Graphic 45 Design Team 2012 Audition

I love using Graphic 45 papers.  I love the vintage look and I love how no matter what line you use you're able to go back and use one of the other lines and it will always match.  I think G45 was my first really foray into being creative.  I've been scrapbooking for ages but it wasn't until I picked up Fashionista that I really found a way to express what I wanted to say.
 This is a little accordion Steampunk album I did.


This is a circus album I did.
And a Halloween album.
Stacking wooden boxes.

An altered cigar box.
A steampunk shadow box.
I really love steampunk.  It kinda has everything I enjoy.

Fancrafts BBC Sherlock & Hawaii Five-0

Doing some fancrafting.  I bought this Hawaiian Surf sign at Goodwill then added a small shadow box to hold a  photo and maybe some shells from the beach. 
This one is based on the BBC series Sherlock.  I used a frame I got at Goodwill, some really neat scrapbook paper, an old dictionary page and a copy of Turner's painting of the Falls, some wings and letters cut out by my cricut.  I like the way it turned out.

Altered steampunk box

Had this cigar box from Goodwill and wanted to make it steampunk.  I plan to use it for holding tea!  It's the perfect size!
I used Lost& Found, Graphics 45 - Steampunk Debutante and Curtain Call and Curio because I really like their flowers - and I'm not a flowery person.  I found the knob at Michaels and tied an old key and one of Tim's cute medallions on with a ribbon.  I think it turned out pretty cute!

Working on crafts

Here are a few things I'm working on.....
I got a bit tired of putting the letters on - I cut them our with my Cricut.  But I might add a few more tube stops to it.  I like it, but it needs something.
