I really do appreciate those of you who post these releases for us, Really, sincerely I do. But after days and days of rain and gloomy weather, and snow in the coming week's forecast, I just couldn't do it. Between this post and the Photoplay release, I just couldn't look at all those spring papers. I tried, honest I did. I gave it that old college try. But I just couldn't do it . . . . .  |

Here, There, and Everywhere looks like someone took all the overused icons and put them in one line... butterflies weird retro van check bicycle with flowers in the basket wonky rainbow swans hello dream big two types of cameras pink typewriter random macaron, why not. The only thing missing is 'best day ever' but I can't see what is in the sticker book so there is a possibility it's there too  Don't forget the damask and chandelier lol |

Chandeliers were big in scrapping when I started 20 years ago. I could never figure out how to use them then and I have no desire to use them now. |

Thanks for your responses. Like many of you, I find these releases repetitive/predictable/formulaic with minor updates (e.g. coral instead of pink). While I like the mid-century mod stencil ( Scribbles), nothing is a must have (since I already have the same/similar in my inventory). |

First off I need 4 sheets of that rainbow paper on Dream big little one girl right now.
Other than that the florals are too much. So many florals. I do not need more florals.
I am glad these companies are still putting out collections even if they are too similar to what I have tons of already.

I liked the patterns on the Fourth of July paper. I also have about 8 years of baseball to scrap and I liked Home Run. Agree - I like Steve Duncan's designs in general. I don't need any 4th of July stuff, but I may grab one or 2. My son is past his baseball days, but I have YEARs and YEARs of pictures and this is one of the better baseball collections I have seen so I will definitely be buying some of Home Run. I would have liked a travel collection by Steve Duncan - his are so good - representing something other than generic road trip travel. I feel like EP and CB have done several generic/road trip/national parks kinds of themes and its time for something else. |

I want ALL the solid packs. All. Of. Them. January: I am sure I'll get the baby sets. Probably all 3. Definitely Our Baby. February: Definitely the Disney paper; between my plan to go again, and wanting to scrap my niece & nephew's trip, can never have too much Disney  May get Dream Big Boy, because I love the colours & the B sides. And it's great for my nephew in general. Don't love the girl colours. Also love colours in Life is Beautiful & Here, There & Everywhere. So I may well get them. Normally love Steven Duncan by My Favorite Things does nothing for me. March: Yes to Here Comes The Sun; no to the other one. Yes to the baseball collection; I have no baseball paper & we went to a Mariners' game last year; may go to another one this year. Likely yes to Let's Go Travel; I have to decide between this one & the other one. Or maybe I will get both; who knows. April: None of these are useful for me. Sometimes I'll use a Fourth of July collection for travel pages when I go to the US, but it needs to be the right kind. I want the colours, but not too many flags & such. This one goes a bit TOO patriotic for my purposes, at least for now (would work if I was able to fill a bucket list item & get to DC). |

Has anyone sampled the Carta Bella Designer Cardstock released last month? If so, does it feature CB's signature luxe texture? Please share your review. TIA. |

Had a quick peek at the titles that sounded more like my thing and they're all very tasteful and lovely, but not me. I seem to have the tastes of a 12 year old.

It's above the word 'happy' on the chipboard sheet |

My LSS got in the Bee Happy line. I bought the 6x6 and the sticker sheet. I made May Day cards to send to friends/family since I did not send Easter cards. I include corny “bee” jokes for the little kids. I did the same at St Patrick’s Day with SPD jokes. DS’ girlfriend tries to explain the jokes/puns to her Argentinian mother. She is still confused! I’m curious to see how the 🐝 jokes go.  |
