Gift boxes "Botanica" from Julia MITRA.

Hello there!

It's Julia here to inspire you with a noble forest charm.

This year my vacation was in the country and I often walked in the woods and was inspired by herbs and flowers, textures and aromas. So the idea of creating these gift boxes called "Botanica" was born.

I like botanical themes and natural decor. So I used themed scrapbook paper, and various decor to her: die-cuts, cutting, flair buttons, sheets for painting from the collection "Botany Summer" (Fabrika Decoru), as well as many natural elements.

In this project I used a lot of stunning flowers:

Cream Yellow Daisy Paper Craft Flowers

Dusty Green Small paper Flowers

Celery Green Small Spring Cottage Paper Flowers

Yellow Cream Small Summer Cottage Paper Flowers

White with Pale Yellow in the middle 2 Tone Paper Flowers

To give the colors a little forest of negligence and naturalness, I painted parts of the flowers with Magic paints from Fabrika Decoru.

I chose the colors: Natural Siena, Burnt Umber, Olive, Green Earth and a little of Golden Sand.

In the layers you may notice roundels of natural cork, and even sprigs of colored chipboard.

Beautiful flowers compliment the charm of the Nature!

The second box is similar to the first and has the same arrangement of elements and decor.

On the background of the project and in layers you can see a lot of die cuts - Cherry Lynn French Pastry, MFT leaves, AgiArt spring twig and some foliage dies.

Die cuts, like many paper elements, I toned slightly with Distress Vintage Photo by Ranger.

Another beautiful element are butterflies!

The final touch is my favorite splashing technique using liquid drops "Chocolate" and "Beige" from Fabrika Decoru!

How do you pack your presents?

I am sure that family and friends will like the beautiful package no less than the gift itself  (lol).

Thanks for watching!

I'd like to remind you about our August IAR Challenge. A winner and a TOP 3 will get wonderful prizes from IAR!!

Choco box "Tea in the garden" from Julia MITRA.

Hello sweets!

It's Julia MITRA here to inspire you for a cup of fragrant tea (or coffee) with a piece of chocolate.

For my inspiration, I prepared a delicate flower box for chocolate.

This box is the perfect gift for a friend or loved one, and even for your teacher, doctor, fitness instructor... Perfect sweet gift!

I took kraft cardboard as a basis and decorated it with scrap paper, pieces of book pages, tulle, lace, die cutting and chipboard.

I used the word "Delight" to describe it verbally.

In my project I used a lot of beautiful flowers, of course:

Blush / Dusty Green Small paper Flowers

Solid Dusty Pink Wedding Craft Paper Roses

Soft Pink Small Spring Cottage Paper Flowers

Brown Variegated Artificial Crafts Arabian Jasmine Flowers

Soft Pink Small Crafts Paper Arabian Jasmine Flowers

For decoration I used a picture with a tea set and added a little sweet with a stamped cake.

In the project you can notice the leaves made with embossing on vellum.

 Some vintage details - for example, a village window.

Here's the view inside the box.

I added some embossing for decoration and used the word "flight" for the bird.

Have a sweet weekend, friends!

With ♥, Julia)

Boba Life 8x8 Frame

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today, I'm featuring the gorgeous flowers from I Am Roses along with some digital paper and digital stickers from MindyTdesigns on Etsy! I have recently fallen in love with Boba Tea and when I found these Boba Life Digital Paper and Boba Life Digital Stickers, I knew I wanted to create an altered 8x8 Frame to document my new found love! The great thing about digital paper and stickers is that there is no coloring involved so it's easy to put together a fabulous frame or card really quickly!

 I printed the digital paper as a 4x4 square and then cut the paper down to 2-inch squares. The rectangles are 1.25" x 2". I raised the printed cut-outs on foam tape for extra dimension.

 To finish off my 8x8 frame, I added beautiful I Am Roses flowers and mini leaves!

Don't forget you still have until August 8th to enter the current I Am Roses Challenge, and you can use any flowers in your stash for this challenge (they don't have to be from IAR). The best part is that there are 4 prizes up for grabs!! Don't miss out on your chance to win these stunning paper flowers!

Hugs, 

Rosie
