Fun with Graphic45
















If you haven't seen the newest Graphic45 papers, you really should go out and get it! Their blog has so many ideas and their booth at last summer's CHA was just so inspiring. Their paper doesn't look like paper, it has a quality of fine art and fine fabrics. Needless to say, I'm totally intrigued by the things they are doing with paper and die cuts. AMAZING!! I wanted to try my hand at cutting and collaging some of these fantastic images and mixing them with some of my vintage sewing notions. The beeswax collage was a perfect medium to showcase this paper. I love the way it turned out. The layout uses more of this paper and a few of my vintage pattern peices from a doll dress. I printed an image from Fairy Davis as my focal point and it seems as if these lovely ladies have been relative of mine forever. The handbag is G45 papers scanned and printed onto Sticky Back Canvas by Claudine Hellmuth. Love, love, love this stuff...so many possibilities. Hope you enjoy and take the time to make something for yourself with these fun papers.
