I've been sooo excited for the Yes, Please line from Amy Tangerine to come out. It looked like it would be much like Sketchbook (which I adore), with similar bright colors and watercolor feel. (I've never been a fan of brown and earthy colors, so the last line wasn't as thrilling for me.)
And then in today's mail I got a Yes, Please daybook. What a great way to experience the papers before I can get my hands on the line, right? Only . . . It was very orange. And brown. 
Aren't the same papers used in the daybooks? Am I mistaken about what the Yes, Please line consists of? Maybe I need to go back and rewatch the video to make sure it's what I was thinking it was. |

I bought a bunch of it at Archivers today. It looks pretty pastelly and watercolory to me. The only brown I really see is a bamboo mat type paper. | |

No, it's a very happy colorful line. I don't like brown either, and this was my favorite line of products at CHA.
I didn't see her daybook when I was at CHA, so I don't know how it compares to the rest of the Yes, Please line, but I just looked back at the video we shot at CHA for Paperclipping.com, it looks like lots of happy bright colors to me. |

You know what!?!? You're right! It says "Yes Please" right on it, but when I looked it up here, it says "Yes Please Ready Set Go Daybook." No wonder I'm confused! 
Here's what I got. Wishing now that someone had thought not to name two different things from the same designer the same thing!

I believe it's a mix of the papers and colors in the line & some other designs and papers that go into the daybooks! I guess wait and see to figure out if your gonna like it or not! |

I have the daybook and all the papers. I don't think the daybook is representative! The colours of the paper are really lovely. Pinks, soft blues, hints of orange but not too much and I really didn't notice a dominant brown colour (which is a colour I usually avoid). |

What's a daybook? Is it the same as a day planner? |

OMG, BG porn- awesome!!
tinkgumby- the names certainly are confusing, but I can promise you that the new Yes, Please collection is quite bright and watercolor-ish and reminds me very much of Sketchbook! I don't have any here on hand, but I did see it CHA and took a ton of photos of it in the booth.  Yes, Please at CHA |

I looked at the "Yes, Please" daybook at the Archiver's by my work tonight... it has a camera on the front. You definitely got the "Ready, Set, Go" one. |

Thank you for the replies (and the scrapbooking porn, ha!)! I'm happy to hear that the Yes, Please line is indeed what I thought it was! If only it would get stocked!
Oh, and for the one who asked - the daybook I'm referring to is like a small (maybe 5x8) notebook with several different colors/patterns/shapes of paper in it. Sort of like a smash book. |

Loved the BG porn and yes please porn
I had another look and the only things in the collection I would be able to resist are the ribbons (still using up my American crafts excess) and the sewing patterns ( is it only me that thinks it would be just as easy to do these yourself) | |

No, it's not just you. I am waiting to see how much they are going to cost. That will be the deciding factor for me.
I can't wait for this line, but I absolutly DREAD trying to search back and forth through the store to figure out which patterns are in the collection pack and which ones have to be purchased seperatly. |

What happened to that scrapbook paper typo thread? This isn't a typo, but I feel like it should be added to that thread, it's in the same vein | |
