Enjoy your adventures with altered travel journal

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my April inspirational post.

This is Irit from Irit Shalom Designs here today and I am going to share my new travel journal cover that was made with Papericious new, just released, Let's go collection.

I made the chipboard cover using some recycled chipboards and then covered them from both sides with two Papericious cardstocks. The 12*12'' cardstock fits the regular book sise, but not allows to make folds as it's pretty much close to 12*12''. So I glued one cardstock on the top, the second one inside and then added borders on the outside with what was left from the inside cardstock.

The background panel was made from different strips from Let's go collection, but then with all paints and mediums you just can see the strips, but not the patterns.

First I painted them with white gesso and then with the thin layer of black gesso and then added the travel words using Tim Holtz stencil and texture paste.

The color was made with different acrylic paints and wiped for the mute final result.

Then embellishment cluster was made with layers over layers of Let's go cardstocks.

Some were border punched with Binding edge punch. Some are pieces of background die cuts I made with different dies.

Pieces of Papericious new released background chipboards were added between the paper layers, painted with black acrylic paint.

I added two paper cuts from the sentiment cardstock and the chipboard title on the top.

The chipboard title and the chipboard arrows were heat embossed with blue embossing powder.

As you can see I added quite a lot of layers over the cover, but then it's still  flat as this is a journal to use and it can't be too bulky.

And this is how it looks while standing:

A Mini Accordion Fold Card with Box

Hello friends!

Erum here today bringing to you another accordion fold card but this one has a coordinating box as well. I have used the Whimsical Premium Edition Paper Pack for my project.

 Let's start with the box.

Isn't this paper just beautiful?!

I added a bit of gold heat embossing to it and dropped some purple watercolour.

Check this gorgeous chipboard element out! I covered it in gold glitter.

This is from the themed chipboard collection Love You Mom.

Now on to the mini accordion fold card.

I used a very subtle pattern for my card front to give it a shabby chic, more whimsical look.

LOOK at the gorgeous gorgeous Rajni Chawala's Frosting Powder and Crystal Clear glitter!

Yes I used them both :D

This is how the inside looks. The first panel has a piece of the same pattern paper I used on the front and a greeting.

The second panel is a photo mat and the last two panels are writing spaces.

This "MOM" chipboard element and the heart below were both one piece, I cut them out and used them separately.

Here is the back side.

Two more photo mats at the back.

I hope you enjoyed the post friends! Let me know what would you like to see me create.

See you guys soon!

Mixed Media Art Journal - Heartbreak + Video Tutorial

Hello there, this is Ujjwal and today I am sharing a mixed media canvas using the newly released and absolutely fabulous Dots Acrylic Paints by Papericious. There are 17 colors available and I got to play with 12 of them and I have to say they are pretty amazing. The colors, the packaging and even the consistency of the paints is just perfect, not too thick and not too thin.

I created a mixed media art journal page with the paints and also used the newly released gesso and spray paints.

I also created a video for the process so you can see the mediums in action.

I hope you like this project and give these fabulous mediums a try.
Love, Ujjwal

I used store bought flowers and covered them up with Rajni Chawala's Frosting Powder.

It is the MOST gorgeous mica/glitter I have even had in my possession!

Let's look at the cards individually.

I used the gold foil hearts paper for this one. I added some watercolour to the front to balance my pink floral arrangement.

You can see the foil a little more clearly in the photo below.
