I like some of the words (thickers?), but they are part of a group package. I don't care for the rest of the stuff in the group package. It's a no for me.

Not a single thing is on my list to buy, or even spend more than 2 seconds looking at.

Why does that all feel so so familiar? I have zero need for more mixed media supplies and I feel the market is already over saturated with dies, stamps and stencils, paints etc. The ephemera/die cuts are just rehashes of the ephemera from previous collections and I have them all. So I am not excited at all. I was excited when I saw this thread. Dang.

I am going to buy the white foundations paper pad. I want to try more mixed media with inks.
I like the watercolor palettes, too.

I've been wanting to buy the Foundations paper pad so maybe that plus a stamp set. Thanks PaperAngel. |

I like to keep at least one pad of foundations cs on hand but that is not new either. Surprised with all the paints they didn't include the black foundations. The only thing that intrigues me is the foiled vellum pad.

I am really confused by this line as it seems like it is a largely a release of what has been already out there. I am usually most excited about the paper and embellishments, and I already have (or have had and used) these.
I do like the chipboard titles, the branches die, and some of the stamps. I will pick up the titles, but not sure about anything else. I know VB will make amazing things with all of this, but as much as I try I just really can't get into a lot of mixed media.
Does anyone know if VB is getting another more traditional paper collection for spring/summer or is this it?

Note that stamps from VB (& all American Craft brands) are acrylic, not photopolymer. |

Hmmmmm very interesting. I don’t need most of the mixed media things as I have a lot that I use fairly infrequently.
I only like one set of stencils, as I feel like I love seen the others before.
I’m interested to see her reveal before I decide.

I thought this looked like lots of her previous collections when I saw it the other night, and I either didn't like them enough to buy them at time, or still have enough of them left over that I don't need to buy them now. The one exception is the alpha thickers as I love that font. I have a mostly unused pack but I might cave and pick up another set.

I like the Notepad stamp and die set,but I wish there would be no words on the stamps.

I agree that this is kind of odd as I have a lot of this already as well.
I do love the font of the thickers, and will likely get the note pad stamp and die set. I hope this isn't her only "collection" for the spring though, Really hoping a paper collection comes out as well. I think the watercolor 6/8 paper would be a great gift for kids though...thinking I might buy two of these and do them with my niece. I have also been wanting paint markers but not sure AC can do them better than Posca.

I also think she probably will be coming out with a new paper collection too. She has a lot of fans, all she has to do is make a video and people will rush to buy what she is using.

I like the bright colors of her lines, but I still have 5-6 of them, so I probably do not need more.

Feels like she's leaning into the current popularity of 49th and Market watercolor aesthetic.

Thanks, I must have missed that. IIRC past VB collections have offered 12x12 papers both individually/by the sheet & as a collection/pad. |

Yes...the past few years I seem to recall that she has had a summer/travel line around this time, and then we usually get other releases from her in fall and Christmas. Usually it is the full traditional AC release with lots of papers both open stock and as pads with coordinating embellishments. I am hoping that this is just a restock of her mixed media products and that we will still get the paper line. That said, I do tend to prefer the fall lines and I still have tons of VB to play with so perhaps saving the money and space is a good thing. |

Thanks for your responses. Nothing from this repackaged release is added to my wish list.

Did you watch her Friday Night Live (FNL) where she explains this new release and shows all the products? Much better than I initially thought. I’ll be getting some of it. Going to be sold on an end aisle at Joann in May.
