Same Products...Four Designers


We're at it again!  The last time that we did this, it was really great to see how four designers used the same products to make a layout.  It just shows that anything goes in scrapbooking and we all see products in a different way.  Your styles may be different but great products work for everyone!  By looking at these layouts, I bet you never would have guessed that the designers used the same products. I know that I wouldn't have!

Today Irene, Gabrielle, Kathleen and Carin have taken the same set of fabulous products and come up with these beautiful designs!

Here is a list of what they had to create with:

Ad Lib Hoopla
Ad Lib Scribbles
Ad Lib This n That
Ad Lib Hoopla
Ad Lib Cut Outs
Blast Off Buttons
Time Piece Chipboard
Gabrielle Trinkets
Vicki B. Wraps
Stripe Double Dot

True Beaute

Easter Treat Holders

Easter is almost here, so today we thought we would share with you some fun and easy ways to use your favorite Bo Bunny products to create sweet little treat holders for your family and friends.


Easter Treat Baskets

Designed by: Juliana Michaels

Supplies: Vicki B Floweret and Loverly Patterned Papers,
Double Dot Cardstock in Tutu,
Vicki B Combo Sticker,
Vicki B Petals,
and Vicki B Wrap

Designer Tip: Create the leaves for your flowers out of fabric.
For more information on how Juliana created this basket you may visit her blog.




Decorated Easter Eggs

Designed by: Janis Medina-Maghinay

Supplies: Blast Off Stripe and Stellar Patterned Paper,
Double Dot Cardstock in Dark Denim Dot;
Vicki B. Buh-Bye, Fabuloso, and Stripe Patterned Paper;
Blast Off and Vicki B. Combo Stickers and Chipboard Stickers, Vicki B. Jewels

Designer Notes: This is a super simple, made in minutes project - -
thanks to Bo Bunny's chipboards!!! My daughter wanted me to decorate
her and her brother's eggs so we altered them together.
Good thing she let me take pictures of them coz' when I returned them to her,
they're gone right away!!! They did give me back the paper decors though,
I will recycle and make cards out of them soon. LOL!!!




Easter Wishes

Designed by: Luzma Bruna

Supplies List: Double Dot Cardstock in Kiwi, Citrus, Coffee and Mint Dot;
Vicki B. Stripe, Buh-Bye, Vicki B., Bubbly, Florilicious and
Loverly Patterned Paper; Double Dot Bulk Ribbon, Vicki B. Brads




Easter Bunny Baskets

Designed by: Robbie Herring

Supplies: Double Dot Designs Coffee Stripe;
Double Dot Cardstock in Coffee Dot, Ocean Dot, Wasabi Dot,
Buttercup Dot, Citrus Dot, and Blush Dot;
Double Dot Ribbon in Concord, Kiwi and Butter Cup

Designer Tip: I made the woven pieces all at the same time.
I did the weaving on top of a 4 1/2 by 8 inch piece of cardstock.
I then cut them into 1 1/2 by 8 inch strips to make the baskets.
The weaving was done with 1/4 inch strips of the Coffee Striped paper.
Be sure to use enough tape underneath to hold all the strips in place when you cut.




Easter Bunny Carrots

Designed by: Patti Milazzo

Supplies: Ad Lib Improv, Pebbles and Wild Thing Patterned Papers;
Ad Lib Combo Stickers, Ad Lib Jewels,
Blast Off! Arcade Patterned Paper,
Double Dot Cardstock in Citrus Dot and Avocado Dot,
Double Dot Ribbon 3/8” in Kiwi

Patti used the sour cream container idea as my inspiration for these paper carrot containers.

Designer Tips:
-Carrots can be made to any size, I created mine a bit taller and
thinner to resemble carrots.
For the large carrots, I cut my paper to 5”w x 6”h and
for the smaller carrot, I cut it to 4”w x 5”h.
-I crimped the Double Dot Avocado Cardstock and
cut a fringe to create the green carrot tops.
-To hang the carrot containers, punch a hole near the bottom of the
green carrot top and insert the fold of the ribbon to
create a loop in the back, then tie a bow in the front.
