It looks like Simple Stories has some new offerings on their website. I have to say that this is the first time in quite awhile that I am really excited about their releases. I absolutely cannot wait for both Travel Notes and I Am. I think I want everything in each of these lines. There are a few of their mini collections that look really good as well. |

Thanks for sharing these. Overall there are more misses than hits for me in these collections but there are a couple of pieces in the travel line I might add to my wish list.

There are a few papers I would buy, but not the whole collection.

I'm pretty excited about a few of those (Llama Mama, Travel Notes and I am) and bits and pieces of a few more. I love that they've gone to 6x8 paper pads. They are still one of my favorite companies and I really feel like they try to cater to many different styles.

I agree that they cater to many different styles. I really like Travel Notes and pieces of several other collections. |

I really like a lot of their papers, but (to continue my whine from the other thread), they can do a whole mini collection on ST. PATRICK'S DAY! but not one for "work life"?!?!??! UGH. I have dozens of pictures of work events/trips/parties and NO pictures of St. Patrick's. Throw those of us who like our work a bone, hunh scrap companies!?!?!?

I can see myself using some bits and pieces from travel line. I can use simple stories in bits and pieces but never their full lines.

I like some of the travel collection but am a bit wary because somehow the colours always end up disappointing me.

Nothing added to my wishlist. I really like a lot of their papers, but (to continue my whine from the other thread), they can do a whole mini collection on ST. PATRICK'S DAY! but not one for "work life"?!?!??! UGH. I have dozens of pictures of work events/trips/parties and NO pictures of St. Patrick's. Throw those of us who like our work a bone, hunh scrap companies!?!?!? I envision a line with versatile office-inspired designs (eg grids, ledgers) & classic patterns (eg stripes, plaids, dots), each available in an array of non-kid colors (eg navy, grey, black, gold, raspberry) that could be used on a page about any subject. Offer (at least) four coordinating embellishment sets separately - one is work-specific; another high school student themed; another focused on teachers; & the last revolving around the college experience. |

The grids and ledgers, along with woodgrain which could represent desks, is included in SS Snap! Basics line. I love the woodgrain for all kinds of uses, and find the b sides handy for journaling. I thought they also had a work related planner line (Carpe Diem) out last season. Will go look for that. |

I apologize for the rushed post that failed to make my point, which is that it would be easy for manufacturers to fill this need by including a work life themed embellishment set (along with high school, college, etc) as part of a versatile office-inspired collection. The work life theme could include useable phrases (eg "work family," "office party," "bonus," break room," "work hard / play hard," "professional," "this is what success looks like"), work/career quotes, etc. In addition, the company could offer industry specific (eg medical, business, education, food service) sticker sheets (eg medical - stethoscope, thermometer, "do no harm"). |

I love the B sides of almost all the travel papers, always & forever, and plaid dad.
I like the colors in Mama Llama, don't like the llamas.

This is my undoing and I seriously think that I might be in trouble :-( Wasn't there an "I Am" collection before or something close to it? If this is a part two, then I am happy because I missed out on it before.

Travel Notes is my favorite, but, again with Go See Do, and all of the same travel words that are in every travel line.

The older collection is further down toward the bottom of the page. |

This week, SS is showcasing one new line per day on their BLOG Today's line is "I Am". It looks like a nice middle of the road feminine line. I think it could grow on me. I think my favorite item though is the roller stamp with an "I am" line and then a selection of words like "Amazing!" |

Today's feature is "Always & Forever" ine in black/white/gold, with lots of flowers and hearts. Not something I need right now, but I can see this going with ANY wedding theme if I had one to scrap. |

And Travel notes is featured today. I have WAY too much travel scrapping supplies, but I love the colours in this line. Might have to get several sheets of that arrow pp, and I love the green, and the gold with the dots. |

The travel line is really cute, but it's so juvenile. I can see using it for my grandchildren, but not for myself.

I doubt if I'll buy it though, since I'm just not doing that type of scrapbooking anymore. |

I might get some pieces from Travel Notes, Good Vibes and I am but that's about it.
