Yes, I always love looking at his lines but not my style at all. Too bad since I love pink!

pretty but no where close to my style. They are on point for what I think of when I think Prima though

Twilight wasn't what I expected, given the name.

Twilight wasn't what I expected, given the name. I was thinking soft to darker blues. Not this palette at all.

They’re both pretty but I don’t know how I’d use them. Kind of like what happens with Graphic 45.

Prima has essentially had the same Halloween collection going on three years in a row. It was interesting and different then, now not so much.

I'm not Prima's target audience so nothing from these holiday collections is added to my wish list. TFS.

I’m another on the pretty but not my style bench; however these are perfect for a couple of old Halloween photos I have. Thank you!

LOVE them both but I am a little biased as that is my LSS and I love everything Prima/Frank G. I am happy twilight works with the past two lines as this color combo is a fave! Can’t wait to get my sets this weekend!

Prima is not really my style either, and I'm disappointed there's no black kitties this year. As others have said, it's pretty but nothing I want.

Nope. I expected Twilight to look like - well, twilight. The Christmas line looks a lot like the Halloween line: nostalgically creepy.

This is my LSS also. I picked up a few things from the Halloween line to make cards for little ones in my family.

Can’t wait to get my sets this weekend! If they have them, can you take note of the designs that are in the tag books? I bought the Halloween one last year and really liked it. But this year there's no preview of what's inside.

very Prima. Prima reminds me of Graphic 45, very pretty but not my style.

In the halloween line I like the spider web acetate. It's kind of a cute line, but not my style.
In the Christmas line, I like the little Santa with the telephone. The puffy stickers are cute!

Prima has essentially had the same Halloween collection going on three years in a row. It was interesting and different then, now not so much. I honestly thought the Twilight collection was a re-release of the one from a few years ago. I was mistaken, it is apparently different. The moral of the story is that they are pretty collections, but not for me. Thank you for sharing!

But this year there's no preview of what's inside. Start at about 2 min and 30 seconds in. This Youtuber flips through the tags for Halloween. Later she does the one for Christmas.

Prima has essentially had the same Halloween collection going on three years in a row. It was interesting and different then, now not so much. And the inappropriately called Twilight is actually a step-down from 2022 Luna which found the right balance between black kitties, witchy vibes and pink + soft orange. I was so expecting to see a blue and purple-toned line for Twilight upon reading the name. How disappointing! I loved last year's Luna and the 2021 Thirty One but Twilight is a dud. The originality of the colour scheme is gone. The vintage icons used aren't appealing enough on their own to pull me in. I'm passing on this one with the exception of the chipboard stickers. Hoping for vintage spooky vibes with some darker colours next year. I appreciate the inclusion of soft sage green in Christmas Market but I just don't lean towards the feminine, romantic aesthetic for Christmas so another pass. I do think this line would look beautiful for Christmas baby or wedding photos.

I don’t think I need either of those this year although I like the concept and used up my Halloween one last year.

I absolutely love all the vintage icons but can’t with all the pink.

I do think this line would look beautiful for Christmas baby or wedding photos. I still love this color scheme I’m part of a lot of Halloween groups and the darker tone of this years collection I think makes it a nice complement to the past collections. Also I do a lot of junk journals so the vintage images are perfect. I suppose it’s always hard to appeal to everyone but I enjoy non traditional colors there’s already a lot of traditional Halloween out there so this line is a great addition to my collection.

They're both very pretty but I really don't need anymore Halloween or Christmas lines. The spider-web acetate sheet is really cool though. I did like their last Halloween line with the black kitties Chinagirl828 and bought a few pieces of that one. The Christmas line reminds me of an old Daisy D's collection with vintage images. I still have quite a bit of that one left so I don't think I'll buy any of this line. Thanks for showing us pantsonfire.

The Halloween line is very pretty, but I'm not going for that look with all the pink. I do like lines that have darker colors of flowers like dark red and dark purple. Same for the Christmas line, EXCEPT my grandparents had a pink house, so this would be perfect for a couple of pages.
ETA: The older collection from Prima; Midnight Garden. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE for some more sophisticated, pretty Halloween pages.
