Oh how I love Delovely
With all its pink and turquoise, I had to love Delovely, the newest release from Cosmo Cricket. But everywhere I go I hear people say but it’s so bright! so I must share one little thing…
Delovely has made me fall back in love with Girl Friday. The two collections have similar colours: two shades of pink, turquoise, baby blue and a bit of green, but while Delovely is bright and almost shocking at times, Girl Friday is muted and a little aged around the edges. Together they are my current scrapping heaven and I love them so.
Just thought I would share.
Do you have a favourite combination of two different collections? Do tell in the comments!
By the way, if you attended Scrapamia and didn’t receive your PDF after this class, please email me (shimelle at gmail dot com) and I’ll get that to you. I know we were short a couple email addresses after the weekend.

MM Noteworthy is my favourite collection & it goes so well with lots of other collections, especially Collage Press Sweet Shoppe & the bright OA collections :)

Funny you should ask ;-) The papers & elements I’m saving for the summer shimelle.com course are a combination of two lines, the older of which is Cloud 9’s Finley’s Estate. The new one is CTMH’s Veranda. Veranda has a sublte, vintage look that will help “update” the look of the other papers (I hope).

Love what you’ve done with the DeLovely. Great flower and butterfly details! I just ordered the collection pack a couple of days ago and can’t wait for it to arrive.

I am in love with DeLovely – it’s so DeLicious I’m DeLirious. No, really, I love it. I’m just going to stare at it a while.

Your project look so fab and colorful. I am so “needing” this new CC collection. Heck who am I kidding – I always NEED new scrappy stuff! LOL

My two faves at the moment are October Afternoon’s Thrift SHop and Cosmo Cricket’s Material Girl. One brighter and one vintage but with a similar theme – yum :)

I’m one of those that think that Delovely is WAY too bright for me. I do love Girl Friday, though! That is definitely more my style.

I am going through a Blue/Black monotone phase at the moment, although I am still drawn to buying all the bright papers, guess I will get through the dark and mysterious stage soon. ;-)
