I am so excited - my package from CT this month has already cleared customs at London Heathrow, which means if I am lucky - I might have new supplies in time for the weekend. Incredibly speedy service from the carrier this month, especially since USPS is taking up to two months and beyond to deliver international mail to the UK. Oooo is this the current kit? Glad to hear it doesn't take to long to get to the UK. I've been waiting months sometimes for scrapbooking kits from Studio Calico which is awful because by the time you get it, it's over and done with.

Current kit but I have to be transparent and say that my parcel was shipped with DHL, not USPS. I don't know how Trina does it but I think if the parcel is over a certain weight, she ships it with DHL as it's more economical price wise. I bought quite a few extras this month so I think that's why my package hasn't come with the standard USPS and means I get it sooner. I'm still waiting on a package from Studio Calico that shipped like 6 weeks ago. It's insane at the moment!

I'm waiting on my first ever CT order... a few stamps and those strips they sell for their albums. I'm international and I have about 5 or 6 orders from the end of April I'm impatiently waiting on! Plan on getting a CT album when they restock the colours I want 💕

Yup, want, need them all!! Gonna have to place that order quickly cause I have a feeling these are gonna sell out pretty fast. And who knows how quickly they will be replaced, I've been waiting on some page protectors that have been out for a few months now that she said where finally arriving with this order!

Do their albums only come in one size?

I was scrolling Instagram and saw these albums someone shared in their stories. I knew for sure there would be talk of them here! I’m not a subscriber to CT but I’ve definitely got my eye on these. I’m planning on trying to snag a couple.

I picked up two of their albums earlier this year and the quality is fantastic. They’re restocking black and grey as well which was my original plan but these colours 😍 have me rethinking that.

Do their albums only come in one size? Yes. At first I thought it would be difficult as I’ve really only done 12x12 scrapbooking but now I’m completely hooked and can’t wait to do another.

She also said she is restocking the goldenrod colour - which is going to be interesting to compare against the other yellow .
The album (closed) is 6 1/2 inches wide by 9 1/4 inch length,. Spine is 1 3/4 inches . Side by side next to ali's 6 by 8 albums - its about 1/4 inch shorter - so i.m.o looks good, side by side
inside the page protectors (including seam) are 5 inches wide by 8 1/4 inch in length - they are the same length + holes line up with Ali's 3 by 8 page protectors
they can fit a TN page width 4 1/4 inch. I have to shave off a mm or 2 of Kelly Purkey's TN pages to get them to fit inside the protector
I'm really sold on this size now

The new albums are up on the Citrus Twist website. The new colours are 😍. The only thing is I wish there was a bright green. I picked up a clementine and a candy apple one but I want them all!

Using so much willpower to resist buying three. I don’t need more albums. I have so many that need to be used.

In the morning when I get up, I've had no trouble in purchasing what I want. I picked up one of the albums in Peony. I am using a CT album for my wedding planning scrapbook but it's green, and my 2019 albums are pink. It's a no brainer to get Peony to match my other albums from that year!

Do their albums only come in one size? Yes - it's TN size. The overall dimensions of this album are 6.5" x 9.25" with a 1.75" spine.

I’ve wanted to try the albums for awhile and hearing that they work with Ali’s 3x8 pp too sealed the deal. My son and daughter chose their colors: Sapphire Blue and Flamingo respectively. I really love the gold bookplates as I don’t like silver bookplates and typically spray paint the plates gold when the only option is silver.
Now, I kind of wish I had purchased calypso, merlot, goldenrod, and fir green to the wishlist they go! I seriously would get a batch of fir green as a uniform DD album and never have to worry about which album to get again if they were ever on sale or a discount code was provided.

I'm a new subscriber since Kelly Purkey is no longer making new products. Could someone tell me if there are any cut offs for when we can bundle? So, if I pick up a couple of these new albums, will they be automatically bundled in June's kit?

When Trina has her next imperfect album sale, I'm going to get a whole bunch. They were priced at $13.50 per album and I'm really happy with them.

So, if I pick up a couple of these new albums, will they be automatically bundled in June's kit? From the website: Do you offer bundled shipping for your subscribers? Yes. We offer bundled shipping for our Life Crafted kit subscribers. Place your order on or before the 3rd of the month if you’d like your order to ship bundled with your kit. NOTE: If your order comes in after your Life Crafted kit has shipped we will hold the order to ship bundled with your next outgoing kit. I placed my order, flamingo, calypso, turquoise, and candy apple will be coming to a nice home!! I also ordered the February kit and started a subscription. I can't wait! I just signed up too! I only got two albums because I also ordered a bunch of the page protectors.

I signed up for a subscription and then picked up the grey album + some page protectors last night and got charged for shipping on both orders. I'm going to guess I'll get one shipping charge refunded?

I would email her and she will definitely help you out!

Going forward, you'll get the code in one of the welcome emails that you should use to add things to your monthly kit shipment. I have ordered a week or more before reveal using it and I love that option. Enjoy the kit!

I haven't gotten a welcome email yet with any sort of code so I'll keep my eye out for that as well.

I need every one of those new album colors, but started with the Clementine and Flamingo colors and an assortment of page protectors. I really like that there's such a great variety of colors now and a nice selection of page protectors. And for those who haven't bought one before, they even include a printable set of journaling spots for the smaller pocket in the protectors (the link is emailed to you). At one time they also emailed you a full sheet of printable labels for the spine, but I see now that they are free in the shop. There isn't an image shown, but if it's the same as what I have from a prior album purchase, there are options for every style. Here's the link for them: CT Album Labels.
