This time last year I pressed the “Publish Post” button on my audition for the Graphic 45 Design Team audition with excitement and a bit of nervousness….okay, A LOT of nervousness! I must admit, I am feeling much the same way right now!
I was over the moon when I learned that I was chosen to be on THE best Design Team in the industry. I was also very honored and humbled. Graphic 45 is an amazing company. My opinion has not changed, it has grown. Having spent the past year working with them, I can truly say that Graphic 45 is one of the most respected and admired companies in the paper crafting world for good reason. They run their company as a family, with integrity, generosity, and a heart! I was, and am, honored to be associated with such wonderful people.
When I took on the commitment of working on the G45 Design Team, I went in with the intent of being involved for just one year. This has been such a rewarding experience and the current Design Team is so supportive and caring, I just don’t want it to end, so I decided to give it another go.
So it is with excitement and hope that I once again submit some of my Graphic 45 projects for their consideration!
Thank you to Diane, Charee, Aimee and the rest of the gang at G45. It has been a blast! And I hope the journey continues…..

I am often inspired to work outside my comfort zone by you, your little youtubes and the mega work on ustream mean I have learned to run before I could walk, to you I offer much credit!
Thank you and good luck! may you inherit shares in scor tape too! love Debb-sillymoo
All things happen for a reason. Maybe a 2nd year will open new doors. You are talented, you are artistic AND you are important 🙂
You have it made, no way they could do without your very creative ideas and projects neither can I. You may have to cut your Wednesday classes to allow you time to create for G45, we would all understand. Know that when God opens a door you much continue to walk through until he shuts it.
Love Ya,
Syd

I’m so glad to hear you are going to continue with Graphics45. You are soooo talented and they are soooo lucky to have you! Your work is fabulous and I learn something new each time I look at something you’ve made or one of your UStream telecasts.
Question: what are those dolls, and where can we get them, that you used in the TH configuration box project?
…keeping fingers crossed.. You are such an amazing talent and inspiration.. ( wondering,, with all these wonderful comments about you.. do you need a bigger hat ) ?? lol Best of luck and thanks for all you do and offer to us..
Laura, your work is absolutely incredible. You are very creative and I hope they pick you for another year on their Design Team. YOU are the one who turned me on to Graphic 45 paper and inspired me to dare create something beyond what I feel are my capabilities. I look forward to more G45 projects. Best of luck!

Hi Laura..I am really glad you decided to go for another year. Like everyone else on here I don’t think you need luck..you are AMAZING and G45 knows this…since you won’t need to keep your fingers & toes crossed for you..how about crossing them for me?? I took the big step and auditioned myself : )
Looking forward to my lunch date with you on Wednesday (I watch the 1st hour of your show at my desk each week). See you soon…your No.1 fan from Oregon…Go Ducks!!!
Laura, your prjects are incredible! Wishing you lots of luck.
Laura – good luck to you! I agree with all the other comments – no way you won’t be selected!!! You are awesome! One question….will you be teaching or offering a kit for the beautiful baby cradle / tags set you created with the Graphic 45 Little Darlings paper? If so, please let me know as I would love to make this!!!
