Scrapbook Generations Inaugural Issue!

It’s no secret that the publishing world has been a little harsh on paper craft related mags in the past few years.  Luckily, we have really talented people picking up the reins and creating some truly inspiring online magazines like the NEW Scrapbook Generations CREATE!

The Fancy Pants design team had the pleasure of getting to work with four sketches for this issue, myself included.  You’re going to love these sketches for everything from layouts to tags to cards.

CREATE is a free monthly digital magazine published by Scrapbook Generation, a scrapbook store in Springfield, MO. The first issue, 223 pages, launched this week in conjunction with the opening of Scrapbook Generation's expanded, full-service online store.  While it focuses on sketches, the magazine covers other topics of interest to scrapbookers and cardmakers, like mini-albums, journaling, techniques, and more. There is also a readers gallery and a call for submissions for the March issue.

Welcome 2014!

I am so excited to share that I will be remaining on the Pink Paislee design team for 2014! If that isn’t a great way to ring in the new year I don’t know what is!

Shiny and New!

There’s a shiny and new issue at Paper Issues!  No, I mean… the issue is Shiny and New… Oh, come on!

The issue is called Shiny and New for a new year… we want to see sparkle, shiny, new whatever that means 500to you.  For me, it meant scrapping Lily’s first experience playing in the snow.  It was all new to her but she looked like it was totally no big deal.  And there’s a tiny bit of shiny on this, too, with the drops of silver Color 500Shine.

Oh!  AND this is a fabulous NEW collection from Fancy Pants Designs.  Technically its a valentine collection but I was digging the colors for this and made it work.
