Maxine Hazebroek: I've been creating

Hi everyone, well I've decided that it's time for a bit more sharing. But first I should mention Collections Elements have just launched their new 2011 range....and yummidy yum yum yum. The papers are scrumptious (there's even green and pinks) and loads of wonderful chipboard items that Collections Elements are renouned for. There's a great printers tray that you put together yourself, which makes it easy to insert layers of transparency in between the layers...and of course there's new transparencies too. But I think my favourite new item is the tissue paper, the sheets are huge and it comes with three sheets per pack. The best part is it comes in white, which makes it very easy to colour to your taste with tea, walnut ink, Tim Holtz inks, or even food colouring....so simple to do. And when its coloured or even just wet it gets really strong and very durable. I could chat on endlessly about it...lol. Anyway here's a peak at some of the new items. So if you love this company as much as I do, head on over to your local scrapbook store...and if they don't have it well you can always see the full range here at my own store.

Speaking of my store, I've been busy coming up with more creative project kits for Maxines Melange.

One creative project kit I've been wanting to do for such a long time is this 12x12 canvas. All the little bits and pieces are packed very carefully in neat little bags so as so not cause any confusion with a zillion items...lol. If you are interested you can see it here.
And then I've been making more creative card kits too. These ones have a touch of vintage, with the gorgeous brown & red tones. They look really lovely sitting together.
