Color Wash and Snow Village

Pink Paislee continues to roll out the new collections this week with Color Wash and Snow Village:
       

Color Wash is so soft and gives you that cool watercolor look without all the hard work.  Snow Village is one of my favorite Christmas releases ever, ever! The gold foil accents are going to blow you away!

I got a chance to play with some Snow Village for the CHA show:

It’s soooooo pretty!  Check out the Pink Paislee blog to see more design team inspiration with these new lines.

Hey Kid!

Pink Paislee is rolling out some fabulous new collections for the summer CHA show and first up today is Hey Kid, a line for kids that is super fun without being “cutesy” (finally!)

Even better, the line manages to combine goodies for both boys and girls and they easily mix for those of us with kids of both genders!  Check out what I created with this line for the show:

     

And a fun mini album too:

Fancy Pants–Park Bench

GAH! Every once in a while a company creates a collection that really speaks to you, color wise, and Fancy Pants’ Park Bench is definitely where I am at right now.  I’ve been obsessed with teal, yellow, and gray for some time now.  Check out these projects I whipped up for the CHA winter show:

I cut the three large frames to go down in levels towards the center.  I used a ton of corrugated cardboard to raise each frame. 

And this sweet treat set makes use of old product packaging:

                   
And, why yes, I DID color coordinate the M&Ms, thankyouverymuch!

Fancy Pants–Trend Setter

Have you guys seen the latest Fancy Pants releases from the CHA winter show?  I seriously love them all!  A show favorite was Trend Setter.  I personally am just SO happy to see navy blue in scrapbooking supplies!

I created these Trend Setter projects for the Fancy Pants booth:

I love classic patterns… chevrons, dots, and stripes, oh my!

And a fun card:

This fresh color scheme makes me happy.  I love a good spring line that isn’t pastel or cutesy so this collection will keep me busy for a while!

And now for my favorites…

Pink Paislee saved the best for last, in my opinion.  I love these two collections for their versatility.  I can scrap BOY with these but they clearly have a lot more to them. 

First, Indigo Bleu, which I adore but have not had a chance to play with yet:

And finally, Prairie Hill, which is SO fresh!!

I created this tag mini and the box to hold it with Prairie Hill:

LOVE!!  You can see both of these collections in their entirety on the Pink Paislee blog. 

Fancy Pants–Summer Soul

I know many of us are still dealing with the cold Winter weather here in the US.  What better time to be dreaming of Summer, then?  Enter: Fancy Pants Summer Soul line.  This is the girly surf collection that will have you scrapping all your Summer photos and I’ll be showing you the boy counterpart on Monday!

I whipped up a couple of projects for this line…

 

 

 

Fancy Pants–Childish Things

Fancy Pants’ second release this week is Childish Things – a whimsical collection of bright, youthful patterns and icons of childhood. 

I created this little card for the occasion!

Check out the full line and what the other Pocket Chicks created over on the Fancy Pants blog!!

It Feels Like a Spring Jubilee!

As I type this it is 54 degrees in Massachusetts.  Say WHAT!?  Yes, it totally feels like Spring today and it is mahhhhvelous!  It’s almost like Pink Paislee had a crystal ball (read: weather channel) and KNEW this would be the perfect day to debut their new Spring Jubilee line.

I know, right?!?

It’s so bright and pretty and Spring-y! And y’all know I am all about fussy cutting those little goodies up. 

Here’s a page I did this week (yeah, I am spoiled and got to play with it early!):

(Excuse me while I cry, again, over my broken lens.)

 

You can see the full Spring Jubilee collection on the Pink Paislee blog!

Fancy Pants–Be You!

In case you missed the fantastic announcement last week… I am now a 2012 Fancy Pants Pocket Chick! Woo woo! 

The past week I have been NUTS with CHA project preparation and eagerly anticipating Fancy Pants debuting this (and other!) fun collection.  Be You is bright, bold, and easily adaptable for either girls or boys.  Awesome!

My little guy page… (and my primary lens broke this week.  Can you believe my luck!?!)

And a fun hanging pendant using the fab bright pink from this line…

 

You can check out more projects from the Be You collection on the Fancy Pants blog!

And of course I’ll be back with more from Fancy Pants later this week!
