Tropical Travelogue

By
This was a great project to work on.  The colours in this paper collection by Graphic 45 are bright, vibrant and full of warmth.  I wanted my travelogue to look like a vintage log of a tropical trip and was really pleased with how it came out.  The cover is three dimensional with the vine leaves and flowers creeping through the brass door knob to give an overgrown effect and set the scene for whats inside.

Please click on the video below for the full tropical experience:-) C


Happy crafting everyone:-)

    As always, I am totally amazed with your artistic imagination. Just when I think I can do without a particular paper collection, along you come with another fabulous mini. I love all the detail and fussy cutting with this one.

    As it's January 4th here in Canada, I also wanted to extend a happy YouTube birthday to you, Clare. Here's to many more!

    Thanks for sharing
