Seaside and Sunshine: More Summer Crafts From Our Design Team
Hello Crafters,
Welcome to wonderful day of crafting here at Graphic 45! We are so glad you are joining us for today's inspired creations. We have more warm summer fun projects from our design team to share with you. Don't forget to post your fun summer creations on our Facebook page this week for your chance to win a super prize! This first craft was created by the amazing Laura Denison. She used Transatlantique and beautiful Core'dinations/Graphic 45 Timeless sandable cardstock to create the exterior for this amazing backgammon suitcase. This project is so stunning and inventive. Check out the amazing detail and symmetry on the inside of the suitcase. It's just astonishing!
Supplies:
"There is no denying it, summer has finally arrived. From cookouts to pool parties and trips to the beach. It is a time for celebration! And what better way to celebrate then to send out some yummy G45 On the Boardwalk inspired cards to friends or family. What I love most about creating with G45 papers are the possibilities for creating scenes, or moments by just layering a few images. Die Cut a shape out of your card front, use the negative and instant shadowbox effect. So Fun!" -Nicole Eccles
Thank you all so much for joining us today. Huge thanks to Laura Denison and Nicole Eccles for their amazing projects today. We hope you are all enjoying this week's craft theme as much as we are. Join us tomorrow for more splendid ideas.
Happy Papercrafting!
Team Graphic 45

The game board is amazing!

WOW!!! Laura hit this one out of the park!!! I haven't played backgammon in years!!! It was a staple in our home when my DH was a private in the Army. We couldn't afford to do much but play games at home. LOL
Nicloe's project reminds me of childhood summers at Myrtle Beach. That paper is SO what Myrtle Beach was like back then.
Good work Girls!!!
