Live The Life You Imagined Card by Agnieszka Bellaidea

My son turned 12 a couple of weeks ago, so I wanted to make a special card for him. He  loves watching movies, reading books and he has some favorites games. He has a wonderful imagination, so my wish for him was to keep it that imagination alive. To create my card, I used a mix of 3 different BoBunny collections and added one of my favorite flowers.

BoBunny Supplies:

Patterned Papers: The Avenues Trellis , Treasures / The Avenues, Fright Delight Ghouls / Fright Delight, Head Over Heels Prince Charming / Head Over The Heels

Blossoms: Denim Blue Zinnia

In Love Card by Agnieszka Bellaidea

This card will very soon, be given to the man of my life! Two of the collections I used are themed for Christmas and Halloween however, they went perfectly with the love theme of my card. 

I used some pink on this card for my husband, but I think it's still a good card for him. Maybe next year I will make him a card with a golf theme!?

Mix and Match Scrapbook Pages 2

We continue our Mix and Match Week here on the BoBunny blog with more scrapbook pages. Today, Denise and Maryia really show you how to mix it up. Denise used five different collections and Maryia used nine. Now that is mixing and matching for sure!

Beauty by Denise van Deventer

I used a combination of Zip-A-Dee-Doodle, Pincushion, Head Over Heals,Woodland Winter and Fright Delight collections.Can you believe that?! I made sure that I incorporated black, as I needed to ground my photo on the various patterned papers.  The black also adds to the slightly grungy, yet shabby feel.

I made some flowers with die-cuts and instead of using leaves, I used some wool, which was rather thready. It added a different texture to the page, which I loved.

Since a large percentage of this layout was created with Pincushion, I thought it would be a nice touch to include some sewing, so I sewed my buttons to the page.

Happy Day by Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)

I always love to mix and match different products and materials in my projects. I never worry about whether materials are from the same collection. It's much more interesting to me, to find my own combination and to mix it up!

As always, my LO includes a lot of paint, ink and doodling.

Mix and Match Scrapbook Pages

BoBunny always creates amazing collections and we all love how perfectly everything coordinates! It makes creating so quick and easy. However, did you know that many of their collections are perfect for mixing with other collections? Our theme these week on the blog is Mix and Match and we are going to show you how easy this is to do. Today, Tracee and Rhonda have each created a scrapbook pages with a mix of different BoBunny collections. The number of different collections that they have each mixed and matched together is seriously amazing! Can you name them all?

Everyday Heroes by Tracee Provis

I knew I wanted to create a masculine layout, so I pulled elements from five different collections. I used Pincushion, Woodland Winter, Zip Dee Doodle, Elf Magic and Kraft to show off this great photo of the Everyday Heroes, aka the men in my life, my Husband, my Son and my Son in-law.

I usually lean towards a light colour or white background, but this Handmade paper from the Pincushion collection has a slightly distressed look and made a great darker background that makes the other papers pop off the page.
In the Kraft collection Gift Bags you also get a sheet of 6 patterned circles I added one along the banner to create a journaling spot.

I used a variety of stickers from different collections. The days of the week are from the Christmas collection, Elf Magic and the others from Zip Dee Doodle. I used a black ink pad and dabbed over the chipboard alphabet from the Avenues collection, this left a small amount of the original colour to make a contrasting edge to the letters. The Kraft Gift Bag has a fun moustache design and I also used it to create a pocket for some hidden journaling.

Cupcake Love by Rhonda Van Ginkel

I used some Double Dot and pattern papers from The Avenues, Woodland Winter and Zip-A-Dee Doodle collections. The fun photos are from a cupcake date that I took our oldest on and as you can see, he more than enjoyed his special treat!

The chipboard arrows are from Woodland Winter, the alpha and love sticker is Zip-A-Dee Doodle.

The chipboard clouds are from Zip-A-Dee Doodle, the bird from The Avenues.  I used quite a bit of Noteworthy items and stickers here. The large Woodland Winter bracket sticker on the left is tucked under some Noteworthy and fussy cut Zip-A-Dee Doodle Collage paper.

I used a glassine bag to hold my ticket from Woodland Winter and also cut one of my little clouds from it.  You'll notice a flag layer of vellum under my flags to the right of the photo strip. I just love how all of the BoBunny collections coordinate so beautifully!!!

All I Want for Christmas by Romy Veul

This Christmas will be the first Christmas that I celebrate together with my boyfriend, Jeroen. I thought it would be a nice idea to dedicate a Christmas lay-out to that. That's why I took out the gorgeous Elf Magic collection and scrapped a photo of Jeroen with it. I used lots of chipboard present embellishments to make the lay-out fit my title "All I want for Christmas..."

My background consists of several punched layers of paper and a doily. I then adhered a chipboard Christmas tree on the left side of my lay-out and adhered some chipboard presents on top of it. The banner below my photo is from the 12x12 chipboard sheet. I found that it gave my lay-out a very festive look.

On the right side of the banner I also made a tiny cluster with three chipboard presents and a holly berry. I finished off my lay-out by adding some die-cut stars from the Noteworthy package.

Sweet by Bernii Miller

I created this layout using some of my favourite pictures of my daughter Abigail from a couple of years ago. Abigail used to have this obsession with lining objects up top to tail. So it was no surprise when I walked into the living room to hear Abigail announce "Ta-Da" as she showed me how she had lined up all the Christmas presents. It is this story that I wanted to record, so using the Gold & Silver collection was perfect, because it matched the colours of my home decor. 

I dipped into my Blossom collection and found it so easy to pull together this layout. Once you start with one BoBunny Blossom it becomes very hard to stop, as they are all so stunning! To add interest to the burlap I grabbed some measuring tape ribbon I had in my stash and folded them over each other to create some dimension. I love this effect.

Burlap Tip: The easiest way I found to attach the burlap was to sew it directly into place with my sewing machine. If you do not have access to a sewing machine, hand stitching would work great too.

Trinkets: Gold & Silver

Elf Magic Christmas Ornaments and Layout

Happy Saturday BoBunny fans! Are you busy with your last minute Christmas and Holiday activities? Today we are sharing some more Christmas inspiration from our Design Team. We have an assortment of amazing Christmas Ornaments and a scrapbook layout all made with the Elf Magic collection.

Santa's Village Christmas Ornaments by Tracee Provis

What better way to decorate for Christmas than something you have created yourself. I love to create scenes and was really excited to see the cute elements that adorn the Elf Magic collection. I recycled some old tuna fish cans that made great bases for my ornaments, and finished them off with some paper bows and ribbon.

 

To start I sprayed my tin with some white auto paint, glittered one of the small doilies and cut out the middle to make a pretty edge for my tins. I fussy cut lots of different elements from the papers and used hot glue to adhere in the tin. A little tip - I needed to put some hot glue that would show at the front of my elements, to stop it from being a plain old blob I just sprinkled a little glitter on it before it dried and it looks like sparkly snow.

I cut some circles to fit the tin and then adhered most of the elements to it before gluing inside. I used some double dot cardstock to create the Elf factory building, how cute is the little one peeking out from behind the roof ? I cut some tiny bows to stick on the presents and then cut a bigger version that is attached to the top of the tin with the ribbon.

 

The set wouldn't be complete without the stockings being hung, again I used double dot to create the bed frame and the window behind has acetate to give the impression of looking out at Santa's sleigh flying through the sky.

Naughty or Nice Christmas Ornament by Agnieszka Bellaidea

The idea about making decorations for Christmas tree is something we all remember from kindergarten. This time I wanted to show you how fun can it be to do it in a very simple way. Cute elements from Elf Magic are great for using on old frames, wooden stars or even old decorations, just to give them a lift. For my first project I used a plastic frame and this cute Elf. The second one was created with paper and cut out elements from Elf Magic.

Fa La La La La Christmas Ornament by Agnieszka Bellaidea

If you would like to see how I created this simple ornament and maybe let your children to have fun with your papers when you relax with a new book by the Christmas tree here I have couple photos from the process.

Cut out 6 -10 shapes from any Bo Bunny paper.

Fold all parts in half.

Glue all parts together, I used a tape for it.

Your ornament is ready for decorations. Using stickers, chipboards or cut images from Elf Magic papers like I did makes the process nice and easy. Go for it! Or relax and read your book, I am on my way to created new page with another stunning Winter collection from Bo Bunny.

Golden Gate by Ulrika Wandler

I have made a couple of layouts with this gorgeous collection with a Christmas theme, but I thought it would be fun to show that you can actually use these versatile papers photos other than just Christmas photos. Here I used a picture of that really fantastic bridge in San Francisco!

I have used some cute flowers and I put brads in the centre. I outlined the stars and the alphabet stickers to make them pop.
