Graphic 45 8x8 One Page Wonder Mini Folio

Afternoon Everyone!

If you are looking for a fantastic little afternoon, or evening project, then this could be the one for you!

For this 'One Page Wonder' - which creates the base - I used one 8x8 inch piece of Graphic 45's 'By the Sea' to create this little folio, which has plenty of pockets and flips for your memories and photos. All the details are on my YouTube video. 


This would look great in any of your 8x8 inch collections and scraps. Hope you like it!

Graphic 45 Easter Gift Pouches. One Page Wonder.


Hi Everyone!

These little Easter Gift Pouches were made with Graphic 45's Time to Celebrate papers. One 6x6 inch paper is all you need or you could get four out of one 12x12 inch piece, and then decorate with all your scraps. Perfect for little easter eggs or small gifts.

I am laughing as I watch back the video on how to make them as I mention Christmas instead of Easter, but they really would be great for Christmas too, created in some lovely festive papers. 

I hope you enjoy them!

Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiment Spring Chocolate Boxes

 Afternoon All!

Spring is definitely in the air here in the UK, so I thought I'd share this little Spring/Easter 'One Page Wonder' project with you.

These Matchbox style gift boxes can easily be made from one sheet of double sided 12x12 paper. I used Graphic 45's Sweet Sentiments to make these projects that are perfect for filling with little Easter Chocolates. They measure 4 1/4 x 3 inches and are one inch deep. All the instructions are on my video.

Hope you like them!

Mintay Blossom Serenity Gift Pouch



Hi Everyone!

This little project is really fun to make!

I was lucky enough to be one of the winners in the Mintay Papers February challenge where I received a very generous 10 kg box of their lovely products.

One of the items was the latest Blossom Serenity collection and these were my first makes using them.

These pouches are the perfect way to give someone a little treat, along with a gift voucher or special note. They are easy to make, and even more fun to decorate. I hope you enjoy the video and manage to make some yourselves!

Happy Crafting!

Graphic 45 One Page Wonder Mini Album

 Hi All!

Today, I'm back with another video to show you how to make this fab little mini album. The base is a 'One Page Wonder' and uses one sheet of 12x12 inch paper. I used Graphic 45's Princess, and Bloom collections, and had a great time decorating them.



They are the perfect make for an evening or afternoon, and great as a little gift for Mother's Day, or any occasion depending upon the papers you use.

Hope you like it! Happy Crafting

Tim Holtz 'Proper Gent' Cards

Hi All!

I definitely need some birthday cards for men in the coming months, so I broke out my Tim Holtz  'Gentlemen' die (666286) and these are what I created. With a little Distress Ink, stamps (THMM115 and THMM141), small pieces of Ideaology Ephemera and a few simple techniques, these are what I came up with.

I've demonstrated how easy they are to make on my latest video here.


Hope you like them!

Stamperia Alterego Stash Smash

Hi Everyone!

I'm back with a little challenge to myself today, to 'Smash my Stash'.

I have chosen to use the Stamperia Alterego 8x8 inch pad which has twenty single sided sheets of beautiful artwork, along with the Paper Die Cut Pack. It is surprising just how much you can make from this.

I hope you like all my makes, which I have explained on my video, and they give you some inspiration on how to use busy paper pads and fussy cut images.
