"The new Artist Trading Tags by Graphic 45 are so precious! They are perfect for making beautiful little artist trading cards that you can store on a binder ring. I had the fun task of making an Easter-themed ATC using Sweet Sentiments. The egg image was the most sentimental image for me, as ever since I was little, Easter eggs always made an appearance! I chose purple as a background color and little pink roses to complement the egg image in the middle. And G45’s new whitewashed metal brads are the perfect size and compliment to your ATCs!" - Maria

Love all the great inspiration. I guess I should be starting my Spring cleaning too! The storage box idea is great!
thanks.

Cute treats, gorgeous atc creation (saw 1st to arrive in UK yesterday, yay!) - it's rather more than an atc, I am sure all would agree?
The storage by Nicola is such a fun & functional idea. Mine are all in pizza boxes (how we have them sent Here). I am however going through a bit of upcycling faze so may have to do something similar. Sadly, I won't need as many as Nicola, Lol!! Tfs today :)

Fabulous projects. I use decorated shipping boxes to store my papers. I make a diagonal cut ...like the magazine holders, then I decorate with paper.

[Pam]

Great projects! Love Nichola's Snap Guide.

[Elizabeth Etheridge]

Lovely projects. I covered cardboard magazine holders on the ends with Graphic 45 papers and I keep my collection is those. I don't cover the entire holder because I don't want to use the lovely papers and once they are back on the book shelf the sides don't show.

Oh so sweet, sweet, sweet...
