It's finally here...time to share our latest and, FOR SURE, our greatest release yet! We know you are going to L.O.V.E. it! So excited! *This is a long post, so pull up a chair because we have so much inspiration to share!* So, today we introduce you to TWO of our new collections to be released at CHA Winter (Shipping in February 2013)!
And, we are going to give away products from each of these collections, but we need your help! Help us share these peeks, whether on facebook, pinterest, twitter, online sites, your local store...wherever you can...leave a comment below of how you shared our peeks and we'll check it out (ie: list your local store name, or your facebook or pinterest name) and you just might end up with some great new stuff--plus you'll be the coolest scrapper around by being "in the know" first ;)!
So, moving on to the releases...drum roll please! First, I introduce:
This lovely little collection is filled with plenty-o-sunshine and big bursts of color! It is perfect for anything and everything...we especially love how wonderfully black and white photos stand out!
A cute little bird house from Greta Hammond! i just LoVe the turquoise corrugate paper on the rooftop...so perfect!
And here is a fun little tag set I made...so nice to have a bunch of varied gift tags made up in one place..just pick and go! The holder is a strawberry carton {cute and inexpensive!} and the tag designs use a whole mix of goodies from the Park Bench Collection! You can see close ups of some below.
Flair Buttons....
New flair and patterned ShIpPing Tags! Yep...super cute shipping tags to coordinate! Holla!
Oh...and little BaGs to fit perfectly with those new little TaGS! Party bags, memorabilia holders...you name it...they are so fun!
Oh boy...and PeNnaNTs! yep...pennants and FelT flowers!
Next...super sweet new button mixes!! Love this button below...and the fun heart is from a new stencil set...and the banner sticker is from our new LabEl SticKers...awesome!
More pENnAntS and ShipPinG TagS and check out that fun new stencil...lovin' the herringbone!
Oooh...these new PhOto FRamEs are to die for! Perfect 2x3 fit for wallet sized photos...more cute buttons and another label sticker from our new set!
Can you believe there is still more... PatteRneD EnveLOpeS! Seriously cute...the small size is a perfect fit for GIFT CARDS... oh yes... cute stuff, right?
So that is an introduction to just a few of the FUN new things we have added to the Fancy Pants Designs collections... each line will have a few different embellishments...some more, some less, but I think you can see you are gonna NEED it all!
And, as if that wasn't enough--have I overwhelmed you yet?--, here is the SECOND collection to share today: Down By The Shore
We know that people come looking for OUR summer collections each and every year and we think you will absolutely AdoRe this bright, cheery and oh-so- summery collection--with nautical anchors, whales and sea life to beach towel stripes, florals and dots...you will have much to do with these great summer designs!
So for a fun altered project, I wanted to really come up with something cute, yet super useable for summer and vacations... and this is what I found...an adorable little suitcase ready to be filled to the brim with my traveling scrapbooking supplies! So excited about how it turned out!
And here is what you'll find inside...everything I need to scrapbook by memories on the go...including a handy NeW NaVy BraG BoOK!
I made handy little pocket pouches by trimming some of the new papers down to the size I needed (width-wise). Then, I folded the piece in half and sewed up each side to make my pocket...then I trimmed off the top whatever extra I had! {I added a tape sticker folded to the bottom of my scissors pouch for extra strength!} My pockets hold my 4x6 journaling cards (Artist Edition), along with some of the new Photo Frames, Shipping Tags for embellishing and/or journaling (yep...the new shipping tags), and a pair of small scissors! Label em' up with our handy 12x12 sticker sheets and you're all set! I adhered them to the suitcase with E6000!
Inside you can see a nice little mix of our new embellishments, too! At the very bottom is a fancy new Brag Book (in Navy!), some cut to size papers (to fit the brag book for easy scrapping on the go--or the 6x6 paper pad would be fab here), a set of our new Patterned Envelopes (the top one is filled with a mix of buttons and flair to have on hand!), some vacation stencils (Artist Edition), a marker, some of our new Patterned bags, a Down By The Shore Brag Pad, a mini jar for sand collecting (optional) and some bakers twine...and a new Book Band and sailboat Paper Clip to hold it together! Ready to scrap vacation on the go!
See all those fun goodies all spread out!
And here is a peek at the inside of the new Navy Brag Book...sweet and simple!
And, we didn't want you to miss out on some layout inspiration for the days when you get to scrap right at home...no rush! Here are a couple layouts from Greta Hammond!
Love that summer flair and cute sticker accents! And don't you just love our cute whale and octopus? Totally nautical stuff!
And here's a close up of one of the fun Photo Frames used as a title accent!
We hope you L.O.V.E. it as much as we thought you would! We'll be back tomorrow with our next round of sneak peeks...start now with the sharing, pinning, tweeting and chatting about this new stuff that is simply to die for--if I do say so myself!! See ya tomorrow friends!

Park Bench is adorable. Hope we get to see lots of it in the UK. We don't get those cute little punnets over here - but I have got a ceramic version from Anthrpologie in just that colour!
