Welp, I gave up watching the videos after the video on how to do the gingerbread house. Its just not style or what I want to do in my album. Hopefully others will bee inspired though.

I only watched a couple minutes of each one. Just wasn't my thing this year unfortunately. I haven't checked Tim's video yet, so I'm holding out hope. Otherwise I would say it was a bust for me.  |

I enjoyed Timās video and think his ideas are useful and doable.

Ali's last window tree project is great! She explains it in lesson #12 but the free file is on lesson #11. She's going to show it on her blog when she uses it.

I haven't watched any of it yet. Too much excitement watching the news today and celebrating with friends and family over Zoom! I did do a 2-page spread for Day 7 of my 30 Days of Gratitude TN, which featured Biden & Harris.  I'll watch the videos tomorrow and next week. |

I'll watch the videos tomorrow Me too. Just too much divided attention today. And a bit less fun for me than last year somehow on the sessions I did watch (through Pam's) |

I couldn't get in the mood of this particular DD prep day. I didn't vibe with Tazhi + Krystal as live presenters. I'll get back to the class videos later on, I'm sure. I feel like this lacked in professionalism a bit. It's only 5 dollars, so I'm not particularly disappointed. I keep telling myself the same thing. Honestly, it reminds me of them on InstaLive and well, thats fine if thats what you are wanting to watch. But I wanted to see Ali and all that she brings to the table. But, again, its $5 and Ali probably would want to charge more for her to be there more. You're right, but it was Ali all the time last year and it was still 5 dollars. Eta: I stopped watching after the 4th hour so I'm just stating a fact. Though I tend to agree with you so far, mom . |

This year they kept the price so no one would complain about the price increase and instead of Ali all day, you got less of Ali but got to keep the same price. |

I kind of like the 5-10 minutes of live talk and then the pre-recorded videos. Hope Ali and her guest instructors do more of that in future. The all-live seems a little harder for me to watch, somehow. But so far, having a wonderful day playing! I had zero issues with the prerecorded videos with lagging or sound like I did with the live parts There wasnāt a live segment that didnāt have a streaming issue for me so it was odd that I had zero issues with the prerecorded. Iām guessing the issues werenāt on my end? |

I still think that if she did it once, she could do it again at the same price. There were about 500 people showing up live (when I paid attention) so it's still a lot money for 12 hours even if she 'shares' with Inked, etc. We'll see what happens next year. As for this year's class, I should have read the class description more closely because I didn't realize Ali would only appears twice and for a few minutes. My mistake. |

Krystal and Tazhi just weren't my cup of tea at all. Such a bummer. Still worth the $5 for the downloads but the rest didn't keep my interest.

I should have paid a little more attention to what I signed up for I guess. When Ali makes her DD pages, especially her interactive ones; I get so inspired. I was wondering if she just doesn't want to share at that cheap of a price (anymore). Maybe to make us sign up for the Product Play? |

I figured Ali had other teachers (host) this year because last year people made comments that they would like other people besides just her.

It seems like last year there were more project/page and technique ideas and multiple examples - vs a lot of chatter and less structure this year.

I lost interest after hour 7. Iām not the most patient when it comes to watching videos. From what I did see, it was ok, perhaps worth $5, but not nearly as good as the WITL prep day.
I donāt mind the different narrating styles - I think thereās a lot of dead air to fill - it just depends on my mood. I am not capable of just sitting and watching a crafting video, I have to be doing something else too, so itās easy for me to tune out somewhat if I am annoyed or bored. Maybe thatās why high energy hosts donāt bother me.

I havenāt watched the replay yet, but I have to say that I am not a fan of the live FB style of videos, and much prefer the old YT style scrapping videos. I find the FB live videos to be too chatty, too much interacting with live viewers in the moment and not staying on topic, and frankly, much too long. I will plan to have this one on the background for scrappy chatter rather than the ātutorialsā I was hoping to see...Looking forward to the digitals though |
