2023 megaaa DECEMBER DAILY thread (ALL December projects)

thanks!

In addition to the physical products, I am planning on buying the hybrid class, and the prep day. I might buy a few digital products this year to use with the hybrid class, but we’ll see when the time comes, I like that there’s not a rush for the digital products.

Good luck this morning ladies!

Love this, thank you for sharing. I think I’m going to pick some of these up.

Having gone through my DD stash and rewatched the release videos, I am still on the fence about the albums and shop items. I have a healthy DD/Christmas stash but like having at least some of the items from the current year so I can “play along” with the classes and designers. I definitely need to buy less this year, though 🤞

Album: I am torn between doing the 6x8 size this year or the 10x8. I might be going to NYC in Dec this year, so may have more photos than usual. I don’t really like the design of the 10x8 album this year—I may look at the 10x8 Linen album in her shop if it’s included in the boxing period. I’m just not sure how many photos I can put in the 6x8 size w/o going to 2 albums, which I don’t want to do. If I get a 6x8 album, it will be the White w/Gold Stars.

Kit: I missed out on the Paislee Press kit last year, which I regretted, but this year’s Paislee Press kit is very thin compared to previous years offerings, so I will pass on it. I like most of the main kit, so will go with that.

Stamps: I got a few sets last year, so am planning to just get the Tag stamp set and maybe the Numbers stamp set. I can use both of those on other layouts besides DD, so will get more use from them.

Other Shop Items: Will get the Plastic Tags for sure, the Die Cut pack, and the Specialty Paper pack. I am a maybe on the Die Cut Paper Inserts, Envelope Bundle, Painted Wood Veneer Stars.

Most of the leftovers I have from DD 2021 and 2022 will go well enough with this year’s offerings, so I really need to remember that I have PLENTY of supplies to make a nice album. (And am still hoping for a good Paper Person release, and maybe Pinkfresh). I am also hoping for some good discounts on previous DD items that will be added near the end of the boxing period. 🤞

Now I just need to stay firm and not give into FOMO during the (very long) boxing period 🤣

I know Ali will do something amazing with those die cut foiled ornaments in the die cut pack (especially because she also said she loves the ornament paper), but they're not my thing so I'm ordering either of those products. I'm sure I'll regret it when I see what she does with them.

I'm sticking with the tag theme today - plastic tags, chipboard tags, and pocket tags. I don't know why, but this is what I'm feeling this year.

What do we think will sell out first?

Im guessing paper packs.

I did the math, and its like $1.85 a day. Some days, sure. The $$ is there. But others? Not so sure.

Which album will go first? I was surprised the stars and green seemed pretty equal in the stories DD did for the giveaway.

Why is my heart rate going up? This is so stupid. 🤦🏻‍♀️

May the odds he ever in your favor buying your favorite items! 😂
Ali and Lisa said a couple times they increased the qualities if items this year so maybe no quick sell outs. I think green album will be first album. And plastic tags might be first embellishment - but she did say she bought a lot so it might be a different embellishment with a lower quantity like the die cut pack.

Got everything I wanted with only minor IT issues...most of the photos aren't loading and the top nav bar wasn't changed until after 9 a.m.

Same. Minor IT issues and no photos for me.

I got everything I wanted. A few minor IT glitches, but I knew what I was ordering, so photos not loading wasn't a big issue for me.
