... Bea's collection is a doppelgänger for Maggie Holmes. ... Agree ... On a side note, I'm SO happy AC is bringing their big sticker books back. Note the $6.99 stickers books in this release appear the same as previous releases, not the former huge sticker books with 30 sheets/800-1500 stickers & an elastic closure (like that one & pictured at the bottom of this PE blog entry).

... Is anyone else doing a double-take at the $4.99 price tag for a small package of enamel dots? Yikes. Unfortunately, $4.99 appears the current industry MSRP for 60 count enamel dot packs (e.g. EP - Happy As Can Be, CB - At Home, SS - Crafty Things).

Thanks for your responses. I'm not the target audience for AC pattern paper brands, so nothing is added to my wish list.

Vicki Boutin - I love Vicki Boutin, but generally prefer her summer lines less than what she puts out in the fall/winter. There are some great pieces here, and it will work well with what I have, but I probably won't buy everything. The pieces I do love though, I will buy multiples of (rainbow script on black background, text print, etc.).
Shimelle - I love Shimelle's layouts and style, but I didn't really have a use for her last paper line. I will definitely be picking up some of this. The icons are useful, the navy thickers are amazing, and the b-sides will work really with my stash.
Jen Hadfield - it's cute, but I don't really have the photos for it.
Bea Valint - it's too Maggie Holmes for me.
Bo Bunny - I'm in the minority here, but this is the stand out collection for me. I love it! I can see making a couple of layouts with the collection as is, and then using the beautiful black and white papers with all kinds of other collections.

For me, the one I'm most likely to buy is Charmed Chronicles by Bo Bunny because I'm going to a 50th wedding anniversary party next month and I already have some gold papers, and was just thinking I could use some black & white papers with the gold when I work on those photos. So this line is perfect for that. I like a portion of the Paige Evans line--some of the papers with deeper colors---greens, golds, reds. They really do look like they would work nicely with heritage photos.

While none of the collections are must-haves for me, there are a few pieces of each collection that I might get. I'll refer back to this posting to decide what I will buy later. Thank you PaperAngel for keeping us up on the releases. You make it a lot easier to decide on purchases.
