Hello G45ers!
Get ready to spring into creativity with a project that takes papercrafting to the next level—literally. Today on the blog, we’re sharing a brand-new addition to our #G45LeveledUp series featuring a stunning mini album tutorial by Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador Anastasiia Tysevych. Inspired by a previous Graphic 45 tutorial from the talented Creatively Michelle, Anastasiia took the blueprint and let it blossom into something uniquely her own using our Spring is in the Air paper collection and Chipboard Sheets. Think cheerful bunnies, fresh florals, juicy pinks, and a palette so bright it’ll give your craft desk a glow-up! Plus, she filmed a step-by-step video tutorial (complete with a fun little crafting hiccup and clever fix!) so you can create along at home. Trust us—you do not want to miss this one.
Leveled Up Mini Album
Tutorial by Anastasiia Tysevych
“Hello, friends!
We draw inspiration from everything that surrounds us—what we see, what we feel. This time, I was inspired by a mini album created by the talented Creatively Michelle and I decided to level it up to make it my own. The original size was 5″x4″, but mine is slightly larger—6″x5″ (you’ll find all the measurements and details below).
I made it using the incredibly bright and beautiful spring collection Spring is in the Air featuring Graphic 45. It’s absolutely impossible not to fall in love with those cheerful bunnies, the juicy pinks, greens, and blues, and those gorgeous flowers!
I also filmed a video tutorial for you, where I walk you through the entire process of creating this mini album. And—spoiler alert!—a little crafting disaster happened along the way, but I’ll show you how I managed to fix it (so watch closely).
Wishing you a warm and inspiring spring with the lovely Graphic 45!” ~Anastasiia
