Graphic 45 CHA Reveals!

Hello wonderful readers!! I am so excited to share the following projects with you all.  I had the opportunity to play with Graphic 45's NEW Tropical Travelogue Collection for the CHA show and I have to say I fell in love with the gorgeous imagery, vibrant colours and vintage undertones.  They are perfect for any and all of your vacation photos!

This is a photo of my mom and I last year in Maui, Hawaii. BLISS!! Oh, how I miss the sweet, warm breeze and the smell of the ocean...

I added heaps and heaps of layers and distressing on this project as well as a very generous supply of fussy cut flowers.

I used pop dots to make the flowers appear more three dimensional and some glossy accents here and there to help bring out a few key embellishments.

These photos were taken of me on Kanapa'ali Beach (SO GORGEOUS) relaxing to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.  The colours were so amazing and matched wonderfully with this collection.

I really wanted the beautiful images and tones in these papers to be hilighted so I kept the composition quite simple by blending my photos in with a particular piece of patterend paper.

Lastly I would like to share another piece that was on display in the Graphic 45 Booth, using Olde Curiosity Shoppe.  I cannot stress enough how much in love I am with this line - unreal! If you loved the Steampunk Collection, you will freak out when you see this collection.  Just amazing!

The entire Design Team was asked to create a tag using Graphic 45 packaging and this is what I came up with.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!! See you again soon with some more CHA reveals and more yummy projects!
