#Simply G45 - Love Banner

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm up on Graphic 45's blog sharing with you my #Simply G45 Love Banner which features the Place In Time Deluxe Collectors Edition along with the Alpha Banners from the Staples Collection. I have a few photos to share with you on my blog, but if you haven't stopped by Graphic 45's blog yet, make sure you do so that you can check out the rest of the photos of my project as well as Aneta's beautiful project.

Tip: Don't be afraid to combine two different colours of ATC tags to create your banner.

For a full tutorial on how I created my Love Banner, more photos and Aneta's beautiful project, make sure to stop by Graphic 45's blog.

A True Lady Gift Box

Today I'm excited to share with you my A True Lady Gift Box that's up on the Graphic 45 blog which features a variety of Staples and Portrait of a Lady collection. My gift box is perfect to put that special gift in to give to that special woman in your life for either Mother's Day or a Birthday. You'll want to make sure to head over to Graphic 45's blog to check out the rest of the photos of my project as well as check out Magda's fabulous project.

Our challenge this month with Graphic 45 was to upcycle something that you may throw out. Upcycling has become a big trend now and it allows you to transform an old piece you may throw out into something beautiful. I hope you enjoy all the photos and are inspired to choose a piece to upcycle at home.

Here's how my gift box started.

Tip: If your box is tight when closing and opening it, adhere washi tape in the corners to help prevent ruining the corners of the patterned paper.

Tip: Add claw feet to the bottom of the box to give it some extra character.

These are just a few of the photos from my A True Lady Gift Box. To see more pictures of my upcycled box, you'll want to head over to Graphic 45's blog.

Supplies Used:

- Portrait of a Lady 12x12 papers: Isabella, Josephine, Elizabeth, Alexandra, Victoria and Blanche
