I can use most things, I mean I went to an alpaca farm at the weekend so I can use all those random llama stickers now. And I'm a sucker for anything with a cute animal on it so the spring stuff sucks me in, and then in autumn there are squirrels.
Halloween is the only thing I really cant use at all.

Wedding season. All the Mr & Mrs stickers, the bouquets, the pastel colours (which I don't mind per se but with the lovey-dovey theme, bleh). Not for me. I never document weddings either so... Halloween isn't really a thing here (although my local inner city supermaket has put up some decorations this year, yay) but I still love all the spooky lines. They make my cold, black witch heart happy.

I count "summer" as part of the "spring" releases ;*) They usually start w/the pinky-springy stuff and end w/the pools and beach balls. YAWN If you're going to do summer, how about a realistic BBQ (not one from the 50s) on a realistic deck w/realistic sayings about "Friends and BBQ", summer walks, fireflies, outdoor concert, or something like that. Not all of summer is pools and flamingos and jet planes. Truth. My kids have a fort and a trampoline. I've got lots of pics of that. And our favorite summer activity is hosting BBQ and bonfires. We like to bike ride and we love walking our dog up the city River trail to the ice cream shop. I did have one summer collection this year, I have no idea of the manufacturer but it had some lovely paper with bees and fireflies. I loved that. I like to do a few Easter pages, but don’t have a lot of need for pastel anything. To represent spring in my part of the world, you would need mud and dead grass and dandelions. I would love a summer line that included bbq’s and trampolines, slip n slides, running through the sprinkler, scooters, bikes without flowers in the basket, trips to the lake, and staycations. All year I do a lot of kid and family pages. I would like to see more generic kid lines, as opposed to boy/dog/rocket ships/dinosaurs and girly /kitty/rainbows/unicorns.

Definitely Valentine's Day through Easter. Barf.

Spring (including v-day). They aren't my color palette, whereas it is hard to get me to dislike something Autumnal (although a few succeed every year). Almost every single collection that would make my faves list is something from the fall, nothing Spring ever makes the list.

Me, too. When I was single it was like rubbing salt in a wound. Now that I'm married we rarely even take a picture that day. I make him a card, but I don’t need a whole collection for that.

Valentine, winter, summer. I love spring and fall the best! I would love to do some winter lines, but we don't go out much in the winter as in doing winter sports etc, so it's kinda boring. Summer, same. I'm not a beach person, too hot when we do have summer here in the north!

I would say spring, though I love Easter and always scrapbook that day.
I love summer, Christmas and vacations to scrapbook. Those are my favorites.

Summer. I live in S. Florida. We only go outside if we have to go somewhere. I live in a Florida too, and love scrapbooking summer pics, vacations, beach days, barbecue/pool days, etc I do have to say I do love my a/c - summers are quite hot and humid here.

Insofar as supplies are concerned, the fall theme definitely isn't for me. I don't seem to use the colours related to fall in my layouts or even cards. And as much as I love Halloween, my kids are grown and I don't have a reason to use anything Halloween related. But insofar as scrapping time is concerned, this is the start of my season. Football season starts for DH meaning he spends his Sundays on the couch and I spend mine in my craft room!

Definitely Easter for me. I struggle with taking photos and scrapping them. Not sure what my deal is.

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

Anything that isn't Christmas/ winter, Autumn or more recently Halloween. I don't need a paper company to tell me to get excited for bunnies on Easter or flamingos and pools for summer.

I'm even bummed that someone has already posted a Vday line. That's usually the beginning of the end of the zinger-happy products, tools, layouts, etc. Now, I love me my hubs and all that, but how many gushy-lovey-hearty layouts can a gal do?!??! Way less than a couple per year is my answer. And some of the Vday paper is so OTT that it really can't be used on kids, friends, etc. layouts.

That blue/red/black collection they did might actually be the only v-day collection I actually enjoyed.
