Did anyone sign up for this? Are there any unboxing videos or photos? Google did not reveal anything.

I signed up and got my box last week. I opened it, but haven’t gone through everything. There is an unboxing live on the 18th, I believe. I did go through the guide and I am excited for all the projects.

Yes, unboxing is later this week and folks have been asked not to spoil it so I’d guess that’s why you can’t find anything.
Box is incredible. Packed full! Very generous. I haven’t had time to do any prep yet and will probably do some quickly before the first class and wing the rest. 😂

Ah, got it. A friend is trying to sell her box and I am trying to decide if I want it.

Ah, got it. A friend is trying to sell her box and I am trying to decide if I want it. Hmm…not sure how you would participate though, since everything is through the private facebook group. I guess the videos will be on YouTube, so your friend could possibly share the links. The box is packed and the value just in product exceeds the price, not even including all the education. If you like PinkFresh, and you like lots of pink and florals, then you’d probably like this.

I did the event last year and I thought it was definitely worth it. But I still have so much leftover supplies and never finished all the projects so I really don't need more. I think she'd have to give me her order number or whatever it was that admits one to the FB group.

This year they have 3 full collections (papers and embellishments). One is called Lovely blooms and it's really pretty floral line. One is summer themed called sunshine on my mind. And one collection is tourist mode by Geralyn sy. One class is based on a floral washi and co-ordinating embellishments and one more class is focussed on floral stamp/die/stencil and floral ephemera pack. They have included an alpha die and also one tag looking die to create a mini album.
Hope this helps.

Thank you! Sounds similar to last year's offering. I'll wait for the sneak peek to decide.

I saw the papers and decided to buy the kit from my friend. Only watched the unboxing video (I won't get the kit from her until later) and unless the swag looks better in person, I have to say I'm a little disappointed in it. What did you think?

I’ve had a wonderful day watching and scrapping! I’ve loved all the classes today. I even got two pages done (Kathleen’s class) and two of Paige’s! I’m usually pretty slow so this is a miracle. Ha. Anett’s travel page is 3/4 done too. I can already tell I need more of several sheets in this collection. I’m excited to make some of the make & takes and the extra layouts later. We got so much product! I’m enjoying having lots of choices to change up my titles and other embellishments to fit my photos better. Pinkfresh boxes are extremely generous. I feel like I’ve hit the scrappy lottery with all of these choices!!! Looking forward to Steffi’s class tomorrow AM. And Cele’s mini album is absolutely stunning. I’m NOT a mini book person but I will make it. I actually have an idea of what to use it for, so that makes me excited. I saw the papers and decided to buy the kit from my friend. Only watched the unboxing video (I won't get the kit from her until later) and unless the swag looks better in person, I have to say I'm a little disappointed in it. What did you think? Are you talking about the brass heart dish? I love it! I’ve been using it today for the tiny die cuts and florals. I think it’ll be great to keep sequins and things contained when I make cards. It’s so cute. I’ve been envious of the Pinkfresh designers and their little dishes like this in card videos, so I was thrilled to get it. It’s quite substantial and nice IRL. I hope you like it when you see and feel it.

I loved yesterday's 3 classes by Anett, Kathleen and Paige. I have almost finished all layouts from the class. Planning to do extra layouts shared by Paige and Anett next weekend.
Steffi is also one of my favorite scrapbookers so I am looking forward to her class today. I might not be able to attend Celes's class because I need to go to a baby shower but hoping to get to it when I am back later today.
I do intend to finish make and take projects too. Between classes, make and takes and bonus layouts we will have 16 layouts, 1 card, and 5 minis (I made a list of projects yesterday so that I can plan and finish them in next couple weeks). That's alot of projects and we will still have left overs from most kits (except lovely blooms). Paige pretty much killed the entire kit. I am so impressed.
I did use my heart dish to hold all the die cuts while crafting yesterday. I actually loved it. It does not feel like it's cheap quality.

Okay, you've convinced me to not diss the dish, but wait till I have it in my hands. I didn't get to watch all of yesterday's classes, but what I saw was very inspiring! Just like I felt during last year's event. The extra pages/projects are all great. I'm glad I bought the kit from my friend, even if I can't scrap along.
I wish they offered the choice to purchase additional paper packs or 6x6 pads during sign up, but I'm sure it would be a logistical nightmare.

I’d love to be able to buy the coordinating stamp and stencil for the washi set to add to my box but yeah, I bet that would be tough logistically. Especially since it seems there’s already a time crunch to get the boxes out to internationals.
I definitely want a few extra sheets of papers too. Anett used the B sides of some of my favorites that I want to cut up images to use on my own layouts. And Paige and Kathleen both used that variegated stripe page from the floral collection (Kathleen’s was on a YouTube live last week and Paige's was part of her bonus layouts). I want to scraplift them both, so I need another sheet of that one 😂
