12x12 Scrapbook Layout featuring Graphic 45's Christmas Carol!



Hello friends! 

I have a quick share today and it's just in time for the holiday season! I created this 12x12 scrapbook page of my family and I. The photo was taken a few weeks ago by the Main Street Christmas tree at Disneyland in Southern California. We love the feeling of Christmas in the park and always make it a point to visit each year when the holiday decorations go up. It's so festive, colorful and fun!

My layout features Graphic 45's Christmas Carol paper collection, which was perfect for this project. 

Here are some photos:

Altered Printers Tray & Video Tutorial




Hello friends! 

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:











Here is a video tutorial showing you the creation of this project from start to finish!

Christmas Carol Christmas cards and Tutorial!




Hello friends and happy Saturday! ♥

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! ♥

Be sure to check out the Graphic 45 blog today for more inspiration! Post your Graphic 45 projects to the Graphic 45 Facebook page, we'd LOVE to see your creations!

Have a happy crafty weekend! ♥

hugs and butterflykisses xoxo,

Arlene
