I am still working on the original Echo Park Pooh release and not having as much fun as I thought I would have using it, so I'll pass on buying more Pooh stuff. Also, it looks almost like what I already have, except I think they changed the color of the balloon Pooh is holding.
ETA: as I am trying to make cards with the original collection, the reason I am not enjoying it, is the sayings are weird... not quite what I want to put on a card, not quite useful for a scrapbook page and repetetive... The non-Pooh sides of the paper is great though.

The baby collection is cute. The other collection looks similar to the EP Pooh collection already out.

So stuff they already released. Got it.
No thanks. I'm not a Pooh fan.

I like the colours of the plaid album and can foresee using that for a Baby album
Some fo the plainer tone on tone b sides are lovely colours but I have absolutley none Ed for the Pooh images and would never use them,not even for a baby.
I do NOT like to use licenced images like this or Mickey Mouse etc

I have no interest in any of the Pooh themed pieces, but there have been some good b-sides in the previous collections and I see some in these releases that I also really like: the tiny orange stars and a random dot, the red wonky grid, and the green hearts. A couple of the stencils also look really useful.

... I do NOT like to use licenced images like this or Mickey Mouse etc Note characters from Winnie the Pooh by AA Milne & illustrated by EH Shepard have been in the public domain since 1/1/2022, following the copyright expiration at the end of 2021. (Likewise, the original Mickey Mouse, Minnie, & other characters from Disney's Steamboat Willie & Plane Crazy that were illustrated by Ub Iwerks entered the public domain on 1/1/2024 after the copyright expired at the end of 2023.) |

I love Winnie the Pooh, but I don’t think there’s anything here I need.

The baby collection is cute but no need. I really love a lot of the sentiments and phrases of the other collection - I imagined making an album about all my friends. But the phrases are extremely redundant and I wouldn't want to use papers with characters & icons which leaves B-sides and I don't like most of the patterns as I am not a big fan of plaid, gingham and grids. Thanks PaperAngel |

I don't have any use or desire for Winnie the Pooh stuff but I appreciate the fact that other people do and that they came out with these collections for those people.
That being said, this is what irritates me about scrapbooking companies-they come up with something new that sells, and they just do it OVER and OVER and OVER!
And that's when the rest of us are sitting here complaining because it's the same old stuff all the time. I feel like EP is really bad about this.
Anyway, that's my two cents for the day. LOL!
Thanks for sharing the new stuff though!

For those that love the WP stuff, I was on the Impression Obsession site yesterday shopping (they are closing - everything is 50% off) and they had some WP stamp sets still available. |

Note the Pooh Bear Plaid 6x8 Album is a larger scale of the reverse side of 4x4 Journaling Cards from the (first) EP Winnie the Pooh collection (& similar to the Peek A Boo Plaid, which replaces the red stripe with orange, in the March release EP Winnie the Pooh Baby collection). |

I just don't have any use for Winnie the Pooh. Not even in my Disney albums.

Love it all! But it isn't anything I need right now. I didn't realize EP makes non-Christmas albums. Thanks for the info, PaperAngel! |

... A couple of the stencils also look really useful. I agree the stencils in this release are versatile patterns that could work for any subject. Luckily, I already have a non-wonky version (i.e. perfectly round dots, symmetrical astericks) from past Echo Park or Carta Bella collections. |

My favorites are geometric patterns, such as plaids, grids, stripes, dots, etc. Which patterns do you prefer? Pretty much every other pattern - I love dots & stripes! Ha! Circles, clouds, sunbursts, flowers, wavy lines, hearts, ledger, newsprint, etc. I would probably use a lightly printed grid as a background or for journaling. I think it has to do with right angles - the pictures and the base page are square so I struggle to incorporate those patterns onto my pages. I went through my gallery here - I used gingham once as a background and a small piece of grid paper to anchor a page title. Everything else is a free for all. ha!! |
