Was looking through new lines at ACOT--and this one caught my eye for sure as I love some of these retro-inspired prints and color combos. It lists the designer as Christine Middlecamp, is this a new thing? Hope Fancy Pants hired her for a few lines or long term, and hope to see some fun, new, and fresh stuff from them now!

I like the dark gray and white stripe paper with the aqua and dark gray botanical on the B-side. Or is it black? Regardless, I could use a boatload of that. And I like the paper with the teal scalloped banner at the bottom. I think I'd like to make a few banners like that from my scraps. The teal and gray look great together and with the yellow.  |

The designs are cute but the colors don’t work for me. I’ll be passing on this one.

I like!
As a side note, I have always like Christine Middlecamp. I wondered where she went awhile back and found that she was making jewelry. Im glad to see she has found her way back to scrapbooking.

I like! As a side note, I have always like Christine Middlecamp. I wondered where she went awhile back and found that she was making jewelry. Im glad to see she has found her way back to scrapbooking. Didn't she make the most detailed pages? Like really heavily layered? I'm sure that was her...i used to follow her blog and also wondered where she had gone. |

Wow, I love it! I hope we get that one over here. So weird, I was just thinking about Christine Middlecamp the other day and wondering how she was doing. Yes craftykitten, very detailed pages, so much to look at and so well designed. Her husband died and she had a little boy and she always seemed so nice. I saw her once at CHA and really wanted to go and say hello but I was too shy! I really hope HLM gets that line in and I can work with it for a blog post! |

It is very retro looking and it's nice to see something with some different patterns in it although I don't think I'll end up buying any of it.

Is it just me or does that have a real “ Basic Grey” vibe to it?

Not my cup of tea, but so happy to see Christine back! I followed her blog and think about her every once in awhile. She was so strong.

A couple of months ago, I had asked Jodi about any new holiday collections coming out and she said this was the 'Thanksgiving' line. I am usually a big fan of FP but this one doesn't call out to me at all sadly.

I always loved seeing Christine Middlecamp's work, it was so gorgeous! I used to love to look at her blog, regardless of what she was making, it was complete eye-candy. I just hope she is creating again, it doesn't seem like she has a blog or Instagram account anymore. Anyway, I'm sure if I can see what she does with it, I'll end up buying the whole collection.

The name of the collection sounds so ominous to me for some reason. Maybe it's just the time of year that makes me think so.

Some of it is cute. I’d have to see the papers in person. I know some are not my style.

She is going to be working full time as a graphic designer and she has given up her jewelry business. I feel fortunate to have bought one of the last bracelets she made. Her work is gorgeous.
That being said, I feel the patterns are too big on the 12x12 papers. The 6x6 pad would appeal to me more.

LOVE!!! Ordered it all. I’m a huge Christine Middlecamp fan. I have some of her jewelry, which is just as fun and colorful as her scrapbooking has always been, but I’m super excited to see her designing in this medium again.

Oh my, I love it! 4 papers and the tags are definitely coming home to me. I'm a Midcentury Modern design lover, but the colors are also darling. One thing that I absolutely love about the crafting/art community is that there is always something for everyone.

Like many of the recent releases, I find it too feminine & floral. Plus, yellow is my least favorite color!

I love it - all of it. The colors and pattern are definitely my style and I can't wait to see what she makes with it. I've missed seeing her create with paper. I love the jewelry she's been making and I'm sad that I never got some before she decided to give it up. If you're interested, her Instagram account is "sparkleandmingle" and she posts regularly.
