Graphic 45 Botanical tea number 9 ( the last… for now)

IMG_6314 (Medium)Here is the last of my Graphic 45 Botanical Tea ( for now) . For this last one I edged all my pieces with Tea Dye distress ink, did some fussy cutting, and used some yellow liquid pearls and kindyglitz to finish.Some of the flowers were 3″d with foam pads.I have spent this afternoon in the craft room planning out one of my June lessons. A different kind of lesson for that month – it will be interesting to see what the ladies think of it. I have had great fun playing with a couple of new dies from couture creations. I am heading back there in a minute to do some stamping – haven’t done much of that lately, and I am feeling creative! til tomorrow….

Graphic 45 botanical tea number 1!

IMG_6318 (Medium)I want to say right off the bat that this is not my design! I saw it on the Graphic 45 blog, and fell in love with it so it was the first card I made with the Graphic 45 Botanical Tea papers. having said that, I have changed it a little bit – on the blog it was a mini album, so I changed it to a card, added a ribbon bow in the top right hand corner, and some bling pouring out of the tea pot.Tomorrow we start with my designs! Til tomorow….

Kaisercraft Telegraph Road number 3

IMG_4522 (Medium)I bought the range of Kaisercraft Telegraph road last month, but haven’t had much spare time to create with it. I did make this one,with the 12 a 12 papers, even the band across the bottom is a piece of the paper ( looks like a ribbon doesn’t it!)and the chipboard flower was a piece lying on my desk – I think it came with some freebies on a magazine. the cardstock is some retired stampin up cardstock – that was the last piece I had, a shame really because it goes so well with this paper! til tomorrow….
