A Card and Clock from our Graphic 45 Ambassadors!
Today, our Ambassadors wow with incredible projects. We have two amazing projects from Jim, the Gentleman Crafter and Yumi Muraeda with an awesome upcycling idea using our DIY Craft Rolls. Also, there's a new blog contest this week! We're in for a treat!
First, Jim shares a great way to make a creative card with Enchanted Forest. How amazing!
"Modeled from the front entrance of Leeds Castle in Kent, England. As all of my cards, I make them out of thinner chipboard. The card is made basically into a pocket with a pull out shaped card to write your sentiment. For a little whimsy, the front door comes down with a pull of the Graphic 45 Stamped Brad to reveal a lady-in-waiting…Great card for a child, renaissance & medieval festival lovers or castle enthusiasts." ~Jim, the Gentleman Crafter

Graphic 45 Stamped Metal Brads –Bronze

That clock transformation is amazing - I am sooooooo inspired. G45 is my absolute favorite manufacturer. Can't wait for the new releases!!!!

Inspirational! I just like to thank graphic 45! I find it very difficult to get graphic 45 paper sets. EBay charges exstreamly high and even there I find it hard to get complete sets. I have checked Amazon and etsy with no luck. I have been everywhere on internet. What is the secret? I will try to win the paper. Cross my fingers. Lol. Gail
