The plush and velvet albums are finally in stock at Scrapbook.com
They are doing a "livestream event" today beginning at 9am Pacific to debut them. They typically do a deeply discounted bundle on whatever products they showcase so I'll be waiting to see what that looks like before deciding to buy one.

Personally I would not want a furry album. I wouldn't be able to clean it. I would not like that. ETA: On the other hand I do have linen albums. But for some reason those do not seem the same. Not sure why.

I am very excited about this. I picked up a 9x12 in the dusty rose and mint colors.

I bought a few myself...2 of the mint green 6x8 and 1 of the pink 9x12. I'm really excited to receive them. 😊
I'll be using the 9x12 for my first ever WITL. The green ones are for myself and my oldest God-daughter to document a vacation we're taking the end of June.
I've never cleaned an album so hopefully that won't become an issue. I do dust the ones I have out on shelves. I figure worst case scenario is if they do seem to get dirty I'll make some sort of clear plastic cover for them.? shrug

Please let us know how you like both the Plush and Velvet albums. They do look really cute. I have only done 8.5x11 or 12x12 so the size had me hesitating, but I am tempted.

I have done DD 6X8 for years and it's a great size for that. I have been doing 9X12 for a Disney album I'm working on and LOVING it. I bought this album for that so everything has been in a bag waiting for a home. I've done mostly spreads outside the page protector but I like that there are pp options for when I have a lot of photos to include. My head does not work square so I've never been able to do 12X12. The height is great but it's not so big that's it's overwhelming. You can really fit a lot in the page. My instagram is projectbethlemon I posted some photos before it got overwhelming not having the album. I'll take photos of the rest as soon as I have the album to put them in.

OMgosh I just received my albums. I got 2 green 6x8 and 1 pink 9x12. They're gorgeous!
The fabric on the green albums is very thick and plush. It feels like a baby's blanket. It's very good quality. I'll be using it, along with my God-daugther for whom the 2nd album is for, to document a vacation later this summer. It doesn't come with page protectors and I didn't buy any as I have a lot of 6x8s already.
The pink album is beautiful! It's a Victorian dusty pink not bright in your face pink. lol It's velvet, not as thick as the green fabric but still soft and very nice. Again very good quality. Not sure what I'm going to use it for yet but I'm excited. It'll also be my first 9x12. I did buy pocket pages, the variety pack. It's supposed to be 4 packs of 9x12 variety pockets. I received four packs but the fourth is 8x12, not sure if it's supposed to be that way but no big deal. I like the size variety.
Anyway I'd recommend these albums. They're good quality and really gorgeous. Plus its nice for something that's just a little different.😊

My daughter is already trying to steal one and my husband even gushed over them. I hope they get more colors, even though I fear dusting them will be a pain.

I got my order today as well and I LOVE the mint green album. It feels like minky but it only goes in one direction to pet it.
It's soft and such a great color.
I'm really really happy with it.

Ya'll are getting me so excited for my order! It shows out for delivery, I cannot wait!! I ordered a pink 6x8 and the mint green 9x12. I'm thinking I'll move my stories about my breast cancer journey into the pink one and no plans YET for the mint green. But if the pink is so amazing that I constantly want to be touching it I may decide on something else for it because honestly my pages and journaling about BC aren't ones I enjoying looking at frequently.

I just put all of the pages I have been working on in there and it's nearly full. Guess I scrapped that heck out of that Disney trip.
I'm going to buy another. Now to decide if I need another green or if I need a pink.

I hope they come out with some deeper tones, esp a dark red or dark green for December Daily projects

I picked up two of the mint plush albums and really love them. I got them to use for DD, so we will see if I stick with that or not. I agree with the others though-the quality does feel really nice!

Here’s a photo. Should I try to put more in here? Depends on how much thicker your remaining pages will be for me. Every single one of my DD's has to be tied with a ribbon to keep them contained. :X

Has anyone received the red or green velvet albums? What do you think of the color(s) in person? I am tempted to get one for a December album, but the green is looking a little too intense in the photos on their site. The red or black would also be cute for a Disney album….

The emerald green is quite bright IRL (I believe jeremysgirl mentioned this upon receiving hers). I'm embedding the video from the SBC Fest in which they presented these live. The red is drop dead gorgeous. The black is nice and deep. The green has some zing to it. Hardware is gold, yay!

Yes I think the green was brighter than how it appeared on the website. It's pretty. But definitely more of a Kelly green than a forest green.
