Your Creative Studio Subscription Unboxing - December 2023 |

[@dianeshaw8395]

I agree with you totally. I have not missed this box since I ended my subscription a year ago. I have seen maybe two boxes that I thought were worthy of taking up more space in my craft room. I watch your channel for all of your content and I appreciate you sharing your ideas and creativity.

I am all about flowers and love them but during winter i agree it should be winter themed

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. ♥️

Honestly - for my taste that's way too pink and flowery. Thank you for the video! 🙂

Hi… while I think it was a nicely curated box for the most part focusing on pastel colors and music notes, I agree that it doesn’t entice me to continue the subscription into 2024… I’m actually ready for a break from it… ready to be free from the guilt that the boxes accumulate waiting to be used and for me… after 2 years of almost exclusively doing collage, I’m really missing using paint & mixed media… I usually use stamped images cut out with my ScanNCut and create Art Journal layouts… I love quirky flowers and I so enjoyed doing a 8x8 Dylusions journal in 2019? just using the various flower stamps and dies that I have and obviously I’ve accumulated even more floral images for volume 2 LOL I will miss getting this subscription though and who knows what will happen next year - probably depends on if I fall in love with January’s box. Thanks for sharing the unboxing… Merry Christmas and all the best to you and yours in the coming year! 🙂🎄🎉

Yes id love to see what you make with the kits as i still have not bought and would like ideas before i start😮

[@HearttoHomeCraftswithJoanne]

Thank you! I definitely need to prioritize creating with them in the New Year. ♥️

unboxed mine yesterday- yes more winter theme would have been good- I love all the music paper and the little envelopes. there is a YT video on how to use that clipper thing and it does work, but not sure when I would use it. I love YCS but this was my last box and not renewing because I have SO many and just like you next year I want to got through them and make things with what I have. tfs

[@HearttoHomeCraftswithJoanne]

I’m right there with you 100%. I’ll definitely take a look at the video first the clipper thing. I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. ♥️

I would have given the kit a thumbs down but I didn’t want to give your video one. I agree with you totally. Good decision to pause.

[@HearttoHomeCraftswithJoanne]

I truly appreciate that! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. ♥️

Butterfly Blessings Studio figured out the secret to the paper clipper - clever gal. :) Yeah, the box is "meh." Some pretty elements, great for using with other papers and projects, but nothing to sink your teeth into. I'm in North Central PA and it's a dark and stormy day on this moody Monday.

So you’ve used those stamps with an acrylic block? I found that they didn’t work no matter how I tried. I was excited to see what you got at first but then it all just looked like items that you’ve gotten from them in the past. I think it’s a good idea that you take a break from that subscription box. Very underwhelming. You were correct, a winter theme would have been fantastic. But, it was not.🥲

[@kathybost1879]

never got them to work on a block either. I guess you could put a bit of tape runner on but then you would have to clean that off. I also try different inks to see which stamps well.

[@HearttoHomeCraftswithJoanne]

I usually just press the stamps down like I do in the video. I’ve had them stick once I remove the plastic and used a little wet sponge. Thank you so much for your thoughts on the box! “Underwhelming” accurately describes this box. ♥️♥️
