I got my holiday order + sub yesterday. I'm happy with the kit + stamps I got, minus the typo. I'm not sure how I feel about the weird hole punch thing she did, but I don't mind trimming. My favorite part was probably the die cuts. Although, I plan to do multiple stamps of the butter 2 step stamp and have a colorful stack of butter page. My daughter is very excited for it to finally be Christmas time so we can get inky with them all.
The monthly sub was nice, too. I like that she's swapping up the label and alpha colors more. 15 days until the next release.

Question for those of you who received the color paper or B/W add on to your larger kit. What did the paper pack include? I thought it would include all the papers and no stamp or embellishments.
I only received the main papers, no 3x4 cards, die-cuts, letterpress or vellum specialty papers for the add on. I'm wondering if it were a mistake. I didn't mind not getting the specialty papers again but I did want the 3x4 and die-cuts with the main papers.

Thank You, this wasn't up when I ordered, I'm missing the 3x4 cards. You're welcome. I was sent the link, I don't think it is something you can just find on the website.🙂

I really want the papers, but not necessarily the rest of the kit.

I don't listen to crafty podcasts, but I listened to Kelly's episode and it was refreshing to hear her talk. I love that she doesn't saturate us with non-stop talking every day. We hear from her when she has something to say. I do miss seeing her YouTube videos, but I am sure it takes up a lot of time to create, edit videos, and respond to comments as well as design products each month.

nicolep Thanks for letting us know! Off to download the episode for my morning commute. I still can't believe the ginormous spelling error in the Halloween swag bag. Oujia, really? It's literally pronounced like the French 'oui'... You've got to wonder what the financial impact of all these errors mean in terms of the her pricing. So many things have had to be reprinted/stamps remade and resent. She really needs to hire five attentive customers with a $10 coupon/month to her shop for proofreading. It would be such a cheap and easy way around the issue. ETA: Spotted a typo in the December Details kit. The 4x6 card about Santa reads "I was ___ years old when I stopped beliving in Santa", eep. Such a shame.

I just saw KP is the latest guest on the Craft Ass Females podcast. As much as I can't stand that podcast (sorry!) I'm going to listen just to see what she has to say. This is so weird...because I don't read a lot of her posts on IG, but one of the ones that I did had a highlighted comment about wanting to see more of her videos (which from the gist I get are the only times she creates anything for her own memory keeping) and her reply saying that she didn't have time to make any videos, possibly even that she was too busy to scrapbook at all. I get her business perspectives on creating products, but I don't know how she has anything to offer in actual memory keeping since she doesn't appear to be doing any of that.

But when they have a guest, it comes off as two middle school kids trying to get the attention of a “cool kid”. They over-praise to the point that it’s nauseating.

I've never heard of them before. I listened to the podcast tonight and I liked hearing from Kelly but I didn't like their questions...to kiss-assy for me I agree, the questions could have been better and less focused on their personal biases and praises. When interviewing you have to go for what the audience may be interested in knowing about the person--dig deeper and balance admiration with respect. It hurts the flow of the podcast with all the personal excitement, especially when it cuts the guest off. You could tell that Kelly had a few uncomfortable moments with the fans. Introverts have a hard time in the spotlight being praised fanatically. However, I now see Kelly as strictly a designer and not a current every week memory-keeper and this interview allowed me to not hope for future videos and seeing more memory keeping from her. People move on and it seems that Kelly's demographic buys her products because they love the designs whether she's documenting her life or not. Yes, we would love to see her beautiful work, but it's not the deciding factor in our purchases. After listening, I just wish her much self-care as possible especially her mention of not being close to her family and Decembers feeling not so joyful. Peace over everything.

Kristin and Amanda are terrible interviewers in comparison to my usual bunch of podcast hosts. Stark contrast. They could not move the conversation forward and even the (little) interaction between themselves lacked in connection. There was no back-and-forth or anything that felt natural and smooth. Very odd!
I only sat through this to see if anything noteworthy would come from Kelly speaking. I enjoyed Kelly despite the drop in the vocal fry register at the end of her sentences and found some interesting bits of info here and there, including the genesis of hipster Santa and as others have noted, her lack of closeness with her family.

I got a little something extra in my package today too! I think that was really awesome! I’m so glad I resubbed recently. What did you get? I got an extra set of the 3x8 cards, no note or explanation, but they are there. I loved those pieces best, so that is pretty cool. i really love the kit. I think it was worth the 40 I paid. I will use every single bit of it. Got my holiday stuff and my month kit and I didn't get anything extra in there. :/

Be brave, be courageous, my friend! The end is near. (Don't you love Kelly trying to diplomatically un-awkward the conversation so. many. times?)

Oh gosh. I don't think I'll be able to suffer through.
Admittedly, I even unfollowed both of them on IG a long time ago.

If I recall correctly, they were white cards, but the lines and grids were colors (blue, red, black, etc).

I know this isn’t the thread but I listened to the Caylee Grey episode after the Kelly one. I admire Caylee in a big way - a lot of what she says resonates with me.
THEY BARELY LET HER SPEAK

I have Caylee's episode downloaded but after Kelly's, I wasn't too sure whether I wanted to listen. Such a shame! Caylee is actually very thoughtful. Ugh. Such a waste of great guests.
Kelly has announced on IG that the digitals of the holiday kits are coming on the 28th. I wonder which elements she'll offer as digi goods this year. Hopefully, the butter stack makes the cut. 🤞 Heck, I'd even pay for some of the December Details B&W papers and cards.
