I really like the colours in Harvest Market, but the line is a bit too farm themed for my fall photos. I might pick up a few of the papers, but I'll have to see if I can find some other embellishments because a lot of these won't work for me.
I also like Life Captured. This could be a candidate for next year's PL album, but I might have other old lines that I could make work. I'm reserving judgement on this one until I can see it in person.
The Simple Life is an easy pass for me. I like some of the papers, but not enough to purchase.

Life Captured looks very promising but I really LOVE Colour Vibe - I've been wishing for basic embellishments that weren't tied to a theme or a random icon and those look to be perfect.
Simple Life is pretty but I'm not sure the colours would work easily with my photos. Harvest Market is a pass

Life Captured is awesome! I'm also really into Simple Life but I feel like if I got it I might just look at it instead of use it, if that makes sense?

I like the brighter colors in Harvest Market. It's still in the 90s throughout fall where I live so the typical cold looking, fall color themed fall lines rarely work well with my photos. I can picture this line working out pretty good with pics I usually take at our local pumpkin farm.
I also like the generic embellishment packs in color vibe. I am always looking for stuff like that.

I like the idea of color vibe but don’t need anything. I like Harvest Market and might pick up a few pieces. My biggest problem is that personally, I really dislike orange and pink mixed together.

Eh not feeling any of the lines. One is very muted. Would be perfect for older photos.
I may get the autumn stamp set.

TFS! Nothing is added to my wish list from this release.
IMHO Simple Stories somehow managed to make these collections, even the somber The Simple Life, stereotypically feminine with the color palettes &/or abundance of florals & butterflies. I appreciate that Color Vibe embellishments are not themed, but I don't use washi/buttons/florals & already have various sized punches/dies to create basic tags/labels/hearts/stars/arrows as well as enamel dots in those colors.

Thanks for sharing, infochick . Harvest Market-- has too much pink in it for fall scenes around here on this farm. Good thing, cuz I have a wealth of autumn themed stuff from last year's SCT classes. Life Captured-- has a fun Vicki Boutin type look. The calendar cards are cool. I would need two of each of the ones I was going to use, though, b/c I would want the B side as a background for a photo and a couple of the cards. I wish they would not start all the little calendar months on a Sunday, though. If they are not going to date them for 2023, it would be nice to have at least one starting on each different day of the week. We could mix and match the month names at the top. The Simple Life-- has some pretty images. But I am not a fan of the washed out colour and so much grey. I am a sucker for house images though... Color Vibe-- I really love the Winter and Summer sets. The fall seems a bit too grey for me, and the spring too pastel. |

Life Captured-- has a fun Vicki Boutin type look. I had this same thought and I wondered if it would coordinate well with Print Shop. If it looks good together, I might just have to give in and use this line for PL 2023  |

I NEED THAT FALL LINE SO FAST. pink? teal? YES. That hexagon paper would fit perfectly into one of the punches I have. I love a lot of the B-sides too.
Nothing else catches my eye tho

Simple Life would work with so many of my photos. I have lots and lots of fall lines with teal, so it didn't speak to me, but it is a nice line.

Harvest Market is a maybe for me. I love the slightly non-traditional colour palette; the issue is I only like half the papers. Life Captured, The Simple Life, and Color Vibe Season are all definite yeses for me. |

I didn't think I would be specifically hunting for a scrapbook line with pink and teal, but there is something about that intense pink in the fall line that just does it for me. I love the slightly non-traditional colour palette; the issue is I only like half the papers. My issue is the embellishments. Most of them lean just a bit too farm for me, so I'm going to have to get creative and see what I can find in other lines or what I can cut on my Silhouette to work with this. |

Harvest Market - There are a couple papers that I love, especially the ledger with the flower in the corner, and the colors are pretty, but I don't need another fall line.
Life Captured - I am not a project life scrapper so I'm not their market. I don't like the colors and style though.
The Simple Life - I love green and this line does nothing for me. I have a bunch of Simply Vintage that looks like this, and this is not a Simply Vintage line. It is just kind of boring.
Color Vibe Season - I do like the idea of this. I like the shapes, and I do use buttons and enamel dots. The summer line is the best- love the bright colors.
Overall, nothing grabs me, which is unusual.

I really dislike the overly farm/homegrown themed autumn lines. While I know we have some farm peas, we also have lots of city dwelling peas and some of us also experience autumn. This line is an easy pass.
I might pick up a couple of the enamel dot packs from the colour vibe line but most of the embellishments just feel really uninspired and like the things I would have bought 15 years ago.
The colours in the simple life line are quite appealing for the way I scrap but overall the patterns are just not my style. There's a couple of papers that may make it into my cart, but I doubt my stash will miss them if I don't buy anything.
Life captured is my favourite of these lines. I haven't considered yet whether I'll do a weekly/monthly PL again next year, and while this doesn't live up to Hello Today from a couple of years ago, I like this a lot more than the line they have this year. The embellishments are not a good fit for my style, but I think the papers would pair well with things in my stash. This is a maybe for me.

I typically don't care for their "year in the life" type collections, but I really like Life Captured. I could see using this one. The color palette is different and feels fresh.
I also don't care for fall collections in general, but I kind of like some of Harvest Market. That jammy purple color is divine! I could see getting a couple sheets of the acorn/purple paper and one of the pumpkin/aqua plaid paper. I like some of the foam word stickers, too but not enough to warrant buying a pack.
The Simple Life is too dark & creamy for my liking. I do like the black & cream package of florals/butterflies; I would buy if I found it on clearance.
Adding embellishments to the Color Vibe line is great! Hopefully people will be happy with those.
