Now that the word is out and I can talk openly about The Girls' Paperie I feel like celebrating! I mean really...It has been a hard few months keeping this secret...Now that I have shared it and YOU have all been so excited along with me I think I want to give you another sneak peak and hey why not...Give some away...What {fun} is it hoarding it? I don't know about you but for me it is always more {fun} sharing my excitement for creating with friends...
Here's what I have been doing with my Paper Girl Line...
what is a celebration without decorations? I have been sewing yards and yards of pennants...I plan to string them everywhere in my booth at CHA...So if your not able to attend we will have some {FUN} before I leave...
Give me some ideas of what YOU would do if YOU had some Paper Girl in your hot little hands...
I don't have much...but I am willing to share!
Monday I will come back and one of you will randomly be picked and I will send you some of The Girls' Paperie...
Here's to a weekend of {FUN}...I will be creating like a mad women so that on Monday I have more to share...
Happy Friday! Happy weekend!
Kiss kiss

My kitchen is pink and turquoise, so I'd be remaking my bulletin board for spring...and new magnets for the fridge! Then I'd make a few cute cards, and finally, add bits of it to my inspiration board for studio ideas

Margie: Lovin' the feminine look of the line yet it's not too youngish. Just the right fit for my Samantha. She becomes a teenager late this month so how perfect would this be for her craft party! We'll be scrapping (what else!) And these would make great decorations. Of course, I could then scrap all those bday pics!

Oh this is all just so beautiful! You can alter canvases, frames, wine bottles, make lovely floral bouquets and not to mention all the lovely scrapbook pages!!

I love the colors ... so soft and feminine. It looks like it would be a lot of fun to make a spring banner with or perhaps decorate a frame with. Can't wait to see more!

I would use it on ATC's. I love making them.
Plan on stopping by the booth at CHA to meet you.

By the way, I love the avatar's that your program assigns to each comment.

Congrats Margie! I am so happy for you -
It looks like your new line is perfect for an album for my niece Amaya. I know for a fact that she would fall in love with you because she loves all things pink and is ALL girl through and through...

What a pretty pink sewing machine! The pictures make me think about spring and the flowers that come with it. First, I would finish off my Christmas thank you notes, then put away Christmas so I could welcome spring without the burden of winter. Then I'd dust off my sewing machine and get started on pretty spring valentine cards! I can't wait to see what you do - Kerry

Margie - Congrats, this looks like a great line of papers and I can't wait to see more of them. They look perfect for the upcoming spring season! Best wishes,

I have spent my life talking about going to Paris, and finally booked my tickets for June. I think these would work well with all the vintage treasures I am sure to find in Paris flea markets and hanging around all the little shops I plan to visit in the 3rd and 4th Arr. Bonne chance! (To me to be picked, to you that you sell out your beautiful line!)

I want to make a scrapbook page with photos of my Grandmother, mother, myself and my daughters at approximately the same ages. This would be perfect for the page I have been mentally constructing.
Posted by: Linda Standart | January 08, 2010 at 10:24 AM
I'm not sure what I would make with it. Maybe do some pages for my DD album, I'm only a few years behind and they would go great with so many of her pictures since she is a girly girl!

I have a niece who just had the first girl baby in our family for quite some time. I want to make a brag books for them and grandma!!! Girlie papers are just the ticket.

I love the soft pastel color of your line. So lovely. Makes me think of my daughter all the time. I would make mini albums and layouts and cards with them.
Posted by: LynetteC | January 08, 2010 at 10:24 AM
I would get my Mom's old black and white albums out and help her work on updating them....You're papers are awsome....I sooo wish I could be in Califorina to see them in person and meet you......You papers look ammmazzzzzinggggg.

Last year my mother and a friend of hers decorated our garden for my birthdayparty. They did a great job. So now I'm preparing a few cardmaking and scrapbooking workshops for them to thank them for their help. Your paper would fit in perfectly. Good luck with the girls' paperie. I do hope it will be for sale in the Netherlands to in the future!
Posted by: Juut | January 08, 2010 at 10:26 AM
Well I have 2 girls so I could easily put those lovely papers to use in their scrapbooks!!!! Lovin it Margie!
Posted by: Katie B | January 08, 2010 at 10:30 AM
I am in the mood for some fun flowers to make it look a little like Spring. So, I could run the paper through my cuttlebug and cut out some cute flowers from your cute paper and mount them on sticks to make a paper flower bouquet. Okay, I might even make some cards, layouts and share the rest with my crafting friends.
Posted by: Heidi Gore | January 08, 2010 at 10:30 AM
Love the fresh, feminine colors of your new line! The papers would be fabulous on my spring cards, but I'd use them first to create a "hope" album for a dear friend battling cancer. Best of luck at CHA!

First, I would bring it to the monthly scrapbook club I teach so that they could Oooh and Aaah too.
Then, I would make some lovely cards and tags for my husband's 92 year old grandmother. Every time I make them for her she is so thrilled she says she'll "have to save them for a coronation" but really I know that she uses them to keep in touch with the many, many friends and family members she loves. So they spread a lot of joy!
Nice work, BTW! :^)

Love the little peeks! It looks adorable! Although I live in a house with all boys....I would certainly be using this line for my album!
Posted by: Sherri Morris | January 08, 2010 at 10:37 AM
These colors and patterns are PERFECT for the photos I just took of my DD5 playing "dress up" with her dollies! She's a sweet girly-girl and this sweet collection would match her beautifully.
