10 Cards 1 Kit | 2018 Simon Says Stamp July Card Kit | Cool Summer

[@DianaHernandez-kn1ne]

It's totally your choice, but I prefer the quick unboxing and straight to the cardmakig. All the cards are so fun, love them all but my favorite is the watermelon card. AWESOME job, tfs

[@michellerickard1290]

Prefer a fast unboxing and then straight into the kit, thanks! Great job!

[@sylviag3576]

Hey you don't ever need to apologize for a hubby working. I liked this format, quick overview and on to the great ideas! And now I know what the solid black circle is, lol.

[@lonyamathys7131]

I usually skip the unboxing videos because there are so many and I like to be surprised when my kit comes. I really like this kit and your ideas are great.

[@janbryan3672]

I like to see a really! Quick unboxing and then get into your wonderful card making Lots of people do unboxing but you are the only one with the inspirational card designs done your way

[@stellarcraftsbypam]

I agree that there’s always plenty of people doing unboxing... but some make it more interesting than others. Talking about ideas for using the products in various ways makes the video helpful :)

[@peggymallon4585]

I've never really said anything about the unboxing videos because I like to support as many people as possible but since you asked: they do get a little tiresome and I find that I do skip some. It is nice to have a quick little preview, though, just to make sure I've got all the right papers and things. It is also nice not to have to search everywhere six months down the line when I want to finish up something or other. I agree with you about transitions, I like them smooth, too. Great cards, thanks, as always for taking the time to make the cards and share them with us.

[@katherinetaylor5323]

I liked the way you just unboxed and made the cards. My fav was you're one in a melon.

[@beverlystotz5652]

I love the sunshine card!! So bright and cheerful! You know how I feel about unboxing videos, but I know there are some who appreciate them. Having said that, I would prefer separate. I just want to get straight to the cards!! Haha!

[@bonnieshultz3422]

Prefer you going straight to the cards; there are so many unboxings. Really cute cards!

[@karenpalmeri85]

The watermelon card is my favorite. I like the quick unboxing and straight to the cards. You always do such a great job and you always keep it real!

[@LilCraftyNook]

Quick, abbreviated unboxing then cards!👍🏻That sun stamp is so cool! Quicker to just stamp the yellow than have to color each one! IMHO, that stamp should read “Be THE flamingo in a flock of pigeons”! TFS!❤️

[@pk7094]

Alicia, as far as unboxing goes, too many out there so I prefer a quick and cards done at the same time. Very thoughtful of you to ask your viewers. I didn't care for this kit but your cards were great.

[@angelakenny6500]

So many others do a long unboxing .yours was just perfect . Love your cards ,also like the way you rescue the card you didn’t like. Thanks for sharing.

[@pipz3305]

I personally don't watch unboxing videos, I enjoy seeing the card-making process for ideas to adapt to my own supplies as the card kits are out of my budget due to very high shipping costs to Australia.

[@judyholman7304]

Great cards. I like the quick unboxing.

[@jeanannmoale7295]

I like unboxing, as it helps me decide if I want the kit. Either way is fine. It's kind of like a try before you buy😉

[@lauramurphy438]

Hello , My favorite card is the one with the butterflies. I like all your cards. I like the quick unboxing at the beginning of the video and then the making of the cards best. TFS

[@conniespaperparadise3848]

I vote for a quick unboxing followed by 10c1k please! I don’t know how you do all you as well as you do it anyway! Whew!! TFS Ms Alicia!!❤️😍❤️

[@funluvinchick]

The one in a melon card is my favorite. As for the unboxing, I am good either way. I like watching them to see what products are available.

[@JoanOrloffDK]

I like the way you did the unboxing and then the 10 card 1 kit 😀 all the cards are beautiful 😍 love them ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity

[@Andyscrap]

Your right. Many people do unboxing, but love it! Love the cards you made and wishing you many more sunny days!

[@Fit_Kitty]

I don't watch unboxings but I like to see the cards you made. A quick unboxing like you did today is good, sort of like telling us what products you're using. My faves were the pineapple, cacti, and butterflies.

[@mikfred4154]

I like the unboxing separate, they tend to be long and I like to get right to the card examples. You have great ideas and beautiful cards.

[@martharoberts2167]

Your cards are terrific! I like the way the “unboxing” was in this video. Like you say we see many unboxings of the same kit. Thank you for the video! I think my favorite card was striped background w/the cacti.

[@soykabeans2055]

Quick unboxing then cards in one video. So much better because SSS already does an unboxing.

[@MissOnigur]

just a quick unboxing, but I LOVE that you inspire me. I've made 10 cards earlier today from the kit. Can't wait to see your creations!!

[@georgannsmith1827]

Nice cards! I think I like the cacti card the best. A brief unboxing is best - because I watch several channels that give a detailed unboxing.

[@jennsaunders3612]

I like it this way. I tend to avoid longer unboxing videos but I want to see what's in it so this quick run-through of the contents was perfect for me. Thanks!

[@carolineturner3148]

How can anyone not love the unboxing? 😁 I just love the unboxing videos. I enjoy the unboxing in a separate video by itself or along with the card making video too. Either way. There may be other unboxing videos out there, but they are not all alike that’s for sure. I prefer and only watch yours now! I learn a lot from you, so thank you for that! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

[@CrazyPaperChick]

Thank you Caroline! :)

[@julieharden158]

Love the fish and water melon cards, thanks for the inspiration.

[@nesyacollings]

I usually skip the unboxing because I have seen several times but I didn't mind the quick unboxing. I really liked the fishing card. I don't think anyone else used that paper and now I'm wondering why not?! It's perfect. I will have to case that one.

[@joym7796]

I liked the quick unboxing and then moving on to the carss. My favorite card was the watermelon one.

[@artsofgold]

Hi Alicia, I also like a quick lil' overview and then seeing your cards! The cactus card stuck out to me :)

[@lianpalm2326]

Card 4, 5 and 8 are my favorites but all the cards are lovely. i like this type of unboxing but a seperate one is fine aswell

[@florencesmith4142]

Wonderful cards love the watermelon one it is refreshing looking. TFS

[@roxannetucker5813]

Really cute set of designs with this kit. I do watch a lot of demonstrator's who show the same unboxing kits. So, if you decide not to show those anymore, it won't be offended. I like seeing the card designs you do more than anything! Have a great evening.

[@melissaestes]

I like the quick unboxing. I'm not a fan of stickers, so I really appreciate card 10. Ths.

[@SharonLuska]

You rock for keeping it real. Being creative is so often about persisting and perfecting. How else would we learn if we didn’t just keep trying? Love what you come up with...thanks for sharing 💕

[@mrsmorgann0000]

Nice cards, Alicia... you got your mojo on these... cards #5-7 are my fav... to be honest I bypass the unboxing and get straight to the creativity. But you do you...we'll be happy with whatever.

[@sooz617]

I like a quick unboxing review and into the 10 cards. I don't mind if that makes the video longer. My favorite cards are the cactus and the 'one in a melon' card.

[@dingfriesaredone]

I like that you did the preview and then the cards.

[@conniespaperparadise3848]

PS I love the watermelon card the best followed by the first flamingo card!!

[@kaceeboxers3580]

Quick unboxing, then on to the cards! Love your creativity!

[@carmencasillas3793]

I liked the one with the cactus.

[@barbarabartlett4329]

Quick unboxing and straight to cards. This is a really packed kit. ❤️

[@aprilparker5608]

I won’t genuinely watch an unboxing if i know I’m not going to get the kit, but I love to watch cards made using a kit regardless. I like the way you did this one. Then again, I watch anything you do. I have to giggle at you joining the #copiclovers . They really do make coloring fun. I think it’s the brush. I’ve tried spectrum brush type markers and it’s just not the same. Loved all of these cards, but for some reason that happy little sunshine 🌞 was my fav.

[@CrazyPaperChick]

It has to be the brush tip. It's a game changer!

[@nancysindelar5496]

Great cards Alicia, I always enjoy your videos, I have a few favorites.......also I'm with you on the Versa fine my absolute favorite black ink

[@strivingandsurvivinghayes7782]

My fav was the watermelon card.🤗🤗

[@lisak-inkplaylove9353]

I like this format better. Great cards and thanks for sharing!

[@j9cardstock354]

I usually watch the SSS unboxing. I like your cards. It’s a great kit this month. My arrived yesterday. The fishing and cool pinaepple cards are my favorites. I also love the stuck on you card. Thanks. Jeannine

[@madgehaynes2258]

Nice set of cards there. I prefer the quick unboxing.

[@sprgstn1016]

I like quick unboxing and getting right into the cards. :)

[@ivymarino1]

I like it this way. Love the ten cards 1 kit.

[@kellyryan3207]

I prefer unboxing's to be separate! But it is easy to fast forward that bit!

[@mariegailgladue6759]

I love card making and also unboxing.

[@jaydescott8737]

I like the cactus card best 😀

[@karentatnall8230]

Quick unboxing then onto your amazing cards.

[@jacquelineb.3907]

I love, love Stampin' Up ink and stamps!!! The next time I place an order, I will check you in mind. I also love VeraFine black ink, great for sediments. I would like to see a quick preview of the unboxing before you make the cards.

[@traciesoliday2746]

I love how you do your videos! Like I have said before (because Im a stalker 😉) you have the most down-to-earth manner about yourself. So enjoyable to watch, and relatable. If you goof, you don't edit it out, so that speaks to me. Because I sure as heck ain't perfect! My opinion, keep on doing as you have.☺ Love the watermelon card. So simple & summer. That sunshine stamp is adorable. And the flamingos!!!! 😍😍 They're my spirit animal. L💖VE THEM!!!

[@CrazyPaperChick]

LOL, you crack me up! :)

[@noorasstudio]

Quick unboxing and start with the cards

[@jackiegagnon7158]

Short unboxing and on to card making!

[@corinnehuttle3257]

i thought the cards you made with this kit were among your best. there are many unboxing so if you don't do them that is ok. i would like to see older kits being used with newer ones

[@debbiehaney8996]

I like the way you did it this time-1 video

[@debbieogrady3175]

I use the Versa Fine all the time.

[@blondecardsncrafts]

I enjoyed the format of this video Alicia... favourite card is the butterfly one at the end and the 2 flamingos card 😍😁❤

[@margaretschmidt7451]

Oh man, you’re #9 💩 card was hilarious. I love that you show what we all do at some time or another which is try to fix one that we just don’t like.

[@lindalovescrafting4551]

Favorites, the pineapple and watermelon cards. Too Cute! Like the card making the best. Also could you show a close up of the glitter pen? Having trouble finding it, your link doesn't go through. Thanks for sharing, just love your videos. Linda

[@CrazyPaperChick]

I updated the link. The single pen is no longer on their website it appears. It is out of stock, but at least you can see what it looks like.

[@Jennifercruzcreations]

I prefer two separate videos because I love to see the coloring and you might cut it out if the video is too long :) I love the watermelon card, but they are all cute !

[@carmenchiapa2323]

Do the videos like this one. I liked the watermelon card the best, cause I love to eat watermelon so much.

[@courtneyscornerofcraftsand3226]

I preferred that unboxingvideo

[@deborahclark6186]

Go right into making the cards.

[@sophietennyson4103]

My favorite was the b/w striped card with the cacti....I think (especially once school restarts) that eliminating the SSS unboxing and just doing a video like this might save you some time. Perhaps with some lesser known companies an unboxing would be useful to familiarize potential subscribers with the kit contents, but all in all I find a quick look at the beginning sufficient.

[@susicaldy]

Where did you get the Love from Lizzy strips?

[@sharonlarson5331]

Great cards! Where do you get the narrow peel-ofs?

[@LilCraftyNook]

Sharon Larson I know she gets some in her Love from Lizi kit.

[@susancrosier5420]

Like this way better

[@angelaorr3330]

I like to watch your card making you dont edit out any mistakes and are honest about loosing your mojo I think kit wise the Love from Lizie is still displayed by herself so there is no need for another unboxing. Re; other kits perhaps before you start to do a kit could you check round the other youtubers and if they have already un boxed theres then refer to them for that. I watch a lot of the kit making and find I have to edit it out the unboxing. Again I am a crafter I could not do videoing myself so this is my suggestion

[@CrazyPaperChick]

Hi Angela, thanks for the feedback on unboxings. I am on the Love from Lizi design team and one of the requirements is a separate unboxing, so that is why all the design team members post their own unboxing. The kits I do for fun are ones that I think I will start doing quick unboxings with 10 cards 1 kit.

[@KLThames]

Not a fan of a 15 minute unboxing video. But I do like a quick review of the kits, speeded up. I am really all about the card making bits. Perhaps when posting the video, you can just put a note for the time stamp of when the actual card making part starts?

[@tracygallo761]

For myself, I like the unboxing at the beginning of the video and then the card making. I am just throwing this out there but if people have seen the unboxing or don’t want to watch it, why can’t they just fast forward. You aren’t going to please everyone.

[@bellapopish7584]

No unboxing for me.

[@kerrykropaczewski8759]

I don’t need to see the unboxing
