Sneak Peek Week - Day 5 {Artisan Albums}

You have been seeing little hints of some canvas albums all week long so I am happy to finally show you the latest addition to our product line up!

Meet our new our Artisan Albums

Soft on the outside and durable on the inside our new artisan albums are the perfect mix of texture and strength. Printed canvas covers give these chipboard albums just the right artistic touch. Each album includes 6 chipboard pages on the inside attached with a ring binder giving you the option to add even more pages or dimension.

These albums come in 4 styles:

• 4×8 Natural - This one works perfectly with our new press on backgrounds.  Of course since it is totally natural canvas without any print that also means you can paint it, ink it, and embellish it to your hearts content! MSRP $6.99
• 6×6 Blue - This album is printed with the same gorgeous teal / blue color that is featured in our Bayberry Cottage collection.  MSRP $7.99
• 8×8 Orange - This album is not as orange as in looks in this photo I promise.  It is printed with the same orange that is featured in our 365 degrees collection. MSRP $8.99
• 6×12 Black - This album is a very fun distressed black pattern on canvas. MSRP $9.99

All of our albums include a canvas wrapped album on the outside with chipboard pages on the inside.  Each album has a binder clip mechanism on the inside so you can add more pages and dimension.  You can use these albums as vertical or horizontal.  Totally up to you!

If you love creating mini albums or themed albums these will be perfect for you!  Now you can create a total Pink Paislee project from start to finish using our papers, our embellishments, and now our albums!

Want to win one of these super cool albums?  Leave a comment here and we will draw one lucky winner!

We are planning on announcing all winners on Saturday night before the CHA Show starts on Sunday morning!

Thank you so so much for your enthusiasm for our new collections.  We read each and every comment and we appreciate you taking the time to tell us what you think.  Your comments and feedback are so important to us!!!!

All of our products start shipping to stores in early March so be sure to let your local store owners know what you want!!

Sneak Peek Week - Day 4 {Artisan Elements & Artisan Tape}

Normally we introduce four new collections two times a year in conjunction with the CHA Shows.  Sure we might throw in a mini collection every now and again but for the most part we stick to our routine.  HOWEVER….we have been dying to add some artsy items to our line up and we decided there was no better time than right now to do it!  That is why you will only see three paper collections from us this time around.  Believe me it is not a BAD thing.  We actually added a few more embellishments to the each collection and we have added some fun new items we are calling our Artisan Collection.

So….today I want to show you the Artisan Elements and the Artisan Tape.  Take a peek below:

Let’s start with the artisan tape rolls

Printed paper tape never looked so good! Our new artisan tape rolls can be used to create a border, secure photo corners, seal a love letter, wrap a gift and more. It is hard to think of all the ways these fun designs can be used. Each tape roll includes five meters of 3/4″ wide tape. The best part is they fit on any standard tape dispenser so you can sprinkle them around the office too!

Offered in 10 different designs they can be purchased in single rolls for only $1.99 MSRP!  Here are all 10 patterns:

Let’s see a few snapshots of projects from the team:

By Kristen Swain (Kristen used the orange roll to create a border along the right side)

By Danielle Flanders (Dani used hers to create a frame around the edges)

By Kimmi Achord (Kimmi folded hers into pleats and also folded the houndstooth pattern into a flower)

By Danielle Flanders

(yes it almost looks like patterned paper here doesn’t it?)  See the lime argyle print?  That is one of our tape rolls!

By Danielle Flanders

(place some powder on the back and they won’t be sticky…then use it to create a pull tab)

Now let’s look at the artisan elements:

Satisfy the desire to get your hands dirty with our new line of artisan elements. These products can be distressed to your heart’s desire. Although they are fabulous the way they are, we encourage you to decorate them to reflect your own individual style. Decorate them with paint, ink, markers and more! Each package includes 1 sheet of elements. Sheet size is 8×8 so they are larger than they appear! MSRP $4.99

Unfortunately I don’t have any team peeks to show you of these items.  I just got my box of samples from FedEx and I am hand carrying them to the show tomorrow morning.  What I can show you is some actual photos (bad lighting photos) that I took this evening. We are already getting questions about what this product is made of and what I can tell you is that it has not yet been on the market that I am aware of.  It is a cross between foam and resin.  It works great with paints, inks, markers, even crayons!  It will give you the same effect as raw chipboard but with more dimension and they are self-adhesive!!

They are debossed as you can see from the photos below.

We will do our best to create a demo video on these very soon.

The Alphabet

The Frames (the inside frames comes out so there are 8 total pieces)

The Swirls

Well folks that is our peek for today!  We hope you enjoy these new artsy items from Pink Paislee.  Tomorrow we will reveal the final items in this collection along with photos from CALIFORNIA!

Tell us what you think about these items and you just might win!  We are going to draw one winner from all the comments on this post and that person will win 1 of everything shown here.

This is a HUGE giveaway valued at $35 so get to chattin’

Sneak Peek Week - Day 3 {Queen Bee}

We have been busy little bees around here the past few months putting the final touches on this collection. I just love the final result and I am thrilled to finally show it off to everyone.  This collection is so versatile.  You might not see it at first glance but I think you will change your mind (once again) after seeing what our amazing team has created.

An earthy, lush, shabby and floral experience awaits you with this one!

Sneak Peek Week - Day 2 {365 Degrees}

Ok…we have some of you seriously worked up about our new ribbon pleats, cork shapes, flip notes and mini paper pads.  I also noticed I have some friends out there who love those houndstooth letters as much as I do!!  I am so glad you are loving some of our new items.  One thing I want to point out is that our ribbon pleats are pre-stitched; all you have to do is add adhesive and place it right on your project.  You can shape them, curve them, wrap them into flowers (or circles as you will see below) or twist them.  Totally up to you!  We got a lot of comments on those so I wanted to make it clear that the stitching is included.  You don’t have to sew a thing ;-)  I also know that our Bayberry Cottage collection color palette shocked some of you and we know it won’t be for everyone.  Those colors are not for the faint of heart that is for sure!  Even the members of our team were timid at first and then later they told me it was their favorite…so we say….don’t be afraid to try something new!

Now let’s move on to another new collection we are calling 365° Degrees.  As this collection developed it changed from a travel theme to something more along the lines of the daily journey to self discovery.  In fact for a few months we called this collection the “Pacific” project because we really meant for it to be a travel themed line.  In the end we felt a tug to make it more personal so we revamped the name and focused on the journey we embark on each day in our own lives.

Everyday we create moments that matter; our new 365° Degrees collection will give you the “creative” tools to design your own life!  Our new motto is this “It’s your life. Decorate it.”

So…let’s “discover” this gorgeous new collection:

Sneak Peek Week Day 1 - {Bayberry Cottage}

I cannot believe this week has finally arrived.  After months of development we are excited about the arrival of the CHA Show this coming weekend.  We have lots to show you this week so get ready to fall in love with our latest products.

One of the first collections making its debut is Bayberry Cottage.  There really is a bayberry fruit that inspired the name for this collection.  We just fell in love with this soft plum color once it was combined with aqua, cream, black and lime green.  The results are bold and totally refreshing for spring and summer!  So…let’s dive right into it!

the papers:

Flower Garden

Picket Fence

Front Porch

Trellis

Gazebo

Porch Swing

the embellishments:

So…what’s new?

-How about our new petite paper pads? Cardmakers can rejoice because we created tiny papers in these gorgeous prints.  Yes the pattern is smaller and oh so cute! Each pad includes 30 sheets (3 each of 10 designs) MSRP $4.99

-Our new Flip Notes just made journaling easier and dare we say it…prettier!  Each pad includes 24 sheets (2 each of 12 designs) MSRP $2.99

-We are quirky for cork and you will be too!  New printed cork shapes that you can use as flower centers, buttons or page embellishments.  Stack them, ink them…whatever you want!  MSRP $3.99

-Ribbon Pleats. For the girl who doesn’t want to get out her thread and needle (that’s me) - We have hand dyed and pre stitched the perfect ribbon pleat for your projects.  Each strip measures approximately 12″ but you can cut them down to size.  Another bonus…they are flexible enough to be shaped into circles, flowers, you name it!  Each package includes 2 strips.  MSRP $3.99

We brought back our best selling borderline stickers and punchouts in new designs and we are so glad we did!  We round out the collection with our clear stamp set and new opaque gem brads. What is not to love?

want alphas that match? ..no problem! we think these should do the trick
