Harmony: Layout with Angela

Hello BoBunny friends!
It's Angela here sharing a scrapbook page featuring the new charming Harmony collection. It's a fresh and tender collection with mainly pastels and lots of birds and flowers, perfect for spring projects for the coming sunny days.

I started my layout choosing the color combo and I went for this trio: slate blue, light ocher and salmon. They match beautifully together. I love these shades also because they aren't perfectly solid, they have a soft watercolor effect. So, I cut 3 circles, one from each color, using the We R Memory Keepers Circle Spin & Trim. I cut a 5" circle in blu, a 4" circle in ocher and a 3" circle in salmon. I also cut my photo in a circle shape of 3" and 1/2. Then, I arranged the circles so that they slightly overlap each other and I put the photo in the center.

Before adhering the circles, I stitched each one with my sewing machine. Then, I prepped the background. I used a smooth heavy white cardstock and I marked the position of the different circles on it. I colored and splattered the cardstock using Distress Inks that matched my circles, it means shaded lilac, scattered straw and spun sugar. To add more interest, I also stamped a few circles with the Painted Circles stamp set by BoBunny using the same Distress Inks colors.

When everything was dry, I sticked in place the circles and started embellishing the page.
My idea was to keep everything inside the circles creating a kind of color clusters. So, I placed the title on the blue circles, because it was the biggest.

According to my initial idea, I added yellow flowers on the yellow circles, pink flower on the salmon circle and so on. 

For the journaling, I added a brief description of the photo by hand, but before doing it I drew a few lines for being sure to write straight.

Here is a close up of the clusters. As you can see, I used dimensional foam adhesive to have different height. In some places, like in the photo, I even used two pieces of foam tape, one on the other.

Last, I trimmed 1/4 of inc all around the page, I sewed all around and adhere it to a multicolor polka dots paper for framing the layout.

That's all for today my crafty friends. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you feel inspired by my layout and by the beautiful Harmony collection.

Love,
Angela

You're My Wild Flower Layout with Angela

Hello crafty friends!

It's Angela here today to show you a layout featuring the new Jungle Life collection by BoBunny which is my preferred collection ever, at least in this moment ;P 

The layout is all dedicated to my hubby because he's living a hard time and I would like to let him know he has all my love and support.

Let's talk about how I made it. First, I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut the heart on white cardstock.
Then, I removed each triangle and replaced them with the animal patterned paper from the collection.
The cut-file shape is very simple and I used it just to save time but if you like the design and you don't have a cutting machine, no worry, you can make the heart cutting a few squares and dividing each square into two triangles.

About the title of the layout, I used the coordinated Alpha chipboards by American Crafts. I don't know if you can guess it, but the title should be read You're My Wild Flower, where the world flower is not written, but it's the flower itself. I know, I'm making it complicated ahahah!

Anyway, I made this big dimensional flower using the We R Memory Keepers Flower Punch Board and lots of layers of different stuff like buttons, crochet flowers, doilies, laser cut chipboard, die-cuts and fussy cut leaves.

As you can see from the photo below, the layout is pretty thick and I admit that, this is a thing that I love pretty much.

That's all for today my dear scrappy friends, I hope you enjoyed my project and to have inspired you to create a wild layout!

Love,
Angela

Oh BOY! Simple Scrapbooking for Boys featuring Stay Awhile - with Elena

Hello BoBunny Friends,

Welcome to the BoBounny blog today! It's me, Elena here with you today to share this 12 x 12 simple scrapbooking layout I designed and created with the new Stay Awhile collection.

My favorite thing about the Stay Awhile collection is the clean lines, tone on tone patterns and of course the deep, cozy colors and homey sentiments. The perfect all-occaision line, it really makes it simple to tell a story in my layout.  I especially love creating BOY themed layouts with this line!

To show how simple and easy it is to create my page, I  haven't used ANY embellishments.  I trimmed and pieced together a few paper layers - mixing patterns, dots and stripes, then cut out a few houses from the paper to give this the look of a countryside village.

I started with tearing (purposely kind of uneven and rough) a long strip of green paper and then mixed mostly the cut out cards for my layers.  Then, I trimmed little bits of other accents from the papers too.

I like the deep blue, plum, burnt orange and brown colors this collection has and it's quite easy to create a simple but dynamic look with your project.

To keep my layout simple I decided against adding a full title.  I added only the tab sticker to add the date later.  Wanted to be certain the focus is is on the one photo of this sweet little boy.

For the finishing touches, I added some sticker arrows for an extra splash of color and design!  These little elements are always just right!

Thanks for stopping by today for this "Simple Scrapbooking" idea featuring Stay Awhile!  Be sure to come and visit us again for more fun ideas and paper crafting inspiration!
