Don't you love it when a favorite paper line comes out with a new collection? I love Graphic 45, and I bought paper packs of their new steampunk line and their new Alice in Halloween Wonderland. I made the art journal page above with the steampunk line. The lesson for my art journaling class was to use an ATC as the starting point or focal point for the page. You may remember the "slow down" ATC I made before. Still loving recycling my artwork!
And I made the following "Alice Says" page from the other paper pack:
Do you have any new favovrite paperlines out there?
Those papers sound yummy Rinda. Off to have a look at the Halloween Alice one - sounds totally awesome. Love the Alice page too - love the text. Hugs cherry XXX
ReplyDeleteI just knew you would love those sets of papers as soon as I saw them! I'm pretty tempted by the Alice ones myself, especially after seeing what you've done with them today.
ReplyDeleteI've not come across these before, love 'em! The Alice page is particularly fab xx
ReplyDeleteMuch as I love patterned paper I don't tend to use it all that much! I do like my Basic Grey though :-)
Love the Alice page...and,like Sian,am quite tempted by the papers.Graphic 45 also have some new xmas papers that I think you'd like.I don't have any particular favourite papers....tend to be a bit eclectric....but am going to have a look for those Bo Bunny papers you mentioned on my blog.
ReplyDeletePapers are a problem - I like them, no, take that back .. I LOVE them, but I struggle to use them. I think I'm getting better though, digital is making it easier for me.
ReplyDeleteI love My Mind's Eye papers, American Crafts, Basic Grey and Kaiser Craft and in the digital world, I really like a lot of papers produced over at Paislee Press. There are a ton of others but like song titles .. I know I like the song but couldn't tell you what it is called ;-)
Haven't seen this Alice papers before either. But having seen what you've done, I suspect there will be a fair few of us tracking them down very soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm still very much discovering which paper lines do which type of patterns, and the jury is out as to which is my favourite! So many to choose from!
I'm always attracted to Graphic 45 papers, but they often sit here unloved because I'm not quite sure what to do with them. Our styles are so different, and I'm attracted to your art journals in the same way but would find them difficult to do. My favorite paper lines at the moment include Teresa Collins, Basic Grey (almost always), My Minds Eye, and Papertrey Ink's lines of papers. I also like the Cosmo Cricket papers, but usually buy them in the smaller pads which work better for cards.
