Today we are featuring the new My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 2 Blush Collection. I was really excited when I saw my papers and had to finally admit to myself that even though I've been trying so hard to avoid pink all my life, I really love that colour! And Blush is all about pinks and reds and occasional, but very charming green. The collection is innocent and pastel and in the same time bold and bright. My paper crafter's heart could not but love it. It's truly versatile and can be used for so many different occasions. You can go girly (as in my Always Friends layout), plush and shiny (Find joy every day), vintage (Thank you card) or romantic (Butterflies card).

I had a lot of fun creating the layouts and cards and I hope you'll like them and give the collection a try. For the card makers, there is the 6x6 pad which carries the same designs, just in smaller size, perfect for card making! And for those of you who just like me like Blush, pinks and greens and stamps, we have a fun class coming real soon!
Im sure you loved Lidiya's style as much as we did - so do try to attend her class this coming Saturday, October 15 at 10 AM - its a wonderful class, guaranteed!
