Hey Ya's! Hope you all are doing very well and enjoying your days!
It is so hot here .. we've already reached up to 114 degrees Fahrenheit .. ugh! And it's times like these that I wish we had a pool in our own back yard or wish we were back home in Hawaii for a visit! ;)
A couple months or so ago, I fell in love with Graphic 45 things. I mean, I've ALWAYS loved G45, but this time I fell hard. Like .. super hard where I felt like I wanted every single piece of product that they have. LOL! What's new about being a crafter right?!
So one of the papers that I bought was the "By the Sea" collection and here's a couple things I played with for the very first time with Graphic 45:
My very first was this tag which I had fun making:
And then this card:
I have grown to love fussy cutting .. thank you ladies for inspiring me!
There's just something about G45 that makes everything feel so ..... beautifully vintage. I know this is not my "normal" style .. but gosh .. thank you so much to the lovely and talented girls Arlene and Tanya for having me fall in love with G45!!!
And thank YOU for visiting my blog ... I wish you a most wonderful day!!
Hugs,
Elise

WOW! These are stunning Elise. Your designs using those gorgeous G45 papers are amazing, your fussy cutting is wonderful and I love the fund sea-side scene you have created.
Oh my goodness, take care in the heat, it must be really uncomfortable.
Big hugs, Sue xx
Two sunny cards, beautiful!!!
Hugsss, Gaby
Oh WOW WOW WOW! It may not be your normal style, lovely lady, but WOWWWWWWWW - that's the noise I made when I saw these wonderfully vintage creations!! They took my breath away truly...... you do vintage so very, very well!
I'm a little bit addicted to fussy cutting too...... I go into my own little world, with my Martha Steward scissors in my hand!
Hope the heat has calmed down a little for you - it's warming up here and we're expecting about 33 deg C this week.. (about 91 F) and that's the hottest it's been since 2006! Trouble is, we get the humidity with it too..... and no air con unless I go sit in my car!!
Big hugs - have a fabulous week!

Hi Elise...what super vintage creations.......love your fussy cutting! Makes me think of holidays..definitely! Sounds very hot with you.....struggling to reach 70 F here! xx
That is a real beauty Elise! Love your work dear!
Hugs Kristel
Woo-hoo Elise! You sure pulled off one heck of a awesome tag and a beautiful card. Both are vintage to the max and you've got so much going with with the sea theme from sentiment to "postage" stamps to shells, etc. that pulls your theme together so well. OMG, it was super HOT in Hawaii yesterday too. Maui hit 92 degrees F. 114 in Vegas??? OMG, WOW that IS hot. Hope it's cooler today. Have a wonderful week!
Wow these are wonderful such fabulous papers and designs I must take a look These are just such perfect designs Love and hugs Carole x
Hi Elise, I am just back from my holiday! I have finished the washing and ironing today and now need another holiday!! It has been hot here today. Not as hot as you have it, but very humid.
Your tag is so pretty and the card is a huge'WOW'card!!
The vintage images are fabulous and love the soft textures. Even the inside is stunning. You are an amazing designer Elise. Perfect cutting out of course!
Just having a quick look around the blogs I follow, then off to bed. Big hugs, Carol S.xx
I can see why you love Graphic 45 Elise. Fabulous papers and love the fussy cutting.
I don't thing you should be thanking Arlene and Tanya - they are clearly costing you money!!! Lol. We all know though that resistance is futile when it comes to crafting.
Have a lovely week.
Hugs Sharon. x
