That's an instant B-line to the top of my A-list, and then I got a glimpse at this 12x12 piece of paper:
Sugarland...in which I found myself opening the gates to a magical Christmasland where I wanted to live for-absolute-ever. Check it:

And then, when I found out that this edible elfin enterprise came with these, I was putting on my gloves, pulling down my hat, and wrapping my scarf a little tighter around my neck for the extended stay:

We can talk about all the paper treats we will consume while we stroll arm-in-arm among the gumdrops, toffee, candy canes, frosting, and snowflakes in a sunshiney sea of winter blue. Just leave me a comment about what you love most about this line and I'll give each of my two guests the entire collection as my thank you for coming along.

Hi Cath!
It's Joan. I love the colors! I love browns and greens, and this collection has lots of them. I love all the sweet images and the happy sensation they evoke when I look at the collection. It makes me feel like a kid again.... Please, save a gingerbread house for me... my departure to Merrymint Paradise is schedule right after I finish my coffee... You don't want me there without it LOL ;)
It is all so cute! I love the green polka dot paper (two of my favorite things, green and polka dots). The stickers and the rub ons are adorable!
I love the colors and Wintergreen is calling my name. I really love polka dots.
i gotta say i love those little reindeer! cute cute!

OH WOW!! I love it all, but especially the "Candy Shoppe" paper. I could coordinate a whole album around that paper!! Adorable and sooooo fun!
Thanks for the chance to play!
Love the collection and I have a few sheets of it sitting in my drawer waiting patiently to be used.
I love the festive colors. It makes you feel happy and wanting to make great pictures to scrap with these beautiful papers. Bye Irene from the Netherlands
Oh, my goodness, I love it! The colors and the graphic feel are just yummy!!
Those stickers are just too darn cute! And, what a great color combo....I love the baby blue mixed in with the reds and greens! So cheery!
Good morning! The gingerbread houses are so sweet! Love the polka dots as well!
Wow, what an absolutely adorable line!! I'm partial to the whimsy more than the vintage and this one is 'speaking' to me!! Thanks for the chance to win it and have it in my possession!!! Maybe I'll get an early Christmas present! ;)

I love the colors. Love the funky take on the traditional images in an untraditional way. The whole thing is just adorable - makes me want to grab a spoon (or a paper cutter!) and dive right in :)
Really like how everything coordinates! Very cute and fun and whimsical. The rub-ons are a bonus. Very Merry Minty!
Oh yum yum yum! What a beautiful collection! And... it makes me akinda mad I passed by those spiced gum drops (favs!) in the grocery store yesterday (I was TRYING to be good and here you are tempting me!). The best part of this batch? NO CALORIES!
This is a great line - love the whimsy and the colors, just makes you happy!
Woohoo! These are so cute, but what I love the most (besides the designs and colors of course) is the fun names given to each paper!
wow! These are FUN!
You know, I give paper life (it gives me life too), but this paper is already alive! I love the name of the line and the papers. OmGosh...gum drops, sugar cookies, candy shoppe...how sweet!

Love this line, the colors, patterns and those stickers! Need it :o)
This collection is just adorable! It's friendly, colorful, and fun! Adorable!
What's not to love!? Seriously though, even though it's holiday themed, it looks like there are quite a few papers that could be used year round on cards for all occasions. I love that about a paper line- versatile!
What fun papers, and I love the Eggnog Flair!
Seriously...this line just makes me SMILE...sooooo stinkin' cute!!!!
The names of these papers make me hungry! Fabulous line...I already have a ton of ideas for it!

What an appropriate name for this line. I've been drooling over these papers at my LSS for awhile. The glitter and foil on them is amazing. My favorite papers are cinnamon rolls and streusel. And I love the Flair accents. So Adorable. Thanks for the chance.
Wow...what is not to like about this set! TOTAL CUTENESS and wonderful colors!
This is the cutest collection, Cath!! I love the color combo and the images are adorable. Thanks for the opportunity :)
I just love the vivid colours, the cheery papers and my mind is just churning! The greens and the brown and the little gingerbread men and the candy. It goes on and on.
Morning!
I just LOVE this whole set! I was taken back to the days of Rudolph...candycanes hanging on the tree...my Grandmother's house...ooh! how fun! Then I was off to dreaming up the Christmas goodie packages that would be just perfect for this paper...
I really love the rub-ons and the "Candy Shop" paper, but it is all wonderful.
Great pick! Thanks for sharing!
Almost finished packing! I love the roundness of it all...except the striped licorice page, of course...how every design has a curve, swirl, or dot. As a rather round person myself, that looks like a comfortable and inviting place to live! I'm ready now...let's go! :D

Tanya
oh my goodness! Super cute papers!
Who wouldn't want to spend Christmas in Candyland. I love the names of the papers, especially the streusal topping. :-)
I love the colors AC uses for their lines. they are so hip and fun. This line is no different!
The names of the papers alone is good enough, isn't is??!! LOL!! I love the colors!
oh my---this is a delicious kit:) I love the paper--oh so many things I could use it on! Thanks for the giveaway:)
Oh I just love that streusal paper!!! Looks good enough to eat!
Wow, really love all of those papers!! I want them all just to have, they are just so pretty!
Ooooh, they are oh so yummy! I just love the colors of this line. They are so nontraditional ;D
I love how it reminds me of a children's view of Christmas. Whimsy and vintage and fun all in one look. Thanks for offering it.
Wow, I do love that paper! I have a few pieces but I so need the set! So cheery!

Love them all-so yummy-licious (I just "invented" that word!
What a fun line! I love the stickers and rub-ons!
thanks for this sweet outing, but I have a bit of a tummyache now. I like how you can fussy-cut many of the images out to use as embellies.
What do I like about it? Everything! The colours, the patterns, the designs and the cute stickers. So fun!
the Merrymint papers are adorable but the accents (rub-ons and stickers) really dress the collection up!!
I love the colors and the cute, whimsical designs. This collection makes me happy. Thanks for showing it to us (and for offering it as a gift).
I love the colors of this collection, especially the swirly pages.
Hey Girl,
I absolutely love AC, and everything they come out with.
I love that they have the cutest accents and their cas style.
crossing my fingers, toes and well, anything else i can find to cross.
I love that this collection reminds me of Christmas when I was little, and of how I want to make Christmases for my children... absolutely magical.
Oh, man! I love Christmas paper!! What's great is that several of the sheets can be used for non-Christmas projects! Love it!
What I love the most....hmmm...difficult...these papers are scrumptious! The colours are amazing and I love love love how the options for coordination are endless!
it's whimsical!
I just love everything about this collection, it reminds me of everything about Christmas and the childhood memories I have of Christmas when I was a child.
I LOVE this Merrymint line! Hard to say, but I think "Sugarland" is my fave. Everything is So cute, love the collection names and just SO the right colours!
This is my kind of Christmas! Nothing serious here, just fun and sweetness!! So cute.
Why I like Merrymint:
It is just adorable! It brings a big ol' smile to my face...it reminds me of opening a Christmas stocking on Christmas morning and spilling out all the yummy goodies!!!
Yummy!
Oh my goodness, the COLORS! These colors are so perfect!
I have a couple pieces from this collection and what I love is the embossed papers. They are absolutely beautiful! I only wish I had more. The embossed papers cost a bit more so I was only able to get a few pieces but they are well worth the money, they are absolutely delightful!
I saw the first piece of paper in the blog and the first words were "oh my gosh" and I just kept repeating that over and over as I continued to stroll - I love the way santa, the reindeer, penguin, etc are portrayed - adorable!
I have to say I absolutely love the names of these papers!! And the embellishments are darling.
I want to use this as wrapping paper it is SOOOO PERFECT!!! or wallpaper for the holidays LOL!! This is such a gorgeous line of papers! I LOVE the patterns and colors! I will have dreams of all the cards and pressies I could make with these papers tonight! :D Thanks for the review of these papers! Xx
My favorite aspect of this line is the use of brown...I just love brown, especially a deep chocolate brown...maybe cause it makes me think of chocolate! ;)
What a great line! I can see me using to scrapbook our annual Christmas Cookie day! Thank you for the opportunity to win this beautiful collection!
The polka dots jump out to me! I'm on a huge polka dot kick right now!

Hello Cath,
Love those colors. Well... I have to admit that what I love must are candy and desserts, so these colors make me transport to a candy land and who would not like to pass even a day in a world of candy. This collection is so funny and make me feel a kid again. Great collections. Best regards, Farida
I think the whole line is just adorable. Love the "Candy Shop" paper! It just puts me right in that Holiday spirit. The rubons are just so cute. Spending time with Merrymint would make my day!
It's hard not to love it all but I'm loving the polka dots and the cute little characters!!!

The names of this line are all DELISH along with the papers ! I'm addicted to rub ons and those are to die for !!
I love the marshmallow paper, the rub ons, the brads and ... all of it! I love Gingerbread houses and would love to go on your journey!!
I love these yummy papers. How fun are they. I love all the goodies and snowflakes for all the wintery fun.
I'm so there Cath. Sign me up. What super adorable designs. All the old fashioned candy images are just sweet. And it looks like some of the pages have elements that could be trimmed out and used as card embellishments. Deslish:)
Not a single paper in this line I do not love. Need I say more?!?
Wait! Wait! I wanna go! Can I go too? Everything is so sweet and delicious looking. I love the vintage look about the collection. It reminds me of my Christmases while a child. Thanks for sharing this SWEET Homemade Looking collection with us today.
My family's all home for the week, and so my husband and I were scrolling through the papers. So irresistible! I love sugar cookie and he loves gingerbread houses. Maybe we'll have to do some cozy baking today...
I love that they threw in some aqua. I'm ready for a new color in the Chrismas mix.
I think it is truly adorable and make my hungry! :) Love love love Christmas time!
Really modern and cute! Love the bright Christmas colors and patterns.
ooooh, yum! I love the colours from this line - different from the usual red/green combo!
What is there NOT to love? The paper is amazing and I love the remarks too. I've seen the stamps and they're so cute. The penguin is one of my favorite images.
I love the colors of this collection and especially the matching rub-ons.

Not sure I could say what I love best . . . this line is adorable! I love the pops of baby blue throughout. It's unexpected and fun!
OMGosh! This collection is fabulous and just love the names of all of them. I would have to say Sugarland is one of the favorites and the rub ons. Looking at all these inspiring goodies is a flashback of being a kid. Thanks for a chance at this sweeeeeeet giveaway.
oh my....love it all, the colors, the patterns, the rubons...fabulous!
This line is so cute. I really love them all but if I had to choose three of my favorites they would be Peppermint,Sugar Cookie, and Candy Shoppe.
Oh my goodness...what not to love!?! I really love the paper. I am a paper fanatic and it all looks absolutely fabulous!
It's the colors that hooked me. Just love the designs and how happy it makes me feel!
You had me at Merrymint!! This HAS to be the cutest holiday line I've seen to date. Being a baker and a lover of ALL things christmas, this line is a MUST have. The papers (and the cute names given to each) truly live up to the title MERRYMINT! Thanks for the chance to win this awesome line!
Love all the papers and color combos and especially the fat little penguin on skis.
I really like the popcorn paper...got to love that retro funk!
I just love everything about the merrymint coloction. I love all the bright fun colors and the candy theme. It is all so fabulous!
I'm drooling over the paper. The names of each design is mouth watering to start with, then there is literally lots of "eye candy". Oh the cards and tags I could make with these beautiful papers!
Something about candy shoppe, gingersnap and sugarland just bring out the kid in me!
Wow Cath!
What's NOT to like about this collection? It's not just cute, it's highly functional for cardmaking AND scrapbooking! So far in my paper crafting I've been more of a card maker, but I have albums ready for scrapping when I get all my ducks in a row to do it ;) Thanks for the offer of the gingerbread house, I'll bring the hot chocolate!
I already won this collection from Moxie Fab a couple of months ago, and I love it! Whoever wins, will get so much use and ideas from it! Enjoy, whoever wins! :)
DEEEE-LISH! Love, love, love the colors and all those yummy names! I also love that there are lots of 'neutral' patterns that could be used beyond Christmas. Hurray!
I love the whole "foodie" appeal of this line! When it comes to the Holidays, so many of the photos and excitement are all about the FOODS! Now don't get me wrong I get the family and fellowship of it all, but I so love the FUN that comes along with the "foodie" stuff!
Wow , love it all, love the colours and designs. The green polka dot paper is devine I just love dots!!!
I LOVE those papers!! Chocolate mint is my all time favorite flavor, so these papers make me want to heat for the Junior Mints!!LOL

Hi Cath,
What I like about this set is it is so versatile - It can be used for Christmas of course but then I can see it being used for other occasions also (Birthday invitations, Valentines Day, Girls night out) When I look at this set I get ideas rushing in. Now I can't wait to go into my stamp room today and start creating. Thanks for the inspiration.
Beth in Yuma
Oh, you're making me hungry!!! I love the candy shoppe paper the most but the embellies are so beautiful too!

I just love how CUTE it is, especially the stickers! My kids would love to craft with it too :)
The Gingerbread Houses are the best!!!! Love love love them@
:)
The set has that wonderful retro look to it, from a time when the things that meant most were homemade. Now I may just have to make a gingerbread house for the holidays, and use lots of gum drops! *grin* Your posts always make me smile.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! :)
I love the colors the best. Browns, reds and greens - sigh, it doesn't take much to make this girl happy.
Love the colours... and esp love the Gingerbread House paper!
This line is soooo cute! I love the whole thing! But that big headed (or chibi might be a nicer name for it) penguin rub on is ADORABLE! I love it!
Love it! Especially the Gingerbread house paper. Would make perfect strips of papers for simple christmas cards. mmmm
I love the Streusel paper. It looks like a big hunk of gingerbread with colored frosting!
Holy candy cane Batman...I would have never thought this is AC. Absolutely divine. Being a serial cutter-outter, i am crying with excitement already about all the yummy designs that I could cut out and place on cards, books, layouts - basically anything that doesn't move would get the Merrymint treatment ;)
Love this and some of the names sound sooo delicious!
I am a gingerbread fanatic!! My entire collection of Christmas decorations is nothing but my gingerbread collection which I only get out at Christmas time. This paper would be a welcome addition to my never ending craze. Thanks for the journey.
My kids are small, so the cartoon fairytale feel of these fun designs are great.
Love how fin this collection is. I think my fave paper is the Streusel :)
Love the cute cute xmas paper!
Hi Cath! I would have to say that I love the fabulous colors in this line! Makes me happy! I can see such a cute coordinated little album coming.....
