My blog friend, Janis, finally convinced me to dig out my hoard of Graphic45 papers and embellishments and actually use them instead of letting them gather dust. As I turned 70 this year, it became pretty clear that I should start enjoying my craft supplies now, instead of leaving them for my children to toss out! This collection is an older one called The Twelve Days of Christmas, and I combined it with a stamped background, a Spellbinders fancy label die, and a flower die by Sizzix. A few pearl embellishments gives this an extra bit of elegance, don't you think?
The problem with using my Graphic45 papers though, is that now I find myself wanting even MORE of it. And so I try to stop myself from browsing online websites and content myself with drooling over the images instead.

Color Dare #503. I used the squares for red, ivy, avocado and flowers
Yay!! You've been doing a lot with your G45 lately and they all look gorgeous!! I love the stamped music background and the shimmery pearls with these lovely Twelve Days pieces! Just beautiful.
