Oh, that Snail Mail is very cute! If I was a card maker, I think I'd be on that one.

I was excited by the idea of snail mail but it is not at all my style, and I have no interest in the America line so these are an easy pass for me.

Love the colors of Snail Mail, but I’m not going to purchase. I have enough paper. (No, I don’t...but if I keep saying it I’ll believe it eventually, right?)
I like America the Beautiful, but it’s cream instead of white so it’s a pass for me. I love the American flag stencil though. I think that is so cool! I don’t know if I’d use it enough to warrant the purchase.

The floral paper with a black background (in Snail Mail) is very pretty and I may pick up that paper.
I love the 4th of July line and will probably pick up most of it. It’s a classic collection but not overly cutesy or serious.

I really like the America the Beautiful line, very usable for the type of 4th of July gatherings we've had in the past...but I don't like Photoplay's paper. I might still take a look at it, even though I don't need much for 4th of July.

Not my style, but I like the thought behind snail mail.

I like the papers from America the Beautiful - red/white/blue is one of my favourites. We're not big 4th of July people (both of the pregnancies I lost were right around the 4th plus we don't have family get-togethers or anything) so the embellishments aren't for me.
I wanted to like Snail Mail but I don't

I'm not really a red, white and blue scrapper. But, I do like the stickers for using with other pages. The cooler, grill, outdoor chairs. And, the flag stencil is awesome! That's something I could use for cards for sure! Snail mail is a no. Too cutesy for me.

I don't have any pics from July 4th really, so I have no use for America the Beautiful but I really like that collection. I think Snail Mail is cute and can be used for gardening/springy pics as well as sending cards. But I most likely wont buy any of these lol.

Thanks for the tag! It's a bit too "thank you" focused for my purposes, and a bit too... something... juvenile-cute?? (rather than kawaii-cute like Doodlebug) Not quite my style. But it looks bright and cheerful and would be good for people who make a lot of thank you cards. I want to like it more than I do. The "thank you" stencil might be the most useful bit. I could imagine that blended in pretty colors as a background layer on cards.

I like both but would not order them. I might pick up a sheet or two at convention if I can.

It’s a classic collection but not overly cutesy or serious. Something about it that doesn't look exactly like all the other lines. I think you described it well.

I enjoy that Photoplay tackles themes other companies don't, but the color palettes in most of their collections really annoy me. I might buy a single sheet, but as a collection, I don't think their papers "go" together if that makes sense. Is the Snail Mail collection lime, aqua, blue, red, pink, yellow, orange, or black? Too.many.colors...
The American the Beautiful collection at least has a smaller color palette, although some of the papers are still really busy.
Maybe I'm too picky...

I like the pattern paper with journal cards in snail mail. They would make quick teacher cards. I like the paper in the America the Beautiful collection. I could actually use it for other purposes.

I like the snail mail, but I am disappointed that the stamp set doesn't have an envelope, you would think with the name snail mail, the snail would have an envelope in his mouth. Oh well!
