Addicted To Rubber Stamps - Embellishments, Pearl Crystal

Since the beginning, Prima has made magic with flowers. Our founding division, based in Thailand, has manufactured artificial mulberry paper flower stems for the floral and gift industry for many years. As our line developed from full size, natural looking flowers, to smaller, highly detailed miniatures, our flowers became a natural product for Scrapbooking.

Under the creative direction of Tami and Pom Indra, A new Prima line was introduced to the market in 2003. The well-received flowers encouraged us to expand our offerings and in 2004, we showed our first “Got Flowers?”

These mini milk bottles created quite a stir at CHA that winter and were an instant hit with buyers and consumers alike. Thousands of bottles later, Prima continues to expand using creative packaging concepts to enhance our now famous “Primas” May the timeless beauty of our flowers find a way into your memories as well.

Can We Mention Halloween Yet? - Monday, September 28, 2009

We hope it isn't too early to showcase a FANTASTIC Halloween project from a very special artist at Prima!

We know some of you like to start projects extra early. This mini-album is sure to inspire you with it's creativity. (For those of you who like to start later...we'll be posting more Halloween projects at a later date just for YOU.)

Gothic-Tattooed Halloween Album

Sandi Pirrelli created this scary, technique-filled album using lots of Prima products...starting with a chipboard album as a base. The chipboard is easy to color and is perfect to be "grunged" up. Throughout the album Sandi used a lot of temporary tattoos and applied them to paper instead of skin. (Now how creative is that? Tip: For best results do not get them too wet.) She also used Prima's felt Voila to add lots of rich texture to the design. On these very artsy pages we find a FABULOUS idea. Sandi created a "spider web" right on the page! Use thread to create the web so the photos or tags can slide in and out easily. Sandi layered lots of flowers and our Say It In Studs for a sparkly effect. By inserting a red Build-A-Book page Sandi adds an EERIE touch to her book! Lots of E-Line gems add perfect finishing touches. Sandi then added her own personal touches to finish off her one-of-a-kind, Gothic-gorgeous, Halloween Album all ready for spooky pictures to be added! Try some of these techniques for your Halloween projects.Prima has a variety of products to help you create the PERFECT piece of art.
