A Gift of Time with BoBunny

Happy Friday to you!

I have a fun project to share with you that I had on the BoBunny blog earlier this week. The assignment was a teacher's gift.

When given the assignment for a teacher gift, I reflected back on last year and what seemed to be asked for most often in Kindergarten.

It was always time, either volunteer time for special days or to assist in classroom activities. My idea is to give your commitment of time to the teacher so they know they have a little help. The coupon book was created using a Silhouette cut file.

I decided to create nine pages and label them each for the school months of the year, September through May. There are six pages of coupons for one hour of time. The teacher can redeem them by sending them back in the kids traveling folder to let me know when they would like help.

There are three months where I thought it would be fun to include a small gift card. It would be easy to do ones in small denominations for Coffee, Lunch or an Ice Cream or Department Store. At this time I do not yet know our teacher assignments, so I've kept the book gender neutral. The Somewhere in Time collection was really perfect for my project!

August Sketch Inspiration with UmWowStudio

Hi there!  I was recently up on the UmWowStudio blog and wanted to share my project here too. Did you know that UmWowStudio has monthly sketches?

Here is my take on the new fabulous August sketch.

Here's what I did with it:

I loved the design and stayed pretty close to it. You'll see a variety of UmWowStudio products on my page. One of my favorites, the Doilies was my starting point, along with the Damask Mask.  I base coated the doily in a pretty cream paint and then touched some Inka Gold for a bit of shimmer.

The sentiment flair was perfect to accent my photo here. On our recent vacation I was able to snap a few sweet candid shots. A love speech bubble was inked with a rainbow ink pad, then rubbed with some more Inka Gold to keep the bit of shimmer.

A few more layers were added with the Soar Tag which I stamped and embossed, then wasn't so happy with the look, so I painted over it. This gave the perfect texture and I left it. A Layered Arrow was coated with a Pearl Pen in Opal.

I had such a wonderful time working with the sketch and our products, I really hope you'll find some time and play along. For all of the details on our August Sketch, check out this post.

Vintage Card with Cheery Lynn Designs

Happy Monday crafty peeps!  It's my day to host the blog over at Cheery Lynn Designs today.

My card today features several of our stacker dies and a bit of a soft vintage design. I started by selecting my French Flair shape, and layered a Dutch Scalloped Square at an angle behind it. This really changed the shape and I loved the look of it together.

"Thinking Of You"

My next layer is the French Flair Doily Stacker which is cut in a soft gray plain card stock and adhered with foam squares. I added a touch of cheesecloth on top to give a bit of texture.

I finished the card with my Scalloped Coved Rectangle and Coved Rectangle layers featuring the sweet vintage image. These are attached with foam dots as well. The Add a Flourish is tucked in and tacked down with a bit of Glossy Accents. Sentiment Frame #2 is used to showcase the sentiment.

Somewhere In Time with BoBunny

Just Breathe. Ever tell yourself that? Sometimes we need to stop and remind ourselves that at different points in our lives.

I am so thrilled to get to work with this beautiful new collection "Somewhere In Time".  The patterns and designs are so lovely! I thought it would be fun to use the line with this photo from our wedding. 

The "Just Breathe" banner is an element of the Baby Bump Noteworthy collection and it worked perfectly for my getting ready wedding page. There are many fussy cut elements here as well as some stamping. I used the Autumn Song musical notes on my sentiment block and our new Stitches doily stamp and stitch stamps.



This was such a fun page to work on! I love how all of our collections really work together and make coordinating a page so much fun. On this page you see papers from Somewhere In Time and embellishments from Baby Bump, Autumn Song, Modern Miss, Pincushion and Zip-A-Dee Doodle.

Cards with Somewhere In Time!

Happy Tuesday to you! 

 

I'm very excited to be up on the BoBunny Blog today to share a few card creations featuring the lovely "Somewhere In Time" collection.

"Congratulations"

My first card is a step card which I used some of our Combo Stickers, Kraft Wood Clocks and a Brad plus some additional shapes that I cut using my die cutting machine.

To create some interest, I've layered one of our 4" Doilies which was misted in a variety of colors to blend with the collection.

Next I added a few die cuts and one of our Stickers topped with a Kraft Wood Clock which was misted and the outer border colored with my Copic marker. 

A bit of cheesecloth and seam binding ribbon and touches of Jewels finished the card.

"Hi"

I decided to go a little bit feminine with this card, playing on the dress form design a bit and adding a few frilly die cut elements. Quite a number of these pieces are cut from the Keepsake paper including the banners, tag top, layered frame and dress form.

I love that you can create so many cute elements with a few of our papers from this amazing collection! The dress forms, balloons and gear elements are wonderful as is the color scheme.
