WARNING about scrapbook store at Disney

[llggood]

Just go back. Yes there are some wonderful page kits etc. Be sure you can see what you are getting. I purchased a 200 sticker roll well it's basically four different rolls of the same 10 stickers. Then I purchased a packet of 100 park quotes well it's the same ten quotes over and over. So BEWARE. I have four kids so I can use the same product alot but if I had one or two kids I would be VERY angry.

Thank you for the heads up, I will be going to check it out in Feb. and I have heard that some of the items arent all that great. There is so much in my local stores, that Disney could really cash in on having Strictly Disney World Scrap items. I will keep your tip in mind, thank you!
D.D.

The scrapbook items for sale at WDW are not the same as my LSS, but I think WDW has a decent selection of sb items. I have bought several items over the last year or so & am pleased with what I found at WDW. Disney has at least expanded its selection of sb items, but we need to remember Disney is not just in the sb business .

Then I purchased a packet of 100 park quotes well it's the same ten quotes over and over.

I bought the same one and was so disappointed when I saw all the sheets were the same.

I bought the quote one also, passed them out at one a crop. Really way more than I would ever use.

I got both of the things you did. Luckily I have 4 vacations to scrap and another one coming up. But it is rather disappointing.

ETA:
What really disappointed me is their "packs" or whatever you call them. I don't really use paper as I do the CM style layouts but I loved all the stickers that were included in the paper packs. Thing is unless I wanted to spend $15 for a bunch of paper I wouldn't use, I couldn't get the stickers because most were not avail individually

I also scrap CM style and don't use background paper. But I did buy 3 Christmas kits and intend to make borders, photomats and triangles out of the sheets of paper to use for my Christmas Disney album. The colors are wonderful and I think this album will be quite different from my previous 2 Disney albums.

I am not thrilled with Disney scrapbook supplies either. They need to sell individual sheets of stickers and they also need to sell character punches. Their kits are expensive and I've returned every one I've bought prior to my trip a few weeks ago. I decided the Christmas kits can be adapted to my scrapbook style. As I said before, I scrap CM style, most of the time, but don't limit myself to CM products. I buy every Disney scrapbook product I can find. They are losing a lot of my money by their lack of interesting supplies, but I realize that they are not a scrapbook company. That is just a tiny aspect of their operation.

I have one of the boxes of 4 rolls of stickers- they're so cute, but how can you really use that many of the same ones?

I *really* wish WDW would set up a SB store where you could buy individual sheets of paper, and small quantities of stickers! I'm sure they would have a huge market!

I bought a couple of the kits but there are a lot of stickers I didnt use. Not to say I wont since we go atleast once a year I'll be scrapping plenty of trips. I really like the Disney stuff best at my LSS. They have awesome papers and stickers. Between the 3 stores I frequent I think I have almost all of the disney stuff ever made, lol.

You and me both, Deena!!

I use the paper in the kits... not many of the stickers. I did get the ride ones this last time and I'm excited to use the border stickers they had in there. They're pretty cool. One of my BIG complaints about their stickers are those UGLY UGLY UGLY borders!! Hello? Clear would be best, but I'd even deal with white. As it is, I have to cut them out. I even did a Pooh one that had all these flowers and I had to cut around each petal. NOT fun... LOL!! This ride one has ORANGE borders... orange?????? YIKES!!

Oh and Deena, I've had the priviledge of previewing the new EK line... OMGosh... I told my GF it's a good thing we go so often... We need to so I can use all this cool stuff... LOL!!!
