CHA WINTER 2012 QUEEN & CO

Queen & Co has been working overtime creating fresh, innovative new embellishments for the paper crafting market.

Trendy Tape

We will be rolling out 36 styles of Trendy Tape. This fun paper tape extends beyond paper crafting and hits the general craft and office supply bullseye! It is repositionable and removeable and easily applied to paper, plastic, glass, metal, etc!  Feedback on this unique product has been fantastic and with an MSRP of only $2.99 per 10 yard roll this product is sure to be a big hit!

 

 

Twisted Twine

 Colorful 4 ply twine in two and three color blends packaged on adorable reuseable wooden spool. 10 yards per spool, retail ready with barcode. MSRP $1.99.

 

 

 

 

Twinkle

Experience a whole new level of shine with our new Twinkle products. Get lumpy and bumpy with our Goosebumps or class up your next project with our Princess cut stones. Let your creations really shine by adding one of our Twinkle Borders or Motifs. Created to peel and stick as one continous image these dazzling designs will add a little twinkle to any project.

 

 

 

Designer Cardstock & Chipboard

Queen & Co is excited to release over 24 new styles of designer cardstock and coordinating chipboard sets.

 

 

 

CHA WINTER 2012 COSMO CRICKET

Maybe you want something a bit more graphic. Let's turn to the artistic stylings of Eric who designed this ultra-cool line, Twenty Three. You'll notice his modern 60's design influence with a bit of vintage flair. (FYI: This layout was made with "proofs", not actual product. The color is off a bit and the actual papers will look more like the images below the layout.)

If you are expecting a little one and feel like getting your domestic goddess on, then Baby Jane is perfect for you. Even though there is a baby on the layout, this line's paper designs are versatile enough for almost any photos.

Or, maybe you're a romantic. And what with Mother's day and Easter coming up Evangeline's spring motifs may just sweep you off your feet. 

Here's some things I'd like to bring to your attention that are new and different for us.

Element Decks Think of our Element sheets done as, well, a deck. Each line has one. Each one contains 24 sheets that are ALL unique! Each line's shape is a little different. They are super fun for cards, layouts and journals!

Washi Tape I like this better than any other adhesive! There are two different patterns in each package. One set works with Evangeline and Twenty-Three which share two colors in common. The other set works with Baby Jane and Tea for Two.

Stacked Stickers These make doing layouts so easy, I almost felt like I was cheating! Fun embellishments, pre-cut, stacked with foam adhesive, embellished with bling... what's left for me to do??? Just peel and stick!

You already know about our mini decks, but now they are printed on an even heavier weight paper. 

Our cardstock are just the same, FSC certified, double-sided and beautiful. The following pattern is one of my personal favorites!

Our cardstock stickers are even heavier and have more precise cutting. 

The chipboards are back in 6" and peel and stick just as good as ever.

CHA WINTER 2012 GLITZ

CHA Sneak Peak - Jillibean Soup

Anyone Up for Some Southern Chicken Dumpling Soup?

 The first one is Southern Chicken Dumpling Soup - an Easter inspired line.  The chickens inside the chicken coops make me giggle.  Enjoy!

Gotta Love Bella Blvd

One of our favorite designers JAMIE HARPER 
loves BELLA BLVD
Look what she has created with some of the new collections coming soon to your favorite store

 I love using products in a non seasonal way.

I love putting a twist on papers, and using them on as many different layouts as possible.

I save everything, even if I have a scrap that is only 1x4 I will keep it and use it for something else or for a card.

Here is a way to not only use up your scraps, 

but also to use Bella's Christmas papers in a new way.

Because the layout has such minimal product you are albe to use bits and pieces.
