Found it - on Ali's blog in this post: aliedwards.com/2016/09/december-daily-2016-mini-kit-unboxing-videosHere's the thread in the comments, with Ali's response: claraogren 24 DAYS AGO I hate to point this out, and I LOVE her kit regardless, but in the Jasmine Jones kit, does the journaling card say "Santa Clause"? As in with an "e" at the end? Isn't it spelled "Santa Claus", no "e"? 3 replies geordie281 24 DAYS AGO Oops, you're absolutely right. Well spotted - how did that get through the editing process? rigelpuppy 24 DAYS AGO looks like a great spot for an embellishment! AliEdwards 24 DAYS AGO According to Jasmine that was intentional . If you google it you can see it spelled different ways (specially for a movie).

I contacted Ali's customer service about the spelling errors in the Jasmine Jones kit and received a response. They said, "Hi Linda, I am so sorry for the disappointment you've experienced with your kit thus far. We will be offering digital versions of the two cards you referenced above. Thank you for your continued patience and loyalty. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns."
So at least they aren't trying to pass it off as intentional anymore, but that just means they are willing to admit they lied about it before.
[[Side note, I took a screen shot of the message, but can't figure out how to add photos here.]]

That's unfortunate. I feel like if it was intentional, why not reference the movie in some way? Or put Clause in a different font? And sorry, but I've never seen 'twas with ' in the middle. Matter of fact, my 'twas keeps getting autocorrected.

I don't even care if there is a film called The Santa Clause, it's absolutely ridiculous that they are using such specific references when the kits should be general and easy for anyone to use.
What about the percentage of people who won't watch that film this year? Or won't reference it in their DD? Or the people who have never heard of it?
Does someone in proof reading or production not flag up the potential issues of having something like the spelling of Santa Clause on a card?

I think that the is supposed to mean "bless your heart"-at least when my BFF and I add that to texts that's what it means.
LOL- The board added a instead of a : )

There is no possible reason for t'was vs. 'twas. They can pretend about "Clause" all they want, but t'was is just BS and grammatically (and aesthetically) wrong.

Did anyone comment on the black vs. gray? I'm going to open mine tonight, but I'm hoping it isn't too bad. I wonder if the digital files will be true black then?

My dd arrived
I'm missing a mini kit I'm missing a pack of the red alphas I'm missing the large messy circle die cuts from Ali's main kit which I'm so disappointed by because they are what pushed me over the edge for getting Ali's kit.
My cards from the Paislee press mini are all inky transfer from the dark cards on the back of some and also on the cards that were beside a dark card. There is no way I'm using some of these cards
I'm so happy with my stamps and at least none of them are wrong

Wow gigi. I trully don't understand how that happens.....and on such a scale. I hope they resolve the issue for you on a timely basis so that you have all the items when you need them. Kind of takes the excitement off , I'm glad you could still enjoy the stamps.

gigi333, I can only imagine how disappointed (and furious) you must be. It's mind-blowing that a company can be that lax and so infuriating that you'll now have to wait weeks for things you've already waited weeks for. Hope they have the missing items in stock and get them in the mail asap for you.

I received my box today. Here's my early impressions.
Good -Decor8 papers (except that there are only 4 of them) -Gold dot album (super pretty) -All the embellishments (sequins are bright, rubber charms and acetate shapes look good, etc) -Liz's cards (really nice) -Ali's washi rolls are prettier than I thought they would be
Bad -All the washi strips (SC-style thin and horrible) -Papers in Ali's kit (really dull and unsaturated) -The "remember" 6x8 pocket in the Ali's main (it looks dirty and faded)
There are a few things I haven't opened yet, and I didn't get any stamps or inks or pens.

gigi333 - that is horrible! I hope they fix it for you soon. My Paislee Press cards were perfect, so good ones are out there. Good luck!

gigi333 Sorry to hear.... Seems like you are not alone. There have been lots of people on the SC MB, Facebook, etc saying that they are missing items.....

pancakes, I watched Pam Baldwin's unboxing video earlier today and the edges of her cards looked curled/bent too. This company really needs to get their ish together before they run Ali's rep into the ground and her customers to other suppliers.

Pictures of stuff you don't have. They are dumb AF. Taking ridiculous to another level, huh? Just by the shipping weight they registered for the parcel they should know something is off and at least a mini is missing! Everyone should also take a very close look at their DD stamp sets and not follow my stash-it-straight-away lead since I had a major gash running through one of my AE stamps a couple of months back.

Yep...I had to check my stamps after I saw you post it. Mine was all good, but man, that sucks. You can't really fault them for missing that, though...I'm sure they don't check every stamp and they probably come pre-packaged, but that is something their production company should have been able to catch. But, cheap means cutting corners.

That's what I get for trying to multitask, lol. I have spent the entire day in front of 2 computers transferring files from old to new. Not much had my undivided attention today.
