I've slowly been working on one of my oldest's baby book, not happy with the papers I have or with what I'm seeing in craft stores. Today I see exactly what I want to use!! To bad I don't have a lss and will have to wait until they are available online.

I have just been introduced to the Graphic 45 Paper line, and I must say, I am working on getting the 12x12 pad in almost all the lines. I do not do much scrapbookig, learning still. But I do mini albums, ATC's and cards. Can't wait for this new line to come out, did not catch when. I am having a problem getting some of the design pads cuz they are Out of Stock. Sure hope I can get them all before they are gone for good. TFS E1.

Wow - this paper line is gorgeous. Great job on it. My daughter's baby room 17 years ago was in Peter Rabbit. I knew I was waiting to make those scrapbook pages for a reason. Love it. I started crafting a very young age. I think my Jr. Year of highschool was when it really took flight. I was taking 3D art classes, and loved every minute of it.
