Serendipity and Mixed Media Mania! with Elena O.



  Hello, it's Elena here today and I am excited to share with you my tags I've  made.

Feathers Tags by Elena Olinevich using BoBunny Serendipity Collection

I mixed Serendipity Noteworthy Die cuts and made some fussy cutting, but before that I started with my background. This time I played with the new Stencil Pastes from Pentart and the new stencils

The new stencils are really great and allow you to add more dimension. I added two colors at once.  They blend together beautifully..

I also made some paper layers and added the color with the acrylic paints from Pentart

It was fun to create the texture with the metallic paints and the pastes

I especially liked the 3D powder and balls, that I mixed with silver and gold paints for a uniqiue looking textured feature.

The birds and the flowers are so cute to add to any spring or summer projects

  To add more shimmer and glow to my cards, I used the new Glamour metallic paint in Gold.  This is unlike any paint I've ever used before. it is highly pigmented, but brushes on SHEER so you can see through to the paper underneath. It is super cool.

Quick and Easy Party Decor with Serendipity and Stencil Pastes with Shizuka


Hello, BoBunny Friends! It's Shizuka here.
Today I will share the Party Rosetta I made with beautiful BoBunny Serendipity collection and Pentart Stencil Paste.
These rosettesare fun to make and  can be used at various parties.  Don't you think it will be more fun if you make it from your favorite paper?
Rosetta of the paper I made this time is very easy, so please try making it.  The end result looks really nice!






First cut the paper of your choice to 1 3/8 x 12 and prepare a couple strips, depending on how many rosettes you'd like to make. And I will add folds like the image above. 


Next, prepare two types of paper of your choice. Pull out the two sheets with a BoBunny new craft die "Darling Doily Die". You cut the center part of one of the dolly along the circle.



Paste the folded paper according to the doily paper not cut.
Pull the outside of the cut doily and paste it according to the paper cut into the circle.
I will repeat these two.
Cut the edges of your favorite paper cut to 1 in width and connect it to the bottom of Rosetta.
This time I decorated using BoBunny Fancy Tags Dies.
Finally decorate your favorite decoration in the center of the circle is complete.


It is nice to simply insert your initials or names in the center of the circle.  You can also do a salutation such as Happy Birthday or Good Luck!


I think that you can decorate the layered chip board and jewel and finish it gorgeously.
I decorate this rosette with Pentart stencil paste and Fancy Flourishes Stencils.





I am glad if my project is helpful ♪

Thank you!!

Shizuka

Weekend Adventures and Cards, Cards, Cards! with Kathi


Hello Fellow Crafters,

Thanks for joining me for Paper Crafting Saturday today. I have made four cards using the paper line Weekend Adventure by BoBunny.



Four Fun Cards


Card 1 -

 The base card is using the coordinating Double Dot cardstock paper, Avocado Dot.  The next layer I used Weekend Adventures. The third layer is a dark green paper that was embossed using a tree die I had,  with the trees then lightly distressed with fine sandpaper.   Then the new craft die Bear Necessities was used to cut out the bears. The bears where layered on top of tan and brown bears.  The bears were distressed on the edges with chalking ink. The sign was created out of light brown paper then it was embossed using a wood grain embossing folder then distress with chalking ink. Then sentiment was stamped on white card stock then punched out and placed on top of the sign using pop dots. The small fish where cut out of WA picnic then distressed with brown chalking ink. Placed on the card with a brad. The small lake peaking out on the lower left  was created with blue card stock and Caribbean Glitter paste. Jute was used on the lower part of the card for the finishing touch.


Card 2-

I use Weekend Adventures "Blooms" as the bottom card base that measures 6 X 43/4" topped with a dark green card that has been embossed with a chicken wire embossing folder.   The dark green measures 5 3/4  X  4 1/4.  Weekend Adventure  Picnic was used with the new card craft die "Congratulations" was used to die cut the sentiment.


Card 3 -

I used Weekend Adventures Fly Away.  This is a 5 1/2" X 5 1/2 card. The base is a soft blue paper. layered with 5 1/4 X 5 1/4 panel, using two strips from the Weekend Adventures Bear Hug paper. The top one was fussy cut and placed at the top of the paper and the second one placed at the bottom. I used the carousel and two butterflies from the Weekend Adventures layered chipboard. The card was finished with an oval sentiment distressed with distress ink then adorned with silver confetti paste.


Card 4 -

Is a 5 1/2 X 5 1/2 yellow base card. Then layered with Weekend Adventures Swingset paper with a third layer being a soft blue. Both layers are distressed with a reddish chalking ink. A kite was created with weekend adventures papers Stripe and Road Trip. The kite tail is just some generic bakers twine.  The sentiment was stamped with archival ink with distressed edges.layered on the Stripe paper.  To finish the card, a layered chipboard banner and sentiment from the Weekend Adventures Good Vibes paper.
