Every Day Life Layouts Round 2

We are just loving this every day life theme! It is so fun to learn something new about the design team. Enjoy these fun layouts from Maria, Kaori, and Juliana! Could you create a page about the same things as any of these ladies?!


Everyday Routine by Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)



Ahaha, my everyday life! My everyday life - is daily routine, even though it sounds very boring.
And every day my face looks that way - I do try to smile, but my eyes are closing themselves because I terribly want to sleep.


Fuss and a huge amount of work in progress, the cries and noise, the constant haste mail and e-mails, the Internet and the usual household chores - that's what my everyday life is!

Coffee Layout by Kaori Fujimoto


I love coffee. I drink it every day.
I did not like it very much when I was a girl. But I was a veterinary medical student, studying for the national examination, I started drinking coffee to shake off my drowsiness. Now, coffee has become indispensable to my life.


I added  a little blue ink and white gesso to give a fresh feeling.

Cut some Balloons from "Balloons" paper and to add a three-dimensional effect, I adhered them using double sided foam tape.

Running Scrapbook Page by Juliana Michaels

Running Scrapbook Page by Juliana Michaels featuring BoBunny Modern Missa


As you can see from my journaling, I started running this past May. It has become a part of my weekly routine, as I run 3 times a week to keep in shape. The regular exercise has done a world of good for me in more ways than one and I plan to continue doing it.

I took all of these photos using my iPhone and I have been posting them on Instagram to keep track of my running routine. I thought it would be fun to select some of these photos and create a layout to help record my running and why I started. I selected one photo from each month since I started running, so these represent May through August.

The color of my shoes inspired me to use the Modern Miss collection for this layout. I embellished it with a combination of chipboard, Noteworthy, stickers and brads from the collection. I also included some of the new Kraft Wood Shapes to continue the theme of photographing and recording my running.

August Mood Board Cards

Hey card making friends! Today is the day you have been waiting for, the August mood board inspiration in card form.

If you are feeling inspired by the August mood board, be sure to post your creations on the BoBunny Facebook page! #BBAugustMoodBoard

BoBunny August Mood Board


Love card by Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)



This card about love. What is love? What is it? She quickly flies into our lives, just like a dragonfly - you do not have time to look back, and she's right in your heart! But it also is constant ... and it lasts as long as our clock is ticking - the heart ... This card about the fact that love is in our hearts always and every second!


BoBunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper:  Keepsake/Somewhere In Time, Endless Love/Head Over Heels, Periodical/Enchanted Garden 



Hello card by
 Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)
 

This card is very simple. I used stamps cut paper circles and vellum to reduce the level of "roughness" here to create the background. This card is made just to say hello.

Ah, yes! Here again, a lot of different colors of pens - I like these light hints of color!



BoBunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Dramatic/Modern Miss, Dot/PrimroseVintage Dot/Shadow 
Doilies: 6.5in Medium
Jewels: Happy Tails





Fairy Card by Evgenia Petzer


It's no secret that I prefer dimensional cards, one easy way to get this effect is to stick the papers (layers) only in their middle and to leave the sides loose, you can see below the detailed shot and the doily has this effect and it brings extra air to my project.




Bo Bunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Pixies, Enchanted Garden, Spellbound/Enchanted Garden
Jewels: Enchanted Garden

You Are Beautiful Card by Evgenia Petzer


What I absolutely love about the majority of BoBunny lines is that they have lots of papers for fussy cutting, it really provides you with so many options, you can create your own fairy tales with this line.

Somewhere in Time Layouts

Well, it's a rainy and gloomy day here at BoBunny headquarters...we won't let that get us down! Today we have some beautiful Somewhere In Time layout inspiration for any others who may find themselves scrapping this weekend.

Boy by Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)


I've made this LO for my friend with the her son's photo. I think the collection "Somewhere In Time" has very diverse opportunities for its application. I think all styles and all areas will look good with its use. But I chose minimalism. It seems to me that LO is a bit mysterious feelings.


Quite a few items, even less colors ... but LO completely finished!
 


BoBunny Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Evening Mist, Keepsake/Somewhere In Time
Jewels: Licorice
Stamp: Stitches







Steampunk by Lisa Novogrodski


Don't you all just adore the gorgeous "Somewhere In Time" collection! I love how all the designers have used it to suit their styles! Here you will find me showing off a gorgeous steampunk photo I got from Deviant Art. You can find the artists link on my blog. This photo is just perfection for these papers.

I used lots of gears cut from the Double Dot papers on my Cameo and added them in. The background is layered with mists, inking and lots of stamping! I especially LOVE the New Stitch Stamps! So fun!


I used the Kraft Wooden Butterflies, another favorite product of mine, and painted it then covered it in crackle medium.


I mixed in a ton of layers. I love to fussy cut and pick bits from the papers and tuck them in. I also like to use things in a different way so instead of using the balloons as balloons I just cut them up and tucked them in!



BoBunny Supplies:
Pattern Paper: Momento, Balloons/ Somewhere In Time
Cardstock: Double Dot Licorice Flourish, Almond Dot
Combo Stickers: Somewhere In Time
Noteworthy: Zip A Dee Doodle
12 x 12 Chipboard: Autumn Song, Head Over Heels

All Woman by Denise van Deventer


I created a double pager for this assignment and chose to create a page about this Hollywood icon - Marilyn Monroe. While researching some information about her for another assignment, I found these beautiful photo's of her and just loved them.  She was not a size 8 and had beautiful curves, definitely "All Woman" and she was not afraid to show her curves! So this page is about celebrating being a woman and loving who you are, whether you are a size 8 or not!!

 
I did a mixed media background with a stencil, gesso and paints and then added lots of stamping, fussy cut elements and some wood gears.


This collection really lends itself towards vintage, with it's earthy colours. The beautiful patterned papers also allow for lots of fussy cutting, so one does not need to use so many embelishments.


I found quite a number of Marilyn Monroe quotes that were absolutely fabulous and I used one here, which I really loved - "I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it".  My journaling says: I love that she was a full figured woman and was so very beautiful.  I love that she was all woman!"


I have been the biggest BoBunny stamp fan for ever and this is most certainly the case here too.  The stamps are so versatile and gorgeous and I just love the interest that they add!

These Are The Days by Tracee Provis


I bought this simple painted frame with the idea of altering it. When I was asked to create a project using Double Dot cardstock I decided that turning one of the circles into a lighthouse would make a pretty beach scene, to display some photo's of me and a friend at the ocean.

 
I cut some shapes on my cutting machine and embossed them with clear embossing powder, which gives the Double Dot Cardstock an extra sheen. The shell is in 2 pieces and by embossing the top piece it darkens to give it enough of a contrast to make it look a little more realistic.


One of the many reasons I love Double Dot Cardstock is it's ability to be shaped, bent, stitched, misted you name it, you know you are going to get a beautiful result every time. I gave the fish a scaly look by stitching circles of vellum over the top of the Chiffon Dot Cardstock and stitched around the edges. The addition of the Frosting Jewels gave it a final delicate touch.


After I had cut all my shapes I layered them all up onto the base of the frame. All in all I used 14 different shades of Double Dot Cardstock and this doesn't even cover half of the range of colours they produce. I hope my friend likes her little gift.

Fun rockin’ peeps by Maria Potapovich (mellpellmell)

 
Many of those who love scrapbooking, are mothers, grandmothers or aunts for young and curious kids.

We always want to do something interesting and useful to them. But for some reason LOs and cards do not keep their interest!

I think kids can enjoy making these rockin’ peeps and then have fun playing with them!

In addition they are cute and they rock back and forth. They are also very useful
they help teach to distinguish the difference in amounts and you can learn to count with their help!
 
I want to tell you a secret, these chicks are perfect to decorate a baby's room or an Easter feast!
 

Bo Bunny Supplies:
Double Dot Cardstock: Grape, Flamingo/Dot
Blossoms: Plum Purple Pansy

Week 16 and Week17 by Evgenia Petzer


The moment I saw the Pinterest inspiration board, I knew it will perfectly fit Modern Miss colors, so I grabbed my Misc Me cards and started this spread.









Bo Bunny supplies:
Stickers: Cardostock Sticker/Love Letters, Combo Sticker/Mama-razzi2
Brads: Modern Miss
Washi tape: Modern Miss
Misc Me: Modern Miss Journal Pack
Misc Me: Page Protector Variety Pack






I continue to fill my cookbook with recipes. Summer is coming and will be a lot of berries soon - so it's time for the "sweet" menu!

Of course, the color palette of these pages is taken from the Pinterest inspiration board. And it seems to me, the theme of cakes and jam is perfect too!

 
To create my own cookbook based Misc Me is very convenient. I just picked up the paper for the background (lower layers visible in the photographs as well - the previous pages), cut out recipes (which I've tried and I want to leave) and inserted it all in the pocket! A couple of minutes and you're done!

One background I made from two pieces of paper - blue and yellow-red - just glue them together and connected them to the top with the washi.


Small details like fluttering  birds and flags help add a good mood while cooking!
