Bo Bunny (although maybe they came back?) BoBunny is new under the American Crafts umbrella. The brand's aesthetic has definitely changed a bit, especially noticeable in its most recent release earlier this year, Beautiful Things. |

Really miss OA, Jillibean, and Lilybee. Natlhol, weren't LB's alpha stickers the best?!
Thanks everyone for remembering so many of the great companies: Flair Designs, MM, Sassafras, Cosmo Cricket, Basic Grey, Daisy D's, MME...
And I truly miss getting the monthly or bi-monthly magazines: CK, PaperKuts, and there was one that had "Cottage" in their name.

While I don't hate it, it's definitely not the Bo Bunny of 2010ish I loved so much. |

I will miss OA until someone pries my paper trimmer from my cold, dead hands.
I also miss Scrapworks, Sassafras and Scenic Route.

October Afternoon, Scenic Route and Basic Grey are my top 3 that I miss. On my latest trip to our second hand craft store, I found all three of these lines and bought a few things. I still have a lot of Scenic Route (got a box of their stuff when I knew they were going out of business) and Basic Grey had some great lines for scrapping boys and I usually bought two of each line I liked. |

I miss the old Bazzill with the trios and the mono packs of coordinating cardstocks. I loved chatterbox and wish I had been able to buy more back then. Some of the SEI collections were lovely too. Daisy D and Pebbles and of course Quickutz. And I'll agree with whoever said CADD - they indeed had some fun stuff.

I miss Chatterbox and KI the most. I wish Making Memories, Scenic Route and My Little Yellow Bicycle were still in business. I was a student at the time and couldn't buy any of their collections.

I miss so many of them mentioned! Pink Paislee maybe the most? I miss Archivers and being able to go in and browse, drool over All The Things.
I started scrapbooking in the early 2000s and didn’t know how good we had it! Just a good reminder that everything is cyclical.

I had absolutely NO self control in that place whatsoever. 😁 |

I also miss so many of the brands listed already. I really love Cosmo Cricket and BasicGrey so I've been glad to pick up some pieces through destashes and a couple of stores that carry some older product. One older brand I haven't seen mentioned yet is Mustard Moon. They had some really great paper designs that I loved.
And from the newer front, I also miss Pink Paislee.

OA addicts unite  I miss OA so much!! I just wish we knew what happened. They were doing great, every time I went to their store in Apple Valley, MN it was packed. Lines were selling out, etc. And this was after Archivers closed. I wish there was a company that specialized in finding out what happened with other companies and telling us! It drives me bonkers not to know. There was another company too lately, (can't remember which one) that just stopped updating their site and we are just left to assume they are gone. |

Gone with the wind. I’m with you, it irks me when a brand I love just packs up without explanation. I might be speculating too much here, but I feel like I remember seeing chatter (I’m sure it was here) that OA was facing some potential lawsuits for using copyrighted images without permission in some of their products. That was around the time that they did their mystery boxes and then they were never heard from again. So I’ve always wondered if legal issues might have played a part. |
