Cold Family Fun Layout!

Karla here today, and I'm so excited we got skates over the weekend! My 4 and 8 year old girls are really excited to get out on the ice to try them out. I think this year will be a learning year - I haven't actually skated for quite a few years! But, I think it will be fun :) We have cold, snowy weather here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada for so many months it really seems like we have to make the best of it. There are a lot of local ice rinks as well as outdoor community rinks, so I'm hoping it will be a fun family activity!

And, since we are already planning winter activities, what better time to scrap some winter pics with this awesome BoBunny Whiteout paper collection?!! I love the glittery shimmer of these papers! I added some papers from my stash that were purples and blues to coordinate and pull in colors from the photos. I used some Distress Inks to sponge around the edges of my paper lightly and added some faux stitching with my black Smash Book pen - Love!


I cut the Family Fun tickets apart and paired them with the COLD letters that came in a coordinating BoBunny paper ephemera pack for my title.

An AC punch that I have made these awesome notebook punches at the top of my paper tag that I tucked behind my photo.

I used the sketch below as a base for my layout - I love using sketches and I find it stretches my imagination for combing patterned papers!

Here are two more recent layouts I've made with this collection - Fresh Powder and Impression! I hope you have a lovely, crafty week, and thanks for stopping by!

BoBunny Whiteout Layout!

Karla here today, and I was soooo excited to see the paper in this amazing 'Whiteout' BoBunny release! The package really just doesn't do it justice - when you look at and feel this paper though.... Oh my gosh! The glittery accents they added to it are gorgeous, and it's not all over, so it has a vintage, distressed feel. The paper is so nice and thick - I am loving it!

I immediately pulled out some older winter photos that I wanted to scrapbook and I knew the sketch from the Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine November Sketchy Challenge was going to work perfectly!

I used one of the journaling cards from the 12x12 cut apart sheet as my title - how perfect for this layout! and stamped some snowflakes around my page using different Distress Ink blues.


This cup was fussy cut from a sheet of mugs with awesome sayings on them and the tickets are on a 12x12 sheet too - I just cut the ones I wanted out.

I used a blue snowflake sticker from the sticker sheet that came in the paper pack on a tag cut from some of the paper and added another tag for my journaling.

Amie is in the 'silly face' phase, but I'm just going with it. I think you should scrapbook lots of photos whether they are professional quality or just those day to day real life ones!

Here's the sketch:
