You need three pieces of heavy to medium weight chipboard to create the album base. Cut two pieces for the covers to…

Hello, Graphic 45 Fans! It is time to share another Graphic 45 project with you!

This chunky monkey mini is 6 1/4" x 6 1/4" x 2 1/2" in size! It is a nice, square, chubby book! I confess, I was a bit afraid of all the color and print in this paper collection. I finally had to…

The Graphic 45 World's Fair Collection is the perfect collection to use for creating a mini album. This collection has many images and sentiments that…

Ocean Blue Waterfall Album Album Details I used weight chipboard to create my cover. Next, I covered the chipboard with ivory linen cardstock and, matted the patterned paper with navy card stock.

Good Morning, Graphic 45 Fans! I have my second Graphic 45 project for June to share today! I was so excited to get started on this project, because I have not used the Bloom Collection yet, nor have I used the G45 Travel Album with Notebook Set! Let me just say that the colors in the Bloom Collection are stunning in person! I am not usually drawn to the lighter colors, but this collection is what I would call bright pastels! It is stunning - simply beautiful. If you loved the old Botanical…
