Do you have a favourite line of all-time? Or a favourite product, if it's not an entire line? What is it? Have you hoarded some for future use or do you accept that there will always be new lines to keep you interested?

For sheer beauty (but not practical for my most of my scrapbooking style) Graphic45
Worlwin Double Mates 12x12 cardstock - I can use it on every layout (sadly discontinued) I bought as much as I could when I heard they were discontinuing it, and I am hording it I must admit.

- Sassafras Lass Everything! I especially loved their Sweetly Smitten, Woodland Whimsy and the first one with the deer. I forget the name
- October Afternoon everything. I especially love Rocket Age and Cake Walk.
ETA: for recent lines Crate Paper Wonder. I bought almost the entire line. Adorable!

Favourite product: matte accents is ( soon it will be was as I only have one unopened bottle in my stash  ) the most forgiving wet adhesive for klutzes like me. I can substitute matte medium or glue n seal, but still..... |

I'm not good at remembering lines and names of lines. I know that I pretty much buy ANYTHING made by MME.

My tastes have changed over the years and I don't hoard anything, but I remember really liking a line put out by Love, Elsie when craft paper and doodling first were "in." It was a fun line to work with at the time.

I'm not good at remembering lines and names of lines. I know that I pretty much buy ANYTHING made by MME. I don't remember names either! And I also enjoy MME. I think it was called Lime Twist, the line I was obsessed over? When my first was a baby, I loved Animal Crackers by Making Memories, I bought everything I could find. |

Bazzill cardstock, the textured ones. Loved the assortment of colors for my 12x12 layouts. Still have some stashed.

There was a summer line by Echo Park called Splash and another called Summer Days that I had so much fun scrapping with an used almost every piece (I still have a few). I just looked them up and there are papers in there I don't remember and I know I had the entire collections. Weird...
Anyway, it was my first Echo Park love...

I love Crate Paper The Pier. I do a lot of beach pages and it is just perfect. I have the original two sided sheets, several 12x12 paper pads and I just found a 6x6 pad at Tuesday Morning this week. I've loved every page I've made with this collection.
I also love October Afternoon Midway. The beach that I go to every year has a boardwalk and Fun Land, so this collection works really well with that theme. I love October Afternoon but they are really themey so I end up using b sides a lot. This was one of the collections where I could use the A side.
I will always have a place in my heart for Basic Grey Black Tie. That is from way, way back in the day.
Actually, there are quite a few old Basic Grey collections that I use. Indian Summer, PB&J, Origins, and one whose name escapes me that has flowers and a lot of bright pink and lime green. Oh, and the dog and cat line Max and Whiskers, I think it was called. I've made a bunch of pages with it because it is hard to find a pet line that isn't little kid looking. I love the colors in this one.
BoBunny made a zoo one that I've used the heck out of. I don't normally like BoBunny but this one was awesome.
Evidently I have a lot of favorites. That happens when you've been scrapping over 10 years

I don't hoard, I use it when I want it for a project.
Some favourites include just about everything Foofala, older Anna Griffin, and older 7 gypsies. Newer faves are anything by Crate Paper, Maggie Holmes, and a lot of Pebbles stuff. (btw, older for me means pre-2008).

I don't hoard either, I use it. I'd love some more Scenic Route, though. Love the clean lines of that! I also liked Junkitz.

I wish I would have made time to use instead, but I have Chatterbox (still love), older MME, and older Basic Grey in my stash. My taste have changed to a brighter, clearer color palette though - so now I tend to like Bella Blvd., Echo Park, Amy Tan, and Shimelle.

KI Memories Frosty Type: I just used some the other day (it was blue with pink type). I hoarded it in grey tone-on-tone, brown, green, purple, white with black, and the blue with pink. Love the texture of the papers and the size font varies depending upon which color paper it is. I bought it at an LSS close-out for 5 cents a sheet. My $3.00 sure did go far that day!

That happens when you've been scrapping over 10 yearsI see we like a lot of the same BG paper lines - I swear I wish I could just be on their perpetual list and get all their papers (new and retired), LOL. Was the pink & green one you're trying to think of Sultry, by any chance? It's also on my list... |

The first thing that came to mind was Simple Stories' 100 Days of Summer. I also really loved Summer Fresh. From my scrapping days of old, there were some KI striped papers that I loved and still have a few bits. I can't remember which line they were from. I don't think I payed much attention to that in those days. The colors were just lovely and they did the same style of stripe in different lines. I also really love The Pier by Crate Paper. I'm in the middle of a mini album for beach pictures and I'm loving it. I also have so much love for MME that I can't even pick one line. MME |

No, I just looked it up using your link. It was Green At Heart. While I was looking I saw Hipster, which I loved, loved, loved. I have a crazy amount of that, too. It kind of goes along with the boy themed thread. Good colors.
I've used up a lot of my Lime Ricky, too. It also worked well for boy pages. So many pretty papers on that retired page.
I just looked at October Afternoon's site and some of the ones I loved there were 9 to 5- the B sides were great, Witch Hazel, Sasparilla, and Daily Flash.
It is crazy how much Basic Grey and October Afternoon I have.
