Papericious: Bouquet of Memoirs

Hi everyone

We all have our moments of joy, ecstasy, sorrow, euphoria, love, longing, pain, pleasure... the list is endless. And such moments get etched in our soul for years. We desire to preserve such moments and gain inspiration from them...

Today I am presenting a 3-D Memoir box which can house, photos, letters, your notes, restaurant bills, movie stubs, boarding pass, and anything and everything that connects you with such enduring moments of your life's journey.

To make this unique "Bouquet of Memoirs" I have made a square flap box using Papericious pattern paper. The Papericious pattern paper, available in more then 20 different stacks options - each having 30 sheets lovely designs of papers. I have used The Flora Season stack to make this square flap box. The two top flaps have small flexible magnetic strip hidden between the pattern paper so that on closure the box flaps stick to each other.

This box has space enough to house your lovely memories - your most cherished photos, that restaurant bill of your first dinner date, that ticket of your first journey, even your diary pages, your best friends autograph -- anything that has left indelible impression on your heart and soul...

This box of Memoirs is pasted and housed in an outer box - again made using card stock and The Flora Season stack of Papericious pattern paper. The box cover is decorated using paper flowers matching the lovely pattern paper,embossing powder and lock and key trinkets matching the prized possession inside. The box top is finished by distressing it with the Tim holtz ink which is spread using Paperlicious Blending Tool.

A must have tool introduced by Papericious which is sooo light weighted and can be easily used with blending foams for any type of precise inking, paints, etc.

Applying distress inks, alcohol inks or paints is now mess free and easily available in India.

By using Papericious circular collage sheet and 3D Dome sticker( u can check the video tutorial on how to use these lovely collage sheet) ,I have added that unique feel to the whole creation.
