They both have a whimsical look to them that sort of reminds me of Doodlebug, but less cuteness. I slightly prefer Simple Stories. I like bright, crisp colors of red, white, green, and bits of black. My Mind's Eye line is a little too muted for me, but I think I like the Santas better. I typically don't like pink in Christmas lines and both have the color.

I like the MME line better, but honestly would not buy either one. My favorite new Christmas line is Photoplay's Mad 4 Plaid Christmas.

I like the SS one it reminds me of a collection from maybe 8 years ago that I really liked. I still haven't seen a holiday collection that is s must have yet which is fine ask could probably scrap 10 years with all the holiday stuff I already own. That said I am sure my collection will grow at some point this year.

I have been on a plaid kick since last Christmas and still loving it. Eta I just looked it up and I am pretty sure at least a few sheets will be added to my collection this year. |

Last year or the year before that was Heidi Swapp's line. MME and Amy Tan's Cut & Paste lines came out the same time, too, lol.

Don't like either of them. For that season, I prefer Scandinavian brands, mostly because the American brands are ....well, just a bit too American for me. I don't like "Merry Christmas" on my papers. Plus, the colours are generally more to my liking.

I like the MME line, but the journaling cards have rounded corners which I don't care for. I would have considered them for DD.

Years ago, Basic Grey (RIP) had a line with the same name as another manufacturer. BG ended up adding a word to their name. I think it was Gypsy or something like that.
I don't really like either line in the links.

The MME one but not a huge fan of either. This is my first reaction too. Don't like the reds in either line. Think I like the greens better in the MME. |

But if you'd like a look at those brands, bikuben.com has them under "mønsterpapir". They have, of course, many US brands as well, but they also stock papers from European, Australian and (I think) SA manufacturers as well. |

Several years ago there was 2 lines named the same. I can't recall the companies, but the lines were called Twitterpated.

Strange how they have the same name. I guess there are only so many generic Christmas sayings.

I like them both but I think the colors of SS are a bit more fun.
What I am not liking is all the Santa stuff on ALL of the new lines. I am not scrapping Santa type Christmas and holiday pics and for me using Santa is not all that universal as a Christmas theme. |
