'Full Rainbow' Misc Me!

For this month's Misc Me project, I worked with the new Butterflies Stickable Stencils, and the #ForeverYoung collection.  What a gorgeous combo!  With the butterfly stencil, I went "Full Rainbow" - take a look:

On the first page, I paired my six 3x4" photos with a middle strip of fun custom accents.

Here's a close-up of the over-the-top rainbow butterflies.  To create them, I first outlined all the stencil detail with a gold pen. Next, I quickly layered small amounts of Pearlescents and glitter paste, and then slid my large palette knife to the side, so the horizontal color layers would stay unmixed.  I couldn't be happier with the bright and bold look.



On the second page, I used a 12x12" paper to stencil butterflies across, before I cut it into four squares for the page protector pockets.

The gold glimmer spray adds a great shimmer to the entire page, and I love the subtle effect of the butterflies flying across the page.

Stickable Stencils! The best thing since....well...ever!

Stickable Stencils...have you tried them? You have got to if you haven't! I can't tell you how much fun they are...it's the kind of thing you need to try yourself! Today you can learn a little more about them with a tutorial!

You Are Here by Juliana Michaels

Hello BoBunny Fans! It's Juliana here with you today to share a quick and easy tutorial on how to use the fabulous new BoBunny Stickable Stencils with their new Double Dot Ink Pads. I really love that they are stickable. Once you position them, they won't move around as you apply your ink and when you are finished and ready to remove them, they will not damage your paper. It really makes stenciling super easy and fun!



In the video, I share with you how to create a background similar to the one that I used on my You Are Here scrapbook page. I love the nuances that are achieved by applying the Double Dot Ink to the paper. In some areas the ink is darker because I applied more ink and in other areas it is lighter. After completing the stenciled background design, I then began adding the rest of my design elements.

I used several pieces from the Souvenir Noteworthy as well as a couple of the Souvenir Layered Chipboard pieces. This collection is ideal for all of your vacation and travel layouts.

The orange and blue papers are from the new Double Dot Chevron collection. The Brilliant Blue Chevron perfectly matched the color of the ponchos that we wore as we tried to stay dry during our trip to Niagara Falls this past summer!

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and that it inspires you to get out your BoBunny Stencils and Ink Pads and start creating.
