Winter Wishes DT project for Renebouquets

Hi fellow crafters!

I am introducing to you my Winter Wishes projects made with adorable pieces from Reneabouquets, Tonic Studios dies, a Cricut cutting file, and my own #Pastel Snowflakes Digital paper!©

I have used Beautiful Board pieces, laces, and jingle bells on my projects, as well as the prettiest Beautiful Board snowflakes you could ever imagine! These projects were so much fun to make!

I was really excited to work with these pieces, so I designed my own digital paper to match! (This will soon be available in my Etsy shop!) Below you can see how I also added shine to the Beautiful Board Linda's Love Flakes by using Tonic Nuvo drops and Mermaid Tail colored Glass beads from Renea's shop. I also made a whimsical rosette out of vellum, and added pom poms to resemble snowballs. I finished this cover with small gems to make it shine!

To begin, I used the Printed Beautiful Board Small Snow Ball Fight With Claire grouped with white Doily Lace and Beautiful Board Linda's Love Flakes on an adorable gatefold style mini book with a hidden surprise. To add some Christmas flair, I also tied some shiny gold Jingle Bells to the side of the cover with silver thread. This pairs beautifully with a Christmas ornament, complete with a Small Diane's Snowman. The pieces are just darling, and I also added pieces of Venetian lace to the small star. 

You may have noticed something peeking...well inside this book I used the absolutely gorgeous Tree of Life Beautiful Board piece atop an acetate pocket that is also a magnet-held picture frame. This sits on top of more Doily lace, and is flanked by Printed Beautiful pieces!

You can insert a tag into this pocket for an extra message, or you can place your favorite picture to gift to a loved one. The outer pages can be removed for added notes, or small pictures. A closer look allows you to see the glimmer added with Glass Glitter, as well as the Beautiful Board pieces :Christmas Belle Itty Bitty Chipboard on the left and Tiny Jack's Snowman on the right.

Here again is a closer look at the small Christmas star with the Printed Beaituful Board: Small Diane's Snowman.

The small hearts, painted with glimmer, are also from Renea's store. Isn't it darling?

For a more sophisticated touch, I made a larger star. This time adorned with pieces of the Pearl Accented Wedding Day Lace, and the lovely Printed Beautiful Board Large Victorian Winter Laser Cut Chipboard. This pretty lady is available in the store in your choice of color. 

The back of the star is adorned with a piece of  Reneabouquets Trim-Tattered Pink Pleated Tulle, and I also added another Linda's Love Flake and Vintage Snowflake, both altered with Nuvo drops, paints, and gems. The white rosette also has added Glass Glitter and a Moonstone in the center.

 I love Vintage style pieces, and this one is perfect for a Victorian Christmas!

On my Youtube channel, you will also see an additional card made with more Reneabouquet Products, and you will see how these pieces are made with step-by step tutorials! 

I hope you have enjoyed these projects, and that you can Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Life is Beautiful Mini Album DT Project for Reneabouquets

Hi crafty friends!

I am here to share with you my album titled: "Life is Beautiful".

  I have used lovely items from Reneabouquets, floral papers from Recollections, as well as Tonic Studios and Spellbinders dies to create this lovely keepsake.

On the cover, you can see the adorable Printed Beautiful Board Tiny Flower Girl Daphne. She is coupled with the Beautiful board Victorian Scroll Pattern Laser cut chipboard. I have used several pieces of the Victorian Scroll pattern throughout this book.

You can also appreciate the beautiful colors of the Pink and White roses and gardenia, carefully arranged with cabbage roses and grouped with Garden Part and Venice Rose Laces .

On the spine, I have carefully arranged the Garden Party lace atop others, and grouped it with the Pearl Accented Wedding Day Lace. It is both delicate and beautiful!

My front cover features a Sweetheart Pink Glitter Glass Premium butterfly. I love the tiny heart detail in the center! It tops off a gorgeous gold accent made with a Spellbinders die. The opposite page hold a card that slides out. This is topped with a piece of white Beautiful Butterfly lace.

Here you can also see the delicate white lace on the left. This is the delicate sheer Romance lace. The golden die cut is topped with sequins and pearls for a touch of soft color.

The very next page is my favorite, and it showcases the Beautiful Board Elizabeth in Paris topping a piece of Daisy Chain lace. This is also grouped with the same golden die cut from Spellbinders. Opposing her is the grand Eiffel tower, complete with sequins and delicate pearls for a very Victorian layout. 

This page showcases more pieces from the Victorian Scroll Pattern collection. You will see how I grouped these pieces on the outer and inner pages. The matching tags tucked in the pockets will hold pictures inside, and these are also decorated with pieces from the Garden Party lace, and Spellbinders dies. The small heart shaped gear is from the Beautiful Board Spring Beautiful Bits. I used a moonstone bead in the center for added shine.

These are the interior pages with more pockets made with Tonic studios dies, and matted layers for pictures.

Below is a double pocket page decorated with a gorgeous Beautiful Board Small Victorian Snowflake Clock face, topped with another gear, and it is followed be a sentiment that reads : Moment, also made of Beautiful Board. This is also adorned with a Sweetheart Pink Glitter Glass Butterfly. 

The pockets were created using a Crafters Companion die, and it houses two photo mats, with room for more. 

Below are the tuck spots made with Tonic Studios dies.  I thought the flowers were perfect for this book!

Here is another double pocket page, this time with more Victorian Scrolls and Beautiful Butterflies to adorn the photo mats. I fussy cut the floral paper to make the pockets on the page. 

Below you see more of the Venice lace, this time paired with the Watercolor Cherry Blossom Premium Glitter Glass Butterflies. They are absolutely beautiful among the floral garden in this book!

The sentiment reads: Life is a Beautiful Journey. I believe this to be true!

The last page houses another tuck away side pocket. This time I adorned the card on the edge with a piece of Garden Bouquet lace. This gives the book an adorable junk-journal look when it is closed. The lace is covered in beautiful pearls. 

Last but not least is the back cover. Here I used a stunning Beautiful Board Small Romance and Roses Heart Frame. It serves both as a picture frame and a shaker!

As you can see, I have filled it with shiny sequins and rose microbeads from Reneabouquets, and also tied golden tulle on the edge. The picture will slip in on the side of the page.

I hope you've enjoyed this project share, and that you take advantage of June's Coupon available at Renebouquets with your thirty dollar purchase. You will receive a set of gorgeous dragonflies!

As always, I thank you for your time, and hope that you can 

Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Vintage Dream Big Keepsake Wallet- DT Project for Reneabouquets

Hi friends, 

First, I am thrilled to share that I have been invited to be a designer for Reneabouquets! This is a very big honor for me, and I am super excited to share the beautiful items Renea has in her shop to add just the right touch to your special projects.

In this post I am sharing my first design team project, a beautiful journal made with several laces, boards, flowers, and other goodies from Reneabouquets. Links for all mentioned products will be provided for ease of purchase. 

(I used Tonic Studios paper on this project!)

This is the cover of this special journal, where I have used the following:

  Tiny Emilie In Paris, Beautiful Board 6 Piece Small Texture Pattern In Purple Laser Cut Chipboard , Beautiful Board Ivy Vines Tuck It In Laser Cut Chipboard, Tiny Treasures Premium Paper To Venus And Back Glitter Glass Dragonflies, Smoky Lavender Curly Roses Mulberry Paper Flowers, Marie Antoinette Pearl & Rhinestone Button Set, White Tear Drop Lace~White 1.5 Inch Wide, White Wide Floral Embroidered Lace (for the spine), The little glass orb hangs from the seam binding, adding a touch of sparkle. 

Here is a closeup of how you can alter the flowers using Gawdie Girl Diamond Chunky German Glitter Glass and Moonstone Beautiful beads to give your flowers added shine. The Printed beautiful board has lovely texture without added bulk, and the mulberry gardenias are just gorgeous!!

Here is a closeup of the  Tiny Emilie In Paris, Beautiful Board Ivy Vines Tuck It In Laser Cut Chipboard, and  To Venus And Back Glitter Glass Dragonfly. It is stunning up close!

The first page in this journal will keep a special picture, housed in the Printed Beautiful Board Medium Lavender Lilac Heart Frame Laser Cut Chipboard. I decided to use the  Dark Purple Glass Microbeads to turn this frame into a shaker. The page allows you to place a picture behind the sparkle!

(The heart-embossed paper is from Tonic Studios)

This page reads: Inspire, and it is finished off with a beautiful piece of Trim-Sheer Romance Lace, as well as a Tiny Treasures Watercolor Shabby Sugar Plum Roses Premium Paper Dragonfly, and the tiny little mulberry rose, also from Renea's shop.

 For some glitzy, sparkly touches, I used the Gawdie Girl Diamond Chunky German Glitter Glass on some of the clips that adorn the pages. 

 This page has a little romantic touch with a belly band topped off with a Beautiful Board  Follow Your Heart Doilies Chipboard and Tranquil Glitter Glass Premium Paper Dragonfly.

 On this pocket, I decided to place  Tiny Gabrielle In Paris Laser Cut Chipboard. I felt she fit right in with the beautiful Paris Themed papers. 

The pocket opens to reveal several places for pictures, journaling, and also a little tuck-spot I topped off with lavender pearls.  

 I fell in love with the depth of color and shine on this Tranquil Glitter Glass Premium Paper Dragonfly, so I used it once again to top off these graduated pages that tie off to the side with a gold-rimmed pink ribbon. 

 This simple page reveals another place for pictures and journaling. I kept it simple by creating a tie with a flower and brad, as well as layered pieces and a gold-guilded dry embossed lavender background for added texture. It also has a hidden side-pocket with an additional pink ribbon to decorate the border. 

 Here you can see that I created a cute little tuck-spot by making a little envelope topped with a heart. I also added another Tiny Treasures Watercolor Shabby Sugar Plum Roses Premium Paper Dragonfly to top off a heart-shaped clip. 

This page is also quite simple, as I loved the layered look of all the script papers, so I embellished it  a heart-shaped ticket on the side with a layer of floral paper and pink ribbon.  

On this page I made layers with floral cutouts and vellum, and also added vellum flowers that I embellished with  Gawdie Girl Diamond Chunky German Glitter Glass. To finish it, I also topped it with the gorgeous Beautiful Butterfly Lace. The paper is also dry-embossed and inked to match. 

This simple page houses two tags topped with tabs. All of the papers have stitching, embossing, and inking on the edges for a cohesive look in this book.

Here ends my journal. with more corners from the Beautiful Board 6 Piece Small Texture Pattern In Purple Laser Cut Chipboard, and a bottom trim with Reneabouquets Trim-Sheer Romance Lace.

Be sure to watch my video for a real-time and closeup view of this beauty. I had lots of fun making it, and as always hope that you can Be inspired, Be blessed!

Ethereal Mini Album

Hi friends, 

today I am sharing with you the sweetest little Ethereal Mini Album made with Items from Reneabouquets!

I incorporated items to make a soft and tender looking book that will be a very special keepsake.

On the cover:  A Victorian Heart Doily tops the paper covered Beautiful Board Tag. I also added elements to complete this cover with whimsy; the butterfly on the lower right cover is from printed Beautiful Board, and comes as a set with other pieces, including the tag. The silver crown and fairie are reminiscent of children's story books, which always inspire me. To ground this cover I cut pieces of the Beautiful Board Heart Lattice, Roses topped with Glass Glitter and Moonstones, a small skeleton leaf filled with champagne Micro beads, and the heart is covered with the glitter and beads, and topped with a gorgeous Tiny Treasures Sweet Pea Baby Blue Premium Paper Glitter Glass Butterfly. 

The book opens with a vintage bow topped with a  White Pearl And Rhinestone Button.

 For the Spine and Back cover of this Mini Album, I wanted to continue the garden-like feel. I covered the spine with Ivory Wide Floral Embroidered Lace, small beautiful board gears, a gorgeous Pendant blue dragonfly, and the back cover also was adorned with a beautiful printed Beautiful Board fairie, as well as a carefully placed piece of Beautiful Board heart lattice.

 The inside of this book is equally adorned using beautiful pieces to complement the cover. On this page: Scrolls top off the embroidered Ivory lace, layered with the Beautiful Board Victorian Snowflake clock, a delicate butterfly, and a small gear topped with a moonstone. The delicate little roses and leaf all work together for a shabby look that helps tell the story in this album.

 Here you see that every snippet of lace can be used. Especially if topped off by the Cotton Candy flat-back pearls...

 This delicate page has a border of lace topped with an altered clip that has a center of Champagne Microbeads as well as Glitter Glass panels, and a small Moonstone bead tops off the itty bitty gear.

  The Chunky Glitter glass helped me top off this dragonfly clip, and on the opposing page, a small yellow butterfly tops off a pocket adorned with a border piece of Vintage Lace.

 This small Heart clip also shines with Glitter Glass as it tops off a shabby belly band of layered tattered papers. This compliments the opposing page nicely, as it adds sparkle against the softness of the vellum shaker flip tag.

  Lastly, another little star topped with glitter. This completes this post, and I hope that you have enjoyed the examples of how you can incorporate these products into your book making. As always, thank you for your time, and I hope that you can Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Thank you Renea for the opportunity to have a go at playing with these marvelous goodies for the month of February! It has been much more delightful than chocolates!

Hugs & Blessings~Raquel
