Oh my goodness, I love this!!! You are killing me (& my budget) with all of your amazing collections!!!!
Posted by: Tracey | April 03, 2012 at 03:44 AM
I'm super loving this collection!!!! I love the colors, the patterns. The collection just spell fun, sun, cheery. I simple love the denim paper, totally love that chevron stripes, the journaling card elements are with the perfect sentiments... I can just go on. Can't wait to get it in my hands.
My very first collection kit of yours was Year-o-logy which I just bought a couple of months ago and I've been hooked since then. I've not loved a collection this much. Now I hate that the papers are double sided coz i have to choose either sides or get extra sheets.
