Oh yes, you better believe it: with June just around the corner, the first Christmas 2020 collections are about to be revealed... This holiday doesn't even wait until July in the scrap world! Come share all the sneaks and peeks of these new lines as you discover them and discuss this year's trends, colour schemes and Yule themes. And vent about how it's waaaay too early to think about Christmas when the first heatwave is still weeks away.

I’m not a fan of the gnomes, but otherwise love that Photoplay collection! Lovely bright colours, and a clean bright white. The paper with the fairy lights is gorgeous!

Holiday collections are my favorites. I always look forward to the sneak peeks around this time of year. Bring on the holly jolly!

My favorite project of the year! So I always look forward to the Christmas releases. I have already been looking at Etsy and Ebay for Antique things to add to my stash.

*big sigh* I can't believe we're up to Christmas already. DD is my favourite project but I'm definitely not ready for Christmas products yet.

Would you all think I'm insane if I confessed that I kind of did a thing & preordered the Christmas Gnomes earlier this week? ? I have some serious "Gnome" issues 😂😂😂

We had our first day of temps over 110F (about 43C) today, so Christmas seems like a distant memory as well as so far off in the future.
I guess this means I should finish my 2019 DD? I’m so close!

Normally I would not at all be ready this early but since 2020 has been such a shit year, I love the idea of planning for the holidays. Bring on all the things.

I am NOT ready to even think about Christmas. We had snow up until a few weeks ago and I WILL have my summer and fall, thank you.
Although now all the days seem to run together. I had no idea what day it was on Wednesday. I had to look on my phone.

Another gnomie, here, beachsm16 and 950nancy! I will be bringing those gnomes to MY home! Don't need any Christmas supplies--what I have barely fits in the space I have for it--but there will be room for gnomes...

I’m hoping for some beautiful traditional collections this year without too much handwriting. I like my December Albums to be traditional. But I don’t mind the less traditional in my regular album.
I’m not doing the gnomes though. Even though I have a small army of Christmas gnomes that we have added to every year.

Wow! Time has been so irrelevant over the last few months. I can't believe we're starting to think about Christmas.

For those ready to board the Christmas train: 1. Which Christmas collection reveals are you looking forward to this year? 2. Which Christmas collection do you wish would exist but haven't found yet? (particular themes, colours, aeshetic, phrases, etc.)

1. Which Christmas collection reveals are you looking forward to this year? As always, Crate Paper. I hope AC have understood from the avalanche of comments and complaints in 2019 that a super late reveal + shipping date was not a good game plan and won't repeat this bizarre mistake. Also hoping for a collection that's a little more Christmassy, a little less climate-specific. As always, yet again, stevenduncandesigner's Christmas collection for Carta Bella. It seems like he alternates years between more child-centric and adult-friendly lines meaning this year would be something with toys or kid stuff again. Can't wait to see the colour scheme (and hoping for a bright white again)! 2. Which Christmas collection do you wish would exist but haven't found yet? (particular themes, colours, aeshetic, phrases, etc.) "Yule Do": something a little less happy and chipper. Kelly Purkey has done a few snarky and borderline sarcastic mini releases in her shop that I loved. Since she's quitting the scrapbook industry next month, I'll need someone to pick up things there. I'd love a few more holiday inclusions in the one collection too where you could tick off the exact celebration like Hannukah and my beloved Festivus. Grumpy phrases too, please.

Actually I’m ready for this year to be over already so bring it on December will be 6 months closer to the vaccine, woohoo! Although now all the days seem to run together. I had no idea what day it was on Wednesday. I had to look on my phone. Today is Bring Donuts & Pastries to your Favourite Online Board Day, trust me. (did it work?) Normally I would not at all be ready this early but since 2020 has been such a shit year, I love the idea of planning for the holidays. Bring on all the things. Whatever keeps us going and semi-sane during these crazy times, right? I guess this means I should finish my 2019 DD? I’m so close! Yes! Are you playing along with the Team Challenges in June? I've been thinking of a doing a Christmas in June challenge... Would you all think I'm insane if I confessed that I kind of did a thing & preordered the Christmas Gnomes earlier this week? ? I have some serious "Gnome" issues 😂😂😂 Sounds like gnome is where your heart is... umm....looks at the 90+ temperatures (32+ C) and nearly 100% humidity we've had recently.... We're hitting 30°C+/90°F+ territory here too but in nice, comfy, dry climate. Phew, I don't envy the 100% humidity! That is rough. *sad face* I cant see the images! Oh no, did you manage to click the link?

We are in a heatwave too! We have had a very hot early British summer for the past week or two. I’m here for the Christmas pretties, even if it feels a million years away this year, with COVID-19 wreaking havoc across the globe!
