What are you tired of seeing in almost every collection?

Pink, watercolors, gold, brush script, and floral die cuts. I prefer masculine lines that aren't too themed specific. I don't have gamers, golfers, tie wearing, mustached men in my life.

Pebbles just came out with "Girl Squad" and it is mainly pink. Once again it is geared more to little girls, I think they made it for preteens/teens too but it seems a little too juvenile for that. I was the one who said there was too much Princess stuff and my little girl would rather play outside or play Minecraft.

I am way behind on my scrapbooking so I may as well go pink crazy on her baby/toddler pictures while I still can use it.

I don't even need sarcastic titles, but just something in between, and not absolute adoration of school.

I like one "first day of school"

Would also like a "last Day of School"

I'd love slightly generic stickers or tags that said stuff like: "field trip," "spirit day," "my project," "concert day," "school play."

I'd also love smallish label stickers that just had subjects on them. English, History, etc.

Also, images of books, pencils, pens, crayons, school supplies that aren't cartoon-y and aren't vintage.

And how about some technology that reflects 2017? I want laptops, TI 83/84 calculators, tablets.




(bolding mine)

I'm tired of all the Stepford perfectness, too.

Not everything is gorgeous, perfect day, greatest day in the history of man.




I agree with all of this.

Also, can we please for a second take a moment to acknowledge that all of us do not have nuclear one mom one dad 2.5 children families? Every boy embellishment does not need to say "Rad like Dad."

Lack of imagination and creativity. Can't there be one decent collection out there that comes up with funny puns and sayings instead of copying the most pinned quotes of the last five years? Gods and goddesses of Mount Scrapus, save me!

If I'm bound to buy most of my scrap stash in a language that's not my mother tongue, at least make it engaging, interesting and giggle-worthy. Por favor. I'm *this* close to cutting up the "hello" stickers, thickers and die-cuts up to turn them into "hell no's" and send them to scrap companies in protest. Stahp.

I join those who are tired of the everything-is-perfect brigade. Heck, why can't a company design a collection that has a happy A-side and grumpy B-side? I'd buy that.

More baby product options would be nice....

We don't need multiple 'It's a Boy' or 'It's a Girl', that's something you are going to use once. Also 'Bundle of Joy' we don't need multiples of.

Not everybody can use the "we" phrases (for example - "First we had each other, then we had you, now we have everything" type phrases are nice but not for a single mother)

Also maybe a few adoption options would be nice, people who are adopting don't need all the products that document the pregnancy.

White people...There needs to be more diversity in scrapbooking.

Age stereotypes...Not all grandmas are grey haired, cookie baking knitters!

Paris!...there are so many US destinations. Spare me.

Hedge hogs? Cmon, man!

Giraffes? I will NEVER have enough interactions to justify this stickers abundance!

EPIC?! If all our memories are epic, then none of them are-- they become ordinary...um, HELLO!

Are there any college items? It makes sense that A+ cheerleaders and football stars earn scholarships. Adults have been known to continue their education as well. Hmmm

You need to turn "Best Cat Ever" into a thought bubble for one of the cat's pictures.  You must have a cat that thinks highly of him/herself.

YES 100%

I'm themed challenged too. I like more generic themes with color schemes I can use.

Overly themed boys collections. I have three nephews and the first two weren't interested in cars or sports. They only briefly went through a dinosaur period. It was near impossible to find anything without that. I agree on just making the papers and let us decide who to use it for. Enough with the gender stereotypes.

I'm also tired of affirmations and things like "be kind", "let your spirit soar", "live free", etc. Just not me at all. I throw all of those away.

Pink! I like pink but I scrap mostly nephews and animals. There are only so many ways to sneak pink into those layouts. And believe me, I sneak it in a lot. Also, cat lines tend to be pink. Who decided that dogs are blue and brown and cats are pink and white? Weird. I have a male cat- he doesn't seem very pink to me.

There are only so many flowers I can use, also. So many floral papers!

I don't mind the animals because I do scrap animals a lot and I can come up with a lot of ways to use them. I can see how random animals won't work for a lot of people, however.

Pineapples! I do like pina coladas, and I plan to have some in Cancun this summer, but that means I can use ONE. The papers that have them are really pretty but a little limiting.

And while we are on beach stuff, why is so much of it tropical? Good for Cancun, but I also go to Rehoboth Beach in Delaware. Definitely not tropical.

I'm over bicycles, too.
