Now enjoy some card inspiration using BoBunny stamps!



Happy Halloween - Lisa Novogrodski


The Fright Delight Collection is truly THE perfect collection for Halloween cards! I cannot say enough about how effortlessly the papers, stickers, and chipboards work together to create  "Boo-tiful" cards for this scary season. I used the cute October 31st dimensional sticker as my inspiration.
I'm a big fan of mixing patterns and layering as much as I can to create texture and dimension. 


I think my most favorite stamps by BoBunny are these fabulous "Stained Textures" stamps. I used them with white chalk ink on the black background paper and love how it looks!  Tip: Don't use a block with your stamps. Just take the stamp and press it in your ink and then randomly stamp on your card.

Trick or Treat - Lisa Novogrodski


I was inspired by the little "Trick or Treat" chipboard in the purple and white. I wanted to carry out this purple theme throughout my card.  I created a little pocket envelope on the front and tucked in a tag.  You could add a little note to the tag or tuck a treat in the envelope and enclose the tag inside the card.


The "Stained Textures" stamps work so well with the Halloween theme. I love how the stamping on the orange background looks like webbing. I also used white chalk ink again against the darker background. Don't you just love that grungy cup stained ring the stamp makes?

Thank You card - Solange Marques


I love the colors of Autumn Song Collection and stamps in this collection are awesome too. I made a thank you card and added a bird of  The Avenues Collection. I used some acrylic paint on the background and emboss with one of the stamps.

You and Me Card - Solange Marques


I am in love with The Avenues Collection. I love its doors, birds and colors. To make that card I cut out a door and I stamped a brick wall around it. To highlight the curly stamp I used black embossed powder.

Best Wishes Card - mellpellmell


In my opinion Fright Delight Collection is suitable not only for the decoration of different stuff for Halloween... I made ​​two greeting cards. Rich and deep colors of Fright Delight Collection paper sheets makes it just the ideal background for the brightly flowers and white acrylic stamping! This is the first card.

Happy Birthday Card -  mellpellmell



The second card says in Russian "Happy Birthday" (I am reporting this for those who do not know Russian). As always on my cards you can find such "decorations" as a thread, ink splashes, acrylic masking...)))

Holiday Wishes - Lisa Nazario-Gregory

 I think that the Autumn Song Collection is one of my favorites, with its glorious colors of Autumn in crisp orange, red and greens. The card I created can be used throughout the holiday season. I die cut leaves from the pattern paper. It is perfect in getting the variegated look of real leaves. A little inking on the edges  gives the leaves dimension.


I stamped directly on the chipboard banner.


For the corners of the card. I used embossing ink and a fine embossing powder and heat embossed it creating a raised textured elegant effect.

Happiness Card - Lisa Nazario-Gregory


This card can be used for many occasions. I wanted to keep it simple, but a little bit grungy. The Stain Texture Stamps was perfect for achieving a little grunge. I used a couple of the stamps to outline the  lighter layer of the card. I layered the card and raised the layers with pop dots for dimension. I love the little stains on each individual heart.  I used the largest stamp in the collection for the background to the hand cut stamps.
