Thank you for posting these, I was just thinking it should be about time for the big CHA16. I went and looked at some of the links on the scrapbookupdate link. The Finnebar metallic acrylic paint looks kind of like what the Twinkling H2Os do on paper. I already have a bunch of the Twinkling H2Os so will be passing on that. The Finnebar brushes with the spatula thingy on the end is also a pass for me. Those just look uncomfortable to use.
The Pink Fresh started sometime during 2015. One of the youtubes I watched sometime along the way the person used a set of their stamps. I get the feeling their new stamps as shown on the sneeks are more for daily planners or the scrapbooking in project life type scrapbooking. I am not really interested in those either, even though I do use that format for extra photos in my scrapbooks.
I certainly hope this trend keeps up because I don't see anything I want to buy so that is a good thing.......It will be interesting to see what Ranger brings this year, Ranger is always the company that sucks me into their new stuff. Also We R Memory keepers sucks me in too. I love their punch boards, LOL! And the fuse, and the minc, and the foil pen, and, and, ect........
Some of the new paper is pretty but I have been not buying paper unless its a really good markdown. I just don't use it that much anymore. For card making I like the 6 x 6 pads because the pattern is scaled down from the 12 x 12 paper. I most times start out a scrapbook page by using gesso over whatever pattern is on it so I have been using up paper better. I just pick one that the colors are close, tone it down with gesso and then use embellishments and color from whatever I have picked.
Paper artsy hasn't uploaded any sneaks or peeks, I really am not sure if they come over the pond for CHA or not. I know they release some new things usually after the new year but they haven't yet. The only place I have found their stamp sets is at Simon Says and the prices keep climbing up towards $30 so they are getting a little expensive for me. I guess I am pretty darn loyal to Paper Artsy, Ranger, and We R Memory keepers. I have had good results with their products which created this loyalty.
Anyway thanks for posting these, I will keep looking at Paper Artsy and Ranger and see if they release any sneeks, but CHA starts the 7th so hopefully the demo videos will start showing up on the youtubes for my watching pleasure soon.
