Hello everyone,

This is Hussena and I am here to share a guest post by a very talented crafter and fellow designer.

Today's guest needs no introduction. She is a very well known crafter in the Indian craft industry. Her coloring skills are to die for, and her cards are breathtakingly beautiful! If you guessed Rajni Chawla, then, you are right :) 

Today she is sharing with us some cards she has made using the Papericious Monochrome Paper Pack. It is a long post, so sit back, relax, grab a cup of coffee and let's get started!

"I created a mix media Birthday Card for Papericious. The various textures are first formed using strips from Perfect Affair paper pack. Tone down the color with white gesso and build layers of blue shades.Once happy with the background, I stamped it randomly with grunge stamps and splattered diluted white and black gesso. To embellish the card, I have created layers using fussy cut images from the paper pack, Papericious chippies, and DCAM Tag die cut outs and also added some sparkling frosty look with frosting powder. The sentiment is from MFT label Love."
Here is Shaker card I made.


Since it's Papericious 2nd birthday, I made sure to add number 2. I have used number 2 Chipboard, chippies from Birthday Chipboard sheet and a mix of sequins again from Papericious. I colored the chippies with Tim Holtz Distress paints and while it was still wet, I poured in some glitter embossing powder and heat set it with the heat gun. I was not able to capture the glitter in the pictures but it surely looks stunning in real. The background is created from MFT birthday balloon stencil.

I hope you liked this month theme. I can't wait to see what all you will create for the challenge.

Before I go, I just want to remind about the Papericious big birthday giveaway and all the prizes we have lined up for you. Do hop on this post to get all the details!

Good Morning all!!

Rajni Chawla, here from Timeless Creations 

LOVE.....This four letter word has more power than almost any other word in the dictionary. It is the source of happiness, strife, joy, anger, excitement, and stress, all mixed up into one incredible feeling. Love is in the air already. February 14th is the day to spread the love and exchange affectionate gifts to one another. Capture some memories, share few reasons and gift your beloved with something very precious that is close to your heart. Today, I am here to inspire you all with the love album which gives you pleasure in sharing 10 reasons why you love your valentine. Papericious Blush Paper Collection is the perfect to create such album.

The album has 10 weaved pockets created using DCAM envelope die and Papericious Blush Collection. All the envelopes are weaved together with Papericious twine on the spine of the album. These envelopes can hold lots of pictures and message tags. Extra pockets have been added on the back of each envelope.  The newly launched Fancy Numero  Chipboards are perfectly sized to add the title of the album. The album is decorated using various chipboards and embellishments from the same paper collection.

All the supplies used from Papericious are listed below and linked directly with the Papericious site for your reference.

Hope you liked my project and I was able to inspire you to pull out your stash and make one such album for your beloved, this valentine.

A very warm welcome from me Aastha Jain on my blog. I know you have been waiting for a long time to see the reveal of our NEW Design Team 2016 - 2017, believe me, I am also too excited to announce.
