BUNNY HOP - BUNNY ACCORDION MINI ALBUM | with Kathy

I'm excited to be kicking off a month of Bunny Hop inspiration!  Doodlebug's Easter collections are always a favorite, and ADORABLE, and Bunny Hop does not disappoint.  I combined the collection with a couple of the coordinating SVG Files to create this fun Easter-themed mini.  Take a peek...

I started with the Bunny Hop Bunny Boy and the Bunny Hop Fancy Egg SVG files which can be found in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop.  I used them to create the base of my album using chipboard, textured cardstock and papers from the collection.  I used the chipboard to give it sturdiness, and so that it would stand up for display.  I played with the Egg file in my Silhouette to create a shaker for my album cover.  I filled the egg sections with the new lily white and bunnies and chicks shakers.  My title is from the Chit Chat Pack.  I just love the overalls on that Bunny!


Since the album stands on it's own, I wanted the back to look as cute as the front for display.  I added the overalls on the bunny back, and I just couldn't resist a little pom-pom bunny tail!  To keep my album closed when standing, I added a ribbon tie that closes with some Velcro Dots.

The album is a simple accordion style for the pages.  I copied egg shapes in Silhouette, overlapped them slightly and welded them together.  I cut them from the coordinating textured cardstock pack.  All that was left was to decorate the pages!


I started by covering each "page" with papers from the 6x6 Pad using a stitched egg shaped die from my stash.  I then added photo spots (rectangle & stitched dies) and decorated them using all the fun goodies from the collection... This & That Stickers, Odds & Ends, Icon Stickers, Shaped Sprinkles, Chit Chats and Bits & Pieces.   I love an accordion album because you can use both sides of the pages.  Here are some close-ups of the first "side" of the pages.  


I made a couple of pockets by cutting another egg, cutting it in half and gluing around the edges to form the pocket.  This made a perfect spot to hold a tag from the Bits & Pieces for journaling. The tag toppers were done using ribbon from my stash and my tiny-attacher stapler.


Here is the other side of the album pages...




I'm so happy with how this turned out... it's always great when things turn out like you envisioned!  I put together a quick video showing the album in motion, you can see it on my YouTube Channel here.
