Simple Pop Up Cards using Graphic 45's Alice's Tea Party



 Morning Everyone!

Before I can get my hands on the new Alice in Wonderland collection just released from Graphic 45, I decided to pull out the previous release - Alice's Tea Party - and make some simple Pop Up cards.

I've created a video (link at the bottom of this post) to show just how easy it is to create these simple yet effective cards.

Hope you like them!

Flight of Fancy - Graphic 45

 Happy Saturday Everyone!

Today I'm sharing a couple of cards that I made for two friends' up coming birthdays.

I used Graphic 45's beautiful Flight of Fancy collection combining the 8x8 pad, Ephemera Pack, and some fussy cut elements from the 12x12 sheets.

I love all the jewel tone colours!

These are 6x6 cards with a two inch section cut from the middle. I then joined the sections using some of the larger images from the Ephemera Pack.

Hope you like them!

Woodland Glade

Evening Everyone!

It's been a while since I've done any 'family history' scrapbooking, so I pulled out the lovely 'Woodland' collection by Mintay Papers and created this layout.

The photo is of my Gran, who moved to a countryside village as a young married woman, so I decided to fussy cut all of the woodland images to create my scene. I layered each piece up to give dimension and added glitter to give a mystical forest glade look.

Hope you like it!

Graphic 45 Autumn Greetings Easel Cards

Hi Everyone! 

Well, it definitely feels like Autumn now, here in the UK! So I thought I'd make some pretty cards using Graphic 45's 'Autumn Greetings' 8x8 paper pad.

I decided to make 5x5inch easel cards, added a couple of die cut shapes to help create a focal point for all my fussy cut images which I layered up to add more dimension. The little journaling card images made not only a great stopper for the easel, but the perfect place on which to write my message. The colours in this collection are just beautiful!

Hope you like them!

Graphic 45 September Gift Set

 Morning All!

Today I thought I'd share a little card and gift set that I made for my friend's birthday this month. I used the two September sheets from Graphic 45's Time to Flourish range as the images are so beautiful and perfect for this time of the year.

I teamed the papers with some dark green pearlized card to make the card and box bases, and really managed to stretch my papers and scraps across the the three projects.

Hope you like them!
