October Afternoon's lines always delight, and at the summer show they stayed true to what works for them. Adorable images, beautiful colors that coordinate well even when mixing lines, and tons of possibilities for some really cute projects.
Campfire is just so darn cute I may have to go camping to get some good pictures to scrapbook:
Report Card may just actually work for some of those old photos of school days I have yet to get into an album:
And Modern Homemaker... well it makes me actually want to don an apron with a wink and a smile:
There wasn't a single line here from October Afternoon I don't eventually want in my stash. They have been and remain a definite favorite!

OA is always my favorite and definitely a MUST HAVE. This is the one Manufacturer that I was most anxious to see the new stuff appear - thanks for sharing. Now I must "don my apron" and clean up all of the drool from my computer desk!!

Oh I am having a blast over here with all the pics and the coverage!
I love my Scor-Pal for every-day use as I can put a scrap 12x12 piece of paper on top of it to use for gluing. I really like the fact that the Scor-Buddy has more scoring lines so I can use it for creating a frame on the card for stamped images.
Such clear and crisp photos of these awesome paper lines!! I'll have to look for these!!

I use my Scor-Pal all the time and would use the Scor Buddy the same way but I know it's so portable! We travel to another place on the weekends and the Scor Buddy would be perfect to have at our other house or to carry back and forth with me. Love the intro to the new October Afternoon papers and supplies!
I'd love to win a Scor-Buddy to try my hand at different card folds!

Scor-buddy looks so cool. It would be great to have one.
WOW... these are fabulous! Can't wait to get my hand on some of these. OMGosh I need a Scor-Buddy soooo badly. Well.. ok, I have the big one... but this would make crafting so much tidier.. just the size is perfect since I mostly do A2 cards anyway. I think that and envelopes would be perfect for this little guy.
Oh boy, Buddy. What I couldn't do with you. Thanks!

I'd like to play with boxes and envelopes besides just the usual cards. Like that it has a carrying case.
I love the portability of the Scor Buddy. I can see taking it on CROPS and also sharing it with my scrapbook club. We meet once a month and look at products that make card making, scrapbooking and paper crafting easier. I'd be sharing mine with all of them.
Oh how I love October Afternoon products! Thanks for the pictures!
I'd love a Scor-Buddy... it's size is just right for cardmaking!

I would use this to take to crops to make cards while I am there!
I love the scor-pal so having a scor-Buddy would be great to take with me instead of a Scor-pal.
Scor-Pal has been on my wish list for a while, but Scor-Buddy is so cute! I need it for cards and envelopes, more cards and more envelopes!
Scor Buddy is PERFECT for card-making! I love this new size!

i love that the buddy is so much more portable. i make cards with my friends, mostly at their houses, and i would love to take it along.

I'm a card maker -- I'd use the scor-buddy every single day!
I would use the Scor-Buddy for all of the scoring and folding that goes into more complicated projects like tri-fold invitations for parties, 3-d photo boxes and the like. It would definitely come in handy.

It would be great to create gate-fold cards easier and envelopes easier and I have seen so many great paper crafting on the website which are very inspirational.
I can't wait to see the new graphic 45. I have the larger Scor-Pal but would love the buddy to be able to take it on the go.
I love my Scor-Pal and would love to give him a Buddy. I'd be more tempted to do faux tiles and diamonds. And a Buddy would be easier to share at crops and classes. Thanks for the chance to win.

Finally something small enough to take to crops and just as functional as the original. Great idea!!!

I would use mine to make christmas boxes for my kids (adults). Perfect little boxes with earrings or necklaces would be a wonderful gift to give. All decorated in their favorite colors. It would be wonderful to see their faces when I tell them I made it. Thanks for the giveaway.
I have a Scor-Pal and just simply love it, however, the Scor-Buddy would be my traveling companion and take up less room on the table!! Love the paper lines.
Love the new October Afternoon! I would use a score buddy to make interesting card folds, mini albums and other fun altered projects!

Great pictures! I love the October Afternoon line and can't wait to see it on the shelves at my LSS.
I'd love to have a Scor-Buddy. I'd carry it in my tote every time I go out to crop or teach because it is so portable. I can't seem to ever score the exact spot for my cards by using my trimmer, so I fold by hand and you know what that does to the folded edge. I love the plaid pattern technique too! I can think of 100 ways to use it. Thanks
Scor-Buddy would become my constant companion on my craft table for daily card making and helping me jazz up my card fronts with diagonals, outlines and plaid lines to give all my cards more definition and texture!!!
It would get a lot of love at my house while I make cards & gift boxes. :)
I'd love a Scor-Buddy for making cards and little pockets and envelopes for my scrapbook pages.
