Mini travel Journal

Hi lovely people,
Today I would be sharing an easy travel journal using the Papericious Let's Go paper pack. I love travelling ,clicking pics and thought a mini interactive travel journal would be a fun way to document the journey. So sit back, relax and enjoy the process. 
I made a 4 x 6 inch mini journal as these are easy to handle, infact you can make different ones for the various places you would be planning to visit and I am sure you would always cherish filling these.
I started with taking coordinating cardstock for the internal pages of the journal to the Let's Go paper pack. The cover of the mini journal is made using the kraft cardstock as its thick and sturdy for the journal.
Two pieces for cover pages and one for the spine. Round the corners of both the cover pages.
For the spine score at 1/2 inch. I have made three scored divisions to accommodate 5-6 pages. I would be using paper cord to tie all the pages to the spine. Punch holes at both the ends of the spine. 
 Use a good adhesive/tacky tape to join the spine and both cover and end page of the journal. 



 For the internal pages score in the center and punch holes in symmetry to the spine's punched holes.  
 
 Next step is lining the base pages and outer cover of the journal. I love this paper pack, it has very apt prints for the travel theme.




 For binding the pages to the spine, pass the paper cord/jute cord from the inside towards the outer spine and knot it. Its the easiest method of binding the pages to the spine. 











Hope you get inspired by this mini travel journal and do share your versions with us. 
Keep crafting

Sweet Whimsical Tag

Hi Friends,
Welcome to today's post! This is a special one as we will be using one of the old but very popular  pattern paper this month. I have used the Paper pad called WHIMSICAL which is a gorgeous set. There are beautiful floral clusters as well as adorable animals having fun. I have created a large tag and for that I also used some Papericious chipboard and mixed media pastes.



I added few splatters using Papericious Spritz in Bamboo on the base paper, then I adhered another paper on top which I had ripped by hand.



I love the special sheets which are full of cute images and I have fussy cut few of them. I used the bubble shaped chipboard elements and then arranged all the fussy cut images in top. I added a sentiment and splattered some white gesso all over the tag. I also used some Papericious twinkling glitter to jazz up the project and that completed the project.



I hope you liked this post for today and here is the list of supplies used un this project.

Whimsical Mixed Media Shadow Box


Hello everyone,
Heena here from bloomingpaperbuds.com, Today I have a very dreamy, soft, shabby, "very whimsical'' mixed media project to share using the gorgeous Whimsical Paper collection. This is a premium edition paper pack from an older release and is one of the most beautiful collection.
Now let's have a look at my project,


For this Project, I have used a 6 by 8 Mdf shadow box and primed it with Papericious White gesso and also added some texture on the frame using the White crackle paste. All the images are fussy cut from the cut and create sheet. I have also used a floral stamp and stamped it on the Vellum cardstock and heat embossed it in white and fussy cut the stamped images, honestly, vellum adds that dreamy, soft and romantic touch to the project taking it to some other level. I have also used some chipboard elements, spritz sprays, twinkling spark, I have mixed two shades of the sprays to create a custom colour for this project.

 You can find the detailed supplies list below with links to buy them.
