new collection + a blog hop

Absolutely delighted to be giving you a glimpse of my newest collaboration with American Crafts...
Splash some color on life with designer Amy Tan’s latest signature collection, Sketchbook. Vibrant colors drip off the page thanks to a bold watercolor effect. Hand-drawn details — from picture frames and cameras to flowers and lace — prevail, bursting with eclectic goodness for everyday projects.

Twenty-four patterned papers mesh wonderfully with fan favorites such as Thickers, Remarks stickers, fabric brads and ribbon. Sketchbook also has a beautiful patterned album to match, and two brand new Daybooks, one of which features a spiral binding and internal pockets.
Join in on the fun as some talented friends are hosting little sneaks on their blogs.

Yes, the entire collection of fabric stickers, mix tape, fabric brads, (which won't be in stores until March) the whole deal is being given away to one lucky commenter!

I like the fact that although it's more artsy and less graphical (seemingly) than your previous line, it is true to your style and, I think, could be used with the first line, too.
