Decoupage Pillow Boxes


Hi Everyone, today for my DT post for Craft Consortium I am showcasing a couple of their Festive Decoupage Papers from their amazing collection. I like to make pillow boxes to place small gifts in at Christmas time.

I started by gluing my Decoupage Papers on to cardstock and once dry I used my pillow box die and cut them out. The Decoupage Papers work far better in this die than normal cardstock as the don't crack along the seam.


Next the fun part of embossing my die cuts with different powders to compliments each pillow box.


My Snowflake was finished in the centre with this elegant Pearl and Diamanté embellishment.


My Poinsettia was finished with a Diamanté buckle which I added micro beads into the centre.

Please checkout Craft Consortium to see their vast range of stunning embellishments, paper pads and Decoupage papers on Facebook for inspiration and regular giveaways, you will also find them on Pinterest, Twitter and Instagram.

 Thanks for stopping by today, your visit and comments are always appreciated.


Crafty Hugs,
Julie x

    Delightful boxes Julie and perfect for those little gifts, I'm sure I have that pillow box die and you've given me a great idea for one of my small gifts for the granddaughters. Thanks for the tip about the decoupage papers, must try it with some I've got. Huge hugs xxx
