Hello G45ers!
Welcome to another sunny day at Graphic 45! We have waves of inspiration for you today as we bring you more delightful Tropical Travelogue crafts from our design team! It's going to be so much fun! This week is all about our joyful new collection Tropical Travelogue. Our design team has been hard at work creating inspiring new crafts that are guaranteed to make you smile! Today we have a stunning and fun layout by Melanie Forbes and a gorgeous altered Metal Film Canister and mini album by Robin Shakoor! If you are in need of some warmth and cheer then you've come to the right place! So lets get to it!
This first vibrant creation was made by Melanie Forbes. You can see how beautifully Tropical Travelogue papers blend together in this sunny LO! Melanie used paper distressing and some stunning embellishments to create this wonderful piece. It's like stepping into a beautiful island scene! Here is what Melanie had to say about this fabulous LO!
"Bali Bemo’s – I am yet to work up the courage to drive one of these on the roads in Bali!! My co-ordination is not the best hehe.. Hubby was off to the beach for drinks for his birthday but got caught in a police sting……and fined 300000 rupees for nothing…. We later found out the “tourist”fine should have been around 50000 rupees – ripped off! Lol But that is Bali!" -Melanie Forbes
Supplies:
Tropical Travellogue – Garden Isle, Tropical Travellogue, Seaside Holiday, Cardstock stickers Staples - Envleopes Coredinations Timeless collection Graphic 45 Black Magic Clocks May Arts Ribbon Twiddleybitz Fern and leaves Making memories paint Tim Holtz paper rosette die
Next we have this gorgeous altered Metal Film Canister by Robin Shakoor. The colors in this piece are so stunning! You can see how Robin used contrasting patterns and textures to bring this marvelous creation to life! There is something precious on every page of the beautiful mini album! Our fabulous Metal Film Canister comes with its own lovely accordion-fold mini album! It is so much fun to create a treasure of your very own with this wonderful Metal Film Canister! Mix and match some exquisite Tropical Travelogue paper, add some pretty embellishments and have fun! Robin's creation is so inspiring and it shows just how beautiful your crafts can be with the right mix of pretty Graphic 45 papers and imagination! Behold this beautiful tin that Robin has appropriately titled "Island Escape."
