Hi! Your desings are amazing. I live in Turkey and unfortunately there isn't too much people interested in scrapbooking here. So it's difficult to find scrapbooking supplies. Graphic 45 papers are mostly used for decoupage. Love from Turkey...

I was chuckling when I read about H, and the 'more time on your hands than you know what to do with' - I have the opposite scenario 'more things to do than time to do them in' ha ha, but I wouldn't like to go back to school days (even though I loved them) ha ha.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Hi Patricia, I'm running so behind on replying to my messages so huge apologies. H is now settled in at school with no spare time. I'm the same as you no time and too much to do. I did catch him making a card a couple of eves ago. He was sitting in my craft area with inks, punches, paper, stamps and card all around him, and I was amazed at what he made. It was really lovely and well received by his friend I think. Hope you're well and having a good week. Good luck in the In it to win it Draw tomorrow. Bw Clare

DeleteYou are an inspiration... I have been ruminating about a way to reach more people in a constructive creating environment and you have actually done it! Kudos, Clare!! There is so much food for thought in your plan to reach out to fellow paper crafters. Your projects have always been an inspiration for me; so filled with detail and yet tidy and crisp looking. Graphic 45 is so lucky to have you as part of their team! If I didn't live in the U.S., I'd be shopping with you for their products... Best wishes for your future endeavors!!

DeleteHi Clare I'm quite new to paper crafting but have done all sorts of other crafts for as long as I can remember. I am just so inspired by your creations and have learned so much from your video tutorials. Having only just recently discovered Graphic 45 I am now totally addicted to them!!! The papers are gorgeous and fantastic to work with. Wishing you much success with your new online venture.

I do love this G 45 paper and just purchased a bunch to a project. Your artistic and clever ideas really help me improve having been a paper crafter only a year since retiring. I would love to win this grouping. Thank you for all your creative videos. Carol
ReplyDeleteHi Clare. I was so sorry I missed meeting you last November at the N.E.C. Birmingham as it is the only reason I went there. I absolutely love your work, but am so in awe of it I felt if I could just talk to you, I could understand a little more of what you do. I think you could make something wonderful out of a ping pong ball!!! You and Graphic 45 are a marriage made in heaven and I'll keep following your blog. Many thanks for all you show us. I do hope you place me in the 'in it to win it' pocket.
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes,
Kate
