Can I be honest? I've never been a big BoBunny fan. When I heard it was in the April Paper Posies kit, I wasn't very excited. (Hopefully, no BoBunny rep is reading this. ha! I like the looks of the products, just have a hard time using it). But I LOVE Bella Blvd so I was excited to see it was in there as well.
So to challenge myself when the kit arrived, I made myself use the BoBunny papers first. And guess what--they were perfect for these photos :)
I mainly used the Bella Blvd. papers as accent patterns. And I love the BoBunny chipboard pieces.
I added a doily, cut in half, this layout.
(Both of these layouts are from sketches by
Creative Scrappers, Kristine Davidson. Her sketches are right up my linear-style alley).
The gems and flowers that are in the kit weren't available in time for the design team packages. But that is ok with me--I used several flowers from my stash. Plastic, felt, paper . . . loved using them.
The Bella Blvd. sentiment stickers were great for a card and I thought these two birds on the BoBunny paper would be good to use with the sentiment.
And, because I was in a challenging mood, I went for the whole shebang and worked with the altered project in the kit. Originally, it says A Tisket A Tasket inside of the frame. I covered it with pattern paper, then layered the welcome letter stickers on top of another sticker that I knew I wouldn't use the saying for.
To make the ribbon banner at the bottom, I simply snipped a few 1 inch strips of ribbon. Then I layered them on a piece of double-sided tape (fronts to the tape), and adhered it to the back of the frame.

You did a great job on these layouts. I like how you used the Bo Bunny supplies...even if they aren't your faves you did a great job.
I too have a really hard time using Bo Bunny (the same as with most of Basic Grey)! You did a great job on your layouts--am looking forward to getting my kit in the mail.
