I’m hoping she’ll stick to videos as I loved her work. The video she posted today of her photo album had really nice photos. Maybe, she’ll add to it more as she suggested she’d like to. I’m always excited to see photos and videos of work because I really lack this meta sharing of documenting documented memories lol. Maybe one day I will get there.

The video she posted today of her photo album had really nice photos. Here's KP's first PL video in well over a year:
Very little embellishing and journaling so far. A lot of filter use. Overall vibe is really hipster. It's pretty close to the kind of PL albums I've been making the past few years. I genuinely think you can do something similar with free fonts, Photoshop (or something similar) and a few sets of stamps from your stash, some basic cardstock like white and kraft. It's a very cheap way to document life besides the album and PPs.

I wonder if she will use any more of her kits and stamps to fill those holes. Kinda hope so.

FYI: I am a subber and will be receiving the January Birthday Wishes kit but I am willing to sell it if anyone is interested. I will sell it for $28.50 which is what I paid. $24.50 + $4.00 shipping. PM me if your're interested. Had I known earlier I would have purchased it from you. I purchased every kit this month and that hasn't happened in forever.

The TN is sold out and the main will probably sell out too in the next week or so with the low number in stock, so I am sure you will have no trouble selling it. I just wish I had a discount again after splurging tho month 🤣🤷🏾♀️

So glad to see her sharing and scrapping again. I really like her style as well.
I'm interested to see how she finishes the album out. Hopefully she shares that before next year! I ended up doing the same thing with my 2017 and recently finished it. I still haven't scrapped a single solitary thing for 2018, but I printed the photos and dropped them in the album (I'm 9X12) I really liked the 12 black and white photos in the 12 pocket page. I struggle to use those well. She also mentioned she just adheres the page protectors if the facing pages are the same configuration she wants the flow of her album to follow. I've never done that, and may try it.

Glad to see her creating again. Wish she was utilizing more product (especially her own) in the album. It looks like basically a photo book.

Thank you for sharing pancakes! I watched her video again, with sound this time. It really got me going last night. I also ordered some IACB digitals, and got a huge trip done last night in my 2018 PL (I do mostly chronological but not structured, kinda PL.) It was 13 spreads that covered 2 weeks in Ireland. I needed the push!

Also, yes, the excitement was real when I saw itsmekp23 had posted a new video. Spiderwebs galore and a coat of dust in her YT account...

Just saw the creative team line-up and I am interested in seeing the work that each woman does. Hoping for more sneaks before the 15th and they may just get me to re-subscribe. It has to be one of the most ethnically diverse creative teams I've seen thus far. The ladies styles are also very different from each other. Nice to see Julie back as she brings a younger millennial feel to the team.

Nice to see Julie back as she brings a younger millennial feel to the team. I'm also happy to see the people who landed on the DT. Juli's style isn't my favorite (I think it's the way she edits her photos...they're very gray?), but it is def nice to see someone on the younger side (and kid-free) for sure. I'm glad Barbara Picinich is still on there. I really like her work. I feel like she often comes up with fresh-feeling ideas. Also excited that Azzari Jarrett is on there, because I don't feel like we've seen much of her in recent years. Honestly, there isn't a person on there whose work I don't enjoy looking at. And there is a Friday Freebie for Valentine's Day. Link to the email to download: mailchi.mp/9d867656c392/tl3a94kusp-1392165?e=454e77dc85

I am also loving these free digitals being sent.

So, now that SC is charging sales tax, will KP have to since she is one of the states that don’t have sales tax?

Like others, I’m happy to see some diversity in her creative team. I think it strengthens her brand that it’s not all white 40 year old women with kids represented.

Yes, sales tax is based on location of the customer, not business. But there might be exceptions in some states if she doesn’t have a ton of customers located there, I really have no idea the size of her customer base. Also, although I love Kelly’s style and personality, she doesn’t seem to have hired legal advice throughout the years (e.g. she blatantly violates copyrights on a regular basis) so I wouldn’t be surprised if she ignores the new laws until a state comes after her for it (if they ever do, which would again depend on how much business she had in the state).

I was really surprised at how obviously Harry Potter-y her second HP release was. I was expecting something far more toned down and in the spirit of rather than blatantly HP. JK Rowling is notorious for being aggressive in pursuing franchise "exploiters."
Also, lasteve1, loving all the tax explanations. Obviously, I'm not concerned by this but it's nice to have a pro Pea weigh in when questions are asked and can be answered by someone in the know.

I appreciate it very much. I am just lucky to live near enough Oregon that I can enjoy their tax free status. I use amazon locker a lot for just such a reason. When KP starts charging tax then I will just have stuff shipped to my oregon address. The online sellers must have to send the tax collected to the proper state, right? What a nightmare that must be.

I got my sub yesterday and the only thing I can find to complain about is the fact that the stamp packaging is no longer adhered together with the giant sticker type label. I'm sure it saves on packaging, but I'm running low on good washi to keep the two sheets together. :X
Otherwise, I'm happy with the kit (PL, not TN) and the cursive alpha I bought.
As for her HP stamps, I love them, but I would hate to see her get into trouble. I'm a huge fan, so coming up with non-specific type things that are still very much "HP" would be fun. I'd also toss in some Fantastic Beasts too since I feel like the films are excellent and have been overlooked for merchandise. And don't get me started on another Disney type set. I think she could do an amazing villain set, but not sure there'd be enough sales to warrant it? Anyway..

I had a huge stash (or what I would call "huge") and then I decided to let my kids have free run of them. It went SO FAST! LOL! I've had to hide a few of my favorites and now that the novelty has worn off, they don't go through it as fast, but I'm down to less than 15 rolls.

She could do it for her September release (or even August, depending on how long international takes?) Her Parks and Rec references always make me happy, too, but I know Barb and some of her other CT members are big Disney/HP fans. Their gallery would be fantastic.

I use packing tape all the time for other sets and it works. On a side note, I got my order and it seemed that the backing plastic sheet (the one without printing on it) was quite thin compared to previous sets. I know she wants to cut down on plastic but I hope this isn't a permanent change because it's flimsy.

I might be the only person but I feel the cards are almost too thick and a little big. I have to cut the sides to fit some pockets and if I use two KP cards it’s pretty tight. Silly things to complain about. On a good note, I got my order yesterday, super quick! I guess they got tired of me emailing them about my order.
