Crazy 4 You by Flair Designs

We would like to introduce to you Flair's new Crazy 4 U Collection. Flair designed this collection with Valentines in mind, but it can be used for so much more – dates, prom, dress up, crushes, first date, sweet sixteen and the list goes on. This collection consists of eight patterned papers and two cardstock sticker sheets.

Overall, this collection is aimed at a younger market (tweens, teens) with references to tattoos, texting, cell phones, and ipods, but it will be useful for any fun, romantic occasion or even girly dress-up/princess stuff. It started out with Valentine’s Day as its focus, but it is so much more! The All Heart Stickers have inner diecuts, resulting in a total of 31 stickers on the sheet. So you’ve got hearts within hearts and heart frames. Crazy 4 U Stickers have 29 stickers total. The Year 'Round Notes paper from the Year ‘Round Collection has been a top seller, so we designed a similar paper in the Crazy 4 U Collection called Love Notes, this similarly versatile sheet can be used as-is in one piece or cut up into 13 different journaling boxes.

The Crazy 4 U Collection begins shipping mid-November. Check out Flair's Blog for some great ideas using this fun new line: http://flairdesignsblog.typepad.com/my_weblog/
