Cookie Box - CC

 Hi all,

I wanted to show you how easy it is to create something from mixed collection. I used the Earthy Delight Collection and the Street Smarts Collection. I had these cookie boxes in my stash for ages and thought why not cover one in these collections and give to my golf crazy cousin filled with my choc chip cookies..

I don't have dimentions as each box is a different size. So, I covered the box only doing half of the sides as they fold in and also the base of the inside just to make it pretty..  Adding the golf pushout on the side and 'you are my favourite person' ephemera piece on the 3D foam circles. I also added the gloves, 'wishing you a happy birthday' and the chess set also from the ephemera set on the box. It really is nicer in person. I fussy cut the leaves and also have a grass punch in my stash which I used with vellum. SO nice..

 I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Hugs

Vellum Spine Book -CC

Hi all,

I loved this design I seen on yt and to be honest I cannot remember who it was. So I made one from my memory which could be scary indeed lol. All measurements are in inches...

I simply cut two board panels at 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 and covered them with the gorgeous Earthy Delights  papers. I added the vellum spine then covered the bases with a square of the same paper.

I cut four pages at 6 1/2 x 3 1/8 score at 3 1/4   adhere the back of each page on three sides  to the front of the next page with the back page adhered to the base. (leaving a pocket for tags)

I cut five pockets at 6 1/4 x 3 score at 3 inches & 6 inches  Glue three sides together and adhere to each other in the middle of each pocket. Adhere the pocket to the base. 

Cut tags and place in pockets and pages.. 

 I hope I have inspired you

Tea Box for Vellum Tea Bags - CC

 Hi all,

I made some tea bags awhile ago with the fantastic Earthy Delights vellum from Couture Creations and I thought why not a tea box to put them in.. My sister in law gave me a box of my favourite tea bags I am straight away thanks Lynne I appreciate the box and promptly took the tea bags out of it..Yep she was confused for sure hehe.

I pulled it apart gently and measured around it so I could make more if I wanted so this became my template. Using the wonderful papers from the collection I cut out the right and left separately and adhered them together for a stronger join.

Inking around it all gave it an aged look which I really loved. I placed some cardstock that matches the collection for extra sturdiness and it worked a treat.

How brilliant does this look! I used minimal decorations and I think the tea box is usable if I wanted it.

https://blog.couturecreations.com.au/donna-triffitt/crafty-vellum-teabags-with-donna/

I placed a epherma on top of the box and front and used a piece of trim to keep it shut. So happy with how it turned out.. 

 I hope I have inspired you

What Do You See Layout - CC

 Hi all, 

Here we are again and this time I am doing a layout using the wonderful Earthy Delights Collection from Couture Creations.. I love taking photos of strange stuff (my hubby calls it that lol) and I felt his paper called to this photo. It is from a tree trunk that I saw while travelling in our great part of the world Australia. What do you see in this? I see a Parrot other see a fish or bird or duck but for me it was instant with the parrot.

Did you know that the gorgeous (I love it) vellum paper matches the 12 x 12 papers!! Well I did not until I accidently put the vellum on the same piece of patterned paper and voila this page was born. I tilted it just a fraction as I like the 3D effect it gave me.  

Using the stencil with the collection I blended ink then using the brilliant foiling pen and gold foil (both available from Couture Creations) I drew through the stencil leaving gold bits. This became my background for the picture. I die cut the letters with the top layer using scraps from the Earthy Delights Collection.

Just love the vellum and its a great quality as well.

 I hope I have inspired you

4 Drawer Box Easel Card-CC

 Hi all,

How are we all doing in the middle of winter?  It is cold down my end that's for sure.. Today I am showcasing the wonderful goodies of the Earthy Delights Collection from Couture Creations.. This collection is such a clean looking collection that you could use any colour papers to be an accent, wonderful!!

I have made a 4 drawer box which I totally loved.. So join me in creating with this paper collection.

I love shortcuts so I brought some already scored cards 135mm x 135mm from Couture Creations as my base. I folded one in half as shown and cut another card in half (keep the other half for another project). I decorate the front of the card before adhering it to the half fold. (you only need to adhere the bottom half of the card front).

I used a die to make the matchboxes and covers but there are a lot of tutorials to make them. I made a few different ones with a 6" x 6" piece of cardstock that I scored 1" on all four sides then cut a slit on each four sides to the score lines to then fold up to give a matchbox.

 

Cut four mats measuring 5/8" x 1 7/8" for the front of the drawers & four mats measuring 5/8" x 2 1/2" for the sides of the boxes. Ink around edges. Inside mats are 1 7/8" x 2 1/2". 

Decorate the front with the gorgeous papers, dies and ephemera pieces to finish.

As you can see here in this photo, only the bottom half of the front panel is adhered . 

 I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Hugs

Vellum Tea Bags - CC

 Hi all, 

Today I am showcasing the gorgeous vellum from the Earthy Delights Collection. This is beautiful thick 8" x 8" patterned vellum that was delightful to work with.. I want to use this is so many ways that I was dizzy with indecision on what I would do first lol I made the tea bags ...

They are so pretty..

Look at that gorgeous vellum!! Cut a piece at 3 1/2" x 6". On the 6" side score at 2 1/2", 3 " & 3 1/2" Turn and score 1" & 2 1/2" 

Fold your score lines placing a strip of double sided tape along one edge as shown, take off the white backing and adhere the other side over it and smooth.

Fold the tea bag as shown 'W' .

Cut approx 1/8" off the top of the back side and add sequins to both sides. Fold both corners at the back so they meet in the middle, place a length of string in the middle of them and staple. Punch out two small hearts and using the new double sided dots (perfect height btw) adhere them to both the front and back of the tea bag. (Thank you heaps for these ideas & tips Treasured Books). Cut out a square of vellum and cut the corners off. Place the string/ ribbon in the Centre and staple.

Stamp & die cut the embellishments from the collection and again using the new double sided adhesive dots place on the front of the tea bags.. I wanted the pots to shine so I got out the brilliant (honestly) Heat Foiling Pen and a scrap piece of foil and added some bling. Pretty!!

I made some in the 6.5 x 6.5 paper pad sheets to mix them up. You have to see the new project I am creating to match these. Keep an eye out..

 I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Hugs
