Are you enjoying Bella Blvd's reveal week so far? What do you think of Snapshots and Play Date? It's going to be difficult to wait for these collections start shipping! How about another reveal? I'm so excited about this new Halloween collection called...

Halloween is all about the kiddos! The creative costumes, wicked make-up and all that delicious candy. Bella Blvd has brought back our top-selling Halloween color palette for this year's Trick or Treat. Create cute layouts with the mix of whimsical owls and pumpkins, or creepy projects with the webs and spiders. Our new Paper Pieces offer fun frames, cut-outs and labels too! Happy Halloween!

Eek! One of my favorite papers in this wickedly fun new line is Spooky Town! Oh what a spook-tacular little neighborhood! :)

Welcome back to reveal week for Bella Blvd! All this week, we are revealing FIVE new collections along with some project inspiration straight from the pages of the CHA Summer 2013 catalog! Today's reveal is... 

The days spent outside blowing bubbles, picking flowers for mom, jumping and discovering bugs are what great play time is all about, not to mention the awesome photographs too! The bright blues, sunny yellows and lush greens make Play Date come to life. Grab a friend or two, run free & enjoy a park side picnic today!

My favorite paper in this adorable new line is called Little Birdie! It's just too tweet not to love!

Introducing Bella Blvd's Snapshots Collection

Bella Blvd's reveal week is finally here! Starting today and continuing through Friday, we will be revealing FIVE new collections along with some project inspiration straight from the pages of the CHA Summer 2013 Supplement catalog!

Just like your day-to-day life, it's bold and full of energy! Inspired by our fascination with Instagram and our cravings to capture & document 365 days a year comes Snapshots! Record today's events with this hand-drawn collection of cameras, houses, flowers and arrows! Snapshots makes it fun and easy to put those daily self portraits and funky details captured with our phones to good use.

Here's a closer look at one of my favorite patterned papers from the new Snapshots line, My Point of View! I adore all these colorful cameras! To get a closer look at the entire collection, visit Bella Blvd.

Happy Birthday

T.G.I.F! I'm ending the week with a birthday card post using Doodlebug's Take Note collection. Do you like office themed accents and papers? This line has so many cute ones! My favorites include the Mini Doodle Pop 3-D pencil, pushpin and scissors! 

A perfect addition is the tiny paper clip made by Tim Holtz. I use them on so many projects! I fear the day they're no longer manufactured! ;)

So...what will you do over the weekend? Mine will be the usual combination of relaxing, house keeping, errands and...who knows? You know what I'm really looking forward to? A trip to the NC mountains in a few weeks with the hubs. We're going to hike the waterfalls and try zip-lining. The week after that is our annual family beach trip. Every year, towards the end of summer, Dan, Christopher and I go to the beach for a few days of family time, swimming in the ocean, exploring and dining. Christopher has been counting down the days since our last trip! :)
