Daisy D’s CHA Sneak Peek

July 11, 2008 by sarah hodsdon

As an instructor, I tend to gravitate towards companies that put education and community service high on their priority list. Many of the children I work with do not have the privilege of having an art curriculum in their schools, nor do they have the opportunity to craft just for fun because materials are in short supply. The folks at Daisy D’s have helped me more times than I’d care to admit over the years; providing paper on short notice and making it work when time was just something we had none of. I received an email from Daisy D’s announcing their new lines for CHA and, the Village Market collection particularly caught my eye. Here are a couple of my favorites. You can see the complete line here.

    Oh my, that would be terrible! I know times are tough for many manufacturers. I haven’t heard anything one way or another but, I will say this, I personally, will be very sad. They are a great company with a huge heart for the crafting community…..If I find out anything, I will keep you posted 🙂

    Talked with Daisy D’s this morning….it is true. They will be done at the end of the month barring some amazing miracle.

80’s Inspired Boombox Shaped Mini Album

I was a teen in the 80’s so this totally rad Boombox shaped mini album from Traci really speaks to me! She created a rectangle shaped black acrylic album with rounded corners, adding buttons and a handle on the top with a cover decorated to look like a real boombox with speakers, a tape deck, buttons and more. She used the Totally 80’s collection of products from Simple Stories that has lots of bright pink and teal colors with cool 80’s inspired patterns like black and white check and colorful graphics. There’s also load of fun embellishments like a Walkman, high top sneakers, retro TV, camera, hair spray can and more. 

I had huge hair in the 80’s and am embarrassed to admit how much Aquanet hair spray I used!

Traci has included her totally tubular signature flaps and pockets in the album too for some radical interactive elements too.

Visit the Artsy Album blog to learn more about this bodacious mini album project.
