I wouldn't worry about pestering us, nicolep. I am loving your reveals. Tim holtz has sneaked some idea- ology. The link is up on the scrapbook update site. Some wire and cloth storage and some vintage style pp. Looks like he has found a way to take back the core-dinations concept with the CraftCore cs. I am intrigued by the metallics line.

Holy flipping crap! Some companies are listening! I bought 3 sets of the puffy hearts from Elle's Studio's release this week and now I get an email from ACOT showing puffy hearts and stars from Bella Blvd. I'm disappointed that the hearts seem to be large (there are like 2x as many stars) but I'm definitely going to be buying several sets of them...a couple hearts but almost all of the stars, for sure! *swoon* I just wish they had done their purple in them...they tease with a beautiful tone and then seem fearful of making putting them out in certain embellishments.

I like that EP Magic and Wonder, I have no plans to go to Disney but I could use most of it and skip the cut aparts.... Also the Princess line, with the purple would totally work for my Frozen obsessed 10 year old.
I have no use for a cruise line, but maybe I should take one just to support that paper designer. I thought I would never use anything with a boat on it, and then we rented a pedal boat for an hour last summer so you never know...
The Toybox by Carta Bella line just looks fun and I miss OA.

This second Disney line is going to be a must have for me. I used the first one for my son's Pre-K graduation because it was Mickey/Disney themed and it was perfect. I actually used so much of the stickers in just that 4-6 page spread that I'm running low on some things and was thinking about buying more of it for my actual Disney project and now I don't have to. I have SO MUCH of the Disney themed lines from SS that I hardly touch because of the cream base that with this line out and now having a second addition, it makes me regret buying so much from SS!! I am, however, disappointed in them. 14.99 for a kit containing one less sticker sheet. The price point should be lower, not the same. Echo Park keeps making everything more expensive for what you get.

Simple Stories posted a really interesting Video sneak peek today for their Carpe Diem planners. They plan to be revealing all their new lines starting this coming Monday. I love that they used this really creative way to give us a peek into the future. Take a minute, watch the video. What do you see that foretells what is about to come? Baking line? Fitness? Winter scenes? Disney?

Some of the new Simple Stories is highlighted here. A lot of the collections are way too specific for me (just the wrong theme), but I do like some of the individual papers. That said, from my previous experience working in a LSS I know that there are still lots of scrappers (whether or not they are represented here) who do use and like some of the really themed lines so I applaud SS for filling in some of that gap. I'm sure lots of people will be happy with these collections.

I feel like I'm bombarding this thread and I'm sorry if I'm being pesty! LOVIN' the Brandi Kincaid ones and even though I'm not a planner gal I would totally use these on my regular scrap layouts! Pinkfresh Studio: Clear StampsI think we all appreciate you posting sneaks! What she said! Thanks, nicolep

Thank you, everyone, for all the sneaks and links. I am really digging the EP Once Upon A Time Prince line. It's a little too "themey", but I like the woodgrain, text, book, stripe, and star patterns. I think some of it could be used for boy scouts (the trees and fleur de lis) Harry Potter/Wizarding World (castle, coat of arms), archery, Medieval Times type restaurants, renaissance faires, etc.
Edited to add...I like the Bella Blvd acrylic words, but the Home/Namaste combination??? It took me a long time to figure out that it said Namaste. I guess I didn't realize Namaste was such a mainstream word.

I usually stay away from trendy sayings/themes which might not stand the test of time in my scrapbooks but some of that Simple Stories 'Emoji Love' collection is perfect for my tween daughter. Fun stuff!

I was looking at their newest Illustrated Faith collection and it looks more like a line you would use for a Fair or Circus.

I typed up a long post last night with lots of links to individual releases that popped up yesterday on Scrapbook update but then accidentally lost my post while flipping back and forth to create the links. Just gonna say: check it all out! And there are some glitter bugs for purple lovers...

Is it wrong that I can live without all of those new lines? I'm just not feeling them. Same for me. Probably a good thing!

Except I just saw the new EP lines and I like both the Cruise and Princess collections. The Princess stuff would be perfect for some of my niece's pics.

That EP Once Upon a Time Princess is a must have for me. Lots of Disney princess dress up pics are begging for that.
I really like all the new roller stamps with the Simple Stories lines too. I think some of those will find their way to my home.

Exciting day Monday: Simple Stories giving full reveals and Tim Holtz revealing Ranger.
Have we heard from Bo Bunny?

Simple Stories is revealing their first new line: FAITH I like that they are including their regular line plus the Carpe Diem planner line all at once. Now I am the one that was complaining about Tim Holtz's brush stroke stamp, but I think my favorite pp in the SS Faith line is "Shine": basically woodgrain with various wide brush strokes of their other colours printed on it. If I don't buy this line, I guess I could recreate this look, but that paper is really calling my name! Lots of navy. A hit of yellow. I see some woodgrain in there. A bit of pink, but it seems to be on the coral side... And Bo Bunny is revealing the first of six new lines, Life in Colour Again, a whole line including their Misc Me planner products. Gorgeous blues and browns and wood tones! And what's with the octopus??? That's two different companies now. Don't think anyone predicted THAT as the icon of 2017!

Hmmmm? I am not sure quite what to think of the new Bo Bunny, Life in Color. I love the colour palette, the style, and about half the papers. I just cannot wrap my brain around an octopus, telephones, a panda, cassette tapes, an elephant in a crown, a fox, and letterpress blocks all in the same collection. I think I might have to start hanging out at the zoo.

You also forgot the sea turtle on the "noteworthy" stuff. I think I'll be passing on this one.

That Bo Bunny collection might be the most odd and strange collection I have ever seen. No thank you.

The Bo Bunny collection is pretty. Love the animals, but combined with retro records and phones? Not getting it.
I just watched TH/Ranger CHA release video. There is a storage tin for crayons, and small jars that fit in the tin, too. I will be watching for these. The designer storage bags for this year are a set of 3, kind of like a set of cosmetic bags. The other new items are collage medium in a small bottle, larger sized woodgrain paper, and new line of Distress Inks (12 colors, not new) that oxidize with water.

Do people still use the phrase "Hold the phone!" That octopus holding the phone out and saying "It's for you" made me think of that.
Seriously, though, I LOVE all the B sides! Let's see what their other five reveals will show us!

I can't wait to see what people make with it. I'm not sure what I'd do with it.

Thanks for posting all of this, ladies!
I'm not feeling ALL the feels at all with these new lines. Big meh from me. It's Disney vs flamingos.
So far, I have my eye on: - a couple of the blue papers from Pink Paislee's Sweet Freedom collection - the paper featuring Cinderella's castle from EPP's Once Upon A Time Princess line for the next time we go to Disneyland
