My Clark (the strong, silent type)

Bo Bunny's new range of CHA releases has something to please every scrapper. The Timepiece Collection is perfect for those boy/masculine pages with a titch of grunge. The colours are deep, dark and rich and offer a perfect compliment for those vintage photos or ones you've decided to change to black & white or sepia.

My son had to dress up as his favourite storybook character for school and he chose 'Jack' from the Magic Treehouse series. The only 'spare' glasses we had were some old 3D glasses from the last movie I saw - Avatar!! I popped the lenses out and he was left with the perfect specs!

So many awesome pieces of coordinating chipboard - I inked the key a little to give more of a worn look. Of course, my doilies are there as well. One is crocheted and the other is a simple paper one which I've painted and inked.

Love, love the vintage brads in this collection!! You can see that I've also done quite a bit of fussy cutting and that yes, swirls do kinda work on this 'boy' page afterall....

Thank you so much for stopping by today!! See you soon!

Same Product, 4 Designers

So our task today, over at the Bo Bunny Blog, was to use specific products from each of the new CHA collections, including paper, chipboard, stickers, buttons and ribbon, to create a layout.

You MUST head over to the Bo Bunny Blog, to see what the other DT gals have created from the same supply list. You will be amazed at how differently each of us have interpreted the challenge.

I tried to stay true to my shabby chic (with lots of distressing) style so I kept to the warmer brown tones with a mix of brown and aqua.

Some of these items were quite difficult for me to include on my project as I tend to be very 'matchy-match' with my colours and scheme. I ended up using some of the denim wrap but because it was such a punchy 'denim' colour, I painted and inked it to get the brown tone you see on my page.

I also like my pages very full of product (white space is VERY hard for me). Because we weren't suppose to 'add' extra product to our list, I built up the space with layers of paper, chipboard swirls and butterflies.

Lots of intricate fussy cutting. Yes, it takes lots of time, patience and a steady hand - but its definitely worth the results.
