Hi everyone!
I thought it would be fun to find out what everyone's favorite manufacturer was.  Whether for paper, tools, or whatever else you use to be crafty with, I'd love to know what floats your boat.

I really like Simple Stories, but I have found that Bella Blvd always produces my most favorite layouts that I have created over the years.  I'm interested to try out more PhotoPlay, they have caught my attention lately.

I also love Simple Stories and have lots in my stash.  In addition I love PhotoPlay and Carta Bella. I have bought all the Shimelle collections - maybe not because I love every piece but because I take her classes and watch her FB live videos and love to watch how she uses them.

My Minds Eye has been one of my favorites fir a long time. I have lost some Manufacturers that I really liked. I Love Maja Design , but rarely buy it. I have a lot of PhotoPlay and echo park for papers.
I use a lot of We R tools, and I use my ATG adhesive gun with 1/2 “ tape a lot!

I seem to buy a lot of Pebbles    I love OneCanoeTwo  I love Crate and Echo Park also

Right now I am really loving Pinkfresh Studios collections.  Love all their puffy embellishments and alphas.  So versatile to use with other manufacturers.  I have tons of the major manufacturers (BoBunny, Echo Park, Photoplay, Simple Stories to name a few).  I sold my house last June  and moved into a temporary apartment for 6 months while new house was being built.   So I had to pack and move my scraproom twice.  That really opened my eyes as to how much stuff I have and and how much I had forgotten that I had.  Since I have finally moved to my new house I am currently doing a major purge of papers and embellies.  I'm sure everyone has heard "Out with the old and in with the new".

I loved Basic Grey back in the day, but now I lean toward Echo Park, Simple Stories and PhotoPlay.

I am typically drawn to Simple Stories, Photoplay and Bo Bunny. I love Kaiser Crafts tropical collections.

I love Echo Park and Bella Blvd. My newest obsession is Vicki Boutin’s line.

[VickiR]

I have so many favorites...Authentique, Bella Blvd., Carta Bella, Kaisercraft are a few.  But, I have to say that Photoplay has jumped to the front of the line recently.  I love the themes, designs and everything about this line of paper!

We've moved quite a few times and it really does make you purge!  I don't keep anything anymore, course I could kick myself in the butt because a few of the collections I still go for and then remember I got rid of them...

Like Brandy, my go-to back in the day was Basic Grey.  Now my faves are Simple Stories & Echo Park. Photoplay has had some great lines I've really liked, too...I'd love to see them expand their coordinating embellishments!

[joannie]

It's funny how our favorites change...I used to love Fancy Pants...but haven't bought anything from them in a long while! So my new faves are Tim Holtz, Simple Stories, and Photoplay.

[Flasher]

Right now, it's Doodlebug and Echo Park. 

Now, should there ever be a petition drive to bring back Basic Grey or Little Yellow Bicycle, I would most definitely head up those committees.

Simple Stories has always been a favorite as is Echo Park. I really love Pinkfresh, I like Carta Bella, and I'm seeing a lot of Photoplay that I'm interested in.  But there are many more that I like too. I forgot I can't go anywhere without my ATG (Love it).
 

[Yankeegirl]

I consistently buy Echo Park, Simple Stories, and Photoplay. I have a lot of Pink Fresh, Kaisercraft, and of course, tons of Disney stuff. I have a ton of Carta Bella and Bo Bunny but haven't bought any recently because the collections just don't speak to me anymore.

I miss Basic Grey adn Scenic Route.

I love my TH stamping platform, and his guillotine trimmer, although it is hard to know exactly where I am cutting so I generally cut papers with me beloved Fiskar trimmer. The EK tools scissors and tweezers are always in my hands. Couldn't live without my ATG 714 tape runner. I really miss my Basic Grey magnetic mat, which is not made anymore. I have the new one by WRMK but the measurements are terrible: US inches across top and bottom, but metric down the sides. Useless to me. I need to find a sticker ruler to add inches down the sides!

Right now, it's Doodlebug and Echo Park. 

Now, should there ever be a petition drive to bring back Basic Grey or Little Yellow Bicycle, I would most definitely head up those committees. 

Oh yes, LYB! I loved their papers and the myriad of embellishments they had. And the gorgeous colors and themes!

I am a long time fan of Bo Bunny, and Kaisercraft. But a few months back I "found" 49 and Market, which I LOVE, and Ella and Viv.
