The DCWV winter kit from the AD earlier in the year is now available on its own via QVC mobile AND at the TSV price - ordered mine :D!! Naughty QVC - wasn't supposed to be available separately. Good for me though!

What's the item number Mermaid? They had the green Summer version at the outlet store the other day but most of the stuff was missing from it, I can't remember what the Winter one was like...was it red?

this has happened with other AD's on QVC though; I think it's a deliberate 'mistake'!

Since there is no photograph on the QVC mobile I don't know what is in the kit, but I have just had this e-mail from Trimcraft http://www.trimcraft.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=4862 giving details of lots of lovely new DCWV Christmas stuff.
I nearly bought the Rose Tinted Christmas stack at The Paper Mill Shop last week, and remembered just in time that I had the TSV on auto delivery, so my fingers are crossed that it's in there.

Mine is now showing as in process on my account - the other 2 were sent on the 10th of the month, so I assume this will be the same. I hope I like it!!:D

Woohoo! My DCWV winter kit has just arrived :D. for all those who were wondering it DID come with the mini album (bonus as I never bought the spring kit ;)) BUT.....I wouldn't get too excited about the freebie. You don't get much for nothing :rolleyes:. Kit looks fab though, thorough look definitely required.
Mine too Prudence. I hope there's lots of pink in it. :)

Yay! Can't wait for mine to arrive. I only used my first piece of paper from the spring kit last week and the summer kit hasn't been used at all yet. :eek:

I've got mine too! The glitter papers are gorgeous!
I really wish there was some Autumn stuff though as I want to use the papers to make a calendar. I guess I will have to look elsewhere for those.

I got the calendar stack from QVC Lynne and there's some great Autumn in there.

Thanks ROC. I got the calendar from the Paper Mill as I thought it would be a good way to use some of the seasonal papers. All I am missing though is Autumn. Hopefully I will find something suitable.

Its a nice kit...not sure abut some of the brown and pink paper but all in all I am pleased with it

I just think pumpkins and leaves usually for Autumn! I'll let you know if I see any leafy papers around.

I don't have mine yet and it's not showing as processing or sent :(. If anyone is willing to let me borrow theirs I won't mind ;) lol.
Mine is showing as shipped yesterday. Maybe it'll arrive tomorrow...

I gave the original TSV a miss as I have so much stuff in pastel pinks already and I didn't think I would use the diddy cards (I even managed to resist one I saw in the Birchwood outlet). I was one of the ones who ordered the winter kit after the tip off from Mermaid (Big thanks, by the way) and it arrived yesterday. It was lovely to open it and examine all the goodies after a particularly long day (15 hours!) at work. I'm very pleased with it. The paper stack is amazing. Now I just have to accelerate my Christmas cardmaking. My target is around 150 for my own use this year plus another 100 to sell for charity. The only trouble is I've only made around 20 so far...
Anyway, I'm pretty sure you peeps who are still waiting will love it when it turns up.

Mine arrived yesterday as well (I didn't order the AD) - it is lovely - it's a good job there are no more as OH commented about having to get another house (again) - the box is very big!:D
Have to say I'm somewhat peeved that the ones who ordered it individually are shipped prior to the auto-deliveries.
Spendsloads and ROC - is there lots of pink in it? :D

There's certainly some pink Anne, but I don't remember it being a particularly dominant colour. Of the glittered papers, there are some gorgeous purple and white papers with silver glitter.
I will try and remember to get a photo when I get in tonight and post on here for those of you who are still waiting on delivery.

Well I've had a good look now and the papers are gorgeous, some very intense cardstock colours too :) I spotted a fair amount of pink ;) I think these are certainly my favourite papers out of the three sets, and not all are obviously Christmassy.
The embellishments are good too, but there seem to be a few less than in the other two kits - no chipboard alphabet in this one and only one pack of flowers. The freebie album certainly isn't anything to write home about :rolleyes: as others have already said :D

Hello and welcome to CT timberhill. Havent used from the spring one :o
but have made a few cards from the summer one which I think is much better than the spring one
My AD was shipped on the 9th :D
Dont think its fair that they say they wont be available to purchase seperately and then they are :(
Forgot about the freebie album

thing is BB that QVC dont expect people to pass on the numbers of the AD and dont expect anyone to order them on mobile thats why they say it

As promised, here is a photo of the kit (less the drawers). Apologies for not unpacking it fully, but it was another long day at work yesterday and I didn't get home till nearly 11.

Thanks for the piccie Spendsloads. Rub it in why don't you? (joke :p )
The two papers/cardstock on the far right look fabulous. I know the first thing that I will do is to get all the pink stuff out and put it together. :o If mine doesn't arrive today I will probably start swearing.
