What I did with Graphic 45's "Season to Celebrate" Paper Collection!

Good morning!  I have a new tutorial for you.  I decided to list all of my videos for this paper collection so that you can see all of the fun things I have done with it. 

These are design team projects for Country Craft Creations, and I'm using the gorgeous collection by Graphic 45 called "Season to Celebrate".  I hope you like them!

The first one is my latest project I just shared today.  I used leftover paper and scraps to make these stunning tags that you can use on their own or add to the previous project I just made.


Below is the first project I made and it is a big one, and sooooooo wonderful.  It is a yearly folio project with a box to store the folios.  You can add your memories throughout the year!


The video below is a full walk through of the folio and box project I made.


I also put this link to the design team package haul video I did, just in case you want to see that too.  



I have a list of the supplies I used.  Please check out Country Craft Creations and get all of your supplies for this and more!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

 Oh my!  Can you believe it's 2025?  I can't.  Time is flying by and the holidays were a blur.  Between work, being sick, the holidays, and prepping/participating in a Country Craft Creations New Year's Eve Hop...all of the sudden its January!  WOW!  I hope you all have had a great holiday and are renewed and refreshed for the new year and all of the fabulous things to come.

I am going to link a lot of things for you today.  Yes, I'm doing another catch up post.  I am hoping this will be the only one I do this year!  

First, I would like to share the latest Country Craft Creations New Years Eve Crop that we did.  

There were so many fabulous projects, I had so much fun with them.  I am still working on the projects and will share them as I complete them.  I have a full play list for this event and you can find it here.  

I have done some other videos...here they are...


This alubum is so cute and it really used up a lot of scraps from the paper collection I have been using up all year in my #craftygoals2024 card making project.  I love what Debbie of Project39 Mini Albums did with it.  


It is that time of the year...What kind of planner set up did you come up with?  I found my dream planner with Magic Witch Souvenirs printables.  She is on Etsy, and the printables are FABULOUS!


And who doesn't love a quick and fun one page wonder?  Check out what I made with Crafty by Toni's Inspiration


And, as you all know, I love me a good repurposing...So I decided to repurpose a calendar into a new notebook and try out my new We R Makers stack cutter.  That cutter is amazing!!!  


I did the last of the 2024 #craftygoals2024 videos recapping December...and introduced a new collaboration, which is really a morphing of the old one.  Welcome to the Paper Stash Smash Collaboration!  You have to check this one out.  It is an awesome concept and I am so excited to be a part of it.


Finally, this is my latest design team tutorial for Country Craft Creations.  I made this folio project that will be a year round joy for years to come.  I used the Graphic 45 collection "Season to Celebrate" and it turned out just amazing.  There are a ton of links in the video description and also a link to a cut guide to assist you with your project.  I do hope you enjoy it!

That's  the catch up.  Thanks for reading and watching, and I am excited to see what 2025 brings to all of us.  

Stay happy, stay healthy and stay crafty.
