Now I just want to show a few projects that were special to me in one way or another using G45 goodness! There is no way i could post them all Lol, way too many!

 

This was my set of "stacked books" using Olde Curiosity Shoppe with a splash of Steampunk. I posted a tutorial on my YT channel and this just took off, and so many fellow crafters did their version of it. Its very touching to know it was so well loved and to see it everywhere!

 

This wishing well is about 22 inches tall, and was a labor of love! It took me weeks to finish up and build it all together! It has a light mechanism so the inside lights up. The arm actually works, everything is fully functional! The keyhole on the fussy cut lady is where the light switch is at. The base was made of jenga pieces

 

 

Cards are very very hard for me to do! So I was proud of this one using Olde Curiosity Shoppe.

 

 

I loved making this Steampunk clock! Its so grungy and just fun!

 

I wanted to give my mother in law and granny really special cards this past Christmas, so I made them stocking cards. They loved them.

 



One of my most special friends daughter was in the Nutcracker play , and she had told me a story about it. I just knew I had to make her a configurations box with this range. A sweet gift for a sweet friend!
