My project today is a banner I created for this Thanksgiving featuring Graphic 45's Steampunk Debutante DCE and French Country paper collections. Each year, I'm thankful for the love of family, the support of friends and for my health and happiness! I created a "Grateful" banner to represent things I'm thankful for this season and always. :-)

Today I want to share a Photo Portfolio I created featuring one of Graphic 45's newest paper collections, World's Fair. This portfolio is not only fun, but it's functional! It fits over 40 full-sized photos and it's perfect to display on the shelf or in your family room. ♥
Here are some photos of the portfolio I created. It's filled with pictures from our family trip to Florida this past February. Don't go far because I have a video AND a Snapguide tutorial to help you create a photo portfolio of your own!
Here is the video where I walk you through the details of the Photo Portfolio:
And finally, here is the Snapguide tutorial to help you create a photo portfolio of your own!
Today I have an altered printers tray to share with you, featuring Graphic 45's Rare Oddities paper collection. It's the perfect collection for your Fall and Halloween crafting projects this season!
We had an opportunity to play with the Art-C Groove Tool this month, which I used on this project to distress the printer's tray, ink the papers and sand the chipboard pieces. What an amazing little gadget! If you are not familiar with the Groove Tool, be sure to check out my video tutorial linked below. ♥
First let me share some photos with you:

I'm here today to share my Inspiration Wednesday project for La La Land Crafts.
This week's theme is:
Something for the Girls
I created this 12x12 Scrapbook page of me and my Mom, featuring some of the AMAZING dies from the La La Land Crafts shop. The dies are so versatile and can be used on just about any project from cards, scrapbook pages to altered art!
Here are more pictures of the scrapbook page I created for this week's challenge:

Run and grab your crafting supplies and a cup of coffee. I hope today's post inspires you to get started early on your handmade Christmas cards this year!
My cards feature Graphic 45's new Christmas Carol paper collection. This collection takes me back in time to my childhood days when A Christmas Carol would be playing all day long on the television, with the smell of warm apple pie in the oven and the crinkling of gift wrap from annual Christmas gift wrapping sessions with Mom.
Here are some pictures of the cards I created. And don't go too far, I have a video tutorial for one of the cards linked below! :-)
Here is the video tutorial to help get you kicked into gear to create some Christmas cards! ♥
