Handmade blooms & Bo Bunny's Country Garden

Have I said how much I love Bo Bunny's Country Garden Collection?  Heehee, enough said :)   ....Today's DT assignment was 'Flowers & Flourishes'  So I thought I would fill the page with blooms.  I made the blooms from patterned paper from the Country Garden collection and some Bo Bunny flourish cardstock (Passion Fruit color).  I used the Spellbinders Rose Creations die cuts to cut the flower petals.  The method I used is the tutorial I shared HERE.  Here are some close-ups of this page.... 

The small leaves were punched with the Martha Stewart leaf punch, the flourishes are from Quickutz (I used my Revolution die cutting machine to cut all the pieces).  The Bo Bunny Country Garden collection should be coming out soon....take my word for it, you'll love this one!  Thanks for stopping in and for all your kind comments, I love to hear from you all (I will try and catch up with everyones blogs soon.....I've just been going through a bit of a medical issue at the moment, found out yesterday I'm severely aneamic, explains why I've been so exhausted of late! But now that I know, I can get to fixing it!!  Catch up with you all soon! xx)

**NEW** Bo Bunny! Country Garden & New Dusty Attic!~LOVE!!

So I had a chance to crack open the NEW Country Garden collection from Bo Bunny!!  Have you seen this collection?  Ohhhh! so beautiful!!  I was in scrappers heaven working with this new collection!  My youngest daughter came in the room to show me the music video for 'Brighter Than the Sun' by Colby Caillat when I was scrapping.  I ended up using the song title and some of the lyrics on the page, between the happy music and the lovely papers I thoroughly enjoyed this scrapping session!  I combined some new Dusty Attic pieces with this collection ...I thought the grasses and vines worked well with the BB papers.  I used the Grass Cluster #1, the Swirl Vine #2 and one of the Ornate frames for this one. 

The focus this week for the Bo Bunny post was to use paper ruffles.  For my page I punched a strip of plain white patterned paper and lightly misted it with water.  Then I crinkled/creased the plain edge to create the ruffle (see below)
Here is the ruffle tucked behind my circle design on my paper....it works just as well on wavey or bracket designs too!  Below are close-ups of the cool new Dusty Attic pieces as well (I simply painted them white and added a touch of green tint with chalk inks.... 



Do you have a favourite song you've been meaning to scrap?  I'd love to hear what they are!  I'm always looking for song titles and lyrics to use on my scrap pages, there is something about scrapping with music that makes me feel  like my page says so much more, do you know what I mean? :)
