Colorful Cards using Papericious Vellum

Hi All,

This is Priya here. As I promised in my last post on Papericious Vellum, I have another post dedicated to Papericious Vellum. I am showcasing another fun way to use vellum. This time, I have colored vellum using distress oxide inks to create my own colored vellum cardstock. I had absolute fun with ink blending over Papericious vellum in different oxide inks. I have also used Papericious Monochrome paper pack to accentuate colorful vellum.

 For both the cards, I colored vellum using different colors of oxide inks in shades of blue, yellow and red and cut out the vellum in different diecut shapes.
Since, the Papericious Vellum is thick, it didn't wrap at all with ink blending distress oxides. Also, the translucent property of the vellum results in amazing effects when layering vellum diecut in different primary colors, producing secondary colors.
I used Papericious Monochrome paper pack to bring out the beauty of colored vellum over neutral colors.
To finish off the cards, I diecut sentiments from glitter gold paper and used enamel dots in random pattern.
Supplies Used :
1. Papericious Vellum Cardstock
2. Papericious Monochrome Paper Pack
That's it from today. I hope you liked my take on coloring Papericious Vellum cardstock with distress oxides.
Hugs,
Priya

Whimsical Altered Embroidery Hoop

Namaste Friends!!

Kriti this side. Today I am here with a tutorial for an altered embroidery hoop. For today's project I have used Papericious Whimsical paper pack. Few other products that I have used are Papericious chippis, chalk paint, gesso, crackle paste and lace.

See what I have created...




To make this, firstly I have adhered and tied the mandala chippie with the hoop. I have tied the chippie so that it will work as a supportive base for my embellishments.


Next covered it completely with the Papericious White Gesso


After that I have applied a very thin layer of Papericious Crackle Paste on the edges of the hoop.


Finally I have covered entire composition with  Papericious Chalk Paint.



And after adhering all the die-cuts from the paper pack...this is the final output..



Some close-up pics







I hope you like the project and the tutorial.

Whimsical Desk Organiser

Hey lovely people, 
I have an easy tutorial today for you. I am working with Papericious mdf desk organiser and Whimsical paper pack.
  • Take a sandpaper and sand the edges to a smooth finish.
  • Brush away all the excess dust from the surface of the organiser.
  • I have used Cyber grape chalk paint to paint the inside of the desk organiser.
  • Next measure the sides of the organiser where you would want to place the pattern paper. Mark and cut the pattern paper to the measurements.
  • I have used Papericious Decoupage glue to adhere the pattern paper onto the mdf surface. I love this glue especially since the pattern paper is thick.Its perfect for adhering thick papers to mdf surfaces.
  • Use a squeeze/old credit card to smooth out the surface of all wrinkles and air bubbles trapped beneath the pattern paper. 
  • I have used Archival ink to define the edges. 
  • Seal your desk organiser with varnish.




Now to the part I love the most..Embellishing!! I have used images from the pattern paper and done some fussy cutting. Used foam tape to adhere it to the organiser surface.And not to forget the amazing and intricate designs from the Papericious White Chippis. I have used the Linear Florish here.





Hope you would love to try something like this for your desk.Mine would be holding my pens,planner, nuvo bottles...Do share with us what all your desk organiser holds.
Do join us for the ongoing challenge.

Baby Keepsake using Whimsical Paperpad

Hi friends, 
Welcome to the blog.Today I have used the Whimsical paper pad by Papericious to create this beautiful Shadow box.
Few days back I found a DIY kit to create a keepsake by taking the palm impressions of the baby. Its a non toxic, baby safe clay which needs to be baked in an oven.
I love the Papericious shadow boxes which can be altered in various styles. Today I kept it simple and easy. I used the Papericious decoupage glue to stick the papers on the shadow box and allowed it to dry. I fussy cut few flowers from one of the printed paper from the collection and arranged it at the base of the shadow box. 
Next I glued the baked clay piece on top of the flower cluster.I also added some butterflies from the same paper pad and scattered them all around.To add some more interest on this very simple Shadow box I added some White paint splatters and some silver sequins around it.
So this is the adorable project I did today using the whimsical paper pad and I am quite happy with final result.I will gift in this to my friend whose daughter has just turned one and she is an adorable kid.I hope my friend likes it and if you want to create a similar project visit www.papericious.com and you can get all the supplies there. 

Thank you so much for stopping by....
Hugs
