I do not use photorealistic papers, so nothing is added to the list for me.
The green in that Easter collection... super bright! 😎
Thanks for sharing!

I didn't look closely as they are typically not my thing, and the first thing I noticed was how bright so many of those papers were. I'm happy if they fill gaps for others, but my wallet is definitely safe.

I’m not a fan of photorealistic papers but Technology Overload will make it into my stash.

I think anyone who knows me at all on this board knows I am all about photorealistic papers. Theme papers are my thing, so Reminisce is pretty much always up my alley. I'm glad there must be some other photorealistic lovers out there in the scrap world because here I'm kinda lonely, haha.
Now the Sisters line I do not get the paper choices. Except for 2 sheets of cut aparts there is nothing that says sisters to me. And I need a sisters collection.
Weather the storm - just love most of those papers, as well as Trading Post.
You Matter - don't know what the heck this collection is. Maybe if I see it in person. I couldn't really read the sentiments but the papers did not call my name.
I didn't really glance at the other more obvious themes. I love Reminisce so if I have the chance to pick up some of these at convention I certainly will.

I’m not a fan of photorealistic papers but Technology Overload will make it into my stash. TECHNOLOGY OVERLOAD: I wish some of the pretty blues from the sticker sheet had found their way onto those papers. BROTHERS: I scrap a bunch of elementary school boys, including two sets of brothers. This collection will be MINE… BLACK HILLS: I am always on the hunt for bison themed papers. Would love a few sheets of that paper. VINTAGE TRUCKS: if this came in 6x6”, I would be all over this one. Perfect for cards for my brothers and other men of our “vintage”. |

In the Take Flight collection, I thought the window paper was a toilet bowl at first glance!
I'm also amused at the naming of "Chicken Life."

I will pick up a few sheets from Wonderland (perfect for Disney Alice in Wonderland documentation), a few pieces of take flight and the gold stuff from the grad collection will work wonderful with Xmas papers.

That's a big release! On most of the collections, the colors seem a little too bright for me. But... I liked some of the sentiments in "You Matter", a couple of the "Vintage Trucks" & "Trading Post" papers, undecided about "Grad Squad" and I absolutely love "Chicken Life". Thanks again PaperAngel for posting these. |

I do not use photorealistic papers, so nothing is added to the list for me. Same. In the past I would buy photo papers that I liked but since I use a lot of photos in my layouts, none of them were working. The photos are all professional and hard for me to use. I will pick up a few sheets from Wonderland (perfect for Disney Alice in Wonderland documentation) Some fun stuff here for sure. |

Hi all, just wanted to point out that we're having an issue with the colors on these displaying correctly in the smaller thumbnail view, so you may not want to judge them by the smaller image size. The bright neon green especially is way off what it should be. If you click on the magnifying glass and/or open up the product page, the full size image should show the correct colors. Sorry for the trouble - trying to get it fixed as soon as we can.
EDIT 1/27: Should be all fixed now and the colors are correct on both the thumbnails and full size images.

These really aren’t my style. I do like the Tech overload in theory but I think up close I wouldn’t. And I just grabbed the gamer pack from Photoplay.

My first thought was wow, those are bright, so it was helpful to know the colors of the thumbnails are off. The individual pictures do look less bright. I like that Reminisce offers different themes. The photorealistic papers are not really my style but I like the idea of the black hills one for travel photos. The Easter paper with a woodgrain background and eggs at the bottom is really cute. I kind of like the nautical collection but the papers don't look like they coordinate with each other. The stickers don't look like they coordinate, either. And I wish there was more of a variety in the stickers - not just words.

I usually like Reminisce but the only line I really want is the Tech one.

Uncertain the specific thread referenced, but check out myboysnme & other posters' layouts using photorealistic papers here & there. HTH. |

I'd love to see your pages. I don't know how to use photorealistic papers. Here is one of my LO's using Reminisce pp as a background  Horsin Around by Gramma Dee, on Flickr myboysnme has done some amazing pages with photorealistic papers. Thanks for linking those threads, PaperAngel. |

Do I have chickens??? NO
Do I think the Chicken Life paper is awesome?? YES...I wish I had chickens so I could use that sticker sheet!
The Tech collection is probably the most useful to me. I may pick it up if I see it at an upcoming Expo.
I also like the Trading Post collection with the denim and bandana prints. I might pick this one up too.

Thanks for the link PaperAngel! The other photorealistic thought roadblock I need to get over is I didn't take the photo. Thanks everyone for posting/linking examples. |

I used to not like the Reminisce photorealistic papers, but they have some great niche themes. Two that come to mind were beer and breakfast related that I've put to good use.
I only like/would use the Technology Overload - love black patterns and the phones/gamer would be great for pages about the teen in my life.
They are also great for stories where you don't have a photo, like maybe something childhood or ancestry based.

Thanks for your responses. I don't gravitate toward photorealistic papers & wish the graduation line featured silver rather than gold in its color palette. Nothing from this release is added to my wish list.

Now the Sisters line I do not get the paper choices. It seems sterotypically feminine with flowers, butterflies, & hearts. Brothers is random with handprints, pennant banner, puzzle, & acorns. In the Take Flight collection, I thought the window paper was a toilet bowl at first glance! Now I cannot unsee it... I like that Reminisce offers different themes. Agreed. |

Not my style at all. The only thing that I might look into is the Wonderland keyhole paper. Not sure about it, but my daughter is an avid Alice lover. I could maybe do something with that one.
