Live the Life you IMAGINED

From the very first moment I saw the new collection The Avenues I knew we would spend some time together.


I love to work with this color combo and all papers, chipboards, trinkets, and stickers.  They are just a pleasure to work with. For me, as a collector of Bo Bunny papers, it was also very important that I can mix The Avenues with my other favorite collections like C'est La Vie, but if you still have any Country Garden or Prairie Chic papers you can create with them as well.


I believe you will enjoy The Avenues as much as I do!

It's a "PINSPIRATION" kinda of day!



Who doesn't love Pinterest? Seriously, you can use it for everything!

Sometimes when you are lacking some inspiration for a project, you need some "pinspiration".

What is "Pinspiration"??? 

Choose an image from Pinterest and create a project inspired by that image.

Need an example...Keep reading our designers will show you!


Gabrielle Pollacco "I'm a little sad about summer being over but then I really do LOVE the Fall. I wanted to really get into the 'Autumn' mood so I was browsing autumn photos on Pinterest. I just fell in love with this photo...."


Pinspiration by Gabrielle Pollacco



Bo Bunny's Autumn Song collection is just filled with the gorgeous colors in this photo, so of course I had to reach for this collection to scrap this photo of my oldest daughter that I took in front of a field of tiger lilies.


I just love the way Bo Bunny blooms come in so many beautiful colors and styles, made to compliment all their patterned papers!


Designer Tip: A fun way to frame your photo is to layer it with a larger photo. Here I used photo editing software to soften the edges of my photo. I then printed off the same photo in 2 sizes 4x6 and 5x7 and simply layered them. This creates an interesting frame for your main photo.

Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Harvest, Leaves / Autumn Song
Cardstock: Chocolate Vintage Dot
Layered Stickers: Autumn Song
Jewels: Autumn Song, Chocolate Flourish
Blossoms: Natural Earth / Dahlia, Wildberry /Zinnia, Wildberry, Clover / Bouquet, Harvest Orange, Buttercup, Wildberry / Bouquet
Trinkets: Autumn Song
Paper Doily: 4" Small

Pinspiration: 
Today was Amazing By Rhonda Van Ginkel


I loved that the colors in this honeymoon photo of my husband and I coordinated so nicely with the Pinterest color board. 


You'll see quite a few pieces of our Noteworthy items here. After I assembled my design I really wanted to accent the arch at the top so I pierced a border around it.


Designer Tip: Don't be afraid to use pieces from your Dimensional Stickers! On this page I have taken just the sentiment piece off of the sticker. The "You & Me" and the "Love" are downsized and worked so nicely on the page.
