Does anyone remember when Webster's Pages made actual scrapbook lines? I was just looking at some past projects and thinking about how beautiful and unique their collections were, especially in the early days, like 2009-2013 or so. They were like a softer, more user-friendly version of Graphic45. These were some of my favorite lines: In Love. I did the majority of my wedding album with this one. Nature's Storybook. Seaside Retreat - my all time fave. They started going more "trendy" a few years back but still had very pretty designs IMO. Unfortunately it looks like they're out of the scrapbook business completely (last release was Feb. 2016) and have transitioned to 100% planners. Edited to add that I received a message from WP indicating that a new scrapbook line is planned for Jan. 2018. I'm not a planner person so now have no use for their products. Their offerings look like everything else on Pinterest and Instagram now. I miss the good old days! Was anyone else a fan? Save

I always loved the look of Websters Pages but honestly I don't think I ever actually used any for a page.

I so love Webster's pages. There are still 2 lines I always wanted but never got because I was on a spending freeze and now I cannot find them - Nest and Strawberry fields.
One of my favorite pages ever used one of their lines that had hot air balloons - not the pastel ones but more vivid colors and I used it on a page of my daughter dressed up as Dorothy from Wizard of OZ. It was just the perfect paper for it!

I loved Websters Pages, too, and still have some hoarded in my stash. Not sure what lines they were: long since amalgamated into one or another of my theme bins.
Graphic 45 always intimidated me, b/c I always felt whatever I used the papers for would not live up to the design itself, but WP was easier to use. And their colours were muted, but not grungy.

I never had anything from their lines. I don't think my LSSs carried much. Too bad since, in looking at those pictures, I would have bought some of those papers.

I have never purchased anything from them. My stores must not have carried them, either.

Webster's Pages always had nice and unique designs. That stinks that they aren't doing scrapbook products anymore.

My favorite designer with Webster's was Adrienne Looman. Love her designs. You can still buy some of digital stuff at SnapClickSupply. For those looking for digital products check out ScrapThat at conventions. Here is the link for their facebook page www.facebook.com/ScrapThatNJ/I have picked up 3 collections of 2yrs. Strawberry fields, sweet routine, hall pass. all from Scrap That.

I always liked the look of the papers, but as a 8.5x11 only scrapper at the time, the designs were usually too big. I do like the B sides of Graphic 45 paper and oh how I miss Daisy D's.

I still have a small piece from the bottom left paper in the Nature's Storybook image that has survived several purges. I really liked their papers but I really struggled to use them.

I loved their trims. They were so delicate and sweet. No other company made trims like Webster's Pages. I also liked the Allison Kreft collections. They were fun and vibrant.

I have hoarded the Plum Seed collection. So pretty. This is one of my most favorite lines ever! I never bought very much of it because it was mostly sold out online by the time I found it but I was lucky enough to pick up a few sheets at a LSS. Made one of my most favorite layouts ever with it.

I loved their warehouse sales too. They were reasonable purchases. I have several boxes still available to use and love it!

I bought quite a bit of the stuff because it was so pretty, but never used any of it. It's all still sitting in IRIS cases in my stash.
