Gypsies!
We are VERY excited to start sharing the official peak from our workshop of some of the newest products just in time for CHA. This collection has already got gypsies from all over the world ooohing and aaaaahing and it is available in stores now??
We know every gypsy loves a good story, so here’s a little snippet of our collections from the journey… Lille
This bold, vintage meets art journal meets gypsy collection was inspired by one of our many journeys through France. Wanderings in the Northern province drew us along the cool river and many quaint parks nestled in the heart of this little city. The public transit lines bustled alongside us and brought with them the anticipatory energy that accompanies a great adventure on terrain yet to be walked by the gypsies.
The historic architecture consumed our views and revealed intricate detailing with splashes of red declaring itself in the underlying stone and vivid window frames or doors marking the many breathtaking buildings.
The afternoon was spent reveling in the visual extravaganza of the legal graffiti walls juxtaposed against the historical districts. It was a harmonious union of old meets new, chaos meets calm and the perfect setting for creating our next collection of art papers:
You’ll discover evidence of every little moment of our Lille experience peeking through layers and layers of ephemera, sketches, scribbles, photos, etching and bold face font designs on all 6 papers but our love of all things vintage trumps on the back of each paper where you’ll be blessed with some of the best classic vintage backgrounds we’ve ever made!
post.script. ~ the lille papers just might find a place in your upcoming valentine’s designs. why? because once you see them you won’t be able to resist them. trust us… we know these things. we’re gypsies after all!

This collection is beautiful — like all 7 Gypsies products! Altered books are my specialty, and I’m a big fan of 7 Gypsies! You guys never disappoint!

These are some of the most beautiful papers I have ever seen. Ever, ever. I even love the web page around the papers. I guess I will have to buy two of each as I can’t bear the thought of only seeing one side at a time!
