It's here and it's gorgeous!



The New Basic Grey is here and online NOW! Both collections are lovely and very different to each other. Gypsy is vibrant and funky and Lily Kate is muted but classy. Based on the previews I thought Lily Kate was basically going to be a replacement for the sweet pea collections which are being retired but now I see it I think it reminds me more of Urban couture in its designs. The new Wholy Cow Rub Ons are once again delicious and on my must have list!

My two new favourites though are the mini monograms and the 6x6 paper pads - so many people love the monograms but they are TOO BIG for lots of titles. The mini monograms are half the size so much more usable. Having seen the sublime and motifica 6x6 pads which Basic grey produced with K&Co I expected these to be the same - thin paper 6 sheets of each of 6 designs but in fact they are heavyweight paper with 2 of each of all the 18 designs so basically much more variety. I love them!
