Desk organizer tutorial with Enchanted Forest

 

Hello G45ers, Cecilia here happy to share a desk organizer tutorial created with the fantastique Enchanted Forest DCE paper collection. Because I don’t have a craft room and I use my bedroom to create I decided to make this organizer to storage all the papers, embellishments, cardstock and anything I’m using in the process of creating a new project, in that way I don’t need to look for the elements every day and when I finish I can put the leftover material in one bag to storage it in a rack. This organizer will always be at my desk to find everything quickly and easily. I really love to make my own storage boxes and you can find more ideas with tutorials in the Graphic 45 youtube channel. I hope you like this one and try it, don’t forget to tag me and tag G45 to see yours!

Here are the materials list.

Seeds and dry flowers storage album tutorial | Graphic 45 Cottage Life

 

Hello G45ers! I’m Cecilia from México and I’m so happy to be back as #G45BrandAmbassador. For my first post I made a little scrapbook that works as seeds and dry flowers storage as well and because this should be a selfie project I also made a cute little cart to place this project as a decor piece. I really love 3D projects combined with scrapbooks and I think that’s what represents my creativity. The paper collection in this case is Cottage Life but you can use the gorgeous Flower Market or Little Things as well, below you’ll find the products used here. The project is not very difficult but is divided in two videos one for the album and the second for the cart with so much tips and tricks, however in my youtube channel you’ll find complementary videos to show you how I made my fabric flowers with Graphic 45 dies and another video to learn how I made the tiny gardening tools, find at the end of this post the links. I hope that you like it and feel inspired to create! I can’t wait to see your project! Cecilia.

Graphic 45 album by request, inspiration using 5 paper collections.

Hi crafty friends!

 I made this beautiful album by request from Maryland USA, and I'm really honored with it because it was designed to keep my client's mom's loving memories, dear Janet I'm truly thankful and I enjoyed so much designing the album and imaging your mom!. It holds 80+ 4"x6" and 5"x7" pics, and the requirement was pastel colors, and space for 80+ pictures, and cards to write. To complete this album I used pastel papers from Graphic 45 paper collections:

Fairie Wings,

Once upon a springtime,

Gilded Lily,

Sweet Sentiments,

Secret Garden.

It's wonderful to mix and match 5 paper collections in one project!
