Something for a girl and for a boy

Hello.
Today I`d like to how you two projects. First is a very girly card, with lots of flowers and a pony.


To made this card I used Ephemera Premium paper pack, it`s delicate and lovely.



The second project is a gift set for a little man. I packed a book with a paper from The Vintage Attire premium collection. It`s a book about minerals, this paper is a perfect match, look at this gorgeous patterns.



I also made two pillow boxes with two different papers from  The Vintage Attire collection. 
This paper is heavy, a perfect material for boxes.

Vintage Pocket Letter with Irit





Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my Papericious new post.
After a whole Wedding month I was in this Steampunk trendy mood and decided to make a steampunk Pocket letter.
Pocket Letters are very trendy. You use this Baseball/Football cards plastic pockets and make 9 cards that are close to ATC size. Usually this is folded after it's done and you can mail it to the friend.
You also can add some small crafty supplies inside, but I didn't do it this time as this is not for shipping.
One great thing about making this project was to use the collection cover and to cut the cards, almost all of them, from the collection cover only.
Pretty much recycling thing to do.
So on the top you can see all 9 cards that all were made with the same stitched rectangle die as the background using one single sheet of Papericious Pretty Basics cardstock.
Then the top pieces were die cut with the smaller rectangle die mostly from The Vintage Attire cover and glued over the basic cards.
Each card was embellished with die cuts, chipboards, twine, sequins and yet they all should be flat as this " letter"  is going to be folded after all.
I made the central card as the letter title and this is all about a Celebration!
So two cards around are with dancing people die cuts  and they sure celebrate something.
Chipboard words were added over some cards and I added a lot of Papericious sequins on most of the cards using glaze.




An now the next three cards here:

Same paper collection, but a bit different in style. I added painted chipboards, gears die cuts (all die cuts are made from the same Papericious paper collection) and made die cut walls on some cards.


And here are a couple more of cards- colors are brighter and I die cut stars and added some Papericious twine over them.


I know that this kind of paper crafting is new to some of the blog readers.
But you can Google this Pocket Letter thing and to see that it's just fun to make them, to ship them and to get them.
Go for it! Step out of your comfort zone! Crafting can be different and still fun!

Door Hangers with Papericious Adhesive Buttons!


Hello! ^__^

I'm Halak and today I bring to you something that is super fun to make using the AMAZING new release at Papericious, the Adhesive Buttons!

I made.... Door Hangers!

It's my very first time and I was a tad nervous but boy.. I sure am glad to see the way they turned out!

Let's call the orange and black door hanger on the left, DH (Door Hanger) #1 and the one on the right, DH #2.

Here's how I made them :

DH #1

1. I took a sheet of paper from the lovely - Orange Fall paper stack by Papericious and covered my wood base.

2. After that, I decided I wanted to go with the black Adhesive Buttons, so I picked the Be You button pack to work with.

3. Once I decided where to place them, I put them aside and began stenciling to create the background I thought of with a couple of stencils.

Tip : For a texturized look, always opt for more than one stencil.

4. Then, I placed the buttons back on, this time after removing the protective backing and stuck them firmly to the project along with some butterflies and black sequins!

5. I also dug up some black and white stickers from my stash [the word Hope and the tiny design on the black circle are stickers] and added them to DH #1. (Have I told you I absolutely LOVE collecting stickers?)

That's it! Super easy! Check this cool close up pic out!

Now onto DH #2

This is how I did it :

1. The background for this is a lovely sheet from my favorite paper stack... yup, The Vintage Attire by Papericious.

I wanted to make this one for my sibling and she LOVES all things PARIS!
When I think of Paris, don't know why... Vintage Chic is what comes to my mind so that is what I decided to go with.
The Adhesive Buttons are from the Paris button pack.

2. When I looked closely at the buttons, I absolutely loved how the Eiffel Tower images on the buttons had pretty flowers so I inked up some flower stamps in red and added them randomly to the project.

Did you know, Papericious papers are archival safe, acid and lignin free and are FANTASTIC for stamping on and even color blending! ^__^

3. Once the flowers were stamped, I stamped a nice sentiment cos well... let's face it, all siblings are pretty awesome! (No matter how much we fight with them most of the times! LOL)

4. Again, just like how I did it for DH #1, similarly, I took a couple of stencils with my Papericious Blending Tool (Circle) and began stenciling to my heart's content.

5. I cut up some leaves from My Golden Garden embellishment sheet and stuck them to the project followed by the buttons. I also scattered a couple of tiny black leaves in the background.

6. Lastly, punched out a few green butterflies, glued them to the project and gave them a matching rhinestone center.

And it's done! Here's another close up.

I had so much fun working with these buttons.... and my sibling was absolutely stoked with the fact that I made one for her in her favorite theme.

She was seen showing it off around the house. Here's her door....

Till next time dear friends! ^__^ Have a lovely day! *HUGS*

Gift Envelope and a Trinket box with the newly launched paper packs

Hello Everyone,

I'm Manu here and I'm sure you must have had a look of how gorgeous the new release from Papericous is, and also the awesome projects made by the DT members using the 'My Golden Garden' and 'The Vintage Attire' collections. The Vintage Attire premium stack is perfect for a blend of mixed media and the My Golden Garden is a paradise for flower lovers like me.

I have made two projects to be showcased using the lovely new collection, and both are perfect for gifting! The first project is a Gift Envelope which will make a nice option to gift out Shagans and the other is a Trinket box which is something very pretty and perfect to keep small keepsakes or even it can be loaded to gift out chocolates or anything fancy !

Lets check out the first project.


I totally love the idea of gifting out the shagan's in pretty handmade envelopes and add a personal touch to your gifting( and I prefer giving out cash since the recipient can then get anything of choice)


I have used papers from both stacks of the new release and it's really very difficult to pick up which one is the best of both!! They both are totally yummy!!!



Here's a closeup of the envelopes.

Couple of them together.

Here's the Trinket box made from the 'My Golden Garden' collection. The calm and gorgeous flowers in this collection is something to die for!


Well, running the scissors thru these papers were seriously involved a lot of efforts!

This trinket box is perhaps the more gorgeous one I have made till date!



Another view of the trinklet box!!


I hope you all liked my creations as much as I loved making them.
Do let me know your feedback and the september release is definitely a must have in your collection. I'm surely gonna go ahead and get me a few packs!!!

Lets wait for the next months release which will soon be revealed and I'm sure that the new one will rock too!!!


Happy Crafting!
Manu

"Dream" Mixed Media canvas !!

Hello friends,
                    This is Hussena here and today I am sharing a Mixed Media Canvas I have made using our this month's release - "The Vintage Attire" and "The Golden Garden" collections. The Vintage Attire premium collection has some really beautiful prints, perfect for creating any backgrounds and all the Mixed Media fans would love the designs in this pack. I have used the Vintage Attire to create the base of my canvas design by doing paper tearing and layering these papers using Gel Medium, then I gessoed over it. Here's a look at it :


 Close up of the flowers paper pieced from The Golden Garden collection and the background paper using The Vintage Attire!

The word 'Dream' has been cut from the Circular Collage Sheet- Be You.

I've also used the leaves from the co-ordinating Embellishment sheet from the Golden Garden collection. This canvas also has some handmade flowers, chipboards, and textures using modelling paste, glass glitter and paints.

I hope you like my first attempt at a canvas using our Papericious new collections. Both of them are really gorgeous and I had lot of fun creating the canvas using these papers!!

Have a nice day everyone!

A Card, with a twist!

Hello and Good Morning! ^__^

I'm Halak and I'll be taking you through one really fun project AND a bonus project with step by step instructions!

Papericious has come up with two beautiful premium paper stacks Vintage Attire and My Golden Garden along with matching embellishment packs to co-ordinate with both the packs, sold separately.

For my project this is the GORGEOUS sheet that I used from Vintage Attire. (I'll have to admit here that I sobbed while cutting paper from this stack... it is my favorite out of all the Papericious stacks and I just wanted to hoard it till the end of time!)


Hmm... I know what you are thinking... It looks like a normal card.... what's the twist?!

BOOM! Check it out! (And you thought it's all rainbows and butterflies!)


The front tag is held by a brad that swivels to reveal a hidden space behind it with an additional message.

Ha ha.. so you see, sometimes a funny card is all you need to cheer someone up!

Let's get to the steps!

1. On white cardstock base I covered half side with yellow distress ink and the other half with Papericious Paper.
Tip : To make this card, get a good quality thick cardstock for base as it helps hold the layers of paper together better and avoids warping.

2. Added a bit of red ink with a water brush and some texture using stencils with brown and black distress inks.
(Not only does Papericious paper take inks really well, but it is also, Acid and Lignin free!)

3. Stamped a goofy looking dazed birdie and colored him up and adhered to project.
Tip : I used red, yellow and green for my project, so I colored the bird using the same color combo to make the card one cohesive piece.


Birdie, stamped and ready to color!

4. After this I fussy-cut some embellishments from Vintage Attire and My Golden Garden.
(These are AWESOME, they match and compliment the paper stacks beautifully and stamping on the labels to make your custom die-cuts is a breeze!)


Here are the embellies.... oh-soooo-pretty!

The sentiment I used is : "You're Super Old."

So, I stamped "You're Super" on the label and "Old." went on top of the birdie in the hidden space.

5. Adhered the embellishments onto the tag using fevicol and added a tiny black brad to affix the tag onto the project.


And that's it! Easy peasy!

Of course I used the Papericious Ink Blending Tool for all the stenciling and color blending that I did on the card. It's really awesome, available in circle / rectangle shape and if you haven't got it yet, well, what are you waiting for?! ^__^

BONUS project!

The embellishment sheets were so awesome and for the first time in my life, I didn't struggle with fussy cutting so I went ahead and made another project!


Here it is!

A thank you card.

I love stamping... and if it were up to me, I'd stamp even the walls of my house... but you know... sometimes we have such time constraints that getting out all craft supplies and making a card is practically impossible!

What to do?
Fear not! Papericious to the rescue!

What I have done is cut up the beautiful flowers and label from Vintage Attire, stamped sentiment on label, added a piece of pattern paper (from the lovely My Golden Garden paper stack), added a couple of sequins and sprinkled some glitter on red tacky tape on top left of the card to add a bit of sparkle!

That's it! Super easy and takes just 15 mins to make!

So... I guess that's it for today... till next time folks!
Hope you enjoyed reading it and that it inspired you to create something new!
