Summer 2016 Reveals: Alex Collection

Reveal week is finally here! We are so excited to be revealing our FIVE new Bella collections, THREE new Illustrated Faith collections, and a new release of Illustrated Faith basics! We will also be sharing some project inspiration, straight from the pages of our catalog, and hosting win-it-before-you-can-buy-it giveaways as well. Stephanie and her creative team have been hard at work developing these brand new products for you, and we hope that you love them as much as we do!  

He's in his own world of technology, gaming and tv shows. Alex might not be paying much attention to Addison these days, but he's definitely eating all the junk food he can find, turning up his headphones and group texting his guy friends. This rough and tumble collection includes four double-sided patterned papers, two embellishment papers, coordinating cardstock stickers, washi stickers, Paper Pieces, 6x8" paper pad, Tabbies and Designer Clips.

I love a good boy collection, even if I don't have boys of my own! The new Alex collection has all of the colors I love, and some great patterns that I know I'll use on everyday pages as well. For this layout, I pulled all of the music-related elements from the collection. I added in small strips of the yellow and green tone-on-tone patterned papers to tie in with the colors in the headphones patterned paper and the Tabbies that I stacked along the top of the papers.

Supplies:
Alex: Turn It Up, Beast Mode, Killin It, Borders, Daily Details, Fundamentals, Paper Pieces, Tabbies; Chip Chip Scripts: Love; Tiny Text Alpha Stickers: Black, Pumpkin Spice; Enamel Dots: Blueberry, Oreo Black, Bell Pepper, Milk White, Guacamole 

The new collections will begin shipping to retailers, online stores and distributors in August! Let your favorite online or local LSS know today so they can get their orders in!

Now here's your chance to win-it-before-you-can-buy-it! We are giving away the entire Alex collection to one lucky reader! Just leave us a comment, telling us what you love about this new collection. One comment per person please. Our randomly chosen winners for all of our reveal giveaways will be announced on Monday, July 11^th.

I love that this collection is teenage boy friendly too. So perfect since that's my stage of life. It's awesome to have a collection that isn't too babyish.

Love the fun colors and music, tech, and gaming icons and papers! With so many girlie collections out there it's always nice to see something for the boys, or a neutral theme. Thanks for mixing in some coordinating patterns to combine with the bold prints. Very versatile and really cute!

I love everything about this collection and it needs to come live with me. My favorite part is that blue and blue painted paper...I need about 20 sheets of it...it is just blowing me away!!! I loved the snippet on the homepage, but seeing the whole thing is even better!!!

[Codydollartist]

A boys line? How cool is that. I love the gamer techy of this line. The die cuts, letters, colors. I can't wait to buy this. 😊

[Nathalie DeSousa]

I love this collection. As a mother of a teenage boy, I can say that it is hard to find papers that will work with his pictures. .. this is just perfect. ... great job Bella Blvd... the collection is gorgeous

[Lynne Thomas]

Dear Laura: I absolutely love this line. It has all the boy colors and language one could want. My son Sam passes away August 2014 of a 4 year battle with cancer and this line would help me scrap up his world from birth to age 14. Probably more so the older years. I would appreciate it very much if I was chosen. Thank you so much in advance for a chance to win this before everyone else can purchase the line!!!!!!
