A4 Ultimate Die-cut & Paper Pack (48pk)

Papermania’s popular Capsule Geometric range has just got bigger! Mocha is the newest colourway to join the collection, blending a selection of earth tones with a varied set of stunning patterns. Much like Neon and Mono, Mocha features luxurious gold-foiled elements throughout its products, from papers to scrapbooking sets, notebooks to gift tags and stamps. Personalise projects with triangular gold mirror shapes, quirky 3D embellishments and ribbons or craft tape. Customise soft craft with two new adhesive stencils and brown or pearlised white fabric paint.

1. To create a feature paper clip for your page, cut a four inch piece of Geometric Mocha ribbon and form a loop, crossing the lengths over so the patterned side faces out.

Foiled finish Craft with Geometric Mocha

2. Take a gold paper clip from the Scrap Book Set and poke the loop through the top. Tuck the tail ends of the ribbon through the loop and pull gently to tighten around the clip.

3. Trim the ends of the ribbon at an angle and place into position on the page, securing at the back with a dot of hot glue. Now chop and change any photos you wish to feature.

1. Draw guidelines on to kraft labels. Stamp your desired titles, using categories such as ‘receipts’ or ‘vouchers’. Rub out the pencil lines once the ink is dry, to avoid smudging.

2. Take three Geometric Mocha envelope bags. Adhere a strip of craft tape around the lower portion of each envelope, wrapping the ends securely over the sides.

3. Stick the stamped labels neatly to the centre of the craft tape on the envelope bags. Attach all three to a length of ribbon using mini pegs, with the smallest bag at the top.
