The Poppies pattern from Rossi is quintessential Italian. It reminds me visiting Florence and seeing fields of poppies stretching to the horizon. This pattern is perfect for cutting out individual flowers for collage in your art journal or mixed media artwork, and also makes fabulous background paper.

The Feathers pattern by Rossi is another must-have for me... and not just because it also has peacock feathers! I love the beautiful mix of styles and colors, making it the perfect background for cards and art journal pages. This is another paper that lends itself well to cutting out individual images for collage.

les Oiseaux is a beautiful gold-foiled print by Rossi. I love the different birds in this pattern (some of them have gold accents,) and the French text is wonderful for collage. The mix of elements in this paper is ideal... you can cut out the birds and larger images, and the left-over bits are perfect for creating backgrounds and layers in your art journal and mixed media artwork.

Liberty Flowers, also by Rossi, is truly a classic all-purpose pattern. With the rich gold and the stylized flowers, it has a bit of an Art Nouveau feel to it. This is the type of paper I like to use in the top layers of my collaged backgrounds (where it shows through without taking over the whole piece) or as a purely patterned background on a card or tag.

This Letterpress Flourishes pattern from Rossi was actually printed on a letterpress machine and has beautifully debossed accents. The colors are a lovely light green and a dark blue that's very similar in shade to lapis lazuli.

The Rossi Alphabet paper features a classic serif font in two sizes, both uppercase and lowercase, repeated in two directions across the entire sheet. This is perfect paper for collage and art journaling, and it's also great when used to build up layers on a mixed media panel.

This gorgeous Gold Dandelions paper from Rossi features delicate dandelions and other blooms like Queen Anne's Lace printed in a matte gold and accented with gold foil (if you look closely at the pictures, you can see how the light reflects!) You can't really do justice to this paper in photos, you have to see it in person to really see how beautiful it is! This is one of my personal favorites.

Blue Traditional Scrolls presents the classic Florentine pattern in a fabulous blue / green colorway, and includes beautiful gold foiled accents throughout.

With the Traditional Scrolls on Gold paper from Rossi, they've taken an already classic and elegant pattern and put it on a lovely metallic gold. This is another one that's hard to photograph, but trust me when I say that it's just stunning in person! Perfect as wrapping paper for a special gift, or to use in your art journals, collage art, etc...

This stunning pattern, White Flowers on Gold by Rossi, is another one of my absolute favorites. The classic floral pattern is outlined in black and spreads across a gorgeous metallic gold background. You can't go wrong using this paper in any of your projects!
