If you buy this, you practically need NO other embellishment. Period. You cut out some cute Eiffel Towers, a sweet Mime, a dazzling film strip and ticket or two.. add a photo and call it done. Graphic 45 knows how to bring out the creativeness with ALL paper artists with their artsy papers. You will have a blast creating with this stack.
I am doing a scrapbook of my Mom's life. We lost her in January and she lived through the Depression, WWII, was on tour with my father, who was a musician before we were born. I wanted to do a special scrapbook for her..not just cutsey things, but something that reflected her time--a time where the world was going through turbulent times, and people went to the movies for their news and escape, where movie stars were born, Jazz infiltrated all music. Radio listening was the primary source of entertainment.
I wanted papers and products that reflected that time period....vintage, but not Victorian, Jazzy! I saw this collection on a You Tube and just feel in love!! My parents loved Jazz, the movies..and now I have a whole collection to build my pages around! Perfect for the Greatest Generation's scrapbooks and memoirs!
Excellent quality that I expect from Graphic 45 with no shortage on creativity! Gorgeous papers are not only a scrappers dream but any paper artist will find more things to mmake than they have time for. I added black crystals, black glitter papers, bone colored cardstock and found that Curtain Call is a paper experience all it's own! Will buy again to make sure I am never without this in my stash!
This paper has it all. One of my favorite Graphic 45 lines ever. When I first discovered it, I could not wait to go to my brother's in New York to visit Broadway. Lots of uses for this whole pack!! It has theater, movies, music, jazz, drama, romance...You willl have loads of fun using it; I promise.
The graphics are excellent. The smudged stills of Theda B, Charlie Chaplin, Tom Mix; the series of theatre tickets, the jazz age, the Moulin Rouge, the flappers and full bands of the early 30's. These pages will accent the family scrapbook, if I can bear to part with them.
From layouts for anyone seriously in the performing arts to those first "concerts" put on by our wee ones starting school, the ideas flow at each turn of the page. Time!...I need more time...and money:-)
Rich cardstock, great neutral black and ivory color scheme, circa 1920-1940 style art! Any afficianado of old films and movie star style art would love this magical blend of nostalgia and design. Yum!
These papers are so beautiful I have a hard time using them.. lol! I want to hoard them but once a project is done I always love the results.
I love this collection! It's awesome for vintage work, you'll love to play around with inking and adding color to these papers!!!
Used in this project: Valentino ~~Graphic 45~~
