Step it up with Graphic 45 and a Tutorial

Today I've got two cards for you using Graphic 45's yummy new collections Gilded Lily and Artisans Style.  I've even created a video tutorial to show you how you can make your own step cards. 

 

 

 

 

Then I created this second card using the Artisans Style and to show you the variety you can get with the type of card. 

 

Be sure to head over to Graphic 45's blog and see more information about this project and so much more from the rest of the talented design team.

Create with Hampton Art and Graphic 45

Today's card is one I created for Hampton Art using their Graphic 45 stamps from the Artisans Style Collection.  This is such a beautiful collection with the Arts and Crafts designs. 

I just love all the layers of this card.  I think it's just beautiful. 

Wake Up Sleepy Head with Graphic 45

 

OK so maybe this clock wouldn't really wake you up but it sure would be nice to wake up to...it's so beautiful.  I have a confession with this piece, I've had this alarm clock that I bought at Hobby Lobby a year or two ago and have been hoarding it...I know shame, shame.  The really funny part about this is it was a working alarm clock...I waiting so long that now some craft companies actually sell shells of alarm clock cheaper than what I paid and ready to use/ verses me having to destroy and paint, LOL.  That just goes to show sometimes it's not such a great idea to hoard things away.

 

I used the beautiful new collection Artisans Style from Graphic 45 to adorn my clock and I just love the colors and the motifs...stunning. 

 

Take a closer look at my work.

 

 

 

 

 

 Also today on Graphic 45's blog is Ginger's amazing journal she created plus a video...so don't miss it.  See you soon and happy crafting.

Hampton Art and Graphic 45 Go So Well Together

I love the way Hampton Art Stamps and Graphic 45 always seem to go hand in hand.  This is from the latest collection from Graphic 45 " Artisan Style " .  This is so my collection as I've been in love with the Arts and Crafts Style for years.  In fact they have a huge show/conference every year at Grove Park Inn in Asheville where I live that educates and celebrates that time period and style....it's wonderful.  Graphic 45 has of course captured it with this collection...it's stunning.  The stamped flowers and sentiment are from Hampton Art and they blend beautifully together.  You're going to have to get your hands on some of these goodies, for sure.
