I really like several of the SU Designer Series Papers. I am trying to make up my mind which to get. What pattern is your favorite? Is there one that you thought was pretty than when it cam is was disappointing? Thanks

though I LOVE bella rose, I find that the one's with a smaller pattern in general (and more stripes) get used more...I am still working off one I LOVED from last year(Flowers for You), but my new fave is Sweet Always.
I am loving Raspberry Tart and Tea Party. I love the boldness of Raspberry Tart and the softness of Tea Party (perfect for Easter/Spring cards and projects).

I love the Raspberry Tart, and the Bella Rose. (I think I have the names right. I'm just not sure and I don't have their names right here in front of me.)
I do find that I tend to use the smaller patterns when I am doing my cards because I don't want to overwhelm my stamped image or draw attention away from it. I think the larger patterns would be cool on scrapbook pages.

I love Good morning sunshine. I think it's really bright and cheery...it just makes me happy. I'm ordering some today to go with Trendy Trees
I really like smaller patterns as well, especially polka dots and other dotted patterns. SU! DSP usually has too many "big" patterns for me. I just posted about this the other day, I wish they would offer a print themed pack of patterned paper, such as a dot theme or a stripe theme, maybe in a variety of colors. I just don't use many floral patters etc...so it's usually a waste of $$$ for me to buy the DSP, although I may like the colors. Luckily, with good morning sunshine it looks like there is lots of small patterns!:mrgreen:
I can only pick one?! I have so many favorites from this catalog, but my current fave is Parisian Breeze Specialty. The patterns are fabulous and its textured! Not only that, but it's thicker than regular paper. Almost more like cardstock. A great quality paper.
My all time favorite is Bella Rose. Tea Party has now repalced that with its soft pastels for spring. But if you're looking for something extraordinary and fun, Pink Flamingo is my pick! I never expected to like it best of all, but it is bold, inspiring and very, very versatile.
Parisian Breeze is so wonderful...I'm finding excuses to use it in all my projects lately! I also love the Bella Rose paper...I still reach ofr it all the time. Last cattie's Parisian Summer was also very nice...I think they retired it too soon!
I've not seen them all in person but I adore Raspberry tart!! I'm gonna order 2 pkgs when I place my SAB order this week. I didn't like Bella Rose in person. Some of the papers were pretty but some of them I just didn't like at all..thatss the first SU! set that I wasn't sorry the paper was double sided cuz in other cases both sides are so pretty I hate to lose one side by laying it down and not seen. Urban Garden (I think thats the name) is also very nice.
My favorite is Rockabilly because it's bright and colorful. It doesn't look like the typical SU paper. That being said, there's about four sets that really appealed to me because they are more colorful. Rockabilly just happens to be my favorite.
My Favorite is Candy Lane I tend to use those colors a lot, and also Bella rose... Having a hard time using Raspberry Tart Hopefully it will grow on me
I love almost all of it. The packs that have duller colors I'm not as fond of, but I'm sure if I bought it I'd figure out what to do with it. My favorite I haven't bought yet, believe it or not...Washington Apple...on my next order it will be! Oh dear...why talking like Yoda am I? More coffee I need to drink, yes! Hee hee hee....
I love Good morning sunshine. I think it's really bright and cheery...it just makes me happy. I'm ordering some today to go with Trendy Trees

The Print Pattern assortments have pretty much what you are looking for. There are a few small floral patterns, but mostly dots, stripes, etc.
Good Morning Sunshine and Parisian Breeze are some of my new favorites. But, really, I like it all. I think SU! really did a great job with this round of DSP.
What is your favorite SU DSP?
