Carousel Christmas MIxed Media Layout-with Denise

Hello BoBunny Fans

It's Denise here today, with a mixed media layout, using the Christmas Carousel collection.

I kept the background fairly simple here.  To start, I just used some Mandala stencils with some Gesso to add to the large doily die cut.  I then did some watercolour effects with distress ink. I also added some star stamping, but faded it out a bit as I got closer to the edge of the paper.

I fussy cut quite a few elements and especially thought that the reindeer would be great to use, since the kids were sitting with a reindeer/moose in the photo.

The little white flowers I handmade.  These were flower die-cuts that I cut from white cardstock and layered together and then shaped for added depth and dimension.

This photo was taken 5 years ago at Christmas and I cannot believe how the kids have grown!

Thanks so much for stopping by the BoBunny blog today.  I hope that you found a little inspiration and perhaps the Christmas bug has bitten!!

We hope to see you back tomorrow.

Layout LOVE!!! featuring Penelope-with Elena


Hello, Elena here to share this layout I made using this new Penelope collection.

It's so very beautiful that I wanted to use every single sheet of paper at once from the collection pack!
However I started with the fussy cutting . I love these flowers really. They appear to have so much texture and depth!

  I chose the dark background for my layout, as I wanted all of those colorful flowers to really pop up on it.

 I also made some paper layering and added some paint splatters with the acrylic paints and the mist and a soft brush.

It was fun to use the photo of my kids, sitting on the top of hay bale and the magic blue August sky behind them.  I so enjoyed the mixing of these several shades of blue colors here.

This collection is filled with awesome autumn images, cute little foxes and warm fall colors. And here is what I came up with:





Here are some close ups from my layout:

For my background I used Double Dot Wine Vintage cardstock and Foxes pattern paper. I added a white dimensional layer using Stickable Stencil and Structure paste.






For the layers under my picture, I used the Ephemera pack and different pattern papers.







I fussy cut some of the amazing fall images and used them to decorate my page.
