Moxie Monday: Portfolio from Pink Paislee

If you know anything about me at all, you know that I'm caught up in a serious love affair with yellow and gray. Ever since my second Moxie Fabs column way back in the March/April 2009 issue of Paper Crafts magazine I've been dreaming in yellow and gray. We even did a challenge on it here in the Moxie Fab World back in the day (click HERE to see the winners.) I can't tell you why, but more than any other "favorite" color combination before or since, this one has stayed with me the longest.

Perhaps that is why I am so incredibly drawn to the Portfolio collection from Pink Paislee. It has some lovely yellow and gray offerings, but what intrigues me all the more is the addition of trendy mint green to the mix. I also like that the style in this line is subtle, it doesn't hit you over the head with its colors and patterns. That is not to say that it doesn't have style, mind you. In fact the style in this collection can be described by all the paper names you see below--and then some! Check it:














Raise your hand if you love this line as much as I do, friends! Better yet, leave me a comment by midnight EDT on Sunday, October 14 and I'll draw two random luckies to win it! And don't forget! You've got to check back here first thing Tuesday morning on October 16 for our weekly Winnerday! post to see if you are one of the luckies!

This is quite the paper portfolio,

~Cath

PS Today is the last day to link up your approaches to our Jars of Joy challenge. I'll announce the winners, complete with Moxie Fab Alerts, on Wednesday!
