This may seem like a layout that took over an hour to create, but it wasn't! I was asked to make some pages using the newest collections for Bo Bunny's booth at CHA but I was under a tight time crunch....my solution?
~ First I started with a page design that I had created before and
just followed the design for this page. For me what takes the longest is all the
fussing about, moving pieces, deciding on what to put where....so using the a
design that I created before really helps in cutting the time factor down.~ Bo Bunny makes loads of amazing and beautiful coordinating embellishments that makes dressing up a page fast and easy! Chipboard, blooms, lace...all made to match your layout, just peel and stick!
~ and finally I gather together all the materials I'll need to make up my page, inks, paints, sewing machine, punches....and have them ready to go. So I don't spend a lot of time while I'm making my page look for stuff. Following a preset design helps make it easy to know what things you will need as well. Here are some close-up pics.....
Extra Tip: Another time saving thing I like to do is when I'm just sitting and
watching TV I'll take some Clover Green Double Dot paper and just punch a whole
lotta leaf designs from it and keep them in a little baggie ready to go for when
I'm making up a bloom cluster for a page)
