Vintage Christmas Decor DT Project for Reneabouquets

Hi crafters,
This month I have the pleasure to share with you this Vintage Christmas Home Decor Piece with Beautiful Board pieces from Reneabouquets, items from my stash, and a repurposed board.
I began this decor piece with a board that I covered with Christmas themed scrapbooking paper from my stash. It all came together with the coordinating beautiful board pieces, which I was able to color with different inks from my stash. The Medium Decorative Scrolls are guilded in gold Nuvo flakes, and topped with Small Holly and Berry Corners.
The top of the piece also has a swag of Christmas Red Mulberry Paper Poinsettias, Roses & Holly Leaves. These I altered with bronze Nuvo drops and gold spray. I also tucked small pearls guilded in gold between the flowers.

The Beautiful Words Small Merry Christmas Laser Cut Chipboard is also guilded in gold, backed with the Venise Lace die cut pieces that I distressed with Ranger inks, and topped with one of the Beautiful Bits Snowflakes. I also added Cranberry Translucent Glass Microbeads. Sprinkled throughout are Beautiful Bit snowflakes and painted to match the color scheme and topped with little red pearls and gold gems.


To make this warm scene, I also painted a fireplace and topped it with one of the Beautiful Box Small Square Shaker Boxes. This is also adorned with a Beautiful Board Small Holly Flourish Laser Cut Chipboard and pieces of Printed Beautiful Board Small Holly And Berry Corners With Tuck Ins. These shakers are so versatile, because you can color them to suit your needs!

To finish this piece, I also colored a Beautiful Board Small Shabby Christmas Tree, topped with different colored gems and baubles. This is also grouped with a Printed Beautiful Board Small Christmas Holly who also has with her some adorable golden Jingle Bells. To ground this, I also distressed pieces of Beautiful Board Wildflower Elements Laser Cut Chipboard. To bring everything together, I also used bronze and gold glimmer paste for extra shimmer.



I hope you like this home decor piece, and take advantage of this month's coupon code for all your Beautiful Board pieces. This was lots of fun to create, and as always I hope that you can 
Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Camera, Card, and Cantilever Box DT Project for Reneabouquets


Hi friends, 
I am super excited to share today's Design Team project for Reneabouquets with you. I have used some of my favorite Tonic Studios dies, a file from Silhouette Design Studio, and other items from my stash to make these adorable gifts. The items will be swapped with a partner in a crafty group. I hope she enjoys using them!


Here is the final group of items, as you can see, I used lots of adorable laces, trims, and beautiful board pieces throughout for a shabby and elegant look. The papers are 'A Romantic Life' from #Bluefernstudios, and available at Renea's shop.

To begin, this adorable little camera was just so much fun to make! I adorned it with the title "Fearless", a gorgeous feather, small daisy and gear.  These are all part of the lovely beautiful board pieces you can select from Renea's shop. To make them fit my theme, I altered these with gems and Tonic Studios Nuvo drops. The lens is also made from Vellum paper that I altered using mixed media. 

You can also see traces of little lace flowers. Those are from Renea's Daisy Chain Lace. I cut small pieces and used them to top off my vellum flowers, made with a Fun Stampers Journey die. All other flowers, butterfly, and the gorgeous Bridesmaid lace with heart motifs are also available from Reneabouquets. 

The Bridesmaid lace really took this project to a new level. Just look at that heart shape! I couldn't resist making the small handle out of delicate pearls. This is a camera fit for a true lady!

Now...are you ready for this?

Yes!!! I made a double stacked cantilever box using the gorgeous Beautiful Board Large Dainty Butterfly Pattern. This is such a versatile piece, and I truly enjoyed adding it to the base of this box. Layered underneath is part of the Daisy chain Lace trim. Peeking from underneath the Double Sided Butterfly is a piece of the Garden Party Tea Rose Lace, This comes with clusters of small flowers and gems included. 

To top off this gorgeous tower of boxes, I added handmade flowers I made with #Tonicstudios dies, and Crafting Foam, layered along with Garden Bouquet Lace pieces, and the stunning Venice Rose Lace. The small Wildflower and Skeleton leaf complete the look together with the double sided butterflies.
Included in this grouping is also a folio, and a Polaroid Style shaker card. To house the small folio, I created a sleeve that I decorated with a Vintage Fairy Bell and a Tiny Candy Cameo Frame.
These are backed by a piece of the Venice Rose Lace and vellum for a soft look.
I also topped of the frame with Cotton Candy Flatback Pearls, and altered the fairy with a small flower from my stash. The closure is a hand dyed piece of seam binding topped with a gem. 

Here is a closer look at the small folio, decorated with a Tea Rose beautiful board piece, a small Fairy-est Of Them All Laser Cut Chipboard. She sits on a bed of flowers cut from the Daisy Chain Lace. I also cut other leaves and flowers to complete the little garden scene.

To finish, this is the Polaroid inspired shaker card. Here I used pieces of the  Garden Bouquet Lace
as well as Beautiful Board Beautiful Bits - Tea Roses. The small Butterfly Kisses Spun Sugar butterfly gives it a special touch. I used Tonic Studios dies to make the shakers, flowers, and the filmstrip that I backed up with altered vellum. I also used Nuvo sequins and others to complete this card. 
This concludes my project share. I hope you have enjoyed it, and as always, that you can 
Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Queen Bee Handbag and Sketchbook DT Project for Reneabouquets

Hi crafty friends,
For this month I want to share with you another fun project I made using Items from Reneabouquets and Tonic Studios dies.
I wanted to make something ultra lush, as I would be working with the Glass Wing Queen Bees from Reneabouquets. As we all know, there is only one queen in the hive, and for this queen, a beautiful handbag and sketchbook are essential!

Here is the couple with the hexagon shaped handbag covered in a beautiful handmade flower bouquet. Each handmade flower is delicately sprinkled with Gawdie Girl Pink Chunky German Glitter Glass. Grouped along the top of the handbag are also Beautiful Board Hexagon Elements Laser Cut Chipboard pieces that are embossed in gold, and scattered with Moonstone beads. I also added layers of embossed vellum resembling honeycombs, and hand-colored roses made with a Tonic Studios stamp and alcohol markers. Underneath is a piece of Ivory Wide Floral Embroidered Lace.This will surely provide a safe landing for any queen bee!
I

Along the side of the handbag, I wanted to ensure to add a handle, so I crafted one out of gold cord, and attached it to the bag with Tonic Studios die cuts that I layered with gold and black cardstock. Small black sequins top off the faux clasps. The base is also dry embossed in a honeycomb pattern, and topped with cascading hearts created with Nuvo expanding mousse and Finnabair golden nugget effect paste. The entire thing is also sprayed in gold.
Here you can see the queen bee front and center. She tops a piece of Beautiful Board Large Stackable Honey Bee Pattern that has been altered with Finnabair golden nugget effect paste,and sprinkled with pale pink microbeads. It all rests on the hexagon embossed front of the handbag.

Take a closer look at the detail in the Glass Wing Queen Bee. They are so amazing!

Now, lets look at the sketchbook! It fits comfortably inside of the handbag, but it is also made to fit the theme very nicely. On the cover, you see another grouping, only this time I used the Beautiful Board Medium Honey Bee Chipboard. To make it cohesive, I also colored it using my Nuvo alcohol markers and Nuvo Gold marker. The decorative pieces are also sprinkled with Gawdie girl pink glitter and moonstones, and they all rest on a bed of honeycomb chipboard pieces topped with vellum honeycombs, and lovely red roses. The phrase "Inspire",and the Notebook pages are all cut using Tonic Studios dies. 

On this page, I recycled a piece of clear packaging and created a page by embossing it in a honeycomb pattern. Using a lovely stamped phrase shared by a friend, I adorned the page by framing it out with more vellum embossed pieces as well as the hand-colored roses and yet another gorgeous GlassWinged Queen Bee. In the background you can see the pages, They alternate between sketch papers and mixed media papers for a fun sketchbook.

Never forgetting the words that inspire me to create... I incorporated some scripture verses on key pages in this sketchbook. Here, I adorned the page with a piece of Beautiful Board Large Stackable Honey Bee Pattern, only this time I cut it in half to fit my page, added black embossing powder to make it shine, and sprinkled it with small moonstones
On this page I did the same, only here I embossed the honeycomb pattern beautiful board in gold, added moonstones and gems from my stash, and added a beautiful Proverb. 

For the last page, I decided to add a pocket. I dry embossed and stenciled the paper, then added photo corners as a decorative element. To finish, it, I added a piece of applique given to me by a sweet crafter, and altered it using gawdie girl pink glitter, pearls and gems from my stash, and a beautiful 
This concludes my project share, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have! Please visit the links for your convenience, and don't forget to watch the video for more details. 
Thank you for stopping by, and as always, I 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:


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!!



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

Shabby Chic Envelope with Attributes of Love for ReneaBouquets

Hello friends!
Welcome to my blog. I am sharing a very special project with you today, as I am thrilled to be invited as a Guest Designer for ReneaBouquets this month!
To make use of her absolutely gorgeous projects, I decided to make a piece inspired by 1 Corinthians 13. In this chapter of the Bible, we can read about the Attributes of Love. I was inspired to use this as the message of my home decor piece. 
This is a metal and wood envelope, and as you can see, I was able to alter it and make it a gorgeous piece that would be suitable for home decor, or to celebrate any special occasion!

I began by painting the base of the envelope with gesso, and adding designer paper to the inside. I then used gel medium, and Diamond Chunky Glitter Glass to give it a shabby distressed, but classy look. Of course I had to make use of some of Renea's absolutely gorgeous Vintage Blue Mulberry flowers
I love Gardenias and Roses, so these had to make it on the front. I surrounded a Beautiful Board Victorian Heart Doily and added  Small Victorian Scroll Borders, all embossed in white, and then topped them off with Butterflies to match. The Wide Floral Embroidered Lace and Reneabouquets Trim-Timeless White Lace
 added just the perfect mix of vintage and femininity to my project. 
Here you can see the beautiful Trim Timeless White lace as well as the texture from the glass glitter added to the designer paper. I used Stamperia papers for this project, as well as vellum and Kraft paper for lots of shabby texture.


You may be surprised to learn that Renea  also carries trinkets, but you can see some here, with the little glass bauble, as well as the precious pearl and diamond button I added to the front of the large envelope.

 Here you can see that I designed banners to top my envelopes. Each with a different attribute of love, and all take part in completing the Bible verse about love.


 Here is a closeup of one of the envelopes that I stitched with gold thread, and added magnets to for easier closure.
 I also used a delicate skeleton leaf from Renea's shop to add texture to a small note that I hand stitched with gold thread. All of my enveloped got texture and shabbiness from Renea's shop!

Here you can see the gorgeous Moonstone glass beads, Champagne Microbeads, Heart Lattice Chipboard, and Pendant Blue dragonfly, all from Renea's shop. The lent just the perfect shabby touch to this romantic envelope that I layered using vellum that I embossed and altered with mixed media. 

Here you can see where I also made a small banner using vintage seam binding topped with small hearts and Cotton Candy flat back pearls . This envelope is also a shaker, and has an inlay heart that also states :Love does not delight in evil bu rejoices in the Truth...

For this envelope I used more of the stunning wide floral embroidered lace, Cotton candy pearls, and another dragonfly to go along with the tattered papers, tulle, and vellum lace piece for an extra shabby look. 

I also heat embossed and distressed the envelopes as needed using Ranger Oxide ink and White Embossing powder from Recollections, and a stamp from BoBunny. 

The last envelope in this project was made using embossed vellum, mulberry paper, glimmery tulle, embossed and distressed paper, lacy paper diecuts, and I added heart paper clips from Tonic Studios as well as the gorgeous dragonfly that matched perfectly from Reneabouquets. 
I share more details in my video, as well as a tutorial showing the assembly of the large envelope. This was tons of fun to make, and it was a wonderful experience using these gorgeous projects. Please use the links for your convenience, and as always I hope that you can 
Be inspired, & 
Be Blessed!
