12 x 12 Layout "Angel" with Video Tutorial featuring Black Tie Affair with Denise

Hello BoBunny Fans!

It's Denise here today, to share a mixed media layout with you, using Black Tie Affair.  This layout was inspired and created in remembrance of our sweet and beloved dog, Blossom.  Gone too soon at 15 months old. I felt that this post would be a lovely tribute and lasting keepsake, showcasing two of my favorite photos of her.

I used the We R Flower Punch Board to get a base collection of petals, then fussy cut the flowers and leaves from the patterned paper, to add to this page.  Both techniques are so pretty and just add beautiful depth, texture and detail to the layers.

Below is a close-up of the punched flowers, as well as the laser cut chipboard pieces.  Next, I added some highlights with a white gel pen, some strategically placed droplets of watered down white gesso and a spritz of gold glimmer.  There is a full set of detailed visual step by steps in the video presented below.

I would love it if you had a look, and hopefully you can see the creative process and be inspired by it.






Thanks for spending a few minutes with us today. Hope to have you drop in again soon!

Have a fabulous day!

"Adore" - 12 x 12 Mixed Media Layout with Black Tie Affair and Emmy

Hello BoBunny Fans!

Emmy here today, sharing my newest project I created featuring BoBunny's Black Tie Affair collection and We R Mini Alphabet Punch.

For my background I layered a black pattern paper on top of  Double Dot Passion Fruit Damask Cardstock. Before adhering them together, I distressed the edges of the pattern paper. Using modeling paste and a Stickable Stencil, I created the white dimensional pattern. Then I sprinkled Gold mist on top. 

To decorate my page I used a lot of fussy cut elements, which I embellished with rhinestones and die cut doilies. 

I added also pre-cut embellishments from the Noteworthy pack matching this collection and stickers from the 12" sticker sheet. 

  

The letters for my title I punched from Double Dot Cardstock using the We R Mini Alphabet Punch. I inked the edges of the letters with a black ink pad and decorated them with rhinestones.  

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you found a daily dose of creativity and ideas!Have a wonderful day!

Unique Cards Made Simple and Easy featuring Black Tie Affair with Ayumi

Hello BoBunny Friends!!
  

Welcome back to the BoBunny Blog today!  It's Ayumi here for another post highlighting the Black Tie Affair Collection. This line is quickly becoming a staple for me.  It is especially a go-to when I make special cards for engagements, weddings or as you can see just a basic love theme.  I went for some easy and simple cards this time, specifically to illustrate just how striking black and white are paired together.  I showed the finished card and then a couple close ups of fun features that I will explain later in the post. 

Love Cards by Ayumi

Let me introduce a simple wedding card using, of course, Black Tie Affair and the We R Flower Punch Board.
This time I made flowers of XXS size (paper size is 1 3/4 x 6"). There are great instructions that come with the board itself, or you can just play around and see what sizes of flowers are your favorites! 

Punch the paper and attach fold lines.Fold the paper, kind of in a roundabout shape,so that the shape of a flower.

Attach glue and decorate with a brads.

Twist paper petals around the petal curler to mimic a natural,organic curve.

And, Voila! Flowers are finished! Super easy to use and even more fun to create multi layered flowers and even flower bouquets out of paper!  Aren't these elegant?

Thanks for stopping by and see you next time for more fun ideas, techniques and creative inspiration!.


Enjoy your happy day!

Elegant Wedding Card Ideas - with Black Tie Affair and Marilyn

Hello Everyone! It's Marilyn here to share with you two elegant clean and simple cards using the beautiful Black Tie Affair collection.

I

I started cutting three squares from different papers to create layers over a black card base. I adhered them with foam dots to create dimension between each layer.

I add the LOVE chipboard and cut three hearts from the combo sticker, I adhered them with foam dots. Next, I add some red gems for a little bit of sparkle.

My second card is simple and easy to create. I made the base with one of the Black Tie papers then I added a piece of black cardstock and made a dotted line with white gel pen on the edges.  I really love the end look of this trick. It looks like real stitching with the dark of the paper and the bright white of the pen.

I decided to use the Once Upon a Time big chipboard as the focal point of the card.

And, there you  go!  Two quick and easy cards, could be used for a wedding, anniversary, or just a kind thought and note to a friend.  Endless possibilities!


Thanks for stopping by....  Check the list of supplies below....

Until next time!!!

Chabby Chic Card Duo - Featuring Black Tie Affair with Ginny

Hello there, Friends, and a happy day to you all!  I'm here to share two cards that I created with the Black Tie Affair collection. If you're thinking I'm going classic black and white these cards might surprise you.  This collection works for shabby chic inspired projects too!

I've pulled out the whites and grays for these cards and layered them with sweet soft pink cardstock. This 6 x 6 card has loads of Noteworthy pieces and a large die cut doily.

 

To make the ribbon slide I used the Alphabet Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers and created the tops of two A's but on opposite ends of a long strip. I simply wound the ribbon through then wrapped the tails and secured them on the back.  A few Double Dot Jewels are the perfect finishing touch!

This card is A2 sized and has more of the cut aparts and a smaller die cut doily. For this ribbon slide I punched the ends like in the previous slide...but left the ends squared off. I also trimmed a bit to make it narrower so as to fit the scale better.

The scrap from the cut apart makes an excellent tag when given a coordinating metal eyelet and twine. Instead of my usual poofy bow I created a smaller ribbon embellishment with the trim  and secured it in the center with a Double Dot Brad.

I'm having loads of fun creating unique embellishments with my Alphabet Punch Board. Of  course it's great for letters too!

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

Black Tie Affair - 12 x 12 Layout with Mixed Media, BoBunny Essentials and We R Mini ABC Punch Board

Hello BoBunny Fans!

Emmy here today sharing a layout I created using BoBunny's Black Tie Affair collection and We R Mini Alphabet Punch Board.  I'm absolutely in love with both products! Possibilities to create your own masterpiece are endless!

To create the background I used two different pattern papers from the Black Tie Affair collection. I ruffled and distressed their edges and adhered them together using Sticky Thumb Adhesive. Using a stickable stencil and texture paste I created the white dimensional pattern.

To decorate my page I used various die cut elements from pattern paper and from Double Dot cardstock, which I adhered with Sticky Thumb Dimensional Adhesive Foam Dots.

I used also pre-cut elements from the Noteworthy pack matching the collection and stickers from the 12" sticker sheet.

For my title I used We R Mini Alphabet Punch Board and Double Dot cardstock. I decorated the letters with Double Dot Jewels.

Oversized Card and Tag Duo - Featuring Black Tie Affair and We R Mini ABC Punch with Denise

Hello Everyone!

It's Denise here today, to share a little love and a little Black Tie Affair. I created a card and a large tag with this beautiful, black and white collection. There is something that is just stunning with stark black and white, and just teeny spalshes of color.  For the first card, I picked the lighter shades from BTA.





Then for my next step, I created the card, using the super Mini ABC punch from We R. I then added some detail with fussy cut items and small die-cut blooms from BoBunny cardstock.

Here is the large tag, again, using fussy cut elements.

There are so many pretty elements that can be fussy cut from the patterened papers, that it is hard to know which one's to choose!

I used a BoBunny stencil and black crackle paste for the title.

For the large tag, I also chose one extra colour to give the tag some pop and here I chose a Cerise pink. The little details were added with BoBunny pearlescent and a white gel pen.

I will definitely use this card and tag as a combo and will also use black and white gift paper for the gift.  I just know that it will be elegant and beautiful!


Thanks so much for stopping by the BoBunny blog today and we really hope to see you back tomorrow.


Have a super day!

Denise x

Eat Birthday Cake! - Mini File Folder Folio Card featuring Black Tie Affair

Hello There Friends!

Happy Friday to you all : )  Today's project share is a fun birthday card/file folder min folio. I've used the new collection Black Tie Affair which is basically just 100% awesome! It manages to be graphic and classic and fresh and vintage all at the same time! And so very versatile because you can use it as it is or mix it up and add in your favorite splashes of color.  I picked Double Dot cardstock to use in conjunction with the black and white here.  The Blush Double Dot shade I picked really punches it up.

The inspiration for this project was the cheeky sentiment I created with the Alphabet Punch Board. It's taking over the front cover and I just love how it looks. I wound up creating two sets of the letters then layering the more solid pattern under the print to give the allusion of shadow. To further play up the 3D look I popped the letters up on Sticky Thumb double sided foam adhesives from American Crafts .  The cover also has quite a bit of pattern layering . To keep it from looking like a jumbled up mess I added a top layer of velum that I cut with scalloped scissors for added detail. There's a few die cut doilies tucked in there as well.  The last touch is a tag from the sticker sheet that's been finished off with a coordinating metal eyelet and bakers twine.  The smaller sentiments were created with my old school label maker...the kind you roll the wheel around and squeeze to smoosh the letters into the tape.  Not only does it look cool and retro but adds texture!

Here is a shot of the inside pages:

I created the cover with the Punch Board to look like a tabbed topped file folder. Inside is finished with the coordinating patterned papers. Pockets hold tags with room to include additional mementos...like maybe a gift card or ???? The blush cardstock between the layers keeps the patterns separate and it's used also for the smaller doily die cuts.

Here's the little tags pulled out. Those sweet little circles were on the patterned paper and were easy peasy to cut out using a circle die. Who doesn't like making their own embellishments? I love adding clips to minis because there are times when you want to include a picture or ticket or some small memento that you don't want to permanently adhere to the pages.

This last set of pages has two generously sized photo mats and a really nice area to write in a personal sentiment.


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