Six new colors! WOOOOO HOOOOO!<\/strong><\/p>\n I am in love with the new colors. IN LOVE. They are Ocean (a pretty teal), Blushing (a coral pink), Elephant (a warm gray), Fuchsia (a dark, rich pink), Evergreen (a lovely green), and Cheddar (a warm orangey-yellow).<\/p>\n Can you spot the colors in this painting? It is 24×24 done on cradled board. You'll also see the new colors throughout all my new samples.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Next up, Media Board:<\/p>\n One package is three 9×12 boards, and one is assorted sizes (5×7, 4×6, and 3×3). What can you do with this? Everything and anything! I am so excited for it because you know how I looooove to make my own books. This will be perfect covers and even pages for chunky books. So awesome. You can join them, layer them, construct with them. Super fun.<\/p>\n Here's the project I am teaching for CHA using the boards:<\/p>\n Next up: stamps and stencils!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You will notice some familiar images. I took Tim's example and took some of my most popular images and sized them down so they're easier to work with on smaller projects like cards and tags. Yay! So smaller birdies, insects, and flowers. And smaller versions of some of my favorite stencils. The new sentiments are great for cards, too. Can you guess who the little girls are in the Gals and Borders set? Some of those images were available in the exclusive Back 2 Back set from last year's retreat, which you only got if you went to the retreat. By popular request, here they are, but with different accompanying images and sized down smaller. You can still get the larger, original version of those images if you come to the first Back 2 Back retreat in February! hint hint!!!<\/p>\n This is the first year that I asked for help from some artist friends for some samples for the show. I have awesome samples from Jenn Shurkus<\/a>, Cheiron Brandon<\/a>, and Penny Bennington<\/a>. I am going to share their offerings with you at the show…and be sure to check their blogs because I am sure they will share.<\/p>\n Here are a few samples that I made with the new stamps and stencils. I have TONS more to share with you…so stay tuned!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Next up, Mica Sprays and Archival palette!<\/p>\n Two words….NIGHT ARCHIVAL INK. Yay, finally! I know the palette will be a great addition to your ink collection. And the sprays are just plain fun. What can you spray them on? Everything.<\/p>\n Can you spot the shimmer from the spray on this sample? It's hard to photograph the sparkle, but it's there. Love it.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
