Someone I watch on Patreon recently mentioned she won’t buy any more stickers from Bella Blvd, Echo Park & Crate paper. Something changed and the ones in the newer collections are more glossy? Just wondering if anyone else noticed?

I haven't but I'll go through the stuff I've recently bought and see if there is a difference. I usually like die cuts better than stickers because I can move them around before I stick them down. I also am not a fan of the gloss.

I haven't paid attention to that, because the amount of glossy doesn't matter to me.
I have noticed more glitter on stickers, which I am not a fan of.

Some of the recent Paper Person stickers have been shiny, and I'm not a fan of that look.

I haven't noticed, but it doesn't really matter to me. My page protectors are glossy, so it isn't an issue. I have noticed that Vicky Boutin's Color Study papers have a sheen to them, especially the black sections. Again, not an issue for scrapbooking.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed? I haven't bought any new stickers from them in a while. I'm fine with glossy or matte.
I have really liked Bella Blvd. stickers in the past because they had this nice raised edge like you get from a metal die. Unfortunately, there hasn't been a line I've really loved to buy a sheet.

I hadn't noticed a difference in the surface look, but I have realized that the stickers in the sticker books (Echo Park, Simple Stories) are much thinner and more flimsy than the ones on their 12x12 sticker sheets. They will tear if you are not careful taking them off the page.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed? I can’t say that I’ve noticed that. I don’t buy any Bella Blvd but I do buy Echo Park and Crate Paper. My most recent purchases of these two brands was Gingham Gardens but I don’t think I bought stickers - just ephemera. Was it Janet? I remember her saying she didn’t like some Jen Hadfield glossy ephemera.
