Things have been crazy around here lately...and when things start to calm- Spring Break arrives. <sigh> We hope each of you had a very Happy Easter.
Here's a fantastic project by Julia Sandvoss to feast your eyes! She used KN Sorbet Easter, a small pink bucket, and some scrap-elastic (see close up photos below)
Enjoy the weekend! Remember to spring forward an hour (if applicable to your location) and a reminder to check those batteries in your smoke detectors!
I'm outta here for the weekend but leave you with these gorgeous cards for the weekend...
Friends card by Melissa Phillips using Little Sprouts Tailored Tin, Shimmer scallop card and our KN Easter Sorbet collection. (click photo to enlarge)
Linda Beeson designed this card using our brand new Lovely Lace papers, KN Hip Hip Hooray papers and First Blush Rubons.
Remember, you can find the First Blush collection, new Clear Tailored Tin stamps, chipboard and more online at Emma's Paperie. Happy Weekend! :-)
As snow falls to the ground here in Ohio...how about a spring card?!
Anabelle O'Malley used our shimmer outerwear (card base) to design this card. She also used Bare Essentials Chipboard, KN sorbet papers, rubons, Scrap-elastic and some other goodies!
Melanie Douthit created this beautiful layout using our new Rejoice collection as well as the new Lovely Lace papers, Scrap-elastic and applied glitter to our Bare Essentials Chipboard.
Many of you have emailed me and/or our office, some of you have posted on message boards- regarding which online stores carry the newer collections like First Blush, Glad Rags, etc. 
Emmaspaperie.com is a new store who is carrying coveted collections. Right now, First Blush and Blossom collections are on her site and are in stock (while they last) and there will be more stock added, soon!
Here is a paper purse and Happy Easter card by Julia Sandvoss using the Blossom collection. Perfect little Easter projects!
In the layout, below, Kelly Grundhauser used the First Blush collection to create a scrapbook page featuring her darling twin boys! 
Think Spring!
I always find it so interesting to see how different designers use the same products. These 3 projects have different looks, feels and use the papers in a unique way.
Anabelle O'Malley designed this layout below. She used the new chipboard, Star Spangled papers and added distressing to match the textured look of this collection. 
Miki Benedict creates this tag set using the new Designer Labels, Allegiance Stamps and Scrap-elastic. 
Stacey Stamitoles uses the glitter stars paper with the cardstock sticker that says "bravery, freedom, honor".
As shown by the examples above, you can use Star Spangled for everyday layouts, Summer/4th of July and Military related projects and layouts. So we really mean it, when we say it's a versatile collection!
