Justine is one of the presenters at the Card Maker's Success Summits and also the Get Organized event put on by the same group. I think others in the group have also launched this sort of membership group recently. I am wary and haven't joined any of them. Maybe I just already follow quite a few crafters' who offer free videos and don't see how this could add value. Maybe I just enjoy picking and choosing where to spend money on instruction on a case by case basis. Not sure.

If you really enjoy her videos and would be otherwise interested why not contact her and ask her how to cancel and how many have already joined? That way you could try it out. Speaking of which, if I were doing something like this I would offer the first month free the way they do with some streaming services.

While I have enjoyed her videos in the past since she is no longer on any design teams I’ve kind of lost interest. I just watched her most recent one on decluttering and purging and didn’t learn anything I didn’t already know. I would also wonder just how much time she will be able to devote to these exclusive videos once her baby is born.
With so many free card making videos on YouTube I’d rather spend my money on product.

With so many free card making videos on YouTube I’d rather spend my money on product. I didn't realize she was pregnant. If I were thinking of signing up I'd hold off until after her baby is born and we see how things play out. Although, now that she is starting to come out with her own stamps and dies she may be trying to make it more of a business and less of a thing she does after hours from her day job. I do like Justine but I have to agree that I've lost a lot of interest since she quit all of the design teams. I'm not sure how successful her new approach is. I watch her videos from time to time but don't feel any sense of urgency like I would if she was showing new product. |

I didn’t know she was having a baby either.
Her teaching style has always been a bit hit or miss for me. I liked her a lot when I first started out cardmaking, but less so lately, both when she was on all the DTs and since she quit. I have others I trust more for recommendations and enjoy more for entertainment.
I don’t know anyone in her group, haven’t heard anything about it. $9 a month seems pretty steep for these kinds of things. I don’t begrudge her valuing her time etc etc but I don’t really want to commit that much (ongoing) to something I can and already have gleaned for free on YT. Especially if the “community” is not very big or my cup of tea. Then again it’s not so much you couldn’t check it out for a month or two here and there.

Put me on the list of lost interest as well. I find that there are too many videos out there that can provide me techniques for free. I've put a hold on paying for content this year.

Wow! How did I miss that she is pregnant?
I like her as a person and I totally love that she quit the DTs. She has some really good videos and some boring ones too. I do like it how she goes back and uses older stuff instead of telling us to use your old stuff,but I'm going to use this brand new shiny new stamps and dies.
And she tells us if something is not worth the money or if it doesn't work.
I'm not a person to spend money on contents only, but I have thought about signing up with her for a month and get some of her print outs.

I used to watch her videos and lost interest slowly. I did not find her sharing anything new so there is no way I am paying for it.

I unsubscribed about a year ago because I wasn't finding her content interesting or fresh. Plus I don't make as many cards as I used to so that is also part of it. |
