of my picture. 

I fussy cut the birds and the flowers from different 12" pattern papers and combined them with the pre cut images from the Noteworthy pack and the Stickers sheet. Using them I assembled the flower edges on both sides of my picture.

For my title I used letters from the Tickers Alphabet matching the Harmony collection. I decorated it with fussy cut paper dragonflies.

As a final touch I added rhinestones, pearls, shimmering brads and sparkling flourishes.
