I’m definitely not on the Ali fan train and this has two of my main scrapping annoyances: alphas with the same qty of each letter, and a number set that doesn’t provide the right qty of each number to use it consistently throughout the project it is designed for. Argh! That makes me crazy! December uses 3 Es, so that’s one sheet done. Christmas uses 2 Ss... etc etc At least attempt to give enough letters for the sheet to be useful for the average person doing this project. And don’t even get me started on the numbers. I’ve been bitching about this since I started doing PL and DD in 2012. We need a lot more 1s and 2s, a few 3s. Not a lot of 6s. The designers who use these products should know that. Even if they prefer to mix and match, they should realize that not everyone wants to (have to) do that. And I would be annoyed to end up buying 4 packs and having something like 10 extra 6s at the end of the project.

I have to share because you all will get it - Hallmark is filming one of it’s Christmas movies in my hometown right now! I can’t imagine it’s very pleasant to film in winter coats in August, but I’ll have to figure out which movie and be sure to watch it! So exciting, eep! Who are the main actors? You'll have to let us know which movie it is when you find out. I'll hunt it down on the interwebz for sure (no Hallmark channel here). The working title is “Christmas on Display.”

Ugh, those tree stamps do nothing for me. Zilch, nada. I feel like the designs belong in 2015-ish...

More trees for me! I like the trees, but I'm not so sure on the triangles though.

I’ll push from my stash - I tend to hoard Christmas collections! And I already bought a page kit for the regular family album Christmas pics from the button farm, so I’m set. Well not set like I’ll actually complete a DD in a timely manner, but I do have the supplies....

Looking at those stamps, I’m wondering if Triangles will be one of the shapes focused on in December Daily Product Play?

Well maybe we should do a Festivus daily ... My atheist soul approves. *gets the pole out* My son was born on Festivus. We did "alternate" birth announcements to send to our snarky family members. In years past, there has been a Wall of Grievances in a neighborhood downtown. I think it will need to be a block long this year. I like the idea of a Festivus album for 2020

If there's any year to embrace the whole Festivus theme, it's 2020.

Pretty Little Studio will have their Christmas line up for preorder. I don't know how to post a link. They have some really cute vellum and acetate pages.

Christmas Cheer from PLS is a line, not a DD kit so I'm just going to update the 2020 Christmas collection thread with it instead. Here's an overview image for those interested:

Im ready to see some AE DD stuff. Other collections are starting to roll in and sell out. If she waits much longer I am going to pick from another company.

She will also appear in a brand new Netflix musical movie called Christmas on the Square with 12 original songs! On the topic of Netflix Christmas movies, the follow-up to the Princess Switch will be released this year, Princess Switch: Switched Again (I kid you not) alongside The Christmas Chronicles 2 as well as a Christmas musical featuring Forest Whitaker called Jingle Jangle about a toymaker's imaginary world coming to life. Excitement galore!

I was planning on using a citrus twist 4x8 album because the 3x8 from Ali worked so well for our quieter Christmas (and let's face it, even here in NZ, it's going to be quieter than usual this year!!) but I think I need to use THIS album - with aaaalllllll the jingle all the way goodies - love the papers and the binder.... hmmmm...

Um... am I the only one who was wondering when she got interested in scrapbooking and what size album she would be releasing? 9x12? 6x8? Come on, Dolly! Then I realized... music, duh. I'm not even sure I can blame 2020 for this... lol It's still exciting, just a different excitement!
