Design Team Inspiration with Heidi: This week's showcased selection is the exciting Block Party collection from Bo Bunny.
This month I got to work with Bo Bunny Block Party, I have to admit that these are really not the type of papers I like to scrap with and find it extremely hard to scrap with. But I do love a challenge every now and then, so this is what I came up with for this range.
BROTHERS
On this page I have used a variety of the papers from this collection, Stripe as the background and pieces of Good Times and circles cut out from the Jamboree paper to make my loop feature on the page. The brackets and alphas from the combo stickers helped to complete the page.

AND OVER WE GO...
As soon as I saw this range I straight away feel in love with the lined side of the Shindig paper, so naturally I had to use it for the base of one of my layouts.I went a little crazy this time with the combo stickers for this page, I used lots but had heaps of fun using them. To make them pop out from the rest of the page a little bit more I simply went around them roughly with a black pen and straight away they stood out more. I have the photo step by step technique I have used on this page in the technique section of the forum for you to have a go for yourselves.

268 STEPS
For my last page I have used Celebrations for the background paper and pieces of Dots and Picnic with I have fancied up a little bit more with a border punch. The flower is just one that has been in my stash for ages.

Happy Scrapping!
These great pages from Heidi show just how diverse this collection is. Check out the Techniques and Tips section in the forum for Heidi's tips on scrapping a series of action shots.
Enjoy some great savings on Bo Bunny products this week.
Have a Scrappy Good Weekend.
