It's a day of fresh, gleaming projects from the Crate Paper Design Team, and guess what? The girls are settling in with the new collections and putting together some major "WOW" factors for us to look at, and just in time too, 'cause the new collections are readily available at your favorite retailers! We've already received numerous notices of the collections having been located by a few of you. Already, "Reader Gallery" projects are being spotted in our inbox from those taking to crafting and playing with the their latest Crate Paper Fave'(s). Also, our Facebook page has received a lot of traffic as well, hence the daily posting of projects directly by our FANS! Run and check it out if you haven't already...
Accommodating almost every single one of Geralyn's enticing layouts is an easy to take away idea for those seeking alternatives to what they might already be doing on a regular basis. She's totally technique driven..well, at least we think she is, anyway. As a quick example, verticle strips of Random pattern paper joined together to reflect a colorful patchwork of prettiness. White outlines added thereafter...
Oh how clever you are, Kinsey Wilson! She overlapped sections from Random's "Textile" pattern paper with various other pattern papers to coincide with her meticulous stitching. The juxtaposition of cool & warm is also a nice addition - definitely a "Fall" friendly layout!
Snuggled beneath layers of tissue paper, as Rahel Menig so readily shows us, are snippets of Peppermint's snowflake chipboard pieces and what looks to be a hidden journaling spot constructed from sewn on stickers and a hand-trimmed journaling card. A simple, beautiful idea that we so love...
A mix of Crate's old and new Christmas Collections, Michiko Kato created the most amazing holiday mini album & matching box that we've ever seen! The combination and layering of elements is endless - you can't help but look at each page more than twice!! So much to take in - the fireplace & presents is a perfect pair too!
That about does it for today's Designer Showcase!! Thank-you to are awesome CP Girls for their hard work and dedicated insight into cultivating and bringing about great ideas to be shared here! Couldn't do it without you :)

No offense, but if there's a facebook like button, it'll be much easier for me to share.
