Did I miss an announcement from WeR saying they will no longer be producing the albums? Or are we just experiencing supply issues, possibly due to COVID? They have been unavailable since AC acquired them and were clearanced by AC Moore and other places. Amazon had colors for awhile and gradually dropped down to nothing. In 8.5x11 Red, black, navy and vanilla have generally been available but even those are getting harder to get and cost is going up. Occasionally you can get brown/cinnamon. Scrapbook.com has had some colors on and off but sells out. I got encouraged when I saw they were bringing out their own versions, but not really 8.5x11. This has been going on for at least 2 years maybe longer, definately not Covid related. |

Their 2020 catalogue still has the classic albums listed in a bunch of colours. My LSS gets them in regularly. Perhaps those of you looking can find an online shop willing to special order. |

They only show red for 8.5x11. I think they just aren't making them anymore. If ANYONE comes across an LSS or site that has the 8.5x11 in cool colors, please let me know. I am dying for pink (baby pink, raspberry), blue ( country blue, baby blue, aqua blue...), purple and lilac and green and mint, orange or yellow. |

I emailed them in April when I couldn’t find my usual albums anywhere. Here’s their response. Maybe they are changing manufacturers or something??  |

Seriously? First no more Shimelle and now one of the most popular albums out there? AC, I'm not impressed.

Thanks for the info about Crafts Direct. I ordered 7 brown 12x12 WRMK Albums to get free shipping - total cost $73! The brown ones were on sale for only $9.98. Black was $14.98. I have brown, black and teal already so I was ok with boring old brown.

I was shocked to get next day delivery. I can live with brown and black for the price. |

I have three WRMK albums for each grandkid, so thanks for the reminder! I just had a new granddaughter born April 24 and JoAnn's had the albums in Coral. Perfect for a little princess!

I ordered the last album wrmk album I will “need” If I’m going to have to switch brands. I started panic buying 12x12 page protectors though. Got an awesome deal through Crafts Direct. Currently I put all my photos into the 4x6 photo pages and then scrap 12x13 as I feel like it. At least it gets my photos in an album quickly so I can enjoy them. I have plenty of photo pages but fear i won’t have enough 12x12 plain page protectors to scrap all these photos.

I just don't understand why WRMK albums were stopped.... they were seriously the best in my view. As were the quality of their page protectors. I'm OK for a wee while yet - I bought something like 8 back in the day when blitsy used to be awesome and shipping was great to NZ. I have a couple of albums left to be able to use. Good to hear scrapbook.com might be a good go to
