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!

Happy hump day... grab your coffee and get your crafting on! ♥
