Boxed Mini Album Using Graphic 45 Raining Cats and Dogs

HI all! I have a Graphic 45's Team Project to share using Raining Cats and Dogs. I have used the Mixed Media Box to make it into a boxed Mini Album and I love how it turned out!

When I first saw the Raining Cats and Dogs Collection, I immediately thought of my good friend who loves animals so much she became a Vegan! I knew I wanted to make her a mini album to house the special photos of her with her fur babies, so I altered a Mixed Media Box to turn it into an all-in-one Boxed Mini Album.

Tip: For each album page, try focusing on two main colors with a pop of a third color to ensure a cohesive look that is not too busy and enhances the focus on the photo.

I have a Video Walk-through of the Album and TONS of photos. At the bottom, I put together a list of everything I used to create this mini!

Graphic 45 Precious Memories Baby Girl Mini Album

Hi all! Thanks so much for stopping by today! I have a mini album to share with you all as my debut project for the Graphic 45 Design Team!!! I still can't believe I made the team. I am so honored and excited with all the projects I will be creating throughout the year. I hope you will follow me and find inspiration along the way :)
I have made a girly baby album with my sister-in-law in mind using Precious Memories by Graphic 45. I love the compact size of a mini album, but I want to fit as many photos as possible and I know with a new baby, my sister-in-law will be snapping photos like crazy! A great way to allow for maximum photos is to use waterfalls. I based this mini album on lots of waterfall flaps and variations of the typical waterfall. I have used my favorite technique to hide the hinge for a clean look that will show off the gorgeous design paper and baby photos. Below I have photos and a video walk-through, as well as a Snapguide tutorial for the hidden hinge waterfall and fun variations to try in your next mini! I will list all the supplies at the end of the post.
So, here is the baby girl mini I made for my sister-in-law who is expecting a baby girl.  Hopefully, she won't see it on social media before I can give it to her!!  Here's the video link to see every page and interactive detail: G45 Baby Girl Mini Album Video

Check out my Snapguide tutorial to jazz up your next album :)

Graphic 45 Home Sweet Home Oven Recipe Box

Hi, all! I wanted to do a quick post dedicated to my oven recipe box because I FINALLY, after weeks of videotaping and editing, have a tutorial available!! I have kits as well to purchase for anyone interested.
Graphic 45's Home Sweet Home is absolutely perfect for my recipe box and gives it such an elegant country feel. I love the little knobs for my feet and that I have a secret compartment for my pen. Never again to I have to search for something to write with when I want to make recipe adjustments!
Here are some photos of my Recipe Box if you missed it and also a video to see it in action, as well as the recipe box using a more retro paper, Homemade with Love by Carta Bella.
