In case anyone is interested, an older DD stamp was added to the DD order selection, marked at $8. Looks like Inked is finding all kinds of shit stuffed everywhere. The semi-circle with the small star design from the paper pad in this year's main kit is on the left! Is everything getting recycled at AE these days? This caught my eye, too...right before I added the stamp set to my box . In all seriousness, though, I truly think this is one of the best items made available this year, even though it's 3 years old. I think the 2017 items are lackluster, to say the least.

Ali Edwards DD update (I sat through ALL the IG stories about the kids being at school while staring at her fake eyelashes only to get to the very last IG story and finally get a DD update!): they will be communicating in the next few days regarding the items that are sold out. They have "a plan". Uh-huh. I'll believe it when I see it.

I saw someone suggest that and she said they were looking into it.

That's already what they're doing when they sell out of the albums for a specific project so I'm baffled it's taken them almost two weeks of the albums being sold out to come up with a plan. I guess it takes a lot of time to get that drawing board out of the closet! As long as the loyal DDers who still want a 6x8 album manage to get one, all will be well.

Well hopefully they will be able to restock items that are sold out. I don't think they worked over the weekend, so they have had 5 days to get things figured out so soon we will see solutions I would think. And after 3 years of site problems one can only hope this won't happen next year.

Well she didn't have her story albums last year. She may have had other albums in stock, I'm not sure, as I didn't really shop with Ali at that time.

Last year they added the white/gold One Little Word album to the December daily selection and marked the price down because it didn't have 31 page protectors and had a smaller spine--she didn't carry her story albums yet, or any albums other than those related to a kit. I think putting the story albums in is the obvious choice... so obvious, they should've been there from the start for people who wanted a more basic album (or have this be an opportunity to come out with them in a few additional colors like white, red, green).

It really is odd that they didn't put them in originally...unless they wanted to make sure they sold out of the main albums.

I wish there was a way to put all of the shop items in the "box" to save on shipping-it seems like it should be possible.

For anyone who missed the albums, chipboard bundle and transparencies, AE now has them available to order.
Good move AE!

Being able to pick up the album and transparencies oddly resolved a great deal of pre-project anxiety for me! Now I just hope it doesn't get cancelled *fingers crossed* !

Glad to hear everyone's going to be able to get the red or green album in the end. I hope the numbers aren't too limited on those second round of selection items or AE may attract some (deserved) criticism. Her IG story did say they'd tell us about it in the next few days, not later that same day. After checking, the transparencies are already sold out again. Oh dear. What a mess. If you say you'll be announcing a plan in a few days, do so in a few days. Don't update your shop late in the day and deprive a bunch of folks, including internationals who are fast asleep. Stick to what you've announced on IG and choose an hour of the day that's acceptable for as many time zones as possible. Don't drop stuff so many people have been waiting for before giving people a fair chance to get them by announcing exactly when.

They could always hold a percentage of products related to their percentage of customers in Europe, etc., for those in other time zones and then release them at the appropriate time of day for those people... and then only allow you to purchase the reserved product with an European mailing address (and Australian, etc.) for the first hour or so that they are live... and then put them in with the general pool of what is left. It would make inventory a little more complicated, but I think it could easily be created with a few minor algorithms.

Considering the inventory issues that they have had, I highly doubt that they have anyone with the skills to pull off that kind of programming though.

Transparencies are currently back in stock. Thanks for the heads up! Rush, DD friends, rush! (I'm guessing they contacted the supplier to ask for even more #badplanning) I'm contemplating doing a chunky vertical 4x6 DD at this stage of the mental prep. It makes it so much easier not to feel tempted to buy extra stuff like 6x8 transparencies.

I'm currently planning on doing mine in my regular PL, so mine will be 12x12, so I'm not tempted at all to get anything 6x8 sized. Unless Felicity Jane's kit has an awesome album that I can't reuse for other projects (I used my album from last years FJ kit for OLW).

Has everyone seen this new stamp from Brandi K for Ellen Hutson? I think it's really adorable and might pick it up for tags on my homemade cookies, but I could see it being really cute to document crafty Christmas gifts in my DD, too. I love "It's Coal" . Link to purchase here: Ellen Hutson
