Portrait of a Lady and Me

 Hi there! Welcome to my blog! Thank you for stopping by! Today I will be showing you a layout using Graphic 45's Portrait of a Lady. This one threw me for a loop many times. I think the finished product was the fourth design.  Here are the sneaks:

Supplies needed are as follows:

butterfly punch (mine was an old Martha Stewart punch)

flowers (I used some old spellbinder dies, sorry I don't have the number)

half pearls for flower centers

doily die

border punch (any will do)

lace

burlap

Graphic 45 Portrait of a Lady 12 x 12 collection

Graphic 45 Portrait of a Lady 8 x8 collection

Graphic 45 Portrait of a Lady chipboard set

Graphic 45 Color Core cardstock 9which I used to make the doily)

clock

Now for the layout:

The layout is called "Me", and yes that is my chubby little face. Again thank you for stopping by! Happy Scrapping!

It's Christmas in July

 Today I have a Christmas layout to share with you because it's Christmas in July! For this layout I used the the Christmas Carol collection by Graphic 45. Its a pretty basic layout. Nothing too complicated except for the liquid pearls. Speaking of the liquid pearls, since it has been so long since I scrapped, they did not come out the way I would have liked. They are old so I get what I get. Well on to the sneak peeks.

As you can see I did use the Chipboard set from the collection. Actually I bought everything in the collection because I am a Christmas lover, and A Christmas Carol is my favorite Christmas movie! As always there is some punching. I love punches. I could never have enough. This punch is the snowflake punch from Martha Stewart. Last but not least I used the Foliage die set from Spellbinder's. Now for the layout.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek! Until next time, happy scrapping!

Flapper Fancy with G45

Hello! I am back after an extremely long hiatus. Life got in the way, but I am scrapping again! I changed my blog, so everything feels new again. So today I have a layout to share using Graphic 45's Portrait of a Lady collection. Oh my, do I love these exquisite papers! They flow so nicely that I don't think you could go wrong. They are an old collection but if you can find it, grab it! I give credit for the design to Amarylis Doria. It is one of her old sketches. Now how about some sneak peeks first.

For the tails, I cut 1 1/2 inch and 1 inch strips. I folded them and cut at an angle. For the flowers and leaves, I used Spellbinder dies. I will list the numbers below. And all the punches except the scallops were from the Martha Stewart line. Here is the layout:

I just love how it turned out! Now here are the numbers for the Spellbinder dies:

Foliage s4-328

Flowers s5-050
