Got a screenshot, but now that I see it as a still, it looks more like a box rather than an album. Maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part š«¤ Yep, that's her normal box that the main kit usually comes in. I still have quite a few of them from over the years. |

Seems like a lot of us are hoping for more 6x8 stuff.
I'm really liking the knitted sneak. If it is an album, please, please let it be 6x8!!

Warehouse sale - underwhelmed
Dd sneaks - also underwhelmed apart from the numbers
A little sad but I think my bank balance may be happy this year?!??
I just canāt stand any collections with maroon red and tomato red in the same items
Thanks for the screenshots mom Iām not on Insta so I rely on the peas keeping me informed š¤

I like the ornament pocket. I've been using the heart pockets for projects and I really love them. I'm not that into the font of the red numbers but I will get them because I love stapling a plastic shape on a layout or popping one in a pocket. I really loved the kraft pockets from the travel kit and am definitely interested in these. I don't usually do too much kraft in my DD as I tend to go for brighter colors but maybe I could do some stencil action on top. I am 100% all about that embroidered thing. I'm sure it says Let Your Heart Be Light. I'm hoping it's not the cover of a 10X8 album. Can't wait to see more. mom thanks for sharing the sneaks. I need to work on uploading pics not from Instagram. As usual I'll probably pick up a few things then go back and add more to my box after seeing more of how they're used. I won product play last year from an Instagram post they were doing and I really enjoyed it. I think I'll see how much it costs. Most of the ideas you could figure out from just a photo. So that sucks for the first couple of days as people are excited and sharing. But then for the rest people weren't getting to it so there was some good stuff. |

I really like the Bah Humbug tag. Probably not enough to buy a kit or anything though. š

What do you think the fabric/embroidered (Let Your Heart Be Light) thing is? An album?

Consider me intrigued about embroidered/stitched??? Thing. Wry curious.
As always loathe the handwritten font. The sneaks definitely seem geared toward 10x8 size.
Not impressed by 4x6 cards/vellum. And I found the craft pockets hard to use for WITL.
Overall, too soon to tell.

I was starting to wonder if Ali is phasing out the 10x8 size. The travel kit doesn't have any 10x8 papers like last year, and in the new travel class, 6x8 is the only size being used by all 4 of the designers. I'll be curious to see for DD.

Iāve enjoyed the 10x8 size but wouldnāt be upset if it was phased out. However didnāt she say in a live recently that there would be new pp designs for that size eventually? Maybe I am miss remembering that lol.
That āloveā pocket looks 4x4 & itās interesting that there are holes. Maybe there will be a 4x4 mini album?

Right now, my big complaint is the holes already being punched in that 'December around the house' tag. I HATE when the holes are already there on tags.

For some reason I think the knitted sneak will be a book bag or something not scrapbook related. Probably because I really like it and don't buy not scrapbook stuff. The so much joy overlay looks to be 10x8 so I don't think we are done with that size. I tried the 10x8 and I just don't like it. I think it is hard for me to affordably get pictures as big as I want them to be. I like the other sneaks but need to see more.

The knitted sneak looks like a pillow cover to me.
Maybe she's branching out her seasonal decor items?

Now that you mention it, yeah, I bet that it's either a canvas wall hanging (like that would hang from a wooden rod) or a pillowcase. There is a fold line so I don't think an album cover would have that. |

So far I like the colors. I can get on here now and be ho-hum about DD but then the day of be like everyone else refreshing my screen and filling my cart. Ie whatever feelings I have now mean nothing because Iāll probably end up buying this yearās DD.

There is a fold line so I don't think an album cover would have that. Good eye! I did not notice that! And if the text is "let your heart be light" it would be very oddly centered in the middle of 10X8. |

The āSo Much Joyā vellum looks like itās 10x8. Sigh. I would also like more 6x8.
Iāll bet the fabric thing is part of the apparel collection mentioned in the email.

I stated last year that the 10x8 paper was not fair to those that do 6x8 because you couldn't cut all the papers properly to use. So I really hope that that isn't the case this year. I don't want 10x8 paper in the main kit hope it is 6x8.
