The styles of these two companies really appeal to me. I’ve heard Mintay mentioned here, but not sure if Scrapboys has been. Both appear to be Polish companies, but some places in the US seem to carry products of one or the other of the two companies.
Unfortunately, the LSS closest to me doesn’t carry them.
Does anyone here use their products, and if so, where is the best place to order them, please?

I think I got Mintay from ACOT recently. Not familiar with the other line, sorry

I don't gravitate toward this aesthetic & never purchased from either company. However, Mintay is readily available at ACOT & SB.com. HTH. |

Thank you to all of you for the replies.
I hadn’t realized that Ciao Bella has a similar style, too. That’s at least another option. Looks like I may need to place an order quickly if I am going to get anything from Frantic Stamper, though.

... I hadn’t realized that Ciao Bella has a similar style, too. That’s at least another option. ... Given the industry is in its stereotypical feminine, overabundance of florals, & vintage-y era, there are numerous brands with this aesthetic. In addition to Mintay (see links in my post upthread) & Ciao Bella, which is also available at ACOT (ETA: here), you may also like: 49 & Market - Joanne Bain collectionsPrima Marketing

I ordered from Frank Garcia once and I was really happy with them. His shop carries a lot of that style.
ACOT carries all of the manufacturers PaperAngel mentioned. You also might want to look at the company Stamperia. I don't like all of their stuff but they've had a couple lines that are real winners. ACOT has great customer service and they have lots of good sales.
I needed some old Ciao Bella lines once and I found a lot of it on Etsy.
I've never heard of ScrapBoys but I will look it up.
Mintay type scrapping isn't really my style. When I use it I do a lot of fussy cutting. But I have bought a collection from most of the companies PaperAngel mentioned and it is fun to play with them.

I believe you can order from Simple Scrapbooks Pleasures in Colorado Springs. They are very nice. I can shop there so I don't order anything online.
Edited.. looks like their website isn't up and running... I know from FB they do order stuff for customers.. so I don't know... this is sounding more like a pain than anything.. lol

I’ve never heard of Scrapboys so I searched on google. The images showed you could buy that brand from Spellbinders. I checked and yes, they do carry it.

Thanks to everyone for enabling me!
Yes, they do have some at Spellbinders, but only a few of the lines.
However, I need to figure out if this would just be an impulse buy because I love the papers, or If I would actually use them for layouts. I know that the papers aren’t everyone’s style, but I wanted them the moment that I saw them, with the exception of the grunge line. Unfortunately, my craft room is filled with pretty papers that I bought on impulse, the vast majority of which are still waiting to be used. I could easily use them to make cards and mini albums, but I also really need to stay focused on my scrapbooking, which I finally got back into only about two months ago.
I was never really a big fan of florals, but for some reason these papers are calling my name…..
