Fa-La-La Mini Album with Elena

Hello BoBunny Friends,  Elena is here today.

Christmas season is so near. It's never too early to start the preparations. Actually I like creating not only cards during this busy time but it's a pleasure to review some old pictures taken past seasons.

I like creating mini albums each year with BoBunny Christmas collection. This year I had fun working with Fa-La-La collection.

I love the teal and emerald colors in this collection.

There are many details to fussy cut also. The gingerbread house, twigs, Santa - so many to choose from!

I  am sure the any photos will look great on these pages, especially family Christmas photos and traditions!

However I decided I would like to use black and white photos and then added some lovely glittered cardstock accents.

I added some die cuts, I like adding them to my projects for a bit of extra flair and depth.

Then, I foam mounted some of my embellishments, to pop from the page.

Look at the fine detail, the adorable designs and how well the colors blend together for this festive Christmas mini album.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Penelope Mixed Media Layout - with Solange

Hi Everyone, it's Solange Marques here to show more a project using the beautiful Penelope collection.

I've created a layout using this collection.

I love the colors and flowers from this collection. I've added a lot of flowers on my layout to frame the photo:

I've splashed some gesso on the background to create a fallout effect.



And I've added a lot of jewels:

This is a page idea that is quite simple to create, but in the end it is a very dynamic look.

Come back tomorrow for more fun ideas!

Penelope and an Altered Art Frame with Katherine

Hi Everyone,

Katherine here with a fun project using one of the new chipboard frames from BoBunny and lots of papers from the Penelope collection along with a couple fun mixed media techniques.

I took the square chipboard frame which comes in pieces and then coated it with a layer of Eggplant Pentart Creamy Acrylic.  Once that was dry, I added Crackle Medium in a few places around the frame.  I then mixed my own "blue" using white, dark blue, jade and a bit of silver too, adding a coat to further distress the frame.  I then went around with some of the silver metallic wax paste, some greenish silver metallic paint mixed with a little bit of matching creamy acrylic paint!

Then I added papers to back of my frame which will hold a 6" by 4" photo, slotted my frame together and proceeded to decorate it with the Penelope papers.

In the Noteworthy sheet (Abbey) from this collection there are loads of beautiful blue peonies, I cut these out and snipped the petals right into the centre, then bent the leaves up and inked the edges, adding a pearl to the centre, for extra depth and texture.

Here you can see some of the layers of paint and the chocolate brown coat through the crackles.

The silver metallic wax paste is the perfect medium to cover some of the laser cut butterflies, and you can bend the wings up and they will hold their shape.  The wax also works beautifully on the wood veneers too.

I created little clusters of the flowers,  layering them up

Thanks for stopping by today!
