Amy Tsuruta:
I’m so excited to be part of this blog hop with Graphic 45. My project features their Mixed Media 5 x 5″ Box – Kraft. All the panels of paper have been adhered using the E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser. I combined the Safari Adventure and Cityscapes paper collections. I did a bit of distressing on the edges with Ranger Tea Dye Distress Ink.
The Ornate Metal Label Holder is adhered with HomeHobby Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8” and Thin 3D Foam Squares White. Here’s the top view of my project:
I made it into a shaker box! This can be easily used to store various tea bags. The tea pot and the tea cup are on Thin 3D Foam Squares Mix White. The sequins are in-between two panels of acetate and adhered to the backside of the lid. This is a perfect gift for any tea loving friend! Click for more details: Tsuruta Designs.

Latisha Yoast:
Today I am sharing the Graphic 45 ATC Book Box that I altered with their Enchanted Forest Collection along with a few Scrapbook adhesive by 3L® products. The Sumptuous Floral sheet of paper really grabbed my attention, so I knew immediately that I wanted to use this paper on the box somewhere.
First painted the box in a metallic gold acrylic paint, adhered the pattern paper down on top of the box using E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser and along the bottom using Home Hobby Extreme Double Sided Tape 1/8″. Use the same double sided tape to adhere the Lace Ribbons trim to the bottom of the box. I accented the top of the box with a few flowers, using the lace ribbons and Dodz Adhesive Dots . These dots are very strong and permanent, so perfect for making mixed media type embellishments.
