 A great way to use up many pieces of journaling tags is to use them for layering.

 

 Another easy way of layering will be inking and stamping.

So Cozy

Gabrielle Pollacco

  A photo I took of my youngest daughter when we were at Niagara Falls a couple weeks back, Meg's was chilled so she took my sweater/scarf and started hamming up with it.

 For one of my clusters I thought I would create a little pocket to slip my photo into. I just cut a slit into the paper and stitched near the edge, glued a bit of piping (fabric) along the edge and added some brads to create a fun pocket element.

 I love using the new Bo Bunny blooms and dimensional Cardstock stickers in groupings/clusters.
Designer Tip: A great way to differentiate two cluster/areas on a page is to paint/drybrush or stamp behind the photo area, it draws the eye into the photo.

Hand Stitching & More

Does anyone remember this song...

♪ ♫ I'm Mr. Snow Miser, I'm Mr. Snow,

I'm Mr. Icicle, I'm Mr. 10 below... ♫ ♪

Mr. Snow Miser full on came to visit Utah this morning... bbbbbbrrrrr

Today the girls all hand stitched on their layouts...

Hand stitching is such a fun way to add a little character to your layout.

Memories are Stitched With Love

Lynn Shokoples

 Designer Tip: Use a stencil to draw on your pattern, then use a push pin to poke holes in

the paper which makes it easy to stitch. Once I started, I had so much fun I added some 

stitched leaves to the flowers on the patterned paper.

 Designer Tip: Play with straight stitches and zig zags to add more patterns to your borders.

"I feel very blessed to be able to showcase some of my work here on the Bo Bunny blog. I still pinch myself every once in a while as I feel really lucky to be able to work and design with all the fabulous products manufactured by Bo Bunny. 

Bo Bunny products have always been my favorite usually the first to go in the shopping basket!) There is a warmth and a vibrancy about the designs which appeals to me. Not only that, but the people I have met, work with, design with are all a fabulous bunch of people and it is truly a privilege to be a part of the Bo Bunny "family"
