Prima Flowers & A Giveaway!

Happy Thursday! It's getting so close to Halloween - are you ready? I'm not!

Today we have a little inspiration for you from Designer Sandi Clarkson and yours truly! We've been playing with some Prima flowers and having way too much fun with them! Let's take a look:

Birthday Cards by Sandi Clarkson

Sandi used the gorgeous Bo Bunny Olivia collection and Prima Faience Bradstreet and Emily Flowers to create these three amazing cards! Take a closer look:


Sandi used Olivia papers and Chocolate Ruffle Wrap on this card. Love her placement of the flowers!


Sandi used the Olivia Cut-Outs for a super-quick card! Love that idea!


Simple and elegant!

Sandi wasn't done with those flowers! She created a gorgeous corsage that can be worn on the lapel of a jacket or blouse with some of the Prima Faience Flowers, an old brooch from her jewelry box, a flower she handmade out of ribbon and some lace! Take a look:

Corsage by Sandi Clarkson

Beautiful! What a great way to save some money and have the satisfaction of having made it yourself!

I played with some of the Prima Faience - Cecilia Flowers. I thought they looked nice for fall and paired them with Basic Grey Pyrus in a fun little home decor project. Take a look:

Happy Autumn Pumpkin by GenCraft (Floren)





I found a large wooden Jack-O-Lantern in my stash that I've had stored for quite some time! I traced around it for the pumpkin shape onto chipboard and my Pyrus paper. I used some Pyrus Chipstickers, Prima Bling and Prima Faience - Cecilia to decorate my fall pumpkin! Fun!

More Bo Bunny Olivia!

It's Tuesday! We're almost caught up on the shipping! Thanks so much for your patience!

While we were away, Designer Andra Hoffman was at play! She shared three fantastic layouts last week using the Bo Bunny Olivia collection, but she was far from done! Today she has even more great projects for us using this beautiful collection! Take a look:

Friends Mini Album by Andra Hoffman











Andra used just about all of the papers from the Bo Bunny Olivia collection for this fun album! I love all the little touches she added to this: The distressing, the buttons and of course the flowers! Such gorgeous colors and a fantastic keepsake! Great work, Andra!

Andra wasn't done! She has two more fantastic layouts for us!

Best Friends by Andra Hoffman

Love this layout! Brown and pink is one of my favorite color combinations! Love that butterfly at the top with the Prima Crystals! Gorgeous!

Precious by Andra Hoffman

I love how Andra used strips of different Bo Bunny Olivia papers under her photo. I adore all the bling on her chipboard title! So fun!

Stay-tuned for more design team inspiration!

Bo Bunny Olivia Card Kit & A Giveaway!

Happy Thursday and Friday! Woo-hoo! It's a long weekend for us!

As you all know, I just love to make cards! I make them for every and any occasion! I normally like to come up with my own designs, but sometimes you just need a really quick card! Know what I mean? Fortunately, Bo Bunny is helping us out with pre-made Card Kits from three of their fantastic new releases: Cambridge, Olivia and Noel.

These card kits are wonderful! They have everything you need to create 8 really quick cards: Pre-scored die-cut cards, chipboard elements, rub-ons, easy-to-follow instructions and envelopes! There are also lots of extra rub-ons in case you want to change the greeting or use some paper and make your own cards!

I put together some of the cards from the Olivia Card Kit. Take a look:



Aren't these great? They took no time at all to put together and they are super-cute just the way they are! If you do have extra time and don't need the cards immediately, why not have some fun with these by adding some of your own personal touches?!


You could add a button and some ribbon, or...


You can add in a few pearls, or...


Create a glazed effect with a pen, or...


Bling it up with some Stickles!




The possibilities are endless! At only $14.49 (our price) these kits are a terrific value and lots of fun to play with!

So, are you ready for your chance to try one of these kits out? Leave a comment below and let us know if you create cards and if so, tell us about your favorite holiday or occasion to make cards! You have until 11:59pm Sunday (9/26) night to leave a comment. We will have a random drawing and announce the winner first thing Monday morning! The winner will receive a Bo Bunny Cambridge Card Kit! Good luck!!!

Happy Weekend!

Beautiful Soul by Sandi Clarkson

This is a photo of Sandi when she was just a little girl! Sandi used Bo Bunny Olivia as the main background of her layout. She added in Olivia Stripe as a photo mat and used the Cutouts for her journaling. She also used a MS Punch, Webster's Pages Bloomers and Prima Flowers from her stash. Simply gorgeous!
