Please join me over on Graphic 45's Blog today to view a new project for September. I call it The Graphic 45 Kraft Reflections Quote Wallet. I've been wanting to use the Graphic 45 Kraft Reflections for a while now and this is the perfect project for this wonderful collection of papers! I hope you like it....
The Vintagey wallet is held closed by a latch that has been alcohol inked to match the beautiful paper from the Transatlantic collection. Chipboard Button staples have been added to the front for a dimensional effect. The front cover is layered with several papers from the collection and a timepiece added to the front for detail. The wallet opens to reveal several sized pockets for pictures, tags and quotes and held in place by a strap and buckle. The tags are topped off with a distressed and Graphic 45 adorned key tag for easy removal.

Love, love, love this project
ReplyDeleteLike it???? How about I LOVE this! I might as well just opened an ETSY account just for your corner of the world. It is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteJim, you are such a gift because you give me so many masculine ideas, and I feel like you've made a masterpiece out of those leftover papers we all have leftover that we can't part with!
ReplyDeleteJim...PLEASE give the people what they want...A TUTORIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once again great job what can I say that the prvious 22 admireers haven't said...one of the reasons I love this so much is I love quotes, I keep a book in my purse where I write them down when I find them so I won't forget. My favorite new quote is from the second Wall Street Movie where Gordon Gecko says, " I'll make you a deal, you stop telling lies about me and I won't tell the truth about you" Classic!!!! Thanks for inspiration.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!!! I NEED a place to store all the quotes I gather and this project would be perfect!! I love everything about the wallet!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow many times do you need to hear...tutorial please? LOL!!!
The moment I saw this project I wanted it! I wanted to hold it, touch all the wonderful embellishments and flip through it, taking in every design element. Beautiful job, GC! It is just too cool for words! Loved Nichol's clock too. Thanks for sharing!
