33 days left - paper crafting with Bo Bunny

This post has been tricky!!  My computer isn't playing up, and the photo's have taken soooo long to load, so I apologise if I don't write as much as normal - but the computer is seriously in jeopardy of flying out the window :)

33 days.  Not long now!!!

Okay, so today I found a lovely old Bo Bunny pad.  The beauty of working with a pad of papers, are the corresponding colours.  They work together, which makes life easier to begin with

I cut a mat down to fit my square card, leaving a small white border. I picked my next piece of paper, which I trimmed down so it was the same height of the card

I found the centre point of the paper, by folding it and putting a tiny crease in place.  I then cut the paper from the top corner to the centre, and repeated the cut from the other corner

I creased the card to create a fold, and stuck it to the back of the card.  This is the side which the card opens on.  I remember this design from Hot of the Press, many moons ago - but I really like it, so thought I would have a go

This now folds over to the front of the card.  I rounded the point off.

I then added a piece of paper to the left of the card, making sure I didn't add adhesive to the right of this piece of paper, so I could tuck the flap in place

Next I die cut some flowers and began to shape them.  I folded the petals in half, and then layered the blue onto the yellow

The bottom layer I rolled the petals back, and glued this on the bottom 

I also cut a green layer, and just did a bit of faux stitching around the edge

I then cut one of the flowers down, as the petals are basically little hearts.  I did some faux stitching around the edge of the hearts.  I did the same with some blue hearts as well

Now, playing with positioning again.  I moved things round, brought different papers in - just to see what I liked.  You'll realise if you are a regular reader of my blog, that this is something I do a lot.  It's the best way of seeing what looks good.  And the photo's do help me make up my mind

I then decided to add some sentiments.  I found some old rub ons.  I love these.  I popped them onto the decorative paper, and then cut round them leaving a nice border

I added the Love topper onto the end of the flap.  I glued the left side down flat, and the right side, I used 3D foam to lift it a little

The little hearts were placed on the right side of the card, going down the flap

The flower was eventually placed in the top left hand corner.  I used the paper to create little bow tails, which I also faux stitched

When you open the flap there's a lovely space to pop a sentiment, so I placed another sentiment here - again using the rub ons, and then two of the little hearts

Finished.  A very easy paper and die cut card

For a change I decorated inside the card.  Just using a scrap of the paper, a couple of the hearts, and another rub on
