Altered Art Friday with Graphic 45
Welcome to the blog this wonderful Friday. We hope you enjoyed the Sneak Peeks! We certainly had the best time introducing our new products. Today, we have two amazing projects from Andrew Roberts and Ginger Ropp. Ginger uses the beautiful new Precious Memories collection. This will be one great Friday.
First, we have this amazing Typography metal Staples organizer from Andrew. Now that we are offering new Staples, this is a great idea for organizing in the New Year!
"I love metal hardware and findings and graphic 45 have many great choices. I decided to make myself a storage case for all the different metal staples. So now when I need a graphic 45 metal item they are all in one space. I made the measurements specific to fit the products that graphic 45 make.
Tip: If you are looking for storage for your embellishments try altering a graphic 45 mixed media box or constructing from chipboard then embellish with your favorite collection." ~Andrew

Oh!!! Love the organizer box and am going to be making something similar for my G45 Staples! Such a great idea!
Ginger's project is so sweet! This would be a great baby shower gift filled with Thank you notes for the Mom to be to send out! Add some stamps, envelopes and address labels with her address on them and she will be all set!

I didn't find graphic 45 papers until after An Abc Primer and Once upon a Springtime were retired. So excited they are returning as they are favorites. Won't be able to cut into them!

I've been looking to see where those darling little blue bows were used...were they just table embellishments? Nice paper collections. Interesting projects. Thanks!

Posted by: Judy D. | January 09, 2015 at 02:50 PM
I love seeing Andrews masculine touch on such amazing creative pieces. I'm jealous he can fill this storage piece with all those metal pieces. The coaster holder is very nicely done and I especially like to coasters.
