Hello my lovely friends,
Today I am here to show you my first layout as a brand ambassador for Graphic 45. I still can't believe I am on their design team. For this layout I have used a golden oldy and my favorite collection they have ever made "Olde Curiosity Shoppe"! Back in the day's and even now I am a huge fan of soft toned papers and shabby chic and vintage stuff like lace, flowers, pinks & blues. But when I won the "Olde Curiosity Shoppe" on the Grapic 45 blog I was in love right away although the colors are not really up my ally if you know what I mean.
Me at 45 {love my work}
Me at 45! {it’s a bit ambiguous} I turned 45 on march 6th & me at Graphic 45.
For this layout I used three pictures, one of me and two of my work place. I have worked as an optician since 2014 and love my job. Before that I also worked in an optic store {the same one} but I couldn’t measure eyes and I went to school to make that dream come true.
The pictures are all in frames that I made with molds and treated with paints, ink and waxes.
On the background of my layout I added the Graphic 45 “Script & Argyle Stamp” and a stencil then I stitched around the edges which is my signature on almost every layout I make.
I also used a couple of metal embellishments on my layout, some older and some newer. The black flowers are from the rose bouquet collection and are still available in the graphic 45 store. I also added a small glass bottle next to my picture with little screws & nuts in it that I use at my job on a daily basis.
In the end I added some micro beads with screws &
nuts on a couple of places throughout my layout and also some bigger pearls near or on the flower clusters. I also added a couple of butterflies which I placed on top of each other to give them more dimension.
Graphic 45 products used:
Moulds, Ink, Waxes, Stencil, Screws, Nuts, Glass bottle, Flowers, Metal pieces, Jute cord, Micro beads,
I hope you enjoyed my post & layout as much as I love creating them.
Stay happy & creative, much
