I promised magnets and here they are!!
Mandy Harrell aka Craftysprinkles has been our January Guest Designer this month. Earlier, before CHA, I promised that you would see these awesome magnets that she made! The suspense is over! Are they not fabulous? Why didn't I think of doing something like that?
Thank you Mandy for being our Guest Artist this month! You rock girl!
My apologies to you all for the blog being dead this past week. I was at CHA. The fact that everyone was so busy and could not do a blog post is a good thing, right? I do have a friend emailing me photos when she allowed me to borrow her camera. My camera of course died on me. Hopefully I can get some of those photos up of the Graphic 45 booth and the girls hard at work. The booth was "amazing", but that is not surprising. It has never "not" been amazing! The work that Graphic 45 does "in house" blows me away!
We all had such a good time at CHA. Five of our design team were there for the show. Graphic 45 was so kind and took us to Bubba Gumps on Tuesday night. It was great to spend time everyone.
Happy Scrapping!

Hi Susan -
Glad you all had a wonderful time at CHA! Love the magnets, I'll have to make some, they sure will be a lot prettier than what I have on my fridge now - a fish magnet.
One of the things I love to do with your papers is take some of the images, cut them out (for example: Haute Couture) cover them with Diamond Glaze or embossing powder and melt them. I then attach a pin back and you have a sweet pin.

Great project for home decor...are these sealed in any way...or just layered papers and embellishments?

Thanks ladies for all the awesome compliments you have given me over the month and thank you so much to G45 for picking me to be a guest designer. I had a blast!
To answer Julie's question... These are just layered paper and embellishments; bottlecaps, watch parts, lace, and other metal objects.

LOVE the magnets! G45 was gracious enough to supply us with the paper for our fabulous magnetic memo board make n take at the Beacon Adhesives booth. We were swamped and people literally were picking through the garbage for the G45 paper scraps.
We ran out of magnets for the boards, but now I know that was a karma thing-I can use these magnets for inspiration. Especially love the bottlecaps!
Thank so much to G45 for the lovely selection of papers-every board was so unique because of them. I can't wait to make my own so I can get pics up on the Beacon FB page (dead camera here at CHA too).
