As much as I love Crate Paper, there’s nothing fresh about this collection. We've seen very similar color schemes with the last few releases. And the prints? Bows- check. Something in frames- check. Grid pattern- check. Large hand drawn circles- check. It’s a pass from me.

Boy, these dusky colors and tired images are doing nothing for me. Big pass. I used to be such a Crate Paper fan but now I feel lucky if I like one of their lines, such a bummer.
Thanks for posting the new line though.

It feels like it started as a wedding collection but somewhere along the way it was decided to make it a bit more universally appealing.

Too muted. An odd collection for warmer months.
I really liked the collection last year with the oranges — I can’t remember what it was called but it had some vivid blues and lots of cute oranges and pinks.

While the ACOT site was loading I was imagining what colours would be in a “fresh bouquet” line. Those papers don’t look like anything I imagined.

Has chipboard always been $6.99? Yikes. I like the blue they used, but it looks like a Maggie Holmes collection I already own...

Yeah, not for me. I probably already have something incredibly similar but in colors I like better.
This doesn’t have anything new or interesting.

There are three individual papers I'd like to buy, but overall I just don't need any more in that color palette.
The photo corners look fun though

It looks like the Heritage collection that joanns had for awhile.

I'm not drawn to that color palette. Never have been. It looks like what's been done already over and over again and definitely not fresh.

Yet another collection of muted tones and big florals, spots n' stripes. Yawn.

Crate Paper has gone from a personal fave to I-guess-I-could-use-three-papers-from-the-line... Yikes. And I love muted tones.  All I want here are the bunny and the scrapbook/photo album (eep!) chipboard pieces. |

I like the muted color combination and a few of the papers. I don't care for most of the illustrations in the Crate paper lines.

I like the bunny paper but I have an idea to scrap my bunny rescue work someday so that's why. Otherwise, meh.

I will grab all the papers, I love the muted colors and the patterns. Not a floral person unless it's Maggie's collection as they're always gorgeous. I concur, nothing different, but I look at Maggie like I do my favorite Calvin Klein dresses--nothing fresh, just classic and dependable. I know my size and I know it will always work for me--and look good.

I love Crate Paper, but the lines are starting to look so similar. And when I own so much already, it’s hard to spend money on something that looks the same!
I may pick up ephemera as I usually make the most of those packs!

Ugh. Nope. I'll be over here still waiting for a "Notes & Things 2" collection.

It's pretty but reminds me too much of 1Canoe2 Willow Collection and Maggie Holmes Sunny Days.

I like the color scheme but it’s really a hit or miss for me. I may grab a few pieces of the paper and extras. I think it is just so many flowed! As a boy mama I can only do so many flowers.

When I looked at the thumbnails this morning all I thought was how drab the collection looked. Now that I've looked at the pieces properly there's a few things I don't mind. Whether I actually buy them will totally depend on how I feel about them on the day, they're nice stash fillers but certainly not must haves.

The colors do not make me think “fresh bouquet.”
This is one of those lines that doesn’t appeal to me at all online. If I was in a B&M store I would probably pick up several designs as base pages, more than likely side Bs, because I like the grids and lines on several. The 1-2 color patterns appeal to me far more than the patterns with multiple colors. It’s just not a color scheme I’m drawn to-and especially not for spring and summer.

This is dried floral, not fresh bouquet. I don't necessarily hate it, but it isn't really what I am feeling like heading into spring. I second scrappyem...Notes & Things 2 would be the BEST! |
