Fernwood is pretty, but for me it looks more like is should have come out in April. Wasn't thrilled about MH, and 16 Christmas papers from DCVW? Too many. AC should have kept other designers and not put all of their effort into one company for 16+ Christmas lines.

I also feel like 16 from DCWV is a bit of overkill. I don't mind the occasional paper in those paper pads, but I'd never buy the whole pad to get them.
Vicki - I quite like the ticket paper and the ledger which is one of the b sides is appealing as well, but overall I don't really like any of her lines and this one is no different.
As for the MH line: horses and hot air balloons and bikes with flowers and overblown florals and fruit, yep, sounds like a good, cohesive collection to me. Also, could we just stop with that terrible shade of brown that is on the polka dot paper on the reverse of the hot air balloons?

VB’s collection is not my style but I am sure it will be a big seller. MH’s lines are repetitive anymore so it’s a pass for me.

I wish some of the DCWV stacks were 6x8. Then I might be tempted.

Fernwood reminds me of SS Great Escape, but with bolder colors. Ferns, mushrooms, butterflies...
All Market Square did for me was get Tom Petty's Last Dance with Mary Jane stuck in my head:
There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
The nightfall will be comin' soon...
I like bits and pieces of both, but won't be rushing out to buy either.

I love Fernwood but I love Vicki Boutin in general. I think her lines are so easy to work with and I'm usually really happy with how my layouts turn out.
The fern paper and the deer/mushroom paper are particular favorites.
I'll probably get 2 of most of those papers, the stamps with the deer/dragonfly, the stencil with the fern, the die cuts and the sticker book. Yeah, I have a Vicki Boutin problem.
I do not like the Maggie Holme's line but that isn't really my scrapping style, anyway. I have a couple of her old lines but I'm usually not into her colors and icons.
I rarely get DCWV. I already have so many Christmas lines I don't need any of those.

I'm loving Fernwood but I love all VBs lines! What I really like is that the B sides are just as good as the A sides. I'll be waiting with my cc and baited breath for this to hit the stores!

Definitely getting a lot of Fernwood! Other than that, nothing appeals to me.

I like a few papers from the Pebbles line. Other than that, no.

I usually love Vicki Boutin's lines, but I'm not loving Fernwood.

The Pebbles line doesn't do much for me either, so that's an easy pass.

Half my cart was Fernwood and the other half was Doodlebug Halloween. I don't try to make sense of it at all. These are strange times.

I love Vicki Boutin but I need to use up more of what I have. I might get the puffy thickers. Maggie Holmes is not my style. No to DCWV. I might get the rainbow polka dot and happy paper from Pebbles.

What's on your wish list?I wont be buying any of it. I have to say, MH is all the same and overdone. I 'get' she wants all the lines to work together but at this point, she is so predictable and uninspiring (and I typically love vintage designs). __horses __ribbons __big floral __cameras She has hit all of her usuals. |

Meh. There is some really nice things in all of those but nothing that jumps out and makes me want to spend my money, also I have so much Christmas stuff that I could go on for years and not need to buy a new thing and I have a few of Maggies lines which all kind of look the same so I can pass on this one.......plus I am not a horse person and never really had much to do with them so I have no need for horse anything.
Fernwood is seriously beautiful but it is the complete opposite in colours and patterns that I like to use, I can appreciate how gorgeous it is though.

Love Fernwood! But I love all things VB.
Not a Maggie Holmes fan.
Pebbles Kid At Heart is kinda cute. I'd use it.
I didn't even bother to look at the DCWV

Maybe a paper or two from the Pebbles collection.

I was trying to think of a nice, not-too-negative way to say that I don't really like any of it. You nailed it! |

Count me in the Vicki Boutin camp. I am loving Fernwood, but I do agree that the timing seems a bit off. By the time I see it here in Canada there will probably be snow on the ground. Although I understand that this probably has more to do with supply chain issues than anything else. This will not stop me from buying it though. All of it. Multiples of it.
There are some pieces of the MH line that I appreciate and will probably pick up, but it looks very same-same to me. I seem to buy odds and ends from each of her collections but to be honest I don't use much of it...I seem to have a hard time pulling it together in a cohesive way. I will probably pick up the camera print and the paper with the ledger b-side. Overall I think I just miss her earlier collections.

I could use some Maggie Holmes for fair pictures. It's a nice change from the usual bold primary colors I've seen for this subject. I kind of like the Sparkling Snow line from DCWV. I'd prefer darker blues. Kid at Heart is cute, but one of those very random lines. I like some of the papers.
