Knowing how much time and money we all invest into this scrapbooking obsession, there is something I've come to really appreciate about Webster's Pages. That is that no matter how the trends change, you can always count on these products to be timeless.
Our older lines are still utterly gorgeous and can be combined with our newer lines with such ease.
I can prove it too.
Well, I can't, but our designers can.
Country Estate is such a classy, elegant line. This page by Iris Babao Uy proves that it will never go out of style:
Classically feminine and girly, this line is perfect for documenting daughters, nieces, friends, and yes, even you! (Get out from behind that camera, chickie.)
Larissa Albernaz has been hard at work mixing and matching a couple older lines (Waiting for Santa, Postcards from Paris and Trendsetter) with the newer Winter Fairy Tales line:
I think she's proven that like wine or cheese, Webster's Pages only gets better with age.
Laura McCollough proves that even packaging can come in handy with this adorable necklace she created:
Laura cut the 2" square on the back of her Postcards from Paris kit, (the thumbnail that shows what products are included.) Next, she placed the paper inside a metal frame and melted beeswax over it. She printed out "Love Life", added a paper flower and metal flower that were a part of a headband that broke. She assembled everything where she wanted it and then melted beeswax over it all.
And it all started with product packaging...
Designer Julie Walton shows us that it's not only our traditional Webster's Pages that withstand the test of time...but our digital ones as well.
Gosh, I love this layout. Julie mixed Life's Portrait and Hollywood Vogue and even incorporated a tag from All About Me. I told you it never gets old!
Finally, look at this beauty from designer Jaz Lee...a gorgeous concoction made up of Country Estate and a whole lot of creativity.
So, in honor of our deep love affair with our older lines, we're offering a very special freebie today. Just tell us which collection is your favorite and you could win a kit of your very own. The only stipulation is that you can't choose one of our most recent releases. Anything pre-CHA summer is fair game!
Now, lest you think I've forgotten the winner of the $25 Webster's Pages gift card...
Drumroll please....
what a fab gift card holder, Jaz. So love your work. This year I'm making Greeting cards for my professors and Christmas ornaments for G'ma.

Ooooh such a tricky question but I think my favourite collection from the "older" releases is Wonderfall. I just adore the old carousel and school house and I cannot find it in the UK at all :(

Bela comparação com o vinho e o queijo!!!

I would have to say that Country Estate is my fave "old" collection!! So beautiful. :)

Just gorgeous!

I love WonderFall so fun!
Posted by: Barbie | November 18, 2011 at 08:49 AM
Well, I love them all. But if I have to choose one that I don't have, it's Wonderfall! Absolutely sweet and cozy collection! Thank you so much!

I love every collection! My favorite older Christmas collection is Home For The Holidays and my favorite non-holiday collection is probably WonderFall. It's hard to pick a favorite when they are all so gorgeous!
Posted by: Carla Suto | November 18, 2011 at 09:25 AM
So many great choices! I think I will choose trendsetter though. That one has one of my most favorite papers: accessorize. Thanks for the opportunity!

I adore the Country Estate collection, love the color combinations. Western Romance is also an all-tme favorite of mine!

SQUEEEEEEE, So excited I won!!! Thanks WP, you are on my "nice" list! My favorite "old" line is Hollywood Vogue.

Hmm, I really can't pick a favorite but I did just make Christmas card using some Home for the Holidays. I agree that your paper is timeless.

One of the older collections that I really liked was Waiting for Santa, especially the 6x6 papers!
Posted by: Lianne | November 18, 2011 at 03:39 PM
It's so true your collections are timeless! Our LSS had a customer yard sale and I cleaned up on tons of Webster's papers, some back from 2009, before I even knew about your collections. They are all stunning, but the Winter's Wings may be my favorite of the lot. There was only 1 piece of paper from Postcards from Paris and I would love to see more of that. They are all so pretty, and now I don't want to use them up because I can't get more!!

Spring Market is my fav from the past. Hard to pick only one though. Love them all. Can never have enough papers. Thanks for a super giveaway.
Posted by: Phyllis M. | November 18, 2011 at 05:40 PM
Home for the Holidays is my pick.
Posted by: Linda Carson | November 18, 2011 at 06:05 PM
I think my favorite past collection is Spring Market. Love all of the garden-y images and pages.
Posted by: Marilyn Nimmo | November 18, 2011 at 09:16 PM
Oh wow! What a question! So hard to narrow down!!! Lullaby Lane, Home for the Holidays, Postcards from Paris, Waiting for Santa, and Wonderfall are all among my faves from the older collections, but since I was never able to get my hands on the full line, I'll pick Home for the Holidays. :-D Everything Brandin creates is scrapbooking gold, so really you could name any line and I'm sure it was my fave at one point! lol

Gosh - hard to choose but I think I like Country Estate the best. Thanks so much for the chance to win!

I just adore the Hollywood Vogue... I love the elegance of the colors of that line, some things never go out of style! Fingers crossed... I have tried to get the whole line of this, but only bits and pieces!!!! Thanks for the chance to win some WP goodies!
