I just watched the schedule and story play videos, and I think there goes my plans of beeing successful with less spending. Ugh, although I don’t need them all, but I love 3 kits, the transparency set and 2 stamps.
As others said I don‘t get the concept of facts and feelings, although I could use it for OLW, where this is a huge thing, but nah not for me.
The Color lens for day in the life is genius and I love love love it. 😍😍😍 I Love photography, so this will be very much fun , so those 2 are the stamps I will most likely get. Because it seams there will no international shipping offer, no album for me. So depending on shipping cost I‘ll stick to 3 kits, the transparency and 2 stamps and I‘m fine.

I like it all especially that album. She used to do albums with script on them and I miss them. I may buy two. The colors do seem a bit muted.
Definitely loving the concept and am excited about the various community documenting days. The lens of color is such a fun idea. I’m thinking this would be fun to use to document the four seasons as well.

Enough with the endless churning out of products/releases.
Fact- I have too much Ali stuff.
Feeling - Not interested

I actually like the color DITL theme, but I think I can do it without buying the kit or stamp. It is a creative prompt and I think I have enough from last year - I did not use the gratitude cards yet and they are super colorful - so I am kind of excited about that theme and using it with last year's stamps and maybe even dig into 2022 WITL. Weirdly, I like the photography kit the best. I'm not buying anything yet, but I could see getting the album at some point and possibly a few other pieces. I think these kits would market well to newer customers. For those of us who have been around, a lot of this is repeat content.

DITL kit-I'm in. I like the concept of my day in colors.
Photography-pass. While I love taking pics, I never am inspired by the "photos" or "lens". I came up with nothing with the OLW prompt "light" of 22.
Facts/feelings-pass. I am good for a one page prompt on this in DD, but I can't see myself using up a whole kit.
Little moments-yep! I'm in it for the envelope! Already have the idea for the 12 moments paper=a pic or memory from each month
Album-maybe. I would also house WITL in it.

I quite like the kits and the concept of these mini-projects. I can see myself using them as inserts in my PL album but I will be buying the digital version only and adapting to a different size. The only kit that was a pass from me is the 'facts and feelings' one. I just don't like writing about my feelings - I usually just stick to the facts and some observations.

I like the idea of pushing myself to do different projects. I am debating on the kits, especially day in the life and photography. I do like the album.

This is an interesting concept, but not one I have time for. I LOVE the colors of the DITL set, but that's one project I've never done (and I'm not sure I'd want to do it with a color lens). I'd probably be most interested in the Little Moments set, but I do not like the color scheme. The alpha stickers are a font style I really like, but I refuse to buy sets that have 2 of each letter...we need vowels!

Don’t forget the $5 coupon if you order tomorrow. They send one if you take their survey.
Hopefully I’ll be eligible for free shipping with what I want to order, even with the $5 off.

I'm interested in the collection because I'm taking a hiatus from PL this year, or at least I have so far. I have always loved the Facts & Feelings prompts and I really like the DITL colors/focus. I don't have any subs currently so this is a good choice for me to do some memory keeping this year that won't feel stale.

Anyone else notice the 3x4 stamp sets seem different than before? i first noticed it with the first OLW mini kit but also the 2023 SBTM kits. The stamps were almost impossible to get off the cling but once I did they weren’t very sticky and barely stuck to the block or back on the cling. I thought maybe I was alone but I noticed a couple comments on the blog. Not sure if they switched materials or manufacturer for these stamps. honeypea |

Ali said to contact customer service but that just seems like a hassle to do with every stamp that has issues. |

Not trying to enable, but if you plan on shopping anyway…Use code STORYSHIP through 1/31 for free domestic shipping or $20 international shipping if you spend $75 from the Story Play category.

I finally watched the video. I have to say I really like the album. It is fun and would be good for really any kind of memory keeping. As for the kits, I like the little moments one and the stamp. I've got some time today before everything goes on sale to think about it. But that's the only one that I think I'm interested in. Of course I'm expecting some little quiet moments this year with my grandson.
There will be inspiration for how to use the kits, right? Even if you only get one?

Each kit is going to have a week dedicated to it to work on with the community with free content/inspiration. The little moments one is planned for Sept. the specific week hasn’t been decided, but it’s designated for sept.

I have been doing my WITL in a 3x8 or a CT TN size album (the 6x8 spines are just too large for me and eat up all my shelf space, 10x8 is the same). The actual WITL kits have not been adaptable to this size the past few years, so I mostly relied on embellishments/add-ons from the WITL release and the DITL kit for journaling cards/prompts. I’m thinking that I might use the DITL/colors approach for WITL? Maybe? Or little moments might work well for the WITL or for a month of journaling in my PL. I don’t think I want to do either of the projects as a stand-alone but can see the products working in other projects.

I have to hand it to Ali; she is doing something different this year and is letting us know the plans for the company. There are bits and pieces of these products that I like, but I will probably get the digitals. I think the photography one would be cool to manipulate digitally.
I should probably contact them as well about the 3X4 stamps not sticking. I noticed it with the Jan. SBTM kit but haven't started working with the Feb. kit yet.

It’s so odd that only the 3x4 stamps are different. What will customer service even be able to do if this is just the way the stamps are going to be now?

Ali said the stamps weren’t (supposed to be) different. I haven’t personally noticed that they are but I also rarely use the 3x4 ones. It’s interesting to me that the stamp bundle and the photography stamp are sold out (neither of which I purchased). The photography stamp just seems like a rehash of sentiments I already have from her. I ended up buying more than I planned (per my usual MO) 😂

Because the photo stamp is already sold out and my decision to buy the photography one digitally it leaves now room financially for the album. Decisions, decisions ….

I personally love all of the products and releases. Ali even said that no one is expected to do them all. I like that she offers a variety of options. |

I just ordered the little moments kit and stamp. I did not get the album. I just couldn't think of any reason I needed that album right now. So I reasoned with myself that I would find something else I like better when I'm actually in the market for an album.

I haven't bought anything today from Ali. Just nothing that I *have* to have, as of yet.
