One of the things on my “must see” list when I went to CHA last month was the new Elsie Flannigan line with KI Memories. I have enjoyed seeing Elsie’s work online and in her book, 52 Scrapbooking Challenges, so I new that her brand new line of scrapbooking products would not be disappointing.
Three new lines were released at CHA, each with a fun and playful style, but each with different color palette and paper designs. All of the patterned papers are double-sided and each collection also includes 6 patterned papers, 2-fabric papers and 2 sheets of embossed cardstock. Each collection also includes 2 different shaped chipboard albums (heart, star, flower, circle, airplane and square.) There is also a great assortment of stickers (both alphabets and shapes, clear stamps, chipboard buttons, epoxy stickers, charms and rub-ons that coordinate with each line.
Here is a look at what you can expect hitting scrapbooks stores sometime in April.
Roxie Collection.
This was created with teens in mind. Lots of fun colors (red, pink, blue, back and white) with a great mix of designs. I especially love the Roxie Math Class paper with the white background with black doodling – very fun.
Betty Collection.
This is themed as a love and marriage line, but I can see myself using if for many other things too. The main colors in this collection are pink, red and brown with a little white mixed in. I love the fresh hand drawn style because it is very unique.
Toby Collection.
This collection is travel themed, but like the Betty collection, I think the designs are versatile enough that would could use them for other topics too. The color palette for this collection is brown, blue, green and purple. My favorite part of this collection is the chipboard album that is in the shape of a plane. This would be a perfect album for a child’s first plane trip, trip to grandma’s house, or just use it for any trip that included an airplane. Such a fun idea!
We have already ordered some of her products for some of our upcoming Scrapbook Circle kits, so be sure to check those out starting in June.
