Linnie Blooms and fabulous Canvas Shapes

HI.. I am excited today to share my Linnie Blooms post with you. I have been working with

lots of canvas shapes this month and here is what I did with the Sun shape.

We also have been doing themes of the month.. outdoor fun. 

Well what better outdoor summer fun than eating popsicles with cousins.

I started by colouring the cavas sun with Ink pads.. I used yellow and orange mix.

I then used my Kreaxions circle cutter to make 2 rings from paper and a centre circle.

I inked the edges and glued them down.

In the close ups I'll tell you abit about what I did. Starting with the Jillibean placemat cut cardstock

I cut apart only 12 circle sections.. and filled alternating offset circles with a background circle to fill it.

The top corner cluster is finished off with twine... the windmill sticker is matted and foam popped.

I added sun ray paper strips.

Also hand cut some clouds from the papers.

The stickers are fabulous.. what a great mix... titles, strips, admit tickets and alpha of different shapes.

I used Kreaxion Punch #903 to punch a border.

I added fun mix of coloured brads in the bottom right.

Supply List:

Paper: Bo Bunny Lemonade Stand

Stickers: Bo Bunny Lemonade Stand

Canvas: Linnie Blooms Shapes

Ink: Tim Holtz Ranger

Punch: Kreaxions  #903

Circle Cutter: Kreaxions

Pen: Staedtler black ink

Other: twine, stitching, brads.

My American Connection with Kreaxions and Bo Bunny

hi.. today at Just Imagine Crafts I am sharing my Grandson's other half.. our American family and we love when they come and visit. Well when he was born it was a celebration of the first Grandson so Grandparenents and Uncle came from the stated to spend time with GS. This page will hold memories for him forever.

I used Bo Bunny Blast Off Collection and then made a banner which I random punched with Kreaxions #306 unside down so I could see where I was punching. I then cut a border piece with no inserts. The small star looking accents were also applied to the page.

On the right side I Punched the top and bottom corner with Kreaxions #906 with insert A and weaved the ribbon through and to the back to adhere it.

Here is some close ups to detail the punches used.

 Notice the fun pieces, the corner stitching.

This up close photo shows the weaved ribbon corner.

Thanks for stopping by.. I was glad to share with you today.. be sure to check daily to see what the DT has to share with you.

AND MY SPECIAL WORD IS: WAY

We are all using Red, White and Blue.. OK I cheated a bit

and it's slightly creamy but love the combo and look from this

Bo Bunny collection.

In the close ups you can see some of the clustered sections, 

the fun fussy cut banner, the metal accent, the rub on stars and the 

traced arrows.

The fussy cut banner is clustered here with the fabulous 

chipboard accent  and I added the twine wrapped around the photo.

In this section are some cute brads, some border cut to make a corner

and the lower star strip is cut of the accent paper sheet.

part of a double page where I am sharing photos of the 2 oldest Grand kids .. can you tell

they love to dress up for all occasions... and love a good time even when they were so 

small and too cute.

Lots of fun layers, accents, border and cute clusters  using flowers and buttons... along

with some journaling strips with a touch of twine.

Supply List:

Bo Bunny - Sophie, Twine, Buttons, Pearls, Bling, Brads

This detailed photo shows up close the cluster and the fun accents used to mix together to complete it.

This close up show another angle and some of the other accents up the right side 

to the top where there is a border.

Let's Capture our Memories and Sketchy Saturday

Over at Let's Capture our Memories we have regular Saturday sketches for you to play along with. Below is the one from Isabelle for today and above is my interpretation of it using Bo Bunny - Sophie. I used fun bright combo because it was perfect with fun easy going photos of the Grand Kids.(aren't they precious).

I added the fun floral border, floral cluster with some popped, twine and buttons

 inter mingled and a matted and layered title.

In this close up I added pearls and bling and popped up the cute tag that i added twine bow to.

You can also see the stitching on this section.

Would love for you to stop by and play along.

NSD & so many challenges to play along with

OMG I had a great NSD and didn't even realize how many challenges I played along with and I had so much fun.
I started with the double sports layouu.. and had fun with gesso and paint splatter.

On this page I punched a border, used washi tape and punchinella, added some brads and Love my SRM stickers and Title.

Here is the close ups.

This Challenge ask for us to use a different medium .... like pencil crayons, pens etc.. so I stenciled over plastic needlepoint circles using pencil crayons in the upper corner.... doodled or zentangled the Title letters and corners all with pencil crayons.

Close up of my Zentangle Title, fun corners and doodled butterfly. 

 

Some colour challenges wanted us to use the colours of the rainbow and some wanted the Triad combo of the colour wheel. It was really fun to think about colour and combos and so many options from the colour wheel.
The page above used Piggy Tales Collection and some fun chipboard accents.

I had this paper with GS's feet print for years now and have been waiting for the perfect paper Bo Bunny Blast Off Collection, colours

and additional photos to put with it and of course some cool guy accents and this is my only GS....

and we have 3 GD's.. which of course we love them all.

Really excited that we had a boy after 2 girls.

These cute space accents are so boy and were great for my all baby boy page.

This fun page wanted misting and the theme it's raining got me thinking about the photos of family in Florida when we ate out and it was raining.... and it was April of 2007 when these photos were take so Spring was in the air... and the SRM Stickers spring collection were perfect along with some stitches, a calendar and some doodles borders.. ( did I mention I love SRM stickers) and use them all the time now.
                              

I also love sunbursts and love adding them to my pages when it suits the theme.

Fun close ups of the Florida Vacation page. I popped up a few umbrellas for depth.

Sure hope you had a great NSD weekend and enjoyed creating like I did.

Thanks for stopping by.. I had great fun sharing with you.
