American Crafts Dear Lizzy Collection

kristen — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 14:51:05 +0000

Cute little dresses, honeybees, musical notes, bunting, sweet cherries, and doily patterns — the Dear Lizzy collection by Elizabeth Kartchner for American Crafts has a little bit of everything fun and girly. The collection was inspired by “nature and simple childhood play”, and I’m loving the muted rainbow palette and the sweet patterned papers. When I spot a new to me scrapbook collection, I usually have a standout favorite pattern, but with this one I can’t decide because there are just so many cute ones! What’s your favorite?

Alright, I know that it seems like I’m obsessed with Halloween scrapbooking paper lately, and that’s probably because I am. There are just too many awesome collections this year for me to ignore! American Craft’s Halloween papers stood out to me immediately not just because of the spooky cute illustrated patterns, but also because of the rockin’ color scheme. I love their use of blue in a Halloween palette!
