round-up…which subs will you keep, begin, cancel, etc.

I have been getting the Freckled Fawn embellishment kit from the beginning. I'll hold out for Jan to see if I get anything with 2016. Then I'm out. I'm drowning in stuff.

I have canceled everything but Felicity Jane.

I always love her papers. But i am really thinking of going on a spending freeze for while. I have a ton of stuff and really only do PL now.

Decisions, decisions.

In the past I subbed to SC PL kit, SC Main kit, AE Story Stamp, and AE Story kit. Over time, I dropped all of them.

I have no intention of restarting any of them this next year because I have been in a major scrapping slump all this year. I am continuing PL next year, but my plan is to use the Everyday Edition core kit from BH and what's remaining of my small stash. I am REALLY considering a typewriter to type up my journaling on those cards, but I don't want to take up the space. We'll see. I'm just not very into scrapbooking right now, but I SO appreciate the final PL album so it is worth it to me to continue for now.

I border all my cards and photos with a white border, so I will need to buy white cardstock and adhesive next year and that's it unless I get inspired to start doing more again.

I've ditched my SB and PL subs from SC. In 2016 I'll definitely be sticking with my Story Kit (extended it til the end of the year) but am undecided about anything else. I've been trying out Citrus Twist SB which I quite like, although am not too keen on the stamps included. CT are starting to introduce exclusive papers from January, so I'll see what that kit looks like. However, at this stage I'm thinking I'll probably cancel and try to have 4-5 months just using up the SB kits I've accumulated. I want to scrap a whole lot of photos from the 90s and once I start working my way through those I'll have a better idea about how much product I actually need for that task.

I have a small scrap room and am running out of storage space so think I'll feel better once I use up some stuff!!

I'm keeping Ali's story kit and stamp as I've just extended them an additional 6 months. I'll re-evaluate afterward. I haven't used in of my kits but I have been crazy busy the past 6 months. I am also keeping my Scraptastic and Felicity Jane kits (scrapbook only) but I will probably cancel sometime mid 2016. I'm on a mission next year to scrap more and buy less.

I will continue my Hip Kit and while I've been looking at FJ for a long time I think I'll hold off for now and just admire from afar. I did sign up for One Little Word for 2016 and ordered the supplies for that.

I am continuing with my AE Story Kit sub, and will just be picking up the Story Stamps as I please when they interest me. Another Canadian here too, so with the falling dollar and a limited scrapping budget, that will be all for me.
I am also participating in OLW this year, so have ordered the cream and gold album... I am considering the Mini Kit with the chipboard dividers, because I LOVE black and white... but I don't really care for the stamp set. So $35 Cdn is a little much considering I only want the dividers. (I actually ordered last years kit instead, as I think that stamp set is more versatile)

I canceled at SC this summer.
I'm still subbing to Ali's Story Kit and stamp, and will continue that for at least 6 months.

I also sub to Scraptastic's PL kit. I'm keeping that for now, but I'm not sure how long.

Other than that, I'm putting myself on a freeze, I think. I have plenty to keep me scrapping for a looooooong time.

I will be finishing up a 6 month Citrus Twist sub soon. I've loved it, but the stuff has piled up! This happens to me every year---I'm a teacher, so my kits pile up until Christmas and summer breaks and then I do a year's worth of LOs in a few weeks! I'm tempted to try Scraptastic since you get a choice between two kits, but that's also work on my part to remember to log in and choose, etc.   I am a little hesitant about Citrus Twist starting to use exclusive papers in 2016 as well.  I like getting papers from new collections every month.  The "you can only get it here" hype just doesn't appeal to me.  

I do also do PL and I stay pretty caught up with that--I tend to run about a month behind, but I always use a core kit I just bought the Aqua kit at HL with a coupon the other day and wrapped it for me as a gift from DH. I love the idea of a PL kit sub, but for PL to work for me, I have to keep it very simple. I've been doing it since 2010 and have completed albums to show for every year, so clearly that approach works for me!

I cancelled my Freckled Fawn sub a month ago but I'm keeping my Felicity Jane sub.

The other three are on the chopping block. And those are Studio Calico, Ali Edwards and The Planner Society. I'm going to decide after I get the January kits.

I dropped all my Studio Calico subs except Ali's story kits and stamps. I'm staying with her through June.

I have Cocoa Daisy main scrapbook kit sub. I will keep that through the spring.

I am considering picking up Felicity Jane later in 2016. I haven't had time to scrap lately and that won't change for a few months. March/April is always the time I'm looking for something new and fresh and FJ is top of my list to try.

Overall, I'm feeling tired of the sub game. Delayed shipping, missing items, FOMO, every kit looking so same-y, etc. It's worn me down.

I just sent in my cancellation for AE Story Kit and Stamp. I stuck it out until the end of the year, but I just have too much piling up. I don't scrap as fast as the products come, lol. That's all I subscribe to.
