WHY SHINEON LOVES FRANKIE



FRANKIE is a dream come true
every month is made more exciting for me now by the release of the new FRANKIE.. a new buzz of exciting collectors... projects.. stories and love affairs for the girl who loves all things pretty.

Frankie could not be more recommended by shineon. If you have a spare $10 in your purse but cant afford new fashions.. get frankie and get creative. Its inevitible. Check out the latest bits i made this month out of frankie scraps.. after reading from cover to cover a few times.. i take them apart and create! filled with wonderful pictures you can really do anything you like and you will LOVE the result.

i have pictured a recipe book.. that i made with the help of BOOK ART STUDIOS in titirangi. A wonderful artist LIZ teaches you to bind and make pages from scratch. I decorated with frankie pics for a fun and gorgeous result.. and our new picture in the guest room is a page from frankie..a simple cut out. Framed in a bargain frame from the warehouse for $5!

So ladies.. get the creative juices flowing, read it on the bus.. in bed, at your friends house sipping tea.. leave it behind if you really want to be a nice friend

After reading your first issue i will guarantee you become a frankie addict that races to the bookstore every month before she sells out..
frankie will reignite your collecting spirit ... your creativeness in the fashion arena.. and in everything else fun and feminine.. hell i have even started baking cookies and collecting retro aprons!

Sorry for the lack of blogging.. live has been pretty hectic.. but shineon is destined for great things and great fashions this year so we are back and at em! Stay tuned! and buy FRANKIE!
