... So many choices from one release! How many collections to they release in one year? I was wondering the same (& hope one of its frequent customers can answer)! |

Last year they released 3 collections, Sunkissed, Hey Summer, Comfort & Joy. This year they have already released 3: Good Vibration, Well Read, You are My Sunshine. I guess there might be at least 1 more - like Christmas. |

There's a lot to like here. And it is confusing with so many choices. But I'll have to get some of this. And like skycrashesdown, it reminds me a great deal of Sassafras. Thanks PaperAngel for showing us this new collection. |

It's really cute but before I invest a lot of money I would like to know more about the texture of the paper if anybody could please tell me. Is there a difference in the texture/thickness between the single and double sided? Is the paper shiny or slick? It's hard to explain. There is no texture. It's a smooth cardstock. There is a tiny bit of sheen to it, but only on the dark papers. They changed from their own printer to a local print shop last fall- so it's not a shiny as it used to be. My last order, the papers were really nice, they weren't super slick like they were last year. You can try and order just one sheet and try it out. Or maybe email them and see if they will send you a sample. I was wondering the same (& hope one of its frequent customers can answer)!

Are all papers (whether single- or double-sided or in a paper pad or by-the-sheet) smooth, non-textured, & matte (except for a slight sheen on dark papers)? Does the company always offer so many paper options in its releases (as with the You Are My Sunshine collection)? TIA. |

Every collection is loaded - some collections have like over 100 options (including all the paper options, 20+ die-cuts and 20+ stickers). |

Sassafras Lass was my first thought too! This might scratch that itch and is quite different some so much of the same old same old that’s on the market these days.

This definitely reminds me of Sassafrass Lass! Looking forward to August (I don't usually do pre-orders). TFS!

It's ok if you are, but I've noticed you only comment and post on PLS stuff and seem to know all the ins and outs of it. |

No, I'm a good friend, I live just down the road from the owner. I've known her for years. |

Thanks for your responses. While not the target audience for this brand, given its feminine, floral, & vintage aesthetic, I appreciate the versatile labels, bracket diecuts, etc. Nothing is added to my wish list.

I love this collection, but the first time I looked at it I was too overwhelmed to make any decisions. I'm a double-page scrapper and usually purchase entire collections if I love them, but this was just too much for me. I finally went back and decided to look at the single pages instead of the collections. That made it a lot easier to make my decisions. I ended up ordering two each of the one-sided pages that I could see myself using, as well as some of the die cuts, stickers and cut-aparts. I wish she would offer solid (or mixed media semi-solid) papers that match the beautiful colors in her collection. missmouse maybe you could pass along that suggestion.  |

I ended up ordering a few of the Cut-Aparts, they are inexpensive (99 cents) and give you the feel of the collection, for example the tags have most of the patterns on them.

They tagged me on Facebook this morning to say that the digital collection is up, if anyone is interested. Even though it is considerably more expensive than digital only stores, I’ll still be buying the papers and some of the embellishments. I will buy some more after my next payday.

Thanks for the information. The OP has been updated with the link ( here). Happy scrapping! |

I love their new line! I pre-ordered a bunch of it. Can't wait to get it.
Also, thanks for sharing that ACOT is carrying their lines, that will be really nice. I love supporting them.
