you find hard to work with?
For me it is Basic Grey! I just saw all the new lines in the shop and they are so colorful, bright and fun!! But, I know that I will struggle with them. Why? Not a clue but I do. I oooohhh and ahhhhhh over creations made with them just wish I could do the same.
How about you? Is there a company that you find hard to work with?
It depends on the collection but I tend to struggle more with LYB and Webster's pages than other companies
Brandy
My problem manufacturers are Webster's Pages and Jillibean Soup. Just not feeling it with their collections. I have only used Jillibean once and that was because I won it. It had the phones on it and I did a layout with my grandkids on Christmas morning with their new cell phones. I don't see myself ever buying either of them, but I do like some of Webster's Pages embellies.
Graphic 45. I had never worked with it before one of Sandi's Manufacturer challenges so I bought a few sheets and I still had difficulty scrapping with it. I think because it's so themed and patterned. It's busy to me.
Sus, Basic Grey was always my 'love'. One of the first brands I actually fell in love with as being a 'brand' versus just using ordinary paper at a local store. When they first began I bought about every collection they came out with, then it gradually became about 3 sheets from each collection. Now, with so many more manufacturers I do pick and choose which lines I'll actually use or not. I don't particularly care that a lot of times it's only printed on one side with a solid color on the back.

Graphic 45 for me, too. I love their papers, and buy their items, but just have a very hard time working with them. Good question!
Graphic 45 and Websters... G45 is too dark and busy for me and Websters is too pastel-y and frilly bright for my liking

Websters - I raised 4 boys and all of the flower papers and details don't really fit in our lives.
I would have to say Graphic 45. I have a lot of their stuff, but I cannot get my pages to look as nice as they could! Also, October Afternoon.

Doh! Basic Grey is the easiest for me!
I struggle with Graphic 45 and Jenni Bowlin.

OCD is not an adjective. It is not a personality quirk. 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.
Graphic 45 and Webster's too.
Seriously? I find them to be one of the easiest to work with.CarrieG wrote:I have the WORST time with Simple Stories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Graphic 45. Beautiful stuff but not my scrapping style and I'd hate to cover up so much of the great art work.
I agree with Basic Grey, I have so much trouble trying to come up with something

YUP! I didn't have trouble with the green...Charmed Life one...but any of them that have primary colors and red in them just cause me FITS!
For me it would be Graphic 45 and Simple Stories. I think both of them have great lines, but they are way too busy for me.
Mildred - Mom to 2 girls and a husband (I tell people that I am a single mom of 3. Ages 59, 37 and 31) lol. And a proud Grandma to Orahn (7) Sawyer (5) and Mazie (3).
Jenni Bowlin for me. I find her papers and embellishments freak me out. I don't get that style yet some people do great work with it.
Weird, I know!

Prima and Graphic 45 ... a lot of their stuff is very vintage/retro/shabby chic and I don't have any heritage photos to scrap so I find them impossible to use.
