We have had spring fever like crazy around here.  We caught a glimpse of it last week when we had a really beautiful rain.  We are definitely tired of snow but a good spring rain always makes everything smell so much better and seems to green things up.  Today I created a layout for your spring fever. “April Showers bring May Flowers.”
April Showers SVGI hope you enjoy this layout and register for all the excellent blog hop prizes.  I am giving away this layout in SVG format.  Enter your email address below to have this layout emailed to you.  (The tulips are part of the barnyard collection and are not included in the free layout file)

A Pumpkin Good Freebie

First project out of the new craft room.  I receive a Parent Connection e-letter.  It had this idea to print and cut pumpkins, fold them in half, glue them together and viola you and the kids have a craft.  Well is was cute but white, on white on white.  White and Halloween I couldn’t make the connection so this is what I came up with instead.

I cut 8 of the large pumpkins.  I folded them in half an pasted them together with craft adhesive spray.  I did a little chalking on the edges.  That wasn’t enough so I went back to Inkscape and added the vine and a smaller pumpkin.  The kitty comes from an upcoming featured cut that is available in the Adams Acres Store.

What a Beautiful Card Dawn

Dawn gets super creative with the Tree found in the Woodland Bunny Collection. The Woodland Bunny Collection is available in MTC, SCAL and SVG formats.

This is how Dawn put this project together.

“I received my July email from Ali Edwards and my One Little Word project.  A-HA! – It is not the prompt of the month, but I knew I wanted to use my word “Climb” and I wanted to use that great tree svg.  So, putting all of that together – I translated the word climb into about 15 different languages, and printed it on cardstock. (although you cant really see that after I cut the Tree out of that paper, but I know it is there).  I dyed a white on white piece of fabric with alcohol inks, sewed on the black burlap, added the tree I cut and then covered in glossy accents, after I mildly inked some edges.  I added the butterfly (home-made beaded antennae), climb letter stickers in a Tim Holtz bracket, some matching alcohol ink dyed lace ribbon, OH! and the flowers I made from ribbon and medium sticky dots (pretty easy – twist and stick).”

New Bo Bunny Abbey Road Collection Layouts

Shanna Vineyard put together a beautiful page using one of the Abbey Road Collection by Bo Bunny.  I love the tranquil blue and green tones of the embellishment stickers and the paper. The Abbey Road collection includes rub-ons, flowers, buttons, stickers, paper and brads to help you develop a very cohesive page without thinking about it.

Bo Bunny has a new collection called Abbey Road.  It is absolutely beautiful full of blues and greens and dark brown tones.  Collections like these make putting together really cohesive pages very easy.  This collection includes several papers, card stock stickers, brads, flowers, rub-ons and buttons.  You can use this collection to create beautiful scrapbook pages, decorate your home or create gorgeous cards.  Below are a few of the pieces found in the Bo Bunny Abbey Road Collection.
