There's a sneaky peek at the papers on their website! Hopscotch

Ok, I love BG but I don't like this collection...the colors don't appeal to me at all...this might be one I have to see in person to decide if I like it or not. Even the designs look off for BG paper...

Same here. Some of the patterns interest me, like the word search, but I will probably buy 2 or 3 sheets and pass on the rest of the line (exactly what I did with Kioshi.)

And... they took it down. You'd think they would realize that we are stalking their website, and if they post something early, we'll find it.

I just checked the website and the hole line is posted. It's cute and a little more whimsical than they usually do.

I didn't like the look of the preview, but when you see the collection/specific papers, it's pretty cute!

Watch the video presentation of the collection. I think you get a better idea of the colours and patterns. I like it, it looks fun and happy and not too mushy Valentine's.

pass - but I have been saying that for a while - the most recent collection I bought was Wisteria. For some reason, I am not feeling BG like I was a few years ago.

I'm another one that's going to pass on this one. Just doesn't appeal to me.

I did watch the video and it just sealed the deal for me. Not buying any of it.

The last line they had that totally got me was Wander. I'm just not a big BG fan but every once in a while they have a line that I can't live without. Unfortunately, this new one is not one of them.

I'm not a fan of that color combination. That's ok, I need to stop spending!

Like just about every BG line there are some papers I like and some I don't. I like the solids and some of the small prints in this one. I'll have to wait and see it in person and see what some people can do with it. I really didn't like Obscure but some people did some awesome inspiring layouts. I didn't like most of Cupcake but I love the layouts I did with it. So I've learned to not form my opinion too quickly because something might come along to inspire me and I'll have to buy some of it.

I am a BG-a-holic! The only line I haven't gotten as of late is Marjolane....that's because CURIO came out and I had to have every single piece of it!!!! I like Hopscotch. It's cute and not too mushy for Valentine's Day. I'd like to see it in person before I commit to buy!!!

Keep the feedback coming! We love to hear it! I have a couple examples of projects using the line up on my blog as well for those who want to "see it in action." I love that this is something a bit different for us

I think it's really cute and I will more than likely get some. That being said, please Basic Grey do another boy line, preferably in primary colors. Thank you.

I don't think I'll be getting any of this line. Don't really like the colors and the patterns seem too busy.

I can see this line for little girl pictures... but I don't have a little girl. Should be in my LSS soon so I won't judge too much til I see it IRL.

i like it. i think it is in keeping with what is "trendy" right now. not sure if i will take the plunge or not. suddenly, everything seems like a big deal since my LSS closed down. sigh. another one bites the dust.

I can't decide on this one, although I like the embellies much better than the papers. I really like both brads and the pops and the epoxy butterflies, and I love every bloomer that comes out..with the papers, I like a few of them, but I mostly like the B side better..not sure, although I agree with Liz, I can see using this with pics of my daughter more than Vday pics..I really love the colors though, those blue buttons are gorgeous!
