    Ali- I SO enjoyed this video! Thank you! For as long as I have scrapbooked, it’s always fun to see what works for others as well as supplies and organization!
    One question- I recently purchased some of your DD digitals for creating transparencies- which I have never printed. Any recommendations for transparency sheets? Thanks so much!

      Hi! This is the transparency I have + use here at home: https://amzn.to/35JTw10. I'll add this topic to my list to do a video about papers for printing - it would be fun to do some comparisons.

    Great video! It’s funny how just looking at supplies can inspire you to make something!

    Quick question....I remember you mentioning a while back that there may be some new 9x12 albums coming. Is that coming soon?

      Yes! The current plan is that they will be released with the new Day In The Life collection on Jan 27th.

    I found myself thinking about your sewing machine too. What really basic Brother model (or other) would you purchase today if all it would be used for was memory keeping and maybe basic mending of clothes?

      The model I have is a XL2600i (not sure how long I've had it now). I would honestly go with something super simple if I was me buying again - like this one: https://amzn.to/3bGx8cv

    Hi Ali, thanks for the video..always good to get a refresher on supplies. Any ideas on what to do with a rubber stamp when it has lost its “cling ability.” Looking forward to more videos this year!

    Hi Ali, when printing photos, do you do this directly from iphoto, or do you send them to the printer from Photoshop? As you can tell, I've never printed photos at home, but would like to try.

      Hi - I do both. Sometimes I print from inside Photos + other times I print from Photoshop. Just depends on what I'm printing (usually I'd print from Photoshop when I'm adding text).

    great video as always. longtime scrapper and follower of yours. That said, I am interested in how you are using the Apple photos. I am a longtime user of Apple and loved the IPHOTOS but do not like the PHOTOs app. It just doesn't answer the need the same. I can't go in and take a class on it due to covid. But since you mentioned it in your video, I thought I would ask. Thank you again You keep me motivated. My OLW is progress

    The Epson XP15000 has been out of stock for several months now! I have been stalking it on Amazon and Epson's site. LOL! I can't wait until I can get my hands on one. I think it's a pandemic-related shortage. Right now, I'm still using a hand-me-down Workforce 1100 from my mom, which can do 13 x 19, but not photos. It's also an ink hog! But it still prints out beautiful hybrid stuff, so that makes me happy.

    Thanks for sharing your tool box!

    Thanks for chatting about the photo app again. I was wondering what you ended up deciding to do. I'm using Photos right now but it feels like it's struggling sometimes because I have so many photos and videos on it. Also, where did you get the giant roll of redline tape from? I've been searching for a roll that will last! Thanks.

    Thank you so much for this video, the information, and even breaking up and labeling each section on youtube!!! As a mom of a toddler, time is scarce, so it's so helpful to be able to get info fast!
