My last collection is a big collection- FABRICATIONS. I have two different "themes" in the collections: Canvas and Linen.
I wanted to debut a collection that evokes what is a constant source of inspiration in my life. When I was a small girl, I would go from showroom to showroom and home to home with my mother. There were always bolts of fabric in our home. She was always working with a client to design the perfect curtains, bedspread, etc. I remember always LOVING brocade. This line has special meaning to me. It reminds me of being with my mother. At a very young age, I learned first hand to love style and that designing a home of beauty and memories had meaning.
I have to tell you that the PLUM damask above (this is the one of the 10x10 chipboard album covers/flowers/stickers/brads) makes me swoon. Oh, yes... I love this purple. *this line was designed on canvas and linen like backgrounds to give the feel of actual fabric.
Yes, this collection was inspired with the thought that I wanted a line that was non-themed and classic. You could use these papers on ANYTHING and they would not get dated by the designs! Plus, they were designed so that you can mix and match all the papers in a project. The flowers in the line (white and cream) are beautiful and I love that they are textured like real fabric. I had to stop myself from using them on EVERYTHING! There are buttons, brads, stamps, jewels, metal trinkets, chipboard, die-cut sheets, and stickers as well. Plus, two different 10x10 chipboard album cover and two different 8x8 paper pads. You could say I got a little crazy "in love" with the collection and kept adding pieces.
Here are some projects designed with FABRICATIONS:
Jamie Harder did a beautiful layout showcasing NINE papers, stickers, and buttons from the line.
Jamie H. also designed this beautiful layout. I love how she used the diecut tag (age 3) for the age of Maeve. There is no limits to the looks you can create with this collection.
This layout by Stacey Michaud and I love how playful and fun she made this beautiful project!
I told you that I love the NEW FLOWERS with Fabrications! They come in both cream and white!!!!
