What a fabulous line! I love how she does purple! Me, too! My youngest son loves purple so I’m excited to see more of it in this line. |

I can’t wait to see what you create with this! I love it every bit as much as I love OA’s early lines. What you create is going to be amazing, I know! I meant to ask you before do you have a blog? Is it ok to pin your layouts from Sparkle City on Pinterest? Totally ok to say no, please don’t feel obligated to say yes. |

There are some of these that I really like. I might not be getting the whole line, but I definitely want a bunch of the individual sheets. Thanks for posting these!
I'm so absolutely loving that this line isn't gendered!

I post most of my work on Instagram! @erintaylor_papercrafting You can absolutely pin my work! Thank you for the sweet compliments! Sparkle City really is an awesome line. I have six more pages finished that only need journaling. I’ll post them here when I’m done.  |

Ok, don't hate me but I don't think I want anything other than the striped papers. Maybe because my kids are older? Maybe it will grow on me. But for now, its probably a pass for me.

I love the colours and the geometrics. Probably have enough dinosaur pp, but the other papers may find a home here.

I wonder if not all the embellishments are listed? No sticker book and no Washi tape. Definitely fewer embellishments than Sparkle City or Head in the Clouds. Oh! And no stamp set, either!

It looks fun...I love the more traditionally male take on some of her feminine designs from past collections.

Yes, finally, here is an entire Shimelle collection I can enthusiastically purchase.
The science theme, so often woefully neglected on an adult level and a lot of times overly juvenile when designed in this female-dominated craft.
Many great patterns here and while some of this collection is child-oriented in its design, the B sides look quite usable and the collection maintains an overall fun yet educational vibe. Hard to pull off, but she managed it. Much of it is useable at an adult level.
Kudos, Shimelle. Would love to see more collections like this in the future.

Overall, I like the line but would only buy a few papers. Possibly the space stickers.

That was my thought as well. If my daughter didn't love Comic Con, Star Wars, and bright colors it would be a no for me too. |

New Shimelle already? The colors are a bit too bold for me, but I like the themes and some of the papers.
I noticed that once again there's a journaling 6x8 pad and no 6x6 small print pad. I guess that's the way they're going with her collections now. It limits my use as a cardmaker so I probably won't be getting anything unless there are some cool little things (stickers maybe) that catch my eye.
It sounded like Joann will continue carrying Sparkle City (and all the other current collections) for the foreseeable future, if I understood Shimelle correctly last week on Fbk live. Which really takes away from the value of their designer area, if they're not going to get the new collections in. Then again, I love Sparkle City so if they have that for the next year I guess I won't be too upset.

You had me at "New Shimelle". Even though her stuff is not always my style, I always buy her stuff cuz I like to support her calm style and her adoration of the craft.

MINE MINE MINE! *so* excited! It reminds me a bit of Basic Grey "colour me silly" with the colours and some of the geometrics and I am dancing around my kitchen with glee!

I like a lot of the non-themed papers and the colors. I might pick some up if I am shopping again by then.

I like a lot of it and it would be great for some LOs for my 11yo who loves science. Some of it is a little too bold & busy, but since it's not all pinks and pastels I can't really complain!!!

I love it. I will likely buy it even though I have no one to use it for at this minute.

I love the papers, but not so much the rest of it. I wish the pad was double-sided, as I prefer many of the B-sides.
I will definitely order some of the paper.

I might actually be able to use some of this! I love the bold colors...very Vicki Boutin (Can't WAIT to see her next line!). I also have a nephew that a lot of this could work for. He's not really into space, or dinosaurs...at least not yet, but the colors, and maybe his tastes will change a bit and I can use them later.

Maybe you can start giving him dinosaur and space themed gifts to nudge him in the right direction   |

I was definitely not expecting another collection so soon. When I read the thread title I immediately went to her blog because I thought she was offering another event...like the "field trip" she did in Disney. I'm even more excited now that I know it's another collection.
ETA...Even though most of the themes are not suitable for me, there are some b-sides and more generic papers that I LOVE. I will definitely be doing some pre-ordering to make sure I get what I want. |
