Good morning Sunshines....hope you're having a wonderful day so far.
Today I have the pleasure of sharing some very exciting new products with you....stuff that when I close my eyes at night....I see...dancing across my dreams.
Crafty Secrets is coming out with the sweetest new Fairy Scraps for CHA....they will be used over and over again here in my little craft room without a doubt.
Aren't they too sweet for words? I love 'em...yes, I do.
Crafty Secrets is also pairing up with AccuCut and soon you'll be able to find 3D shadow box dies designed by the talented Vicki Chrisman....they are so much fun and I am so happy for her....her creativity is endless and it's so wonderful to be able to see her shine and have the ability to take a bit of her home with us as we create. Both a vertical and horizontal dies will be available and today the Craft Secrets Design Team was asked to use the 3D Shadow boxes in conjunction with the new Fairy Scraps. Such a fun assignment. I chose to use the horizontal die for mine and created a whimsical bit of decor for my craft room.
I think it's so important to surround yourself with inspiring things...whether it's art, music, books, words, etc....so, I clipped apart some of the words in the Fairy Scraps and used some that spoke to my heart....words that lift me an make me happy and hopeful...."expect miracles" being my most favorite.
So sweet and fun....you have to try these....your heart will thank you.
Now...some fun links for beautiful projects from the other designers:
Enjoy the day.

Melis, I sure hope I get to meet you at CHA next week. I feel like I know you and that we're friends. I adore all these new Crafty Secret goodies. My first Grandgirlie "Emma Kay" was just born on Tuesday and I can't wait to start scrapbooking her sweet little life. Til we meet in Anaheim, Jan in Tucson :)

My Melissa - this is precious! I adore the look on the "mad" baby sepia colored image you chose as the focal point in the center panel; a-DOR-able!

Thank you so much for sharing these Melissa, they are so yum...I wanted to ask you, where do you get the shabby chic white metal keyholes from? Also most of your cards look like they have some kind of heart with clear glitter on them / white glitter - is that something you make with chipboard or where are those from? Thanks so much!!! I love your stuff, Zoe

Look how fun this is! I can't get over the look on that sweet little angel's face... my son gives me the same look whenever I tell him any form of "Stop doing that." *giggles* So tell me... those pearls in the middle of your glittered star - did you adhere them with a liquid adhesive? I usually have trouble adhering anything at all to a glittered surface. Have a sweet day! :)
