A 6 x 6 card using some papers from the Graphic 45 “Typography” pad. I love the many sayings in this pad and also the boldness of the colours. As with all of the Graphic 45 pads, everything always fully co-ordinates so it is very easy to layer papers to make a lovely card. I’ve added a ribbon and embellishments from Creative Expressions to finish the card. I hope you like it x

 

Pink Roses, Blue Butterflies

A 6 x 6 tent card made using the Graphic 45 “Botanical Tea” Collection. I’ve distressed it a little by roughing round the edges as this collection can be used to make both very contemporary or vintage style cards. The colours in this collection are lovely and there is a lot of different subjects within the collection to make many different types and styles of card. I added a little Stickles to the rose on the topper for a bit of sparkle. Hope you like it x

 

Make a Wish

Another gorgeous Seaside kit – this time from Graphic 45. Its called “Beside the Sea”. Although it is a very colourful collection, I wanted to focus on the blue for this card, so chose a blue mat for both the background and the topper. I love the little topper with its saying “Make a wish on a Starfish”. The whole collection goes together so well – the little shells on the background sheet to cut out, the stamps and the little toppers. I used the string and the peacock blue spiders web to give it a bit of an organic feel and am very pleased with the overall effect and how it all came together. Hope you like it too x

 

Botanical Tea

An A5 card from the gorgeous “Botanical Tea” pad from Graphic 45. I love the muted colours in this collection. The card has just been matted and layered from different pages in the collection and I’ve added some spiders web, one of the butterflies cut out, and 3 paper flowers and skeleton leaf die-cuts for added dimension x

 

Steampunk Spells

A little project from a while back. It is actually a little mirror, with a large surround to it – approx 8 inch square in total – that I turned into a wall hanging / picture using Graphic 45 “Steampunk Spells” papers. The centre piece is paper that has been cut and mounted onto chipboard and then triple embossed with UTEE for effect, and then mounted on a piece of orange card over the top of the mirror. I’ve added some cogs that are cut out of card and a little metal embellishment in the corner to finish it off x

 

Blue Couture

An 8 x 8 card using the Graphic 45 “Couture” Collection. It is an order for a friend of a friends 60th birthday this month. I know she is into all types of Fashion, so thought this collection would be ideal to use for her card. The colours are so vibrant, the quality is lovely as always, and it is so easy to work with x

 

“A Secret Garden”

A large Card – 10 x 7 inches, using the “Secret Garden” Collection which I have Decoupaged.

 

By the Sea

7 x 7 card using the lovely “By the Sea” Collection from Graphic 45. Such an easy collection to use with gorgeous colours and images. This is a simple card, just using mat and layers with a little distress ink – Chipped Saphire – on the edges. i have also added a little metal starfish embellishment which I have gikded with Mossis Dancer gilding flakes
