Not sure how to link them here because I can only find them in their saved Creativation Instastory. I'll pick up a few pieces of the Outdoor and Space collection and that's about it.
IMO these collections have a very commercial appeal and I wouldn't be surprised if they show up at Paper Source along side some of their other products already carried by PS.

I love what I can see of the Bliss line and I thought parts of the Penelope collection were cute. The other collections didn't call to me much. Those puffy alpha stickers with the florals from the Bliss line? All the heart eyes!

Dumb question, how do I watch the saved instastory? I am following them on Instagram?

Is it me or do the products not have the normal "MME" feel to them? It seems like something is different.
That being said, I do see parts of the Wander and Bliss collections that I definitely will be looking to purchase.

Thanks for doing their job for them, nicolep! I like the wander/travely one.

Very unimpressed. I usually like them so there must be something different about these lines for me not to like them. Perhaps when I get a better look at them. Thank you for sharing these images.

FYI, the lines are up on the MME website.

Interesting. The first two have a throwback MME feel to them...almost everything they've made lately has been vomited with pink, but these remind me of the lines from a few years ago. I really like the space one, but I picked up 2 of an Echo Park or Carta Bella collection from the EP booth at the Scrapbook Expo in November, so I don't need more. At the time I picked it up, I didn't even think about the fact that I still hadn't scrapped our trip to Texas where we went to Nasa...but it was the first thing I thought about when I got home with it and took it out to look at it more closely. I really like the accessories here (and their ephemera is more plentiful for the price than EP...I don't buy theirs anymore because it's just a repeat of the sticker sheets in different sizes for A LOT MORE money) so maybe when it becomes more readily available, I'll use some of my stockpiled points at ACOT for the things I don't buy from EP anymore.
ETA: Why is everything travel related lately done in stereotypical camping colors with a camping feel to it? I love the colors in them, but they need a splash of brighter colors and to be more universal...people do more than camp when they travel.

They are more like the collections that MME was known for before the foil craze took over and everything they did became pink with gold foil. I wouldn't call it vintage MME (because I don't feel like anything I own could possibly be vintage since I haven't been scrapbooking ALL that long), but it's more like what they were known for when I first started scrapbooking in 2011.

And just in case you run out, there is a “Best Day Ever” card. 😂

It's not you- If you hadn't said, I would NOT have thought they were MME products, at all. none of them appeal to me at all, but I don't have kids, or scrap kids. It looks to me like they jumped on the 'childish-looking' bandwagon along with most of AC.

I totally agree that it no longer looks like the "MME" that I had grown to love...in fact my very first thought was how much they've changed... Their warehouse box sale was the only one I didn't miss out on during last year and even then I just wasn't blown away by most of the collections. I don't do change very well!

I agree that these new collections look a bit too childish for my taste, maybe they have new designers? the graphics just look different

Not anything I’d used. I won’t be scrapping any of those themes in the near future. I agree with some of the other posters in that these collections don have MME’s usual look and I’m not too fond of the change.

I can't really tell from the pictures if I like the space line or not. I usually love a good space paper (we watch a lot of Star Trek...)
I'm not digging Wander.
I like the heart paper from Bliss and the roses. Go figure since they are pink and I've sworn off any more pink stuff.
I can't really tell about Good Vibes but it has a rainbow paper which I seem to hoard, I am an 80s girl at heart...
No on Penelope (and I have girls).

It's hard to tell but I think I'll like several pieces out of each of these lines!

I will buy a few pieces from wander, the navy blue ones and might buy some of the space line, but the rest is a hard pass for me. They have changed so very much from when they first started, do they still have the very thick textured paper? I haven’t really seen any of their lines for a bit I don’t think, or they have changed so much I didn’t realize it was theirs. They used to be heavy on doilies and plaids and florals didn’t they? More vintage and shabby chic then this nonsense, right?

There's nothing that really leaps out at me from these collections. I might have a closer look if scrapbook.com gets them but at this stage I'm happy to pass.
