JBS Holiday Projects

I am still at play with some of the add-on kit goodies from last month's JBS, plus I wanted to start doing a little holiday crafting - I know it's only September but December gets here so fast and I never have enough handmade cards ready so I am doing them earlier this year. The first one is a handglittered halloween card, using the vintage page from last month's JBS kit. I ran the sheet right through the printer and then added glass glitter by outlining the shadowed part of the font with Ranger Inkssentials Matte Accents - the fine tip applicator is perfect for detail work. The font I used is Shadowed Germanica.

Next, a few holiday cards using JBS Bingo cards. I love the versatility of Jenni's bingo cards. They're so easy to dress up and look great plain too!

The sunburst effect was done with a stencil from a past JBS kit and Jenni's new Ranger Dabber Inks in stick candy and cough syrup, plus her new Christmas themed chipboard buttons. The vintage holly leaves and jingle bells are from Papier Valise.

And finally, this sweet little minibook which I covered in burlap and lace trim.

JBS Gallery Update

Here are a few additional projects I created for the mid month gallery update at Jenni Bowlin Studio.  I loved this kit and creating with it was so easy!

This layout, called Sunday Afternoon was made with items in the add-on kit - the lace hambly rubons went on like a dream.

These cards were inspired by images on the Design Sponge blog:

 

 
   

 
  and finally, I created this little gingerbread man ornament with a papier mache ornament from Hobby Lobby, and an empty Maya Road chipboard tin for packaging. A complete supply list and instructions can be found in my gallery at JBS:

Blueberries

 
 Here's a quick share of a layout I did of Alekha for JBS September. I love the blueberries against the pistachio green polka dotty background of Jenni's new Family Tree Collection. And the rubons on the photo are from 7 Gypsies' new steampunk rubbings - they add such a fabulous touch to the photo. I will look back on this photo in the coming winter months and remember the warmth of summer and her sunkissed face. Here is a sweet watercolor postcard of a blueberry pie for your virtual enjoyment!

Halloween Projects

Here are a few halloween projects I did using the Jenni Bowlin September Project Kit. The kit is sold out now - Jenni's halloween project kits sell out every year. Hope you were able to snag one!
