what is something you would like to see a line for????????????? that you struggle to find the right products for............

i would LOVE to see a kids fishing line........
our grandson is OBSESSED with fishing during this time and there just isnt much that is kid friendly or fun.........sigh

My grandkids love fishing too. I always try to snag a few fish papers when I see them come in. I am always keeping a look for out doorsy stuff living Here in MT. Not so much flowery girl stuff!!!

A birthday line more suitable for young adult men. The men's lines tend to feature antique cars, old clocks, men in old-style clothes -- not appropriate for a young adult. So for my son I tend to go with primary colors and/or a dog theme or golf theme. Years ago there was a Simply Stories birthday line that used a lot of browns, darker colors, and had a distressed look. I still have a few scraps. Wish I could find more like that!

Ha ha, unlike Leslee, I love the florals, the brilliant and detailed ones, of which I do have enough already. They do always catch my eye, however.
What I would like to find is Christmas paper without Santa and plaid. Some of the ones that feature the Holy Birth are pretty. I still want more of the rest of the season of sharing to scrap photos all around the holiday. My dd very much dislikes Santa so I don't want any of those in my albums and neither of us care for plaid. So far I have some beautiful G45, but always look for others.

I think it would be cool for someone to make a Disney collection without the "traditional' color scheme we see of red, black, yellow and blue. I think a few smaller/digital companies have done this, but I'm not into digitals.

Mine would be home improvement.  The hammer/saws of today are not the same as lines are still showing as well as painting supplies... 

I also agree with the young adult male for birthday and seriously, just in general! 

There is nothing I am looking for that I am not finding available.  - Just thought of one - motorcycle stuff...but, we are selling 2 of our bikes and I can make do with other papers.

Lots of Dog papers are out there and Disney, just bought some paper for Father's Day, can use generic for Mother's Day, DD graduated, so no more school is needed and have leftover Graduation stuff I can use when she finished college (2yr Technical College).

Oh yes!  I agree.  there used to be some papers that were not B/R/Y - I think EK Success made some.  I used those for Storytime with Belle and Bippity-boppity-boo and meeting Princesses and I still have some left.  I will get around to those one day.  I have not used the B/R/Y papers for Animal Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studio or Downtown Disney. 
 

I need more Sports papers. Grandkids are all busy with sports and I'm running out. 

Paper Loft has some cute fishing papers but nothing with "kids" on it.  My grandsons love to fish with DS and I would love to see more to choose from along that line as well as dirt track racing

Three products I would love... a bigger line of wrestling papers and I would very much like to see a bodybuilding / physique sport line of paper. My son competes in physique shows and there really isn't any paper for that. I also would love a line of papers for drummers. Can't seem to find that either, lots of band stuff but not much just for drummers.

I do have some of those collections. It seems I'm getting down to the bits and pieces of them. 

We have a store here in Lancaster Co. that has a pretty large collection of sport papers.  With both of our girls older now, we are waiting for the grandkids to get involved.  One grandson plays lacrosse and I've found lots of paper and embellishments for him.  Our granddaughter is in 4-H and not many papers out there for that, but again, the store I shop for sports papers has 4-H too.  They seem to have a lot of the odd papers that no one else carries.  I don't shop there very often and it was closed until recently.

I would like to see more masculine lines also...not just for men, but for young boys and teens.  And, not the bright primary colors.  Something in blues, browns, tans with maybe a nice accent color.  I miss BG!!

Where might this store be? 

I too would like to see more masculine lines - weightlifting, barbells, dumbbells etc....

Usually it seems like whatever I need ends up on the market right after I finish making layouts for it. LOL
I can't think of anything I'm looking for at the moment, although I'm sure there is something. Maybe summer stuff that doesn't say Lazy Summer Days would be useful - my summer days are rarely lazy. 

Oh, I just thought of one - MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). So far I've mostly tried to repurpose karate themed items and papers, but my husband and my nephews have been very clear that it is not the same thing. LOL. I think I found one Jujitsu sticker sheet so far.
