Also for those who ordered albums, check to make sure they aren’t upside down. Saw this posted on the FB group.

paperamy I can't with the stanners. We pay money for this stuff. We expect the correct goods in return. We're not here to mollycoddle AE. Get over yourself, cheerleaders and handslappers extraordinaire. It's as though it's family reunion time and the parents are admonishing the older kids because they told the youngest one his drawing looked nothing like Pikachu or something. "He's just a small child, how dare you? He's doing his best!" So many mistakes already with DD this year. Upside down print album(s), oversold kits, slowest shipping ever, no tracking provided, etc. I really hope the binders dont fall apart eventually.

Get over yourself, cheerleaders and handslappers extraordinaire. I actually saw someone on that album post say “Embrace the uniqueness #unique #everyonewillwantone” The fuck? Everyone will NOT want a crappy made product that Inked either a) didn’t catch in quality control or b) realized the albums were fucked up and hoped the customer wouldn’t notice or care enough to contact support. With Inked, it really could be either situation.

Every year they have a problem with albums, don't they? How did they not notice upside down printing? Are any of them correct?
I don't know what I dislike more, the fact that SC can't do anything right, or the hand slappers! I wonder if SC knew there would be discussions of the DD on their board and that is partly why they shut it down?
AE needs to get out from under SC.

I think when we discussed dcrapdelights kits someone may have said they don't ship to them
They told me today that they do ship worldwide,
I love their kits

So sorry to hear about everyone's customs charges hassles. Did they start changing the value in the parcels? When I used to get my sub the parcels always used to say the same value which I think was $16 no matter how much you ordered. I'm not sure what's going on with customs lately.... I've been charged customs on recent Elle's Studio and a scrapbook.com orders - I've ordered TONS of times from both previously and have never had to pay customs. With the crappy Canadian dollar, shipping to Canada and then customs, the Elle's Studio Christmas kit I ordered ended up being about $75+ Cdn! I love the kit, but it's not worth $75... My scrapbook.com order was also a pretty big one and had a pretty substantial customs charge I am in Canada too and I have been hit several times lately with the HST/handling fee slap from customs as well. One of the charges (because the handling fee is $9.95) I was forced to pay was more than the item itself. Not sure why they are cracking down (maybe I have just been lucky up to this point?) more now but it is really going to curb my purchasing habits which is maybe a good thing but makes me a little bit sad nonetheless.

I didn’t see anyone else say their album was upside down in the comments, but it’s still a pretty obvious mistake that should have been caught.

Well, I had been holding out for KP. But I just don't love it like I thought I would. If the album was bigger I would bite on that, but that it is just too tiny for me. I really like the FJ kit, I am debating on that one. Same here. I think the kits are pretty but not enough to buy.

Well not surprising, but unless I’m totally overlooking them, both the Handslapping post and the upside down album post have been deleted from DD FB group.

I did get the Welcome Card from Ali and won't be using it. If any of my Refugee peas want it, I'll send it your way.

Hand slappers are out in force on the DD FB group. Not that it really matters - but I don't think the card that came in everyone's boxes is actually available for free download. Or atleast, I can't find it.

What's the welcome card everyone is b*tching about in the DD group? I'm curious now. And, of course, still waiting for my DD order to arrive...

It's the same here its deffo curbing my spending, I'm sitting here waiting for a call from scrapbook.com to see if I'm still alive!!!

Some people got a card some didn't
A lot of people seem quite angry that didn't get one
I think it was supposed to be a nice touch that backfired

I had that card in my box but didn't think a thing about it and threw it away. Why would I want to keep it?

I was thinking about using the front of the card in one of the pockets. Still thinking on it though.

So does anyone else think Ali is getting married before Christmas? The reason I ask is because her kits normally are all stars and circles. This year she added hearts in. Could it be a coincidence? Maybe. Anywho - I didn't buy the main kit but I wanted the felt hearts. With the 'wonky heart' cut from Studio Calico, and my silhouette on blade depth 10, thickness 33, speed 2 with double cut - I now have some felt hearts.

She posted pictures of shoes for the their daughters for the wedding and I think there was another shot of the two of them shopping that mentioned it. SaveSave

I would go with coincidence personally, and maybe trying to keep it from feeling so similar year to year (seems like I remember hearing a lot of grumbling about that last year). But there have been several posts on IG that seem to hint at the wedding being in the near future. I do not claim to be a friend of Ali's by any means, after meeting her one time, but I am very happy for them. Aaron came to Story Camp and was just as personable, genuine and nice as I expected from "seeing" him on social media. He certainly didn't have to come or spend hours engaging in real conversations with us, so it certainly felt like he really wanted to be there to support her. You could just really tell how great they are together. In this day and age of edited/curated social media it made me feel good to know that they were just as sweet as I pictured. (And the same could be said for Katie and her husband Peter. I know people appreciate that she does pop in around here from time to time and is gracious and helpful. She truly is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet and the responses you get are not just for the sake of customer service, she is the real deal 😉).
