Olde Curiosity Shoppe is back :-)

morning everyone, how are you?  I'm uber excited to see Graphic 45 are re releasing one of my all time favourite paper collections later this month. When I joined their design team back in 2012 I used it for my first design team project and went on to teach many workshop projects with it too. It's been such a huge favourite with G45ers since it made it's debue - and I know many of you will be dying to get your hands on it again.  If you're new to G45, haven't seen the collection before do call by the G45 blog on 18th Jan for the reveal.  You'll be hooked. 
We're taking pre orders for this and the other three new collections over on the website from today.  Just follow the links below to place your orders. 
I thought I'd share one of my favourite Olde Curiosity Shoppe projects made from just three of the colourways in the collection and my favourite combination; reds, black and cream. There's so much to cut out and layer up on the papers you really can bring the images to life. 

I'm mid way through my new Nature Sketchbook album and some videos to create this afternoon, so I"m going to grab some lunch and crack on lol!!!  Have a great rest of your day, thanks for calling by and look forward to catching up later in the week.

For those of you unfamiliar with our isle, Wales is full of magnificent Castles, sandy beaches, picturesque scenery and a gorgeous coastline.  I had to have a quick pit stop to see Raglan Castle. Saw my first Dragon too :-)   After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
