ONTO MY CREATION

A greeting card? No! Try this colourful & Beautiful Tower Explosion Box.This gift will explode once opened, & reveal all the love you put into it. It's not only a box, but also a gift to your lover, parents or yourself. When closed it looks like a box & when opens, all the sides fall back to reveal a large multi-layered card & after that when you pull it up one by one, it'll open like a tower. I made the box with an amazing Papericious Papers - OFTEN. One of the most colourful & beautiful Paper pack hitherto.

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.

MDF LOVE album using the OFTEN pack

Hello Everyone!

I'm Manu and this is my last post for 2015!!! 2015 has been an incredible year for me and I have learnt and absorbed a lot of things!! More so because I have fallen in love with what I do more and I hope this fascination and love towards my work continues in the new year too!!! 
Papericious has came out with 2 smashing collections in December and both are something to swoon on!! I loved working with the Infinity paper pack and you can view my desktop calendar here.
The other pack launched was OFTEN and my fellow DT members (a few of them) have already made amazing creations using it. 
I have made an MDF LOVE album using the OFTEN pack. I love this pack for it's bold look and very vibrant and rich colors! Lets checkout my take !

Sit back, Coz I have lots of pics to showcase the collection!


I do admit, it was hard for me to cut through this pack!
*sigh*




Couple inside shots!






I kept the insides to bare minimal coz I wanted to showcase the patterns and that the papers are totaly yumm!


Above were a few closeups!!! 




I totally loved the rich and vibrant colors on this one and couldn't help resist myself from cliking soo many pics!

I however do hope that you all liked my creation and yes, this pack is a must have in your collection!

Here's wishing you  A Very Happy New Year and that all your wishes come true!!!

See you around in 2016!!!
Happy Crafting!

Altered Diaries using 'Often' Collection with a Tutorial

Hello everybody,
This is Hussena here and I have some really quick and easy gifting ideas for the New Year. I'm sure most moms would agree that they would like to give a lil' something to their childrens' teachers or their hubby's clients. These altered diaries would make a perfect gift. The papers in the 'Often' collection are really very bright, peppy and trendy and they mix and match really well. The die-cuts that have been introduced with the paper packs make the perfect accents to dress up these diaries. Here's a look at two of these altered diaries that I have made:
(Scroll down below to check out the step by step tutorial on how I went about creating it).

 Diary one

A look at the inside of the diary:

The last page of the diary. The tags are die-cuts from the Often Collection.

A look at the back of the diary.

Diary two

Here's how I have embellished the inside of the diary.

This is how the last page of the diary looks like.
 
This is an inside page with a photo mat to include those special memories.

I have punched out circles and cut them in half to create these tabs on the side. These circles were punched out from all the left over scraps from the Often collection.
 
The back of the diary. 


 Now here's a simple  tutorial on how I went about creating this Altered diary :
Step 1 : Choose the pattern paper of your choice and measure and cut 2 pieces for the front and back of your diaries ...Just take an extra inch to your measurement as it will help to neatly fold over your paper.
      
 Step 2 : Cover the entire front cover of your diary with Mod Podge and also the back of your paper and glue it together.

Step 3 : Once you have glued the paper to the front of your diary, open it up  and cut a small slit on the corners of your paper as it helps to fold the paper easily and gives a finished look (As shown in the below picture).

 This is how it looks once you fold over your paper :

Step 4 : Now cover the back of your diary with Mod Podge and cover it similarly as shown in Step 2 and 3.

This is how your diary will look once it is covered :

Now to cover the spine of the diary cut an paper measuring 2 inch in width and the length will be the length of your diary cover. ..Mine was 8 inches so my dotted paper strip measures approximately 2 inches by 8 inches. Glue it over the front and back sides of your cover and now your diary is ready to be embellished.

A look at both the diaries together!

And this is how both the diary cover's look once I finished embellishing them. In both my diaries, I have used papers from the Often collection and have used die cuts from both Often and Infinity collections to embellish it further.

Hope you like my work and find the tutorial helpful.
Please do leave me your feedback as I love hearing from you :)
Have a nice day everyone!
