Warm and Cozy - Mini Album - Graphic 45

Good Morning Creative Friends, welcome back to my blog.

I wanted to share one last project for 2022. This is designed using the Lets Get Cozy paper collection from Graphic 45 using their Tag and Pocket Album.

I am showing a few pages of the inside, these are in no particular order, if get time i will upload a walkthrough to my you tube channel.

page 3 and 4

page 6 and 7

page 10 and 11

page 12 and 13 is above

above is the inside front cover and first page, i added a waterfall feature with a magnetic closure and added a journal card to the top.

above is page 2 and 3, the tag on page two is a magnetic tag overlay

side view of the album closed.

This little mini is loaded! I used two full 8x8 paper packs plus a 12 x 12 solids and added in lots of tags. I also added in the Journaling Cards and used all those up throughout the album

( i have to admit i ran out of paper, i fully intended on adding tags to tuck into the side pockets) I might just do that with some cardstock.

Thank you for dropping by!

Memories Documented - Farewell to Dusty Attic

Hi Creative friends and welcome back to my blog.

I am making a few changes in my Design Team commitments heading into 2023, another one of those changes I am making is with Dusty Attic.

I have decided its time for me to say farewell, so i am sharing my last project with you for Dusty Attic.

For my final project share i am working with the Mood Board Challenge for December. This is designed on a 8x8 Canvas,

I decided to use papers from Graphic 45 Warm Wishes.

I used florals from Graphic 45 and a couple from 49 and market.

I fussy cut out those poinsettias from one of the papers in the Warm Wishes Collection.

I used the Feathers by Nuneka and colored them with prima Red Wine I also colored the Industrial clusters the same and splatter with gold paint. The industrial cluster is peeking through the shutter frame there.

The cog Border #3 is peeking out from under the shutter frame in this image, I cut off the swirl from the feather and tucked in in among the flowers.

The title is from the mini word captions and I just painted that with gold paint.

Thank you to Dusty Attic for having me the past two years.

Products Used:

Industrial Cluster #6

Cog Border #3

Nuneka Feathers

Mini Captions 3

Thank you for following me along for the past two years while i created with Dusty Attic,

Chase After Your Dreams - Farewell to 49 and Market

Hello creative friends, and welcome back to my blog today.

I hope you are celebrating with your families this Christmas Season and enjoying those special moments and making wonderful memories.

I am sharing my last project for 49 and Market. Yes, this will be my last project with 49 and Market, I designed a layout using the Serenity Collection.

Using one of the background papers for my base i added some laser cuts and ephemera

I used a Dusty Attic detailed chipboard to add a bit of interest and placed my flowers on top.

I tucked in some leaves and laser cuts to my flower collage.

and here is a full view of the layout.

thank you for following me along this past year, and hope to continue to inspire you in 2023 !

Hello creative friends and welcome back. I have a project share today for Scrap and Me. I decided to share a masculine layout using the Something Else Collection.

I decided to add some chipboard pieces to mimic the gears and masculine feel to the papers. The photo is of my son, he and i were walking down to our beach area just after getting a light falling snow

here are some detail photos

I stepped away from the holiday projects and wanted to dig into this collection.

I hope you like my project share today. Here are the papers i used today.

I cut the title from this sheet

Thank you for dropping by today.
