I think the Hello Day month papers could be a good choice to use in OLW next year if I don't buy a kit. Otherwise they are all a pass for me.

Say Cheese is cute but I have a ton of EP Disney supplies for my next album so I don't have a needfor it. Didn't even look at Simple Vintage Ancestry. I like Quarantined and would buy it. I also like Hello Today. I like that it's not themed.

I don't like any of them. I admit to not being Disney obssessed but that Say Cheese line has got to go. The same colorway over, and over, and over. Enough already!

I like the fireworks Say Cheese paper but that is about it. I like the quarantine designs, but not the colors and I have the KP stuff to use, so I am set there.

I can't match my Disneyland Paris photos to this line and each volume they come up with repeats the primary Mickey Mouse colours. Why oh why? Nothing for me in this newest Simple Stories release. I really like Cozy Days and Winter Cottage so colour me surprised this most recent release leaves me completely cold.

I have to say that I don’t like their new designer. This is such an aesthetic shift for them IMO. Too much like Crate Paper with the scribbly artwork and lettering (which I don’t like). This is the first Say Cheese line I have no interest in buying, and I am a sucker for Disney. I don’t like the pink added in the Say Cheese color scheme either. I miss Traci Reed already.
I like some of the Quarantine stuff, maybe because the font is the same as one that IACB uses a lot. It has some of her flair.
Generally, an easy pass for me, which makes me sad because SS has always been one of my go-to favorites.
ETA: I do like that they have added a tag cut apart (like Crate Paper), I just wish I liked the designs.

I like the Ancestry one, but I adore Simple Vintage lines.
No need for the valentine line.
The Disney lines are the same thing over and over and I agree, those colors don't match anything in the park. I almost never use those colors when I'm scrapping Disney.
The Hello Today one has some good parts but I can't see me buying much of it. I don't do project life type scrapping.
I like the covid virus paper in the Quarantine one but I already have some covid related scrapbook paper so I think that is a no, too.

They all look cream based which would automatically make it a hard pass for me.
I want a Disney line that captures the magic of Disney for once. The SS line is the same year after year.

I may stand alone but I quite like the Say Cheese Main Street collection. It does look very Crate Paper to me, but I’m ok with that. I use the Disney themed collections as well as others for my Disney albums.

That dingy off white base kills it for me. Everything looks like is was pulled out of someone’s attic stash from 2002 and there was a leaking roof.

I am wondering how many Say Cheese lines there will be when it is all said and done. Say Cheese 47?

I definitely prefer white based papers at the moment so none of these really grab me. It's probably a good thing as I have more stuff than I can fit in my space right now.

I have no use for Disney anything, as I have no photos from there.
I don't like the vintage papers. At all.
The pandemic line isn't horrible, but I've been scrapping the pandemic with my own stash, just adding freebie cards and screen shot memes to keep it on theme, so i don't need it.
I actually like the cut apart month cards from Hello today. Enough to buy it? Idk.
And I have zero use for a Valentine's line.

There are a couple of B sides in Hello Today that I like. I might look at them again if I need to round out my order.

The colors are don't appeal to me. The quarantined stickers might have been fun a couple of months ago, but the colors don't really make me happy so I'm not really tempted. Which is good. I don't need anything.

I don't need any of it, but I will probably buy anyway. I have yet to purchase a pandemic-related line or any pandemic products, so this might be a good fit as I think this one is small enough and would work well with my existing stash.
I have a weakness for their "Simple Vintage" lines and this is no exception. I love the papers. My heritage photos are limited, but I might selectively pick a few favourites from this line.
Every year I am determined to do a month in review, so Hello Today would probably be a good fit for that, especially since the b-sides seem versatile, so if I don't get to it the supplies aren't wasted.

The quarantine cut aparts are weird sizes and I really hate how they mix cream and white.
The Disney collection is nice. I might pick up the 4x6 snap albums for gift albums or a kit gift.

Some of the Hello Today papers and stickers I like - generic.
But the one and only paper that caught my eye was "Quarantined - Virtual Life" B side...it's just like an old October afternoon stripe that I adored (maybe "girl talk"?)

I thought the say cheese line usually has a white base? This new line looks like a cream base. The B sides of Simple Vintage Ancestry are gorgeous! It's not often I see a line where I could use one side or the other of every paper! I like the quarantine line but not in a rush to buy it either.
ETA: It appears I'm in the minority for grungy looking papers.

Forgot to click on the last two links!
I want the Hello line! I think it will be an easy way to do a year of photos in my Family album with divided sheet protectors.
The Valentine's line is okay, but I don't have a need for that.

ETA: It appears I'm in the minority for grungy looking papers. No, all the Say Cheese lines are cream-based (like all of SS products). I too wish they would do some lines with white instead of cream. Even their products that appear white, upon arrival are actually off-white to cream. Echo Park’s Disney lines are white bases.

I don't buy a lot from Simple Stories, but I am liking these!!
I like this version of Say Cheese with it's newer icons, and the versatility to work with earlier lines.
I don't normally buy lines like "Hello Today", but I can definitely see scrapbooking some ordinary Covid-era, "staying close to home" pages with that. I like the OA vibe on some of those and just think it could work with this weird year for me.
I like Quarantine Life too--these are elements/images I will be incorporating on to many pages this year, because it's just not normal.
So I think Simple Stories was very relevant and practical with these, and I'll be buying some for sure.
