I remember loving and buying ALL the Basic Grey around 2005/2006. I'm still holding on to the Blush collection and a few bits and pieces of Lollipop Shop. I think that was my favorite. I really need to pull out the Blush and use it!

I loved some of the early BG lines. Baby Boy and Archaic and Hang 10 were favorites for all my little boy photos. I wish I could find more.

I found Spice Market at a LSS yesterday and felt like I discovered a hidden treasure (because I did!).
Black Tie is my all-time favorite but I loved them for years.

I love Archaic! I have used for several layouts and have hung on to every little piece!

So glad it's not just me, I've only managed to use one of the Christmas collections and I've coveted Black Tie, but never seen one in real life, maybe one day we will have our own Antique Roadshow lol!

I have quite a bit of BG. I don't know why but I was in love with their Out of Print collection!

Loved the old lines. I lost interest in it when they changed. I honestly didn't know the company was still in business. I just used a few sheets last month.

I'll go checkout your videos but I just wanted to reply that I am a BG addict as well! Oh and Scenic Route, and . . . .  |

I bought Ambrosia again a few months ago- think that was my favorite. Oh and Curio. I don't like the newer designs at all!!! Sweet Threads was the last one that I liked...

I love BG! I bought two of the warehouse boxes this year. I probably shouldn't ask this question, but what's a warehouse box? I was actually just coming here to ask where you guys buy your BG for the best prices. I scrapbooked the last two weekends and I swear I used BG for 90% of my pages, it just always seem to be the right paper. I need more. |

I have no knowledge of a BG Warehouse Box (perhaps it was something special from their website?) but I do agree with using the papers on layouts-- I like the papers that are mostly/ mostly one color with the distressed look to them; in my opinion, they make great layout backgrounds. I found a pack of 25 sheets at Tuesday Morning and the pattern on one side is really strange, but the other side is a really nice distressed ivory-- I love that paper!!

It is a box full of random goodies for a set price and is available on their website. I believe I ordered my boxes in May and they had another box available in October or November. |

I just looked on their website and they have one available now. It is double the amount I spent, so I wonder if it's twice the amount of product. |

I had WAAAYYYY too much Basic Grey. At my last LSS garage sale I think I had two or three 2-gallon jumbo ziploc bags that I sold that were JUST basic grey. And, I still have some left....lol  |

Crafty Steals and Peachy Cheap have daily 'steals.' I've only seen BG a few times at Crafty Steals.
Scrapbook.com is reasonable. They also have sales and items on clearance.

I think I have 30 lines mostly used.
My all time favorite paper ever was black tie. I loved colour me silly too.
