Specifically the paper with what looks like flies all over it. For those layouts with pictures of your DH taking out the trash. The other papers actually are nice and masculine, with NO pink

Oh! I like the colors! Def agree about the flies, but I would definitely use the others. I wonder if it's also available in 12 x 12.

I'm already sick of those flying birds.
Would pick up some of it in a sale bin possibly.
I just went back and looked again. Not a fan at all, and I have a DH and 2 sons that I scrap.

I like a few sheets of it. Wouldn't buy the whole pad, though, i don't think.

I think it would be funny to use the fly paper for things like eating on a patio, or having a summer picnic. LOL Flies are horrible here in the early summer.
No, I don't think I'd use it, either, but it's funny.

I'm pretty sure those are honey bees, not flies.

I think those are bees rather then flies. As a bee keeper I could use this for lo about our bee keeping story.

Those weird birds and their weird legs creep me out. Too Hitchcockian for me.

That paper would be perfect for the realities of camping, hiking, boating and that wonderful outdoor picnic. Hummmm, nothing better than flies landing on your food!
Eta-I actually like the paper. But the above was my first thoughts to the fly paper.

I like the colors for sure. I'm a big fan of navy blue. In b&w those bees do read as flies to me too.

in my opinion, they're very badly drawn honeybees, if that's what they're supposed to be. They do look a lot like flies. not a fan. eta: and that's the birds' tail feathers, not their legs... they're swallows. (and swallows catch flying insects, now that I think about it... maybe they ARE supposed to be flies, lol.)

I still remember the video I watched in high school about flies. Nasty, nasty, nasty creatures. I do love the colors! I love blue and brown. I would throw away the bee/fly hybrid paper.

'Fly paper'. The first thing I thought of was that sticky paper they use trap flies. Once it gets full you tossed it. Gross.
Anyway, this is the second collection I've seen with grays and browns. Not a fan personally but at least it's different than the brights and the pinks.

Oh, and I hope flies don't become the new trend animal. Flies with scarves...flies with horn-rimmed glasses...flies with mustaches. Flies holding little signs that say "best day ever!" ...I'll stop now. Save

(and swallows catch flying insects, now that I think about it... maybe they ARE supposed to be flies, lol.) Honeybees have two sets of wings. The body shape looks wrong. I can't see enough from this picture to look at the eyes but they look like fly eyes not bee eyes. (I keep bees. It annoys me when people get this wrong.) It's such a common mistake...i wonder if they meant to have bees but just used the first picture the designer found? I might even email them, lol.

I don't actually mind this line, I don't think I will be buying any of it but I can think of quite a few layouts that I could use it on. The fly paper I could use for a camping trip that we had where they almost drove us out of the camping ground. The birds are Swallows and as someone who wears vintage/rockabilly style clothing Swallows are quite a popular icon so I could find a use for that print.
