Echo Park...

There has been so many new products coming into the shop in the last week...it seriously is like christmas when you walk in to the shop...boxes every where...holding a ton of new stuff all just waiting to go up on the shelves and onto the website...

There are so many, that i had trouble picking one to focus on today....i will take photos and a run up of some of the others in the next few weeks...But after much looking i eventually  picked Echo Park.

There are two new Christmas lines from Echo Park there is this one...here which is more traditional and then there is the line that i am focusing on today which is this one.

As usual with Echo Park it is gorgeous..the colours are outstanding and so is the quality of the paper...nice and thick...but this one is very clever...

Let me explain... as you know Echo Park are double sided and they have a wonderful amount of sheets to choose from...so you are spoilt for choice....but in this line half of the sheets don't look like Christmas paper...so technically you get two lines for the price of one or if you don't want the Christmas ones you still get a new line from them...

Here are the christmas based ones...



And if you turn them over you get these...which can be used for a non holiday project...( in my opinion lol)



Even a few of the element stickers can be used on something other than Christmas...

Looking at them like that i personally would add another brown piece of paper into the mix...either this one...here..


which has a wonderful pattern on...or this one here...


this would add a bit of contrast to all the other colours...

Anyway this would be no good without some projects to show you what i mean huh!!! lol..

Okay here are a few tags that i made using the non christmas side...


 and i made this frame for my friends little girl...the idea behind it is that it hangs on her wall and she can hang her jewellery on all the little hooks all the way around.
