Gilded Lily Mini Album and Tutorial!

Hello again friends!

The New Year is upon us... what is your new year's resolution? Is it to get started on all those scrapbooking projects that never panned out because you never had the time? Well, I hope you find time to get creative this year. Graphic 45's Gilded Lily paper collection just may inspire you!

I created this mini album featuring the gorgeous Gilded Lily collection. Don't go too far because I have a video tutorial to help you build a cover for one of these albums!

First, here are more photos:

The pages in my album are inspired by the fabulous and creative Ginger Ropp. You can find her inspirational YouTube channel HERE. I love all the little pockets and folds and how much real estate these pages create for a small album!

Here is a video walk though of this album as well as a tutorial to share how I created the cover of the album.

Apologies in advance for the dark video... I switched to a new camera and still learning how to use it.

😞

Thank you for stopping by today. Be sure to stop by the Graphic 45 BLOG for more photos and inspiration from the design team!

A Christmas Card featuring Graphic 45's Christmas Carol!

Hello Friends!

I love getting into the holiday spirit by working in my craft room. I especially enjoy creating handmade cards and love the look on their faces when family and friends open up the envelope and find a special creation made just for them. Graphic 45's Christmas Carol is so much fun to work with, I adore the imagery and colors! Hope you make time this holiday to get creative. Happy crafting. :-)

Here are more photos of the card I created:

It's not too late to get started on some homemade cards. Hope I was able to inspire you to get creating! ♥

Have a fabulous holiday season and see you back here soon!
