Graphic 45 Blew us Away at CHA!
Altered Art/ Paper Crafting, Just for Fun!, Store News and EventsAs exciting as the entire CHA experience was, Tiffany and I agree that we were blown away by Graphic 45′s presentation. Not only do we love all of their papers, (and now they have some awesome embellishments too) their booth was a step right onto their artwork and into their paper! Inside their booth structure, you felt like Alice in Wonderland, with the Hallowe’en twist!
This illuminated clock tower rose above the convention floor making it easy for Tiffany and I to return to the booth over and over for another look!
The display was so full of interest and creativity we had to keep coming back, it was a sensory overload on top of a sensory overload from just being at CHA. The Graphic 45 team was dressed the part and they were very appreciative of our business and our praises.
Here is a glimpse at how fun Graphic 45 was to visit! The victorian dressed woman is the artist herself!
We ordered the “Hallowe’en in Wonderland’ and the “Steampunk Debutante” line at CHA and it is shipping on Monday!! I don’t think it will stick around too long either… it is such interesting paper just to have and look at, let alone, cut it up! We did order some of their new Graphic 45 Staples (embellishments) to try as well. These embellishments coordinate with all of their paper lines. We ordered paper flowers and paper buttons.
Here is a hutch all decked out in Hallowe'en in wonderland... so much to see, so little time!
Graphic 45′s display gave Tiffany and I some great ideas for classes and for the store in general… you will see some of these ideas taking shape right away!
We will let everyone know as soon as the new Graphic 45 arrives!

I’m so excited to see this line. The folks at the booth look like a cross between Harry Potter and a Tim Burton Film. The paper and embellies must be gorgeous.
