It's a 3-fer today here on the blog! Why because it's pouring plates again and you know I like to swoop in and do my part to fill you with fantasies of the new plates you need to add to your collection ;) MoYou London has decided to release another collection this time aimed at all those bridezillas and romantics out there. Sadly I'm not one, but I'm always excited to see more plates particularly with new innovated images. So let's get into shall we?
Meet Kate. She was single, but now is getting hitched up so currently unavailable to mingle :) She's a little bit sassy, a lot sweet, and is focused on her wedding game. Let's see what she brings to the table...
Favorite images here are the "I do" with the crosshatch and the silhouetted couple. I find most of the other images somewhat similar to other images I have in my collection. The linked rings and diamonds is a 1st for me though.
The XL version of of the plate above minus a few of the smaller scenes. I have to admit I love the tuxedo :)
Finally a plate with everything I love! Lace lace lace lace lace!!! These plates are gonna fly off the proverbial shelves. There have been so many ladies buzzing about the lace plates released recently I can't see anyone passing on them even if you aren't particularly interested in this collection.
And same as above but an XL version. I'll take this one too! Lol.
So ultimately I have mixed feelings about this collection in general. Don't get me wrong. MoYou London is one of my favorite plate makers and they literally offer something for everyone! However, I'm not big on the hubbub that is the traditional American styled wedding, and even less on the whole romance lovey dovey thing. Quiet, low key, and with excellent food and liquor is the way to go for me. That said some ladies want it all and this collection will pander to that sentiment. One other thing that causes me to be a little hesitant with this collection are the themes which I've seen already on so many other plates - cupids, roses, hearts, more roses, more diamonds, tuxedos. Sorry, but that's truly how I feel. To be honest I was really hoping MoYou would take this collection in a totally non-traditional direction showing us brides all over the world. I know ladies are still gonna eat these plates up though.
So MoYou has already let us know the next 3 plates for this collection will be releasing next Friday and if you are savvy enough you can see the plates I have posted aren't even in numerical order so we know more plates are coming. Now what do you ladies think? These plates will be available on the MoYou London website on Friday. As usual they retail for 4.99 Euros. If you haven't used the code "Tamira10" will save you 10% off your next order. Happy stamping ladies and see you next post...
Lace lace lace yes yes yes :) gonna buy!
ReplyDeleteLol yes the lace places are lovely. Also if you are interested in lace take a look at the Loja BBF brand and also Messy Mansion MM44 - they are flawless ;)
DeleteLove the lace plates, but underwhelmed by the rest of the imagery. They missed the chance to celebrate marriage equality in their country with some cute double groom and bride graphics, but who knows what the next set of plates might bring.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed as I said I wasn't very blown away by this collection as a whole, the lace is lovely, but 2 other brands to date have already done lace in extremely gorgeous ways so the concept isn't original. I agree they could do more but maybe they have other ideas coming down the pipeline and they do seem fairly responsive to feedback which is great!
DeleteI think the lace is so freaking pretty, I may actually make this Bridal collection my first stamping plate purchase ever....
ReplyDeleteAre you getting married or engaged? Lol it's just I could think of so many other plates that are better for starting out a stamping collection. Also if it's just the lace again I highly suggest taking a look at Messy Mansion MM44 or Loja BBF 04 and 21. Loja was the first brand to create the lace plates. Of course I love MoYou London's version as well it's just from my vantage point a very limited collection to start stamping with
DeleteBrides usually wear it while sporting turmeric or henna as gold jewelry might get spoiled when
ReplyDeleteit comes in contact with them and they do save it - atleast the beads and bases
as a memento
wedding favors
