I am terrible with remembering who posted what, but also wonder who the op was and why they deleted. the original was posted by mrssch on 9/27. It's on page 2. Sorry, don't know how to link it. I think it was a similar 'new things at TM' thread.

I love warmest wishes and the evergreen kit. I will pick up the ornament stamp as well. Hopefully it will be the kick in the butt I need to document my special ornaments. I have ornaments that were my great grandmother's when she was a girl in Norway, along with some spectacular ones my mom and grandparents made. Plus other ones I really love and hold special memories. I want to document them and I took pictures of them all a few years ago. Just need to sit down and do it. This is exactly what I'm hoping to do this year, too. Hopefully that stamp will push me to finally get it done.

I have this kit and I’ve actually pulled two of the 6x8 papers to use for my DD. I think she was also talking about a 12x12 sheet with rows of numbers 1-10 you could cut out. I’m using a gray one with one through ten (I have the perfect story for it) and another that’s white and red with “let me count the ways” 1-5. I made a note to use the 12X12 paper that has the huge numbers on it but the digital file. Each number has a line down the center. My plan is to change the colors of most of the numbers to pastels (or reduce the opacity) and then keep like the 8 and make it bright red or green or whatever. I think that will be fun. Someone used a similar paper in an album she made and when she turned 50 she used that page and did something like that. It was a great idea. I love the kit and am super happy with it. Sounds like a great idea! Denine Zielinski is an AE Ambassador and she posted a layout similar to what you mentioned. It looks so good. Sorry, I don't know how to post it here, but she is @denine2 on IG and the layout was posted on 8/25. She's really talented.

The Halloween kit will be available on September 10th at the cost of $29.99. There will also be 2 4x6 Halloween stamp sets available separately. No Halloween albums but they are considering one for next year. Thank you! What time for non subbers, do you know? I need to set an alarm. I don't think Ali has different times for subbers and non subbers.

Are the two new alphas 4x6 or 6x8? Also, those vellum numbers from the main kit weren't available separately were they? I don't think Kelly does that often, but just wanted to ask. Thank you! Alphas are 6x8. No vellum numbers available separately. Thanks, mich5481!

On their IG stories, they show a Disney font stamp. I'd love to grab that. Here's a free download of the letters: Project mouseIt comes with all the letters and the colored tile things for the backgrounds. I used them in a spread by just printing them out, cutting them out, then layering on the page. So if anyone is low on funds but wants to replicate the look... I found a free font online of the Walt Disney handwriting look too. I will definitely need the washi that is in that sneak. Thanks so much, blemon!!!

The upcoming themes are August: Seek September: Community October: History November: Wander December: Remember Thanks - I meant for the next year, though - like the next few months after what was posted but I guess you couldn’t read my mind. Lol. I’m hoping for things that sound better to me as these last ones aren’t really doing it for me just by the word. But you never know! I should've figured! No worries-probably just my reading comprehension 😀. Hopefully we will hear soon what next year's themes will be!

I think it’s weird that they haven’t posted the upcoming themes for the next few months… I fulfilled my 6 month subscription and I’m thinking of doing an every other month skip just to slow down product. I enjoy the kits but I also get stories by the month and it’s a lot of product. The upcoming themes are August: Seek September: Community October: History November: Wander December: Remember

Is the pill always/mostly in a circular disposition in the US? Ours come in the boring rectangular blister pack... Ours here in the US can be rectangular as well as circular.

I like the kit too, but may just buy the digital set of cards. Will probably cave for the stamp-love that retro vibe.

I made a spring album using gray linen 10x8 album and I loved the format more than I thought I would so I bought another album for the future. I also got a few things from sale section, a few from DD section and a few stamps and new acetate attachers. Also got 9x12 album and a few other things. Shipping and sales tax was $20 but I saved over $70 so the shipping was worth it. I also expected free shipping over $89 but did not get it. I am surprised that after this sale there is a lot of left in Travel, WITL and DITL sections. Wonder if this year DD collection will be huge like last year or smaller. No free shipping had me dropping things out of my cart like hot cakes. Don't over charge me on shipping and then still not give me a decent threshold for free shipping. The reality is that when people don't have extra cash laying around for 'fun stuff' then people are going to be really selective about what they do purchase. And lets face it, $50 kits aren't a real necessity these days for most people. Not when literally everything else is costing more that is a necessity. I think Ali will ride the bad economy storm out but I think she's going to have to realistic about what price point people are able to justify when things are high everywhere. I agree with you. I think rough times are ahead (if not starting already) for the scrapbooking industry. People are going to think long and hard before hitting the checkout button.

Is anyone feeling so bored with the AE brand? I’m just bored with it all. The designs (except the newest travel release) feel “off the Ali look.” The brand ambassador idea feels about 3 years too late. Just how many years were there of the same group of CT members? It still seems that’s going to continue, but now it’s the group of ambassadors who are waaayyyy hyped over every move the brand makes. I get it’s a role to be played (and benefit from), but really? How many times have the stitched pockets shown up for sale now? Are they really that exciting anymore? With WITL and the travel series launched…the DD train will probably begin next month. But remember…it’s not about the products. Never has been. Keep trying to convince yourself of that, AE. I still really like everything AE. Her products fit in most with my style of scrapping. I do also like Heidi, too. As far as the "DD train", etc, let's face it, she's running a business. I can never fault anyone for trying to make a living.

I just saw a comment on her latest IG post that says,"I think you are going to love Utah". In the commenter's bio, it says she is a realtor in AZ and UT.

How did you get the $10 coupon? I have been a Story Kit subscriber since the very first month and never received anything. Mine came in with my Travel mini kit last week. It was like a postcard.

The sale started. I began at 9am and when I went to check out a few minutes later two things were already removed from my cart as being out! I bought too much but I’m happy with what I got - and I also had a $10 off coupon that was sent to me in one of my prior purchases that I was able to use. Thanks for mentioning the coupon. I forgot I had one. Will go back for a few more things😀

I guess we all see things differently. To me, Ali's and SC's kits couldn't be more different. Looking back at the last 2 kits for both, especially. SC borders on the juvenile too often, imo. Ali is much more focused on telling a story. I just prefer Ali's for my scrapping. I don't mind if she uses others to contribute to her kits. They just always work for me. I'm glad there seems to be something for everyone, though, across all the different companies!

At my Jo Ann's, the previous designer papers are still being clearanced out. Some are in the spot where the papers are all displayed with the embellishments, but some are in the big clearance section in the back of the store, too. So maybe check the clearance section if the store you're in has one!
