"My SUN"-a mini book

Hi there, it's Angela here and I'm very proud to be with you for another year of fun and crafts!

My project today is a mini album dedicated to my son Francesco and I've chosen the BoBunny Down by the Sea collection because it has lots of blueish colors, perfect for a boy project.

It's basically a one sheet mini album, , yes just one sheet of paper and bunches of little bits and pieces to make up the embellishment on the album.

Particularly, I've taken the 12 x 12 Down by the Sea Cardstock, cut it into 3 stripes of 4 inches height and scored each stripe at 4 inches again.

I folded each stripe like an accordion and glued them back to back.

It was a pity to waist the inner parts of the cardstock, so I fussy cut all the mermaids and I ended up with a bunch of them. I didn't want to use them for a boy theme, but I will incorporate them in future projects for sure!

Then, I made the cover with a strip of acetate wrapped around the mini.

On the front I sewed a beautiful button and a gold elastic on the back. Inside the elastic I put a charm made of a couple of shells, something I found in my stash, that helps opening and closing the mini.

Many of the pages are embellished with BoBunny Gold Pearlescent around the wreaths. That gives a precious effect to the photo and lights up the project with a beautiful visual effect.

To give variety to the mini I filled in some of the pages with embellishments as you can see above.

I also included a 'shaker page' filled in with gold and aqua sequins.

I leave you with a short video where you can see a walk-through of the entire album.

If you like my project, please leave me a comment down below and thanks so much for stopping by.

Love,

Angela

Life in Color-"Documented" Greeting Cards-with Ginny

Hey there BoBunny Peeps! I was pretty happy to see Designers Choice as our theme for this week. I got out all the collections I've been wanting to play with and narrowed it down to Life in Color.  I really loved the natural images paired with the industrial paper patterns. Such a great combination!

I created greeting cards that would be great for any occasion....and for anyone I think.

This little fawn image just makes me all kinds of happy. So sweet. It was part of the cut apart sheet and had the gorgeous frame already on it!

There might be a limit to the amount of patterned paper layers you can add to a card...but I don't think I've ever reached it yet. Adding a border of chocolate brown helps to keep the patterns separate as well as spacers between the layers.

It seemed like a fine idea to give this little fawn a garden of flowers to be resting in. I've also included some vintagy trimmings and Double Dot Jewels.

OMGoodness this owl has the most beautiful eyes! We get lots of owls here as we live in the country and I love them so much!

These funky urban style papers are really cool and the warm rich colors are just perfect to match the blue frame on the cut apart.

BoBunny has such a great selection of flowers that are stylized.....they don't look like your average everyday flower..they have way more pizzaz. I added more of the Jewels to this card as well...but went for the blingy ones instead of the pearl ones in the first card.


Both of these cards measure 6 x 6 inches and the insides are finished with coordinating paper patterns.


Okay that's all for me. Wishing everyone a happy and productive day : ) G
