Now back to the theme - Gifts Galore. I love gifting unique handmade decoupage items. For today's theme I have made a birdhouse with a coordinating tag using the Flora Season Decoupage Paper. 

 Sharing some close ups of the birdhouse now. I have decoupaged two sides & done a bit of stenciling over the decoupage.


 To add some texture to the roof, I have used one step crackle medium.

 Here is the coordinating tag - 
Supplies used - 
 Gesso

We also have my teamie Parul sharing her inspiration for this challenge.
Lets see what she has for you -
I wanted to gift something to my mom and what could be better than a set of cash envelopes. So I came up with this set. It has got 10 money envelopes and a keepsake box to keep them all.  I also made a matching tag with it :)  And she really loved this present.  
I used "Hooked" Paper Pack from Papericious. 



That's all from us today & hope you will all share the handmade gifts made for this festive season & join the September Challenge.
Love,
Tanvi

Decoupage Creativity with Tina Ollett

Hello Papericious friends. A big warm welcome from sunny and warm Queensland, Australia.
For the past few weeks here we have been treated to some very spectacular warmish weather. So being inside in the airconditioning has been where I can be found playing today especially with the ever so gorgeous Decoupage Papers "Flora Season".
And this is my finished project. 

I decided upon using these Decoupage papers to keep the sizing in A4. So I used a piece of thick chipboard to back my first piece of paper. I used Gel Glue to do this then primed my Decoupage Sheet with clear Gesso. Using a dry brush with white gesso and a mix of Liquid Pearls colours (Rose Gold, Orchid, and White Opal), I painted my background page. I also made some white splatters with a watered down mix of white gesso.
I then primed both my Collage Chippis with White Gesso. They are as below... are they pretty ?
I then went on to dress the chippis with my mix of Liquid Pearl Colours as previously noted. I used just the nozzle to apply and then allowed them to partly dry. I then used a pointed tool to blend the colours a little.

I have added in some white muslin along with white lace to soften my project.

How gorgeous is the wings from the Collage Chippies. Stunning chipboard pieces. 

Above you can see the colours on the Collage Chippi pieces and the dimension added by the liquid pearls. I also added in some material flowers along with leaves from my very old stash. These were all dry brushed and coloured with Liquid Pearls as well. 

You can also see the layers of the second piece of Decoupage that I used as matting for my photo. These pieces were sanded a little to show through the white core to keep with the shabby theme of my project.

Well that is all from me today. Thank you so much for dropping by. I do hope I have inspired you in some small way to create something for yourself this week. Even if it is something small.

Until next time take care and happy crafting.

Decoupage - Keepsake Box

Hello, this is Tanvi & Welcome back!
Today I have a pictorial of a keepsake box showcasing the Flora Season Decoupage papers.
For the box I wanted to retain the shabby colors & look of this decoupage paper but at the same time alter the look completely. Did I succeed? Please let me know! 
Briefly here are the steps to create this gorgeous box.
Begin by carefully cutting the floral images.
Remove all the hardware from the box.
I selected chalk paints from my stash that coordinated well with the papers & painted the sides of the box.
Next trim the damask paper to the size of the lid & decoupage it. Let dry.
To enhance the shabby look I wanted to create a doily effect over this pattern. So I will use doilies as stencil.
I painted over the lid with dark red chalk paint.
Once done carefully lift the doilies & viola you have a beautiful doily pattern, gorgeous, isn't it! (Tip:Make sure to lift off the doily before the paint dries)
After this I decoupaged the floral motifs over the doily.
For the base I created bands of the two contrasting colors by, masking over the painted base.
Finished the box with 3 layers of varnish & light sanding between each layer.
Here are some closeups of the box - 
A creative start to 2019 for me......this is already my 3rd post 😊 & hoping to continue inspiring you all with the amazing new launches by Papericious.
Thanks for stopping by today & Happy Decoupaging!
Love,

Envelope Tutorial using Decoupage Papers by Nikkita


 Hello everyone, 
This is Nikkita and it's time to bid goodbye to 2018 and welcome 2019 with celebrations and fun. Today, I am back with a quick tutorial on  Envelope with a belly band. It's a picture-heavy post!
ENVELOPE with a Belly-Band

TUTORIAL
You will need Cardstock, Pattern Papers/Decoupage Papers and Embellishments.
STEP 1- Take a piece of cardstock measuring 8 x 7.75 inches, score on the 8 inch side at 1/2" and 7 1/2". 
Turn 90 degrees, i.e on 7.75 inch side, and score at 1" and 4 1/2".

STEP 2- For the belly-band, take a strip of 2 X 8 inches, and score on the longer side at 3 1/2 ", 3.75",  7.2", 7.5".

STEP 3 - Remove the top corners and last corner sides from the envelope as shown in the picture below, then add tacky tape or glue and stick them together to create the envelope base.
For the belly- band, apply tape or glue to the 1/2 inch area and create a band. 

STEP 4 - Finish the envelope by decorating it using Decoupage Papers or Pattern Papers as you like.
I loved working with Decoupage Papers as they are very easy to use and you can use it in many ways from making Decoupage projects to scrapbooking.
