Snowfall Mini Album

How do you feel about mini albums?

I personally love them! They are a real treat to create and they really make one of the best kind of gifts for family and close friends! They can mark a special occasion or be made "just because" Bo Bunny has such a wonderful range of premade mini albums:both pre-printed and plain mini edgy albums, that are just waiting for that personal touch!

and then of course, you could create your mini-album "from scratch" using any Bo Bunny supplies and that is exactly what our designer has done today!


Agnieszka Piskorz has made this mini album as a special Christmas gift for a friend. She has used one of Bo Bunny's newest releases " Snowfall".

Her completed project is gorgeous!

Focus On....Buttons!

For me, buttons are one of those things that were really a big embellishment many years ago, then they sort of faded away....but recently I've seen a resurgence of these beautiful embellishments!  More and more I see them used on layouts and off the page projects!  And not just a scattered button here or there but loads of them!  Take for example this beautiful framed decor project done by our very talented design team member Patti!  She created this incredibly cute tree using Bo Bunny Buttons!...

Aren't these projects beautiful?!  And Bo Bunny has GORGEOUS buttons coordinated for each of their amazing paper collections, so you'll always have the right button embellishment to go with a project!

TIP:  Here is a little tip about using buttons on a project!  Take the time to either stitch it on the project/page or use some twine or string in the button holes.  It goes a long way to adding a beautiful 'finished' look to your project!  Believe me, I've tried both ways and always find I like the look a hundred times better when I take the time to add the twine or thread!

Have you tried using buttons on your projects recently?  Give it a go, you'll find your pages taking on a new and fun look to them! xo

Altered Items...Bo Bunny Style

Happy Tuesday everyone!  I hope your week is off to a good one. The holidays are fast approaching and Christmas will be here before we know it.  There are only 18 more days until Christmas!  Yikes!  So how about some quick and easy gift and gift wrapping ideas to help you along the way? Today the Bo Bunny designers have created several altered items to share with you ranging from using a simple paper bag to a clipboard.  They are all sure to inspire you in this time of gift making and sharing!

First up are some cute gift bags created by Jolanda.  The first two ideas were created using paper bags and the final one was created using the 6 x 6 Enchanted Paper Pad.

Next, Samantha took a plain clipboard and transformed it into a beautiful organizational tool. Once the clipboard was decorated, she added pieces of blank paper on which to jot down notes and lists of things as she prepares for the holiday season.
