A little over four years ago, graphic-designer/work-from-home-mom/creative-blogger, Amy Locurto, of LivingLocurto.com introduced herself to me through a really nice email. It was crazy how much we had in common. Over years of keeping in touch I not only adore her work & whimsical style, but I’ve always been smitten by her super-fun personality. We’ve become good friends, and though she lives in Texas, and I in California, we’ve had a few exciting occasions to meet up: Blissdom ’10, a lunch date in the Historic Sonoma Plaza, and last year at CHA.
So, you can imagine how thrilled I am to announce Amy’s latest work here on JSIM!
Along with American Crafts, Amy has designed her debut signature line for Pebbles Inc. It’s perfect for parties (Amy’s specialty), cardmaking and scrapbooking.
The collection, Party with Amy Locurto, features 4 different, coordinating, themes: Mermaids, Superhero, Rainbow and Poolside.
Everything you’ll need for a scrapbook project or to decorate a party is included in the line. Each collection includes double sided patterned paper, alphabet glitter stickers, boldly colored labels and dimensional stickers, paper garlands (perfect for decorating cakes), and detailed embellishments, including cute paper flowers and party favor bags.
My favorite is the Superhero theme. Amy’s vintage inspired twist is so perfect with this line and it’s sure to make an adorable party for a little boy!

i love the poolside set, I follow living locurto already, shes awesome
Super cute – this is the kind of work I’d like to do someday. Thanks for the giveaway!!
Hi Cathe! What a great giveaway! I did go over to Amy’s blog to look around…she has such wonderful printables over there. From her new line, I just love those pleated medallions (is there another name for them?) that could be used for almost any occassion. Please enter me in the giveaway…thanks.
I’m having a mermaid party this summer at the pool for my 3 year old. Both mermaid and poolside would be perfect for that. Love Amy’s work.
I just looked at Locurto’s site also. The new products are adorable. I especially like the new rainbow line, but I could have fun with all of it!
Amy sent me. I’m going to love her new shop Peebles,Inc.
Amy had made a beautiful collection! I love them all. My daughter has a birthday coming up and it would be so fun for her to choose a theme from Amy. (Hard to top last year’s Secret Agent Training Camp, but these item’s will get us close!).
These products are all so cute. Thinking of all the great parties I could have with these. I would love to win this giveaway. You think of such great ideas. Keep up the great work.
I think these collections are so bright and fun. I’m in love with each of the collections. My son would really enjoy the super hero set and one of my daughters is a huge fan of rainbows. I can picture the scrapbook pages, cards, lunch box notes, etc. that I could make with these. Thanks for the chance to win.
WOW! These are so great. I can think of a lot that I can do with these. I love the superhero and the pool side ones. What a great giveaway.
Thanks Cathe!

I’d love to use the superhero theme for my son’s first birthday in March.
I’ve just signed up for Amy’s free printables (to be sent to my email). I love her modern-yet with a touch of vintage style! Thanks for “introducing” me to Amy via this great giveaway. Would love to win!
I love her themes and ideas! I think my favorites from this collection are “Mermaids” and “Rainbow.” Such a great giveaway! Thanks for hosting!
Finally, a super hero theme outside the realm of the commercial stock characters! And the colors are perfect!
Amy’s designs are fabulous! The mermaid design would be perfect for my daughter’s summer party.
What a fun line of party planners! Really great to see new fresh ideas! Also great to see women crafters supporting and encouraging each other! Love it!
I have a sister and her family who live in a warm part of the country and the Mermaid party pieces would be perfect for a party they have for my niece.
She has some super fun vintage V-day printables. What a fun blog
Thanks for the giveaway!
Julia
Really very cute and wonderfully coordinated! Must be so exciting to be a designer and see your work released in that way!
Love all the bright colors in Amy’s collections! Her blog makes it so easy to throw a party…everything is there!! Even the recipes!!
I really like the summer set and the super hero set!
Visited Living Locurto and loved it. So many bright and beautiful party supplies and also could be used for scrapbooking!!!
What a great imaginative collection. Great job Amy
I love Amy’s blog site and can sure see why you two have so much in common. Great that you two have become such good friends. Just love her awesome new signature line! It has such great bold colors and design. Really love being a follower of both your wonderful sites.
Thank you and sure hope I can be the lucky winner to use her delightful new designes for my adorable grandkids birthday parties!
I love her blog!! I follow her on Pinterest as well. I can imagine using her Owl Camping birthday kit for my niece. I love camping and she loves owls! And, although the days of the week tags are designed for kids, I can imagine using them for my husband and me. It would be so helpful in the morning to have it all picked out, and to do it once a week (instead of everyday) seems awesome!
Amazing party products! Thanks for sharing!
I love how everything coordinates. It beats printing it out yourself.
I love the whimsy of Amy’s party kits. And I know they are designed for kids, but hey, as a fortysomething whimsical gal, I’d love to throw a Girls Night (for grown ups) party with these decorations! I hope I’m lucky enough to win it before you can buy it.
I already following Amy on facebook, Pintrest and her blog. Now I will follow you along the way too! Love all the lines, so happy for Amy!
Love Love the look, this would make a great look for my grandson who is 8. He is always trying to be a super hero. He was born a premmie and he is so much smaller than the other kids, but his Dad who is a sheriff what’s him to never feel different and to always think he’s big. His little heart sure is. Great great design and characters.
These collections are so fun! I’m more likely to use them for scrapbooking than throwing a party, but I might be convinced to spare some for some to decorate treat bags to go into school.
We are having a Mermaid theme for our daughter’s birthday this summer & the mermaid party products would be perfect! I love how bright the colors are
You two look alike, too! You could be sisters.
I am a sucker for anything retro. Thanks for the great giveaway, Cathe.
Happy New Year!
They are so cute. Talented.
Very cute!!! Perfect for birthday parties!
I’ve been a fan of Amy’s for several years now and this new collection is awesome! My daughter’s bday is in the summer and all of the vibrant colors would be perfect for her next celebrations. Thanks for the giveaway!!
My son wants a superhero party for his 5th birthday- he’d love this!
The little superhero guy is so darned cute, and will be great for boy parties. The line is also good for birthday cards, lunchbox notes, posters, and pick me up cards. Nice. sharon dot gullikson at gmail dot com
Fun..Fun..bright and more Fun.
love,love, love all things Amy! I think the Superhero stuff is awesome.
Love the superhero theme! Adorable!
I seriously love everything Amy does! It’s all so colorful and perfectly coordinated. My favorite is also the Superhero one. Adorbs!!!
I would love to win this because I love to go all out with parties and I have my sons party coming up in a few weeks that I could use these printables for!!
Very Cute
Such lovely items! I love the poolside and mermaid sets for my little girls! Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I am just in love with all of Amy’s stuff, but this stuff is off the charts. Such cute and fun, vibrant colors, love love love it!
These designs are so festive and fun! Great job Amy!
My daughter wants a rainbow party this May. What a cute line of items!! Plus my daughter and I could do the invites, etc. ourselves with everything here!
I can’t decide which collection I like best. Probably the Mermaids, especially the tags on the glass jars, filled with something blue to drink. Great job!
