I can't brain today. . .I have the dumb

It's reveal time!! Here's my new line, The Menagerie, releasing at CHA-S with Dream Street Papers!! Everything is shipping on Monday so hop on over to the site to check out the rest of the great collections.

It's so hard to get the papers' colors correct for everyone's screen. If it seems WAY bold and brash, it's not that bright. If it seems dull and cloudy, it's really not, lol. If you know me, you know I love color, so these shades were picked because they are my very favorite colors to scrap with!

Let me know what you think! Post a comment and I'll pick a couple winners after CHA to get my entire new line :)
