I love the skulls in the anchors, and the shark papers, and really wish I had more photos that would work with this line. Love these too. I'm thinking some would be good for Adventureland scrapping like Pirates of the Caribbean and then the Tiki Birds. |

May
EP Bible Stories - I'm not Christian, so no.
EP Little Explorer - I really like the colors. I have a lot of zoo lines already but I think this color scheme is pretty fresh for animal stuff so I'll probably buy a few pieces of it.
CB Pirates (by stevenduncandesigner) - I have no use for a pirate theme but I love, love, love this line. I'm getting the stripe, the sharks, and the skull and crossbones. I'm also getting the parrot one, although I'll probably never use it. It will go in the "never going to use but wow, is it awesome" pile.
June
EP Wizards & Company - I have no need for it.
EP Dino-Mite - I already have a bunch of dinosaur stuff that I like more than this.
CB Happy Crafting (by stevenduncandesigner) - I wanted to like this more than I did. I do like the supplies and the album paper. I'll definitely buy this, though, because I have a bunch of scrapbook themed stuff to scrap and the other two lines I have lean heavily on pink. This color scheme works better with my photos.

Thanks for your response. Like many of you, I appreciate the color palette, new theme, & concept (ie mini collections with a core of shared products) of Bible Stories. I also like the color palettes & non-wonky stripes/plaids in most collections, but not the heavily distressed edges in Pirates or the obligatory stereotypically feminine with an abundance of florals (including both stencils!) Happy Crafting collection. I might pick up a bit of the EP Wizards & Company line, but I do have their previous lines in this theme. I have lots of Harry Potter pics from Universal Studios that would be on theme, although I wish they had mixed up the imagery or colour scheme a bit more. I'll likely stick to the embellishments this time. ... I have that exact EP Wizard and Company collection from a few years ago, and so many of the phrases have 'magic' on them that I am having problems finding a way to use them, so that's a no from me. I count 16 uses of the word 'magic' just on the cut-aparts... Agreed. Wizards & Company appears a reiteration of the prior Witches & Wizards and Witches & Wizards No. 2 collections. Given it isn't named Witches & Wizards No. 3, I expect a new color palette, icons/sentiments, stencil designs, & stamp imagery. |

Don't know how I'd ever actually use it, but OMG! it's just so cute/unique/charming, I just have to have it in my stash nevertheless... |

Happy Crafting is my favorite of the new collections, but I already have the Doodlebug and Simple Stories collections like that and don't need more.
