Card Annex:
At Winter CHA 2013, Carta Bella Paper introduced several new collections including So Noted, Well Travelled and Cool Summer.
While most of their products are best suited for scrapbookers, their newly-launched 4″x6″ Card Packs really caught my eye as I think they would be a perfect place to start a quick card.
The new Card Packs will only be available as a part of the So Noted and Well Travelled collections, and will include 15 double-sided cards that measure 4″ by 6 “.
Here are a few photos of the Carta Bella Paper booth and a close up on one of the Card Packs:
The So Noted and the Well Travelled collections will be shipping in February, while the Cool Summer will begin shipping early March.
During the CHA Winter 2013 show in Anaheim, Echo Park Paper introduced several new collections. Their newest collections that are available in stores right now are Scoot and the Photo Freedom Volume I. February releases are All About A Boy, Sweet Girl, Happy-Go-Lucky (a Photo Freedom collection) and several new mini themes.
They also introduced another addition to their popular Dots and Stripes Line – baby boy and girl collections called “Bundle of Joy” that will be shipping in March. And finally their April collection is A Perfect Summer along with some other mini themes.
As a cardmaker, I was very much excited about the addition of washi tape to their new lines. Here’s a peek at the new All About A Boy washi tape set:
Washi tape will also be a part of the Sweet Girl Collection. Just a reminder – besides paper, Echo Park has matching brads, stickers and chipboard as well for most of their collections.
Here are a few of the gorgeous projects that were displayed in the booth:
Carta Bella, sister company of Echo Park Paper Company, introduced four fabulous and diverse new collections at CHA Winter 2013.
“True Friends” by Carina Gardner is shipping now to retailers. It has a playful mix of spring colors with vintage childhood elements.
The big news at Webster’s Pages from CHA Winter 2013 is their new partnership with Allison Kreft, known as the creative force behind the now-defunct Hambly Studios. Her two debut collections with Webster’s Pages are sure to please those who mourned the loss of Hambly. There are some overlays and designs that are unmistakably “Hambly-esque”, but there are also plenty of fresh elements.
Each collection includes 12 double-sided patterned papers, two washi tapes, overlays, adorable patterned mini bags, a trim card pack, alphabet and tag stickers, and a mini folder and card set. A collection pack and paper pads (in 12×12 and 6×6) are also offered.
