*******
I was soooooo excited when I opened my box of gooooodies for this AMAZING PAIR UP!!!
Graphic45 ~ Tropical Traveloque collection
and Petaloo ~ Darjeeling flowers
I was almost overcome with ALL the BEAUTY before me!!!
I pulled out the Kraftboard Altered Art Box that I had acquired a while ago
and let the creative processes begin.......
Don't you JUST LOVE how well the two product lines compliment each other??
Darjeeling ~ Mini Mix
Darjeeling ~ Medium Mix
Darjeeling ~ Medium Leaves
Darjeeling ~ Anemone Mix
HoneySuckle Vine ~ White
Cantebury Vine Spray ~ Green
I created a 2012 calendar to go inside the box....
There are 6 months on one side.......6 on the other.
Here is a close up of one of the months.
I gave this wonderful creation to my boss, as a Christmas present.
She JUST LOVES all things beachish!!
To go with her gift, I created a Christmas card.......
Who woulda thunk......a Tropical Christmas Card??
She LOVED IT!!
Tropical Travelogue ~ Alphabet Stickers
Tropical Travelogue ~ Stickers
Tropical Travelogue ~ Chipboard Stickers
Tropical Traveloque ~ 8 x 8 paper pad
Darjeeling ~ Hydrangea
Darjeeling ~ Mini Mix
Darjeeling ~ Leave Medium
Darjeeling ~ Petites
Canterbuy Vine Spray
Honeysuckle Vine
I want to leave you with this quote.......
If it didn’t Bring you Joy
Just Leave it Behind.
Let’s Ring in the New Year
With Good Things in Mind.
Let Every Bad Memory Go
That Brought Heartache and Pain.
And Let’s Turn a New Leaf
With the Smell of New Rain.
Let’s Forget Past Mistakes
Making Amends for This Year.
Sending You These Greetings
To Bring you Hope and Cheer
Happy New Year!
Fabulous projects!!!!!!!

Wowzer!!! The calendar is amazing and the card is beautiful! I never would have thought of a card like that for Christmas but I'd be thrilled to receive one like it for any occasion. Really nice work and yes the flowers and papers look like they were made to go together! Thanks for the inspiration and the chance to win some awesome Petaloo and G45 products.
