New kit and free minikit!

EMS Arts and I have teamed up again to bring you Rosie's Artbox, A bright whimsical, little bit shabby and funky new kit for your scrapping pleasure. The kit has a messy feel inspired by kids' unrestricted creativity, as fingerpainting or play-dohing with old newspapers underneath. The kit has 20 papers, 52 elements, a handdrawn uppercase alpha, a paper mache lowercase alpha and a set of plastic numbers. Also included are 5 large acrylic words.
All elements are unique in being handdrawn, rendered or extracted by us, no CU items used.

EXCLUSIVE AT CSD!
