that is me! I just don't care for Prima. Never really have--although I do have some flowers from waaaaayyyy back and one  set of the wooden embellies. I don't do flowers much and the colors are too soft for me.

BUT maybe you can change my mind?!?!? You know the -----Image  syndrome I have. ImageImage

Show me something made with Prima. Can be yours or something you have seen that has struck your eye!!!

hmmmmmmm can I be swayed??? Image

Hmmmm . . . same here.  Except for some jars of flowers from way back, I don't have anything Prima.   But for some reason, I'm being drawn to the new Cartographer.

It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

Re: Oddball
I don't use much of their stuff, either.  Too expensive and too bulky for the most part.  I did get some of their wood veneer--will have to see if I have used them!

Here's a layout by Christinec68 that uses the "Leaves and Mushrooms icons" that I have.

Her use of the wood isn't over the top, and they coordinate with her papers really well as is.

She did a wonderful job with that line. And those veneer leaves are perfect!

Re: Oddball
Wow. I posted here and somehow it ate my post.  LOL

I LOVE Primas and other brands of dimensional flowers!  I have a LOT.  I am also enjoying making my own dimensional flowers now as well.  I used to use Primas on almost all my layouts - anytime it needed an embellishment I would grab the Primas, and although I think they looked nice, I have greatly curbed my flower usage.  I felt like I was using way too much on all my layouts, so now I use them in moderation.

Re: Oddball
Thanks for pulling my layout!! :)

I like their veneers but I find their paper patterns too delicate for me to work with.  The flowers are gorgeous but bulky.  I was just looking at some of the more themed veneers, wedding specifically, and while they are great, I don't need 6 of 6 very specific designs.

Oh well.

Thankfully there's dozens of manufacturers so there's something for everyone. Image

Re: Oddball
I like some of the older flowers they had but not a big fan of Primas in general. I used to love flowers a lot on layouts, and I still Love how they look and buy lots of flowers because they're pretty but can never seem to find a good layout to use them on! Lol

Re: Oddball
I love Prima! Not so much on some of their bulkier flowers because they just don't fit in my albums, but I like the more basic flatter type flower. Their recent lines are alittle overly flowery and not sure what I'll end up ordering.

Here's a couple of mine using the Prima Wishes & Dreams line.

Re: Oddball
Here's another more recent one using the Prima Anna Marie line. I do love these papers as they are alittle brighter than some. I ended up using Petaloo flowers though as they were flatter.

Re: Oddball
If you are an oddball, then so am I! I've never been a big Prima fan - just not my style.  I think the only thing of theirs I've used on a layout were these totally cute birdie clips:

I bought them specifically for this layout - I rarely do that!

Re: Oddball
I adore Prima flowers- not the flat ones, the "bulky" ones- but it's all about what you're in to. I have tons of flt flowers and I have no desire to use them. I love the flowers for layouts and mixed media. I have only had a few of their papers, but the new Cartographer and Stationer's Desk or on my wishlist to get,

Here are a couple of my own projects that use Prima flowers

And I absolutely adore these doll stamps!! The flowers on these are Prima too

See that is what I am talking about! I did not even see this line when it came in the shop and I love it. Why am I not surprised it is Deanna that "made me do it" ? ImageImageImageImage
