Cream Flower Holey Cardstock
When someone says "Paper Lace", this is exactly the kind of design that comes to my mind. This is definitely a contemporary take on paper lace though; the flowers in this design are trendy and updated, unlike the more elaborate floral designs that you see on the antique paper lace greeting cards that I collect. I love everything about this gorgeous die cut cardstock, from the creamy color to the detailed cut-out leaves that accentuate the flowers.
Kudos to Samantha Walker for coming up with such a chic and useable collection! I think this particular color is so versatile. You could use it for pretty much any layout you can think of. Well, OK, maybe not your husband's hunting / fishing / football layouts. But other than that. This paper would be extraordinary in wedding layouts, but would also be appropriate for using for children's or teens' layouts, birthday, spring, summer, winter, everyday, Easter, Mother's Day, ETC ETC ETC! I think it could be worked in with just about any feminine or "girly" theme you could think of.

Sunshine Flower Holey Cardstock
Wow, this is such a pretty yellow color! And I love the gorgeous floral design too. This color of holey cardstock definitely lives up to it's name of "Sunshine". This is an artistic paper with a lot of creative potential and possibilities. It's very lacy and pretty! I think this paper would be absolutely perfect to use in baby layouts (especially if you're not sure whether it's a boy or it's a girl), spring layouts, Easter layouts, summer layouts, wedding layouts and much more. It is definitely appropriate paper to use for those "very best" photos that you might have been saving in hopes of finding that one special amazing paper to use in the layout. The paper measures 12" x 12" and is acid free, lignin free and archival safe.

Red Flower Holey Cardstock
Here's a lovely bold red design. Very dramatic! and Daring! Remember that this paper can be cut and used in smaller pieces or segments if necessary, but if you use the entire sheet of this Holey Cardstock in one scrapbook layout, it is pretty much guaranteed to be a show-stopper. I think that this particular color of Holey Cardstock would be fun to cut into smaller shapes and used as embellishments. For example, I would love to cut circles and flower shapes and heart shapes out of it to use under a sprinkling of Prima flowers on either scrapbook layouts or handmade greeting cards. This would also be a fun paper to use for making friendly, non-mushy handmade Valentines, Valentine's Day pages, or Valentine's Day gifts for friends.

Here's a delightfully chic but not too "Shabby" scrollwork Holey Cardstock design in pink. This is the perfect paper for any paper crafter who is a fan of the Chic and Shabby Cottage Romantic style. This is a lovely, versatile paper that has a variety of creative uses. It would be lovely to use in layouts for baby girls, toddlers, children, "'tweens", teens, or adults. This is a good paper to use for Mother's Day cards and layouts (assuming mom loves the color pink, that is!), Easter, or for any layout that involves roses, pink flowers, a love theme, or just needs a touch of pink scrollwork paper lace.

Lagoon Swirl Holey Cardstock
Here is the "Lagoon" color of Holey Cardstock by Creative Imaginations. I haven't actually seen this color in person yet, but it appears to be a lovely light seafoam green color. I can't wait to see this paper in person. I think it looks like a really versatile design with a multitude of possible uses. This is a color that I use frequently in both my art and scrapbooking. It's a soothing color- easy on the eyes and easy to combine with other colors. While I love vivid colors, especially pinks and purples, I find that the brighter colors will often sit unused in my paper stash when I actually scrap; I usually reach for pale blues, aquas, greens, tans and browns when I create new layouts. One thing I have learned from my career as a textile designer is that every color palette needs a green or two (or three!). This "Lagoon" color looks like one of those perfectly lovely pale greens that is a no-brainer to actually use. I love it!!

Chocolate Swirl Holey Cardstock
Oh so charming! This paper would be gorgeous paired with sepia-toned photos or vintage/ antique heritage photos. It would also be perfect to use for fall-themed scrapbook pages, or layered with papers you've tea stained, walnut inked, distressed, or aged. It would be adorable paired up with contemporary pink papers for the pink and brown color combinations that have been so popular and trendy lately. Or with more muted shades of camel, khaki and tan or celadon green for an understated elegant look. This paper could be used for wedding photos too if you are making a wedding scrapbook. There are so many creative possibilities!

Well, here's a new, different and exciting interpretation of a classic polka dot pattern! Instead of being printed on the paper, the polka dot pattern is die cut, opening up a lot of creative possibilities for you when you craft with this paper. You can layer this paper overtop of another paper (either patterned, textured or plain). Or you can thread fibers, ribbons, colored wire, cord, fabric strips ETC through some of the holes to create stripes, borders or accents anywhere on the page. You could fasten brads or eyelets to some of the holes...you could do "lacing" effects...so many creative possibilities. There are 6 different colors of the Dot design to choose from, but this Hot Pink color is especially lovely!
