Shadow box with Mintay papers

Hello, DT Henriëtte here today sharing a  shadow box I've made.
It a room box with a small  study scene.
The box measures: 6 x 4,5 x 3 inches (15,5 x 11,5 x 7,5 cm).




The outside box, the desk and the shelves are made from 2 mm thick kraft board.
I covered all pieces with Mintay papers from the Dear Diary and
the Life Stories collections.




All the elements like the books, lamps, paintings and the typewriter are 
fussy cut from the bonus sheets and the papers.





I loved creating this miniature room with just some patterned papers, a sheet of  
cardboard and glue.




Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs, Henriëtte.

Life stories

Welcome everyone

It's Monika today with another make, this time I made a card from Mintay papers which are so beautiful that you do not need a lot of embellishments to make it
 look pretty. So I used two layers from the paper pad and started to build up my composition. 



I used lace as my first element on the card and added flowers, sisal, die cut leaves and a frame from light clay I had made some time ago.


To give it more interest I added silver paint on the leaves, flowers and frame.
I just love a bit of sparkle :)


At the and I thought that sequins would look good on this card so I added few here and there.

Hope thet you like this project:)

Have a lovely day

Easel cards with Mintay Life stories


Hello, I've created two easel cards using the Mintay's collection "Life stories".



I've made a masculine and a feminine easel with the patterned papers available in the collection
and also two matching envelopes.



The idea and envelop template I found here.
On the masculine card I added cut outs, a colored chipboard from Fantasy.
and a Tim Holtz wooden slice to hold the easel in place.



and this is the envelop:


For the feminine easel card I added fussy cuts from the Mintay papers.




Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs, Henriëtte.
