It’s Audition Time!
Here are my audition pieces for Graphic 45 Design Team Audition 2016. I am sharing a few new projects, a couple of prior projects and a brand new Snapguide. Of course, I had to add projects using the new Graphic 45 collections. Love them all.
My first project are 3 light boxes attached together by a chain using “Voyage Beneath the Sea” paper collection. I love the steampunk elements in this paper. So I added quite a few gears to this project. The boxes measure 5 x 5 1/2″ and I used Cherry Lynn Designs “Seahorse Family” die for the seahorse.
“Lighted Voyage”
Additional pictures where the boxes aren’t turned on.
This next project is an accordion mini album with pockets measuring 7 1/2 x 5 1/2″ and the pages measure 6 1/2 x 4 1/2″. Graphic 45 “Enchanted Forest” paper collection was used for this project. I made a Snapguide tutorial for this mini album (link below).

My third project uses Graphic 45 “CityScapes” paper collection. I made lighted boxes again, but this time they are for sitting on the table and not hanging. I used Tim Holtz Sizzix die Fleur De Lis and Eiffel Tower. I also used Graphic 45 Claw Feet. The Eiffel Tower box measures 5 x 8″ and the Fleur De Lis boxes measure 3 1/2 x 4″.
“Moonlit Travels”
Lastly are a couple of prior projects that I did this year. I have linked the original post with each project if you wish to view more pictures and the YouTube links.
This project uses Graphic 45 “World Fair” paper collections and the medium ivory tags.
