Graphic 45 - Dreamland Cards

Hi everyone!!

Dropping by for a quick post today to share a couple of cards I created with the new Graphic 45 collection called Dreamland. It is a beautiful collection full of amazing images and bright fun colours.

'Dreamland Cards'

Graphic 45 have newly released Die Cut Assortment sets to go with their new collections. I love them because they make for quick and easy projects. Both cards were created mainly by using the Dreamland set.

The pieces were simply layered to create cards full of details and dimension. I added some cotton thread on this card to give some moon beams. To add extra colour to the cards I used the Dreamland 12x12 Patterns and Solids papers.

I added a few rhinestones to give the cards a little extra bling.

Happy Mothers Day to all of the lovely mums that drop by my little blog. Today I am sharing a Card Tag I created for Prima for Mothers Day.

'MUM'

Very pink, very pretty and very feminine.

Graphic 45 - A Ladies Diary Card

Hello!

Fussy cutting has always been a massive part of my G45 creations I love to create lots of dimension from layers and fussy cutting allows me to do this. The papers are always full of amazing images that are perfect for fussy cutting. So today I am sharing a card and a tutorial created with one of my all time favourite collections A Ladies Diary.

'Timeless'

Very pretty, very feminine and perfect for giving to that special female in our lives...maybe for Mothers Day.

As an added feature to the card I added a G45 Metal Label Holder to the front of the card.

This is a TUTORIAL for this card. To view it simply click the TUTORIAL Tab at the top of my blog.

Graphic 45 - Card Gift Tag

Hi Peeps!

Sharing my cute little tag gift card today. I love the Graphic 45 Tag staples range, I find that they can be put together to create the base for a project that is sure to be an eyecatcher. For this project I chose to create with the super cute Kraft ATC tags range.

'Card Gift Tag'

I created my own paper flowers using the Raining Cats & Dogs collection flowers as a template. I then fussy cut the butterflies for the Botanicabella and Steampunk Debutante collections.

I attached a chain and some Steampunk Debutante chipboard for extra trimming. This card has room for a special message inside but doubles as a gift naming tag on the back.

There is a tutorial available on Snapguide for how this gift card tag was created.

Graphic 45 - Pull Out Tag Card

Howdy!

Dropping in today to share a card I created using the gorgeous A Ladies Diary Collection.

'Thanks'

I created lots of fussy cut details to my card.

I love the new range of Graphic 45 tag staples and I thought I would create a pull out tag card with them and incorporate a thanks ATC sentiment tag as the pull out for the inside of the card. This card was super easy to make and the ATC mini tag even allows space for your own special message.

Graphic 45 - Dimensional Easter Card

Hi Peeps!

As you know Easter is fast approaching so I decided to start a little early. I simply love how well Graphic 45 collections mix and match. The super cute rabbit and flower images from Once Upon A Springtime and the gorgeous soft colours of the Precious Memories collection are a match made in heaven. They blended together perfectly to create my Easter card with a difference.

'Easter Greetings'

Seriously how cute is it?

It is in the shape of an egg and once it's cracked open so to speak there will be a wonderful Easter message on the inside.

Lots of lovely layers :)

I have created a tutorial for this it can be found here.

Christmas Carol - Tag Gift Card

Howdy!!

Sharing a gift card tag created for Graphic 45 using the gorgeous new Christmas Carol collection. I don't usually enjoy creating Christmas themed projects but I couldn't wait to start to play with this collection.

'Merry Christmas'

As our family are all growing older they are getting harder to buy gifts for and I find myself more and more turning to gift cards as a gift, so this is where my idea come into play. I created a card with a gift card holder inside and I also have a step by step so you can use any of your favourite papers to make this for any theme you wish.

A place has been left to write your greeting or well wishes.

A layered gift card holder attached to the inside front cover of the card. This can be customised to the theme of your choice using your favourite collection.

I have added an extra special touch to the fold just to make it extra special.
