And just when I thought I was gonna have another three months of meeting the no buy challenge. Echo Park is my all time favorite scrapbook paper. I love the Sea Life pack and the Let’s Create! And to think that I’m going to have to wait until May to get the Sea Life. Thanks PaperAngel! |

TFS, PaperAngel! I have sooo much camping pp, but I like Call of the Wild, especially the woodgrain/plaid. Same for the Fun on the Farm line. I love the look, but would probably get only a couple of sheets of the stickers. I like that the Let's Create is based on peach rather than pink. I like the line, but don't often scrap about scrapping, so not sure how much of it I would use. The colours are beautiful. I am thinking I will be picking up the solids kits for most of them. |

Call of the Wild - I like it but I have enough camping stuff right now
Sea Life - I have no need for but it's cute
Fun on the Farm - I like some of the papers (esp. B sides) - don't need farm specific though
Let's Create - I'm still scrapping my way through my last crafty collection but I do love the Stash of Stems paper
All About a Girl - nope
Overall - I still like the EP aesthetic but the themes don't work as well with my current scrapping themes and I have too much stash to buy what isn't immediately useful

Is there really this much need for farm themed supplies? I’m surprised by how much of it I see.

The colors of Sea Life, Fun on the Farm, and Call of the Wild are lovely, but I just don't need those themes. And after a recent shopping trip, I have so much background/B side worthy paper at home that I don't need to look for more.

There are a few papers I quite like, but I really don't need any of them. I may end up picking up a couple of the crafty sheets for the b sides, I really like the multicolour rainbow heart and the woodgrain, but I also feel like I want to use more of my stash before I add things I mostly just like.

Thanks for posting links to EP's site. I really like the Call of the Wild, but don't need it. I do like that the B side of the cutaparts are usable because we don't camp & I wouldn't use those parts. However, I would use the woods & fishing parts.
As for the rest, I do like the colors of the farm & water, but have no need. I don't care for, nor need the crafty or the girl lines. Somewhere there has to be a place between cutsey cartoons & vintage for some of these themes.

I wasn’t planning on buying more but Call of the Wild is fun for my DSs camping trips this summer so I may buy some. I had high hopes for the Farm line as we live in a farm, but it didn’t hit the mark. If anything I’ll grab the sticker sheet since I can always use the animals, but yeehaw? Doesn’t say farm to me.
I dont scrap my crafting things, but I do like the colors and the b sides, so if I saw that somewhere I’d probably grab a few pieces.
Everything else is nice, but not something I’d use. I still have my fish theme pack from years ago. It’s all cute, but I only have so many places to use it.

Yawn.
I would pick up the fishing papers in Call of the Wild, but I am currently not liking cream based lines.
I like some of the Let's Create, but really, why all the flowers? I am a girly girl, but I don't need all the flower stickers or flowers on the camera. It's over the top, IMO.

Some of it is nice/pretty but it's an easy pass for me.

I like the Sea Life one, but none of the others. The girl one looks the same as all the others, at least color wise.

I like Call of the Wild, and I could see myself adding a couple of sheets to the existing camping kit that I have going to give it a refresh for this season, but I might skip the paper and just get the sticker sheet instead. I like the plaid and rainbow sheets in All About A Girl...I might get them to scrapbook a page about myself, just because  |

Of all the paper collections the one I might be able to use is the Wild Life one, but I already have plenty of similar papers from the last few EP camping collections. The back of the papers in Sea Life, maybe, but only because I'm always looking for red and navy papers for my stash. I have no use for anything else, no sea life parks anywhere near me, don't live on or near a farm, and my girls are teenagers and do not like pink... It's all kind of meh  |

Call of the Wild and Sea Life look like I’ve seen them before.
I’m not a fan of the others.
Let’s Create doesn’t have bright enough colors for me.
The girl line is ugly and too gendered.

I like the farm line and will probably get that one as I don’t have many farm papers. Some of the stencils are really cute!

Is there really this much need for farm themed supplies? I’m surprised by how much of it I see. We live in the city, but my kids had lots of experiences with farm life on vacations, visiting family in Nebraska and South Dakota and when we went to the state fair. So not really a true farm LIFE experience as much as farm visit experiences. |

My kid lives 3 miles from a nature trail in Denver that you can only walk or bike in. Last week they were biking up the road and about 25 big horn sheep were blocking the road. On the way down, they stopped and got a great selphy with the creatures just giving them all the side eye. I need a paper that has big horn sheep! While I do have a lot of nature paper, the Call of the Wild could work.
ETA: I do like some of the Sea Life stencils. They are different than the ones I already have.

I like all of these but won't buy Call of the Wild. I have no use for it. The others I can use right now for various themes. I like them and while some of the sentiments won't work for me I can use enough to make it worthwhile.

I like call of the wild and sea Life, but they seem similar to past collections. Maybe a little less emphasis on camping? I did see a cute fox with Let's Go on a Hike.
Fun on the farm is cute, but not something I need or have to have.
I like the idea of let's create, but it's too peachy/ coral, in my opinion.
And I don't have girls, so I'm definitely not the target audience, but All About A Girl is way too much pink, kind of over the top flowery and pink. I like that it looks kind of outdoor oriented and some of the phrases are cute, but it might have been better in primary colors?
Interesting that there are not any Carta Bella ones posted, but maybe they're just not up yet?

Call of the Wild makes me depressed, looking at those awful drab colours. It's like they picked all of my least favourite colours and put them into one collection!  This is supposed to be a good time of year for buying scrapbook stuff, with the Northern Hemisphere going into spring and summer, and all the 'nice' colours. I'm clearly in the minority though. The only one that I would buy, if I were a paper scrapper, is Let's Create. They're not really my colours, but I am trying to expand my horizons so to speak. I actually bought a digital kit the the other day with very similar colours. |

I have been critical about EP's new releases but I like these. Though the Farm and Sea lines I don't need much of since I live in the suburbs by a lake. |

I like some of the Call of the Wild Stuff; and for some reason, really like the Rooster Rainbow sheet in the Fun on the Farm collection.

Not a collection I would need, but I like the color scheme of Let's Create and the B sides have some nice, "tiny print" patterns.

Call of the Wild - Unlike AussieMeg, I really like the colors. I don't camp but I have a ton of nature photos and most of the papers have an A or B side that would work great. I don't need the icons/stickers, though. I love, love, love all of the stencils- I'm guessing 2 or 3 of those stencils will be mine.
Sea Life - I feel like I already have something pretty similar but I really like the papers in this and I have a ton of beach photos so I'll probably get this one, including the stickers. I like a couple of the stencils, too. I have a stencil problem.
Fun On The Farm - Where are the goats? I need goats! Seriously, I'm on a serious quest to find goat stuff. Besides that, I don't need any more farm paper. I do like the chicken paper and the daisy paper, however. I have no idea why I need chicken paper but I bet I'll buy that sheet.
June
Let's Create - the color scheme is pretty but not really my jam. I like a couple of the papers but I already have 2 crafty lines and I don't have enough photos to need more.
All About A Girl - I scrapbook boys and this line is aggressively feminine. Ugh. Even if I had girls I'd think this line is a little much. I do scrap Alice in Wonderland a lot, though, so I might consider the teacups.
Overall, except for the girl one, I like these releases. I usually like Echo Park, though.

Nothing is really standing out. I like the color combo of Let's Create and few papers from On the Farm. I haven't cared for the images on a lot of their stamp sets lately.
