Transatlantique
In my last post I mentioned that I had made an additional Wall-Hanging using G45 papers. I love the new Graphic 45 Transatlantique paper, it’s very fun to play with.
I love how the paper reminds me of my travels.
One of the best vacations I ever took was when I traveled through Europe. I was traveling with my best friend, Laura. Laura and I met up with a group that my Great Aunt Janice headed. It was long before I was married, before I had kids. I actually turned 18 in Paris! What a birthday!
It’s been a long while since that trip but I can recall it like it was yesterday.
The Eiffel Tower is the theme on several of the prints in the Transatlantique line. I think it’s my favorite of the three new lines that Diane Schultz designed.
Sometimes I find paper that inspires me so much, I’ll plan a family outing just so that I can scrapbook with it. Silly maybe but my family always has fun!
Here’s a look at the Transatlantique Wall-Hanging that I made:
Do you ever feel inspired by paper? Do you plan trips or outings just so that you can scrapbook them?

I don’t plan trips for use of paper…but while I am snapping the photos I do think about what paper will go with the photo! Great posting Christie! You always get me thinking about what I could do different or better! Thanks!

I never used to get inspired just by the paper, but I have tried this route lately. Gives me a chance to do something a little different.
I LOVE your pix!
