I really love the colour palette on this line. It's a little more camping themed than I like so I'll skip some of the embellishments, as cute as I think they are, although I'll definitely be picking up the titles and the puffy stickers along with most of the papers.

I'll be buying all of it. I think so much of it is perfect for my teen grandson's scrapbook.
I always find Cocoa Vanilla's kits so easy to work with.

Pretty typical Cocoa Vanilla, but I generally like Cocoa Vanilla, so this is a yes.
I don't need a huge amount of this theme but I like the aesthetic. Some of the papers, the stickers, and the chipboard are pretty versatile, though.

Cocoa Vanilla and 49 & Market will be the death of my credit card!
I LOVE this whole collection: the colours, the patterns, the images, everything. Not one paper I can't see a use for the front or the back, and usually BOTH! Goes well with the few pieces of their Limitless and Legendary lines still hanging out in my stash. And they actually have an SUV herenot just the VW van from the 60's!

Die cut ephemera
Chipboard stickers
Title stickers

Gah! There is only one paper I don't like (Adventurer), I even like the puffy stickers and I usually don't like word or puffy stickers. Where's my wallet?

I am a fan of this collection. The colors and the embellishments will be very useful for me.
Plus, I used up all of my Cocoa Vanilla Legendary collection last year, so there is plenty of space in my stash for this one. 😉

Yes! So very much yes! And as ways the colors will go well with papers and embellishments I have from previous releases.
I am almost always drawn to CV's lines.
This is the type of "themed" lines I like. Easy enough to use for non camping layouts but themed if you do go that route.
And the colors never just scream boy. I have used CV lines like this for dd as well.
Can't wait to pre order this.

Thank you Chinagirl828 for letting us know about the new release and the contest. Love the colors in this collection and it all looks perfect for outdoors, trips, and boy pages. I even like the puffies although I usually steer clear of them.  |

I like it although feels a little baby boy in the softness of the colors. I have so much outdoor/camping supplies so don't need it.
One little thing that bothers me is there a card in the cut apart that says
"The Outdoors is calling"
Shouldn't it be "are"? Even if "is" is correct it would bother me enough that I would have to change it, cover it up or not use it.
Other than that it is a great collection.
But what I really need in travel are lines for big cities. We've recently been to Chicago, Taipei and Tokyo. Definitely a different vibe from usual travel lines.

That is actually grammatically correct. You are to use singular verb "is". Eta: example is darts. You say darts is a fun game to play. Not darts are a fun game to play. It's a plural noun but with singular context. Isn't English fun lol |

Love the theme and the color scheme, but I hate it when they always mute out the colors with so much white. My outdoor pictures are always so much more saturated than the papers.

A very usable paper collection for me. Perfect for my boys. I need to contemplate if I get the embellishments as we don’t need the camping type stuff but outdoors does work. Plus we went to the mountains this Christmas so it can work well.

 of course it's lovely! I have used CV boy collections for camping layouts because it's perfect. Now I can add ephemera and titles to go with. The patterns are great. The ONLY sticker that bugs me "not all who wander are lost".  Would peel that off and throw it away so I don't have to look at it. |

LOL Or "Wander and get lost in your thoughts." I think we can thank social media influencers for that phase. 🙄 |

Love the Horizon paper. The rest feels very similar to the “boy” lines, which I can’t remember the names of right now. Might pick up a few pieces, but other than the one piece, it’s not a must have for me.
