What is your "OMG whyyy did I buy?" paper collection?

That is pretty but I would find it hard to use also.

I usually do ok using what I buy but DH also buys for my stash (at flea markets, yard sales, thrift stores) and there have been some that I've really struggled with. I did just go through a paper pad he bought and put a bunch of it into the donation pile

The worst paper pad, was a Tim Holtz one, I think it was vintage Christmas or holiday themed, DH bought on Amazon, that looked like someone rubbed soot on all the papers, it was soooo dark and grungy, I did not use any of it... it might have been this one.  

I bought an Imaginesence, or however you spell that brand, collection once that was school themed called Geek is Chic. The patterns were cute, but it was coated in some kind of glossy plastic and nothing wanted to stick to it, and you couldn't write on the papers...  Since I bought it online I didn't know about the coating  until it arrived in the mail.  I don't think I ever used any of it... 

Paper with an image on it.... in a corner or half of the paper....cookies, a palm tree, a cocktail, a bbq grill, a waterfall, a piece of luggage, an airplane, a spoon, etc... on it. 

I've always had a hard time scrapbooking around a "built in" image. I finally stopped buying paper like that, and donated the paper that I had like that....because I never used it.

A few years ago I bought a couple of Graphic 45 collections. They were pretty and art deco but I only used a few sheets. Lesson learned don’t buy papers with a lot of images.

And then there was a paper pad at Michael’s by Amy Tangerine. Ended up being way too bright and cutesy.

Pretty much any Photo Play collection. I generally like their themes but I have a terrible time working with their stuff. In the collections I've purchased, the colors did not match like there would be 2 different reds that didn't go together. I stopped buying their stuff a few years ago.

I currently have this Wildflower collection by Simple Stories which is BEAUTIFUL but I am struggling with it a bit and made a mental note to not buy collections like this in the future.

Mine is a few Mintay paper packs. What was I thinking?
They are beautiful, but Im not a fussy cutter of their accents, nor do I use paper like theirs very well on layouts.

I have this one as well. I made sure to get the paper pad, plus extra open stock paper and all the journal cards. The way I stocked up, it was like I was going to use it on EVERYTHING. I think I have used 2 sheets...if that.

I actually have a ton of Prima. Some of it is really beautiful but I struggle to use it because of the lack of embellishments. I also feel like my photos are not really formal enough for the papers. I feel a challenge coming on--cards or a layout, some of it is going to get used.

All of this. I thought the color blocked SEI was my style, but I haven’t managed to use much at all. Just got rid of even more of it this weekend. I had forgotten about Paper Pizazz! I got rid of most of it ages ago except I think there are some solid metallics and stripes in my scraps. I also just donated a bit of KI Memories. The only bit of it I kept I put in my paper for vintage type photos. 

Echo Park 'That's My Boy' collection. While a few of the papers were easy to use, sooooooooo much of it was hard to use. And the embellishment packs were really hard to use.
