My favorite thing about this collection has to be the color tones. They're beautiful.
I have always love PP...even from the very beginning (and they have changed a lot since then). This line is beautiful!

I really like the vintagy feel of this collection. The diagonal stripe looks wonderful with that tag and banner! It seems strange that there are no alphas included, but it's still a very pretty set!
I felt the same when I first saw this collection, it's so beautiful!!! And yes - why no stamps???!!! Love your cards, thanks for the chance to win!

Ashley I love your cards! This collection was at the top of my list too! I usually gravitate towards the very traditional colors of red and green. I love the color combination and the ephemera! Thanks for a chance to win! Happy Holidays!
Oh my gosh, I love this collection! I adore PP, love vintage and am a card maker, so you had me from the first minute. I would dearly love to win this collection, please put my name in the hat!
Merry Christmas and thanks for the chance,
Maureen
I agree, I love the ephemera on this collection, just so fun and great for all kinds of projects besides scrapbooking/cards. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I agree - this one needed alphas! Love it otherwise!
Love the retro look.
Oh my, this is such a wonderful, vintage collection, Love it!
Lovely cards you made with this beautiful collection!
I love the vintage look of this collection.
Love this collection, wish it was available near me, thanks for a chance to win it!
Stunning collection! Until I read your review I did not realize that there were no stamps... you are right, it would have been a great addition. I don't mind the lack of alpha stickers which are easier to colour, mist or die cut.
I'm a fan of that vintage feel too!
Beautiful! Would love to win!

I also like the vintage feel of this line. I also like the way you used some of the tags on your cards. I do like lines that seem to have items that help you make your cards or layouts.
Love the vintage feel of this and I love how you bundled things all up with twine - so fitting! This is my fave Xmas collection to date.
I LOVE everything Pink Paislee releases, and this is no exception. Your cards are very pretty!

Love it!!!
Definitely my favorite Christmas collection of this year-I love it all.
I have a few of the papers in my kit from Paper Bakery. Not really Christmas papers I'm drawn to as I love the traditional colors. Yet I love stepping out of my box to try something out of my comfort zone! I love your cards! Very inspiring!
Loving the color combination and vintage embellishments in this collection.
I love this line, all those soft colors and designs, amazing!
