Dearly beloved,
We are gathered here today to witness the beginning of the DD 2018 season! 'Tis that time of the year again: August is upon us, the Christmas collections are lining up in the pre-order starting blocks, the first sneaks of Ali Edwards' DD kits are taking over social media and our bank accounts are preparing for the December madness apocalypse.
Four months to go to December 1st. One-ish month to go for DD pre-order. I declare the silly season open!
Like last year, the OP will be updated as the DD season moves along. I'll do my best to keep up with all the DD kits as the info starts rolling in. Give me a shout if I forget anything! Reminder: traditional SB Christmas/December collections are each discussed in their individual threads on the board.
End November update: Please jump to page 80 in this thread to play along with the December Daily/JYC/"plain" December documenters on the board. We encourage any kind of scrappy December fun. You're welcome to join in with a notebook, TN, album, mini album, layout pages, anything that sparks your creativity. There are no restrictions or obligations. Just hop in, make your presence known and settle in. We have chocolate truffles, Starbucks lattes and a whole lot of gossip. We are also serving fresh daily prompts starting on November 30 in case you're in need of a little inspiration.

dawnnikol julie5 Thank you for confirming Brandi and Citrust Twist! This thread couldn't happen with everyone chiming in with info. DD pre-season is utter madness (or I'm just way too c'est-la-vie-shrug-y about life to keep up with all the designers #whynotboth #itstotallyboth).
A quick reminder of the first IG sneaks for Ali Edwards' DD 2018 product offer:
It looks like Ali's (main?) kit and/or add-ons are heading into a more muted neutral colour scheme this year. There is light pink, raspberry red, black, white and a couple of greens. The die-cut shapes look clean and extremely discreet in terms of design so far. Looking forward to seeing more!

I don't participate/create this project, but do have the late artist formerly known as Prince's "Let's Go Crazy" stuck in my head now. Happy scrapping (&/or singing/dancing along)! youtu.be/aXJhDltzYVQ

I just screenshotted a bunch too lol. I'll let you upload lasteve1. I will say that there is another round of M$LLION DOLLAR CH$PBOARD! 😂

Post by Charwee on Aug 6, 2018 17:14:03 GMT
Thanks for that, lasteve1 Looks like I may give into buying the million dollar chipboard pack, I like those stars. Kraft tags look like a good size. I feel I should really like those fabric stars but I'm feeling really meh about them, although that could be down to it being 32C here and I've just told my daughter off for singing Jingle Bells. It's hard to think about Christmas when we're in a super hot summer!

She also added another sneak. I guess they are selling gift packaging this year as well. She said gift tags and bags that will be available at a different time than the December Daily release.
