Tutorial : Baby themed Squash book !!!

Hello Everyone!!

Half of the year has already gone by and so far the journey has been an awesome one! Papericious is growing leaps and bounds and is committed to bringing the best collection of pattern papers for all you crafty needs!!! We got a chance to use a few of the older collections for the April month, and yes, Papericious has finally started the challenges!!! It's fun entering into the challenges and at the onset of my crafty journey, I used to love participating in the challenges, for they allowed me to explore more and more and I had total fun making all sorts of things for the challenges. 
Read all about the papericious challenge by following the below link. Remember that you can enter into the contest for 4 more days.


I received the 'LITTLE STAR' paper pack and it has some really pretty collection for making baby albums and layouts!!
I decided to make a squash book with it and I have a tutorial for doing it too! So sit back and checkout another fun filled interactive card cum album!!


I kept it very simple and clear since it's supposed to hold baby pictures and baby pictures are a perfect in their own way!! There need not be any more embellishments to take away the glory!!
Here's how I made this one!

1. Take perfect squares, you would need 3 pieces, my square measures 9 inches * 9 inches. Make sure that they are perfect squares and also that the scoring is very accurate!

2. Fold each of the squares diagonally and then at 4.5 marks each side. Fold and keep aside. 
Now place them in such a way that one corner overlaps another one. I have my middle layer of paper placed on top of the other two. This way it's a little easier when folding!
Notice the marks where the mountain folds comes and where will the valley folds comes in.


3. This is the card's shape, when the mountain folds have been done. The valley fold will make the middle panel slide downwards and then this card would be in a shape of a perfect square!


Now comes the favorite part!! Embellishments!
This is how I embellished it!

This is the cover page. 


This panel is when the card opens up flat!

Few more angles!

I hope you all liked the card and would attempt to make one!! Do remember to enter into the challenge to win some exciting prices!

Happy Crafting!

Little Star "MY BABY'S FIRST YEAR MEMOIR"

 Dear friends
 A new baby in house always bring cheer in the whole family. The first baby cry, first word, first step, lullabys – every small incidence of the first year of the baby is a memory parents cherish throughout their lives. So let’s celebrate this best year in a parent’s life by presenting a baby photo multifold card/album for the first year.

Inspired by the thoughtful pattern paper by Papericious, called “Little Stars”, this small album can cover the entire first year milestone of your little one. The “Little Stars” by Papericious has a collection of neatly compiled boy and girl theme papers, stars and planets, die-cut embellishments and neat headers to define the milestones for the first year of your little one. In fact in order to create this album this pattern paper collection is perhaps all that you may require (besides a bit of your creative bone and some craft tools).

Let me explain you how to create this lovely “Baby’s First Year" memoir with the “Little Stars” pattern paper from Papericious

Step 1 : Card Construction
Make a multi fold(4 fold) card using cardstock and distress the edges.
Size is 5.5"x7.5"(one fold size) and later i added one top fold at the last page ...

Step 2 : Title Page/Cover
On the Title page, I have created a background of a pattern paper and used oval die. The baby carriage and also the little baby clothes embellishments are created.
Step 3 : Inside Pages
On the inside pages, I have used different pattern papers from the “Little Stars” stack and embellished it with Papericious die cuts (which is also a part of this stack). The milestone titles (like First Smile, First Step, First Tooth etc.) are also part of the stack.
Step 5 :Back Cover
 Step 5 : Decorating using embellishments
Now you can use some embellishments from your collection (like boat, aeroplane etc.) which would highlight the baby theme and make your creation look personalized and unique.

Step 6 : Finishing with Baby’s Pics
No movie is complete without the HERO. In this keepsake album, your BABY is your HERO. So go ahead and click nice pics of your baby (or search for these in your collection), get them developed in the desired size and paste it at the designated space… And lo… your album is complete. A prized possession and a thing you would cherish while you grow old.
I hope you all like this creation and would love to hear some comments!!!
Have A Nice Day!!!

Baby Boy Layout

Hello and good morning! ^__^

I'm Halak and today I'm gonna be talking about the Little Star paper collection by Papericious and the Layout I made using it.

I used 3 paper sheets out of the Little Star paper collection which were the die-cut sheet, the red polka dot sheet and the green one with the super cute dinosaurs!

Check them out! So pretty and vibrant!

This paper collection is ideal for baby boy projects. If you are looking for themed projects then, it has papers for making the following themes : Dinosaur, Space, Kite-flying and Nautical.
Along with that the pack comes with a set of 2 sheets of die-cuts!

Very quickly, here are the steps on making this :

1. Took green dinosaur pattern paper and adhered it to white cardstock.

2. Cut up die-cut design sheet and adhered the die-cut (top LHS) and patterned strip (bottom strips) to the project.

3. Added a bit more pattern through washi tape.

4. Stenciled a design onto the white portion using green, purple and blue dye inks.

5. Stamped sentiment using grey die ink.

6. Added sticker sentiments and dinosaur embellishments.

7. After that, I  added a couple of enamel dots, sequins and some faux paw-prints using black ink with a teeny tiny stencil.

8. Finally, matted the project onto red polka dotted paper for that vibrant look! ^__^

And that's how I did it!

Before I sign off, here's a fun close up :

I hope you liked it and thank you so much for stopping by! Till next time dear friends! *Hugs*
