Altered Box ft. Cut and Create Embellishment Sheets - SMILE


Altered Box (SMILE)  

Hello friends!
This is Nandini. Here I am back again with an altered art project. My luv for Mixed Media and colours have got the wings with the lovely products of Papericious. Some days before I just got a box  which is to be thrown away, but instead of dustbin it has got place at my craft table and I have renovate it with Mixed Media. 

Here is the procedure:
Take the box and paint it with the Chalk Paint “Bracket Green“.  Make some textures using Modelling Paste and stencil. Spray using brush some Lamp Black Chalk Paint on it. Let it to be dry. For the focal point, I have taken the Victorian Gate from the Papericious 3D Shaker Collection. For the colouring of the window, do the first coat with Gesso and second coat with Natural White Chalk Paint. Put some Crystal Clear Glitter on the wet paint so that it will be fixed with the colour only. Put some Sequins in it and cover it with an OHP sheet. To decorate it with flowers, take Cut & Create Embellishment Sheet "Blush". This collection has beautiful images of flowers, leaves, butterflies, hearts and keys. Do fussy cutting of all the images and make a beautiful composition near the gate. It gives a beautiful vision of a garden window which can make anyone smile. Take the sentiment "Smile" from the "Moments" Collection and colour it with Gesso and White Chalk Paint. To enhance its beauty, put some Crystal Clear on the sentiment. Let it be dry and settled.

Cash Envelopes ft. 'The Flickers'


Cash Envelopes ft. 'The Flickers'

Hello Papericious fans!  
This is Shakti here from Shakti Art Creations , today I have a tutorial for you all of not one but two cash envelopes.
This is my first time I am trying cash envelope with the gorgeous papers The Flickers.
This collection is perfect for cash envelopes because of the gold foil. I am sure every crafter loves the gold foil finish.
Let's have a look over the envelopes:

Here I used gorgeous papers from The Flickers Collection and CUT AND CREATE EMBELLISHMENTS SHEETS - Blush. I also used some sequins from the store and Frosting Powder.

Let's get started with the Tutorial:

Step 1 - I have taken a Cardstock measure 8.5" by 8.5". Score at 0.5" and 8" on the one side and on the other side score at 2.5" and 6".
Step 2 -  Now remove the part which are marked as "X" in the picture. 
Step 3 - After removing the X part fold all the score lines and use some tacky tape on the sides and at the closure point I am using magnets. This is how our envelope look like.
Step 4 -  Its time to cover the envelope with the pattern papers of your choice. I am using white and gold paper from the pack.  
Step 5 - Take another piece of pattern paper from the pack measuring 7" by 2.5". On the first side, score at 0.5" and 6.5". Now on the other side, score at 0.5", 1", and 1.5". Remove the part which is marked as X in the picture. After removing, adhere an Acetate  sheet at the back and add two layers of double sided foam tape at the back to give it some height.
 Step 6 - Put some sequins on the envelope and stick the above piece on the envelope. For decoration here I have fussy cut some flowers from one of the sheets from the Flickers Collection and adhered them on the right corner. I also used a piece of MDF stating Mr & Mrs from my stash. This is how our first envelope done which is a Shaker Envelope.   

Now quickly moving on to our second envelope. 
Step 1 - Make a raw envelope in the same way we did for the first. In this one, I am using ribbon for the closure and we are doing decoration part on this side of envelope. After adhering the ribbon, cover it with your favorite paper from the stash. 

Step 2 - I am using here a small frame from my stash and also fussy cut some embellishments from CUT AND CREATE EMBELLISHMENT - Blush
Step 3- To add some more shine, I took the cute frame and applied some Fevicol and Frosting Powder from the store. After doing this, it's now time to do the embellishing. I have used a piece of doily from the stash and also stick some embellishment before adhering the frame. 
Step 4 - In the end, stick the frame and add some flowers and key embellishment which we fussy cut earlier. To add some more finishing, I also add little amount of mixed media stones on some places and adhered some sequins on some places and we are done with it. 
I hope you guys love both the tutorials.

Gift Folio ft. 'Blooms N Berries' Tutorial


Hello friends!
This is Priti here, and I am here to share an inspiration project using the "Blooms & Berries" collection and the "Cut & Create Embellishment Sheets" from Papericious. This paper pack is absolutely stunning with gorgeous prints and florals. So I decided to make a love theme folio which I am planning to gift to my brother and his wife on their anniversary; and I am super happy with the result. The folio looked so pretty with these beautiful papers and cut & create embellishments. I also have a tutorial to share and I had worked out the measurements specially keeping these papers and the photo needs in mind.



Let's have a look at few more pictures and close ups before I take you through the pictorial tutorial.



Here is the tutorial. I have tried to keep it simple by writing all the measurements on the pieces also along with the scoring details.

Step 1: Base Page - Cut a piece of card stock measuring 9 3/8"x 11"



Step 2: Left side Flap - Cut a piece of card stock measuring 6.75"x 11". Score at 0.5" on the 6.75" side and apply double sided tape on the bumpy side.



Step 3: Right side flap - Cut a piece of card stock measuring 9 7/8"x11". Score at 0.5" on the 9 7/8" side and apply double sided tape on the bumpy side.



Step 4: Right side pocket - Cut a piece of card stock measuring 6.75"x 11 7/8". Score at 0.5" on the 6.75" side. Turn the piece and again score at 0.5" on both the sides of the 11 7/8" side. Apply double sided tape on the dented side and miter the corners as shown.


Step 5: Left side pocket - Cut a piece of card stock measuring 3.5"x7 1/8". Score at 0.5" on the 3.5" side. Turn the piece and again score at 0.5" on both the sides of the 7 1/8" side. Apply double sided tape on the dented side and miter the corners. 

Step 6: Remove the tape backing and attach both the left and right side flaps to the base page with the taped part below the base page. Take care not to overlap the scored lines. 

Step 7: Now, fold the scored edges of both the pocket pieces and attach these pockets on the flaps as shown below.


The folio is ready. So simple and easy, right? It looks like this when the flaps are closed.




You can decorate this folio exactly like mine using the new "Blooms & Berries" Collection and the "Cut & Create Embellishment Sheets".
