An ABC Primer

How exciting it is that Graphic 45 released this paper collection again as a Deluxe Collector's Edition because I did not get this collection the first time around.  I'm so happy to have it in my hoarded G45 stash now!

Graphic 45's March challenge is to create a project inspired by love.  This layout was certainly inspired by love, it is a photo of the dearest person in the world to me, my Mom, when she was around 10 years old, say 1932.   I love the look of these old vintage photos!

I made the flowers with a Paper Artist Bodacious Blooms die and then I used McGill's starburst die to create the centers.  I used Core'dinations Graphic 45 Tuscan Sun cardstock and stamped it with a script stamp before fashioning my blooms.

The pretty chipboard corners are from Leaky Shed Studios.  I've heat embossed them with Stampedous Aged Gold embossing powder; it's one of my go to products for altering chipboard.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, I apprecite it more than you'll ever know!
