2023-2024 Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador

“Hello dear G45ers! My name is Tanya Cloete. I live in South Africa with my husband and our fur babies. I am what you would call an avid scrapper. I am blessed to be able to spend most of my days crafting away in my little piece of heaven, my happy place. I scrapbook simply because I love it, I love making pretty things and it brings me a lot of joy. I love all types of paper crafting, but my love lies mostly in making ‘off the page’ projects. Graphic 45 papers are so unique and they inspire me to do just that. This is the number one crafting I thoroughly enjoy doing, building 3D projects and love seeing how it all comes together.

Pumpkin Carriage with a Mini Pop Up Book

#G45Expression – Enchanted Forest

By Tanya Scrap

Hello dear G45ers!

I am absolutely thrilled to be part of this amazing team again this year and so excited to share my #G45Expression project as a Graphic 45 Grand Brand Ambassador.

For our first assignment I was asked to create a ‘Self-Portrait’ project that reflects me as an artist using my favourite paper medium and go-to technique.

I present to you my love for off the page, a Pumpkin Carriage with a Mini Pop Up Book featuring the STUNNING Enchanted Forest Collector’s Edition. This collection is EVERYTHING!!!

My favourite paper medium currently is the Ivory Tags from Graphic 45. I love to use cutting dies to cut shapes from this paper. My go-to technique would be fussy cutting the amazing and beautiful imagery from the Graphic 45 papers!

Enchanted Forest Collector’s Edition 12×12 Collection Pack

Enchanted Forest Collector’s Edition 8×8 Collection Pack

Album in a Box (Ivory)

Regular Tags Ivory

Antique Brass Door Knockers

Antique Brass Door Pulls

Antique Brass Stamped Metal Brads

Matte Pearl Gems

I used the Album in a Box as the base for my project.

I created the pumpkin with a cut file on my Silhouette Cameo machine. I assembled it accordingly and glued it onto the box.

The wheels I had laser cut from wood and spray painted them white.

I used cutting dies to cut some pretty leaves, flowers and swirls from the pattern papers as well as some from the Ivory tags.

I fussy cut A LOT of the beautiful images from the collection and decorated both the Carriage and the Pop-Up book (also a cut file on the Silhouette) with them.

I adorned the rest of the project with some metal embellishments and pearl gems.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Papercrafting!”
