The Happiness Box!!!!

Hello Everyone!!!

This is Manu here and I have a surprise for you, A Happiness box is what I call it!!!
I'm sure you all must have gotten your this months release by now?? No, why wait?? grab these super yumm papers soon (I'm gonna get a few more for myself very soon) The new release i.e 'Happy Birthday' and 'Pretty Basics' is a super bright and fun filled one!!! 

Being true to it's name, I used the 'Pretty Basics' collection to make up this pretty box!!! The Happiness Box!!!


Liked the Teaser?? Lets checkout the complete project!!!! 
Here's the Box for you!!!

The top panel!!

I also have a tutorial on how to make this one!!! It's pretty simple and easy peasy!



1. Take a 12*12 cardstock and score it along 4'' and 8'' on two sides, you will end up having 4" square on your cardstock. 
2. Now, cut through(lets say top right hand one) one flap on each side and then fold your box in from all the ends, you will end up having a box like in the picture below.
3. To make the lid, since my box width is 4", I took a 7" square (now here's the tip, I measure 7.1" ie. 1MM extra on two sides so that the box can go inside the lid easily) and then score at 1.5" at all the ends. Shape it like the lid . 
4. Tadaaaa, your box is ready to be embellished!!! Go wild with making your Happiness box pretty and full of fun!!

I made a cake inside and embellished it with flowers. For the flaps, I had 4 sentiments along 4 sides and then left 4 places empty to put the pictures!!!



Here's the box completely opened up!

Birthday layout with tutorial

Hello everyone,

 its Kavitha here today and i am sharing a layout tutorial with "Happy birthday" collection.
This collection is so happy and bright and i  just love the prints.So i decided to make a birthday theme layout for a little girl.This is totally different from my usual mixed media layouts,its clean and cluttered style with more of colors and layers and still with lots of white space left,hope you like this attempt of mine.

I took a rough 12 by 12 sheet and planned my layout first.I marked the the area where i want the pattern paper,cut them out n used as template.
Using the template i cut the pattern papers as shown
Now i glued down the papers and used a fussy cut banner from the pattern paper collection
I cut down some pattern papers in various sizes from the collection for my layers,as my base is white and the pattern papers also has more white i used some papers from pretty basics collection for my first layer so that it will elevate the layout from the background(both the collections matches so well).
I used lots of stickers  and enamel dots to make it more fun n colorful
Few close ups..



Thank you for stopping by.


Happy crafting,
 




Birthday special Easel card

Hello Everyone!!

I'm Manu and I'm so happy with the latest Papericious release!! This release is all bright and chirpy and soo colourful!! I'm sure you all must have seen the release by now and this months release offers soo many possibilities with it's 'Happy Birthday' and 'Pretty Basics' stack packs. While the Birthday stack is all about the birthday elements, the Pretty basics stack pack has Polka dots!! One of my favorites!!!! and yes the stripes too!! love this pack !!


Here's what I made with the 'Happy Birthday' Stack!! I chose to make a Easel card and kept the embellishments to bare minimum keeping in mind to highlight the papers!!! I really was pleased with the way the papers did justice to the card and pretty happy that only the papers could make a really nice card too!! 



I have done layering of the papers and the base is made with a black cardstock on which a white panel is attached and then 2 layers of pattern papers!


Have also used a stamped sentiment on a stamped imaged and distressed it off!

For added interest, have added a frame on top of the whole adjustement!

Quite happy with the card! And it's super simple and easy to make too!!!

I hope you do remember that papericious has started hosting challenge and this months challenge theme is Vintage!! So, all you vintage lovers, here's a chance for you to enter and grab some amazing prices.  Read all about the challenge here.
