I have a weakness for many things…but pattern paper is at the top of my list. It may have stemmed from my fabric collecting back in the 1990’s, a former quilter I loved anything that was fabric related. Then I began to scrapbook. I loved collecting papers to use in my albums (the more vintage looking the better)…and now with mixed media art the fetish continues.
K & Company always seems to tug at my heartstrings…and when I found these paper patterns a few weeks ago I could not resist the gorgeous colors and design. The colors are more bright then what I normally work with…and the journals kept coming.
Of course they had to have some beautiful faces and you all know I love Paper Whimsy. That is where the hard part came in…which face to highlight the cover because there are so many to choose from! Here is my menagerie of journals each adorn with a charming sweet face. I made a link under each so you can find that beautiful face in the Paper Whimsy Shoppe.
Nancy, these are wonderful…what fabulous usage of the K and C
papers… cant decide which is my favorite, these are all so beautiful….I thought the paper was fabric at the beginning..WOW..
All of your journals are absolutely gorgeous! We can’t get scrapbooking supplies here. I do love all the patterns and color! Hope your day is great. Tammy
I’m a great lover of patterned papers as well….there are so many that I find irresistable!!! I particularly love your last page…a real wintery feel there.
These are so gorgeous. I wouldn’t know which one to pick as a favourite!
Just beautiful!

Dear Nancy
I have to say those papers are so gorgeous, full of the glory of Autumn, I must have a search for these.
Well I cannot take my eyes of those beauties. As someone who always has a Journal (or two, or three) on the go at any one time I am completely inspired.
Autumn has definitely hit my part of the world!!

Your journals are soooo beautiful! I love those digi faces and I am going to have to get a few of those for myself :)
Hi Nancy,
I love the K and C papers you used for your backgrounds. And of course the paper whimsy images are ALWAYS irresistable! Fabulous job. I would have a tough time choosing which PW image to use too! :)
Thanks for sharing with us!

Hi, yes, I am in Kuwait. Almost 17 years now. boo! I have an aunt and cousins in Michigan and have spent many a summer there. When I am out walking in 80 degree temps while there, they think I am crazy. It will be a while before we are down to 80 during the day around here. :/ Our summer temps can get about 120 some days. Wishing you a great week. Tammy
WOW all your covers are awesome. The papers, the images, all the details are so fabulous, I’m excited and very inspired. Thanks for sharing:-)

I have quite the fabric stash also! Sewed clothes and quilted and that started as a teenager!! Have not sewn a stitch in 15 years! I hear my Bernina cry under the cover I made for her! These are beautiful journals, Nancy! Your designs and use of papers is always such a treat! Almost forgot why I came here! Have a great week!
As always…your beautiful and timeless art is such a pleasure to see!!! Absolutely exquisite journals. Made with a loving, artful eye and it shows!!! I love it all!!! <3 Candy
