grandparents album

in honor of grandparents day, i decided to make my in-laws a mini album of them and jarron.


(see the inside...)



















the binder came with only six pages, which i didn't think was enough, so i added three more. refill chipboard pages for the bare naked binder are sold in packs of six. if you cut the paper efficiently, you will have more than enough for the additional three pages (i.e., six sides). i got the quotes i used on the pages from the scrapbook.com library, which i've found to be a very useful resource. i printed the quotes on white cardstock, trimmed them down, and then inked the edges. i attached them to the pages using foam adhesive to add dimension.


materials used:
bo-bunny "grandparents brag book" kit
bo-bunny 6x6 bare naked binder refills
bo-bunny flex ruler
bo-bunny sanding boards
ek success "folk heart" whale of a punch
clearsnap colorbox fluid chalk (azurite, tangerine, rouge, olive pastel)
ek success 3D dots (i.e., foam adhesive)
glue dots mini

bo bunny desk calendar

well, i finally finished working on my bo-bunny desk calendar. originally, i was planning to work on this during a class at my local scrapbook store, but i couldn't make it, so i decided to just purchase the kit and work on it at home during my free time. i don't understand how the class lasted only two hours long, when it took me the free time over a period of about a month to finish it! selecting the right pictures alone was already quite a challenge, as i wanted to find pictures that not only corresponded with the month, but also whose colors matched (somewhat) the papers for that month.

if you've seen this calendar before, you might have noticed that mine looks a little different... actually, i didn't like the paper that was designated for the front (i.e., "regatta mini stripe" which can be seen in the july spread), so i decided to use "blueberrie paisley" and "blueberrie dot" from bo-bunny's blueberrie pie collection.
