Crate Paper Forever.

I wanted to share the projects I made for my recent Crate Paper Design Team submission. These were so fun to make... I actually have made 4 layouts since then that are so full of Crate they could probably have qualified as well. I'm hooked, for sure.

I'm super stoked about these handmade flowers. They are seriously so big, beautiful, and touchable in person. I could eat them up.. you know, if they weren't paper... I think it would be fun to do a tutorial for the different types.

 

Here are the layouts..

and the card. out of my wheelhouse, but I like the outcome..

One of the reasons I love to submit (other than, you know, the possibility of being chosen and having the best feeling ever.) is that you push yourself to make the best possible projects, in the most creative ways. (at least that's how it goes for me). So even when if I don't make the team I have some pretty cool stuff for the books.

Since we're on the subject of Crate Paper.. have you seen the latest lines? I was watching them like a hawk through CHA over the weekend. Here are some favs...

Hello, Love. DUDE. Obsessed.

Bloom by Maggie Holmes. She never gets it wrong.

I have soooo many ideas for these flowers and layered hearts...

 Little You. Inspires me to go back and document babyhood for Ev and Nakiah.

So there are a few of my favorites. I'll have my overall CHA favs post soon. It's a little harder to pull together when you didn't attend.. but I have an idea of the things I can't wait to see in person... and that's what I'll share.
