I was looking at the new releases and I noticed that there are some patterned papers with "confetti" look, like theses papers by Lily bee :
destination
pinwheel
sweet shoppe
I like it ! Did you notice these sort of papers from other companies and do you like it ?  | |

That pink heart paper is awesome. 
I feel like we started to see a bit of this last year, esp with the "bokeh" paper from OA Midway, and the pink heart paper from Glitz Designs.

Yeah, I definitely noticed! OA has some in Midway, too, as well as some other manus from last CHA/mid-show releases. I call it bokeh paper, but confetti paper is probably more accurate. |

Confetti on layouts is one of my most fav trends to do right now, so I am just loving the papers!

I like this as well. The papers feel more random, like the paint splatters and drips. | |

DT members have been putting them in velum bags and placing them on LO's. I haven't goten into that trend yet. I will have to look at the paper lines. I hadn't noticed that they were printed on paper now ,too. |

English is not my mother language so I am not sure at all how to call these papers, "confetti" is a word that I also have in my language but I will check "bokeh" in my dictionary right now, thanks for the information ! | |

I hadn't really noticed that. I've noticed the bokeh ones (OA Midway), but not the confetti ones. I really like those examples you posted! |

"Bokeh" is a photography word. It refers to the out-of-focus area of an image, where ca blurred background looks like circles of color. Not sure if this is a good explanation. You can read about it and find some examples here:

I really like the sweet shoppe one just because the print is smaller, I can foresee myself having problems using the larger bokeh prints |

I love the bokeh/confetti trend. I've been doing lots of confetti pockets in my PL recently and I adored that bokeh paper in Midway. I'm glad to see it sticking around. | |

I like this trend a lot. I'm glad they are coming out with paper that captures the look of confetti. I is time consuming to try to do by hand. | |
