"I was inspired by the beautiful design of this older, but gorgeous vintage metal phone to create this altered piece featuring a beautiful photo of my relatives on their 50th wedding anniversary. I kept the design simple, using just a few key pieces from the Tales of You and Me Collection. I added wood icons, flowers and metal embellishments to frame my photo. To add a bit of softness to the phone, I used pink cording and soft pink liquid pearls to finish my design." ~ Robin Shakoor

"Hello everyone. Today I have something different for you. This time I used only one medium, 3D Matte Gel, which helped me to stick all elements in one part. Why did I decide to only use one? I just wanted to show you how amazing the Almanac Collection is. I have already mentioned that is one of my favorite collections. It appeared four years ago, and that is hard to believe, but I still have these beautiful papers. This time I used them as a base for my layered work. I always try to use each, even the smallest piece of paper, a normal snip, which usually goes to the rubbish bin. You can see it the best on the cover of miniature book, which I did especially for this occasion. What about you? What collections are hidden in your drawers?" ~ Monika Huculak

Going waaayyyy back but I miss the Firefly collection! The colors were so intense and beautiful!
Posted by: Rachael Rogers | Friday, September 16, 2016 at 10:57 AM
How fun!! I must say I have never met a Prima collection that I did not immedistely take a liking to!! I do however have a soft spot for the Almanac collection. I find the colours so delicate and beautiful and the different bits and pieces to cut out etc are really great. I love the little birds,chickens, and clocks. The colour combination of the pink with black adds such a classic elagance to it's rustic charm. I simply love it :-) -And I still have it hidden away among my treasures :-)

Love the idea of reviving the older lines to reinspire us because let's face it. We all have them tucked away somewhere. I would love to see more of this feature. Could we see some nature garden or one of my favourites Madelain (I know that is probably the wrong spelling but hopefully you know what I mean.

I love all the Prima collections, but I must say that some of the older collections that I would absolutely love to see again, would be Firefly with the vibrant colors and I loved the vintage look of Almanac. All though Tales of You and Me is not that old, I would love to have seen that one out for a little bit longer. I have not been able to find all of the pieces from that collection that I wanted. I love all of the throwback projects!! Please, please bring back Firefly!!

One of my all time favorite Prima collections was Delight. So beautiful and perfect for fussy cutting. I may just be nostalgic, this is the first Prima collection I was introduced to. I also loved Lyric.

Sharon please whose feather die did she use for the card?
Posted by: Zandra Cudney | Friday, September 16, 2016 at 10:01 PM
The line that I would LOVE to see come back is Strawberry Kisses. I had just begun my card making obsession when I came upon a blog post showing this line. The fluttering of my heart, and the tingling of my toes seeing those delicious prints was such joy. Unfortunately, the line had just been discontinued. I searched high, and low at any craft store I came upon, scoured the Internet like a mad woman to no avail. I still keep the original paper I wrote the paper line name down on, so I wouldn't forget if I were to ever come upon it during my crafting lifetime.

I love Epiphany & wish you would bring that back. But not just the paper, the embellishments too. A LONG time ago y'all had a line and I can't remember the name. It was mostly pink and brown and was probably around 2006 - 2008. I loved that line too. I've loved so many of your lines and have a lot of them in my hoard vault!
