I had subbed to the SB kit, so yesterday when we got the coupon code, I subbed to the LP kit and used the discount to get free shipping and 15% off. I need to cancel both ASAP (I'm excited about this month but I'm skeptical about if this aesthetic is permanent) and I feel like a jerk for emailing like "pls cancel!!" every single month. Is that the trick?

Is that the trick? You can log in to your account and look at your subscriptions on their website. There is a cancel button when you view each of your subscriptions under your account so you shouldn't have to email to be able to do this. I've been subscribing for several months but I think I will cancel after they ship this month to take a break from the cost

I didn't feel that there was that much pink so I had to go back and check. 3 PL cards that are very obviously pink and 2 that had it with other colors but you could still feel the pinkness.Not sure how you don't have pink with a watermelon or ice cream cards. Now I can't see the reverse so there is the possibility of lots on the other sides. But the embellishments seem to be pretty balanced. I still think its a great kit! I'm very much looking forward to seeing in person. This was part of the problem with SC, it would look pretty good online then I would receive it in the mail and I would be thinking..."this is it?" I subbed for 6 -12 months and there were maybe 2 or 3 months that I had no problem working with...others were spent sitting at my desk pushing stuff around trying to make things work. I'm willing to give GB a chance.

As I suspected...a ton more pink in the actual kit. If she did different colorings that coordinated with the kit in the same orientation on the B side instead of making every card horizontal, it would be a no brainer (that's one thing I credit SC with doing most of the time), but there are so many pink cards!!!! I don't know why the PL kit isn't more like the SB kit. The SB main doesn't have much pink in it at all (which I'm pretty excited about). The SB, LP, and TN kits are all designed by different designers (I didn't look at the planner kit). That would explain why they look so different.

Is that the trick? I didn't realize the 15% off worked on the current kits! When I read the email, it said "15% off store items" which I assumed didn't mean kits. Now I'm bummed I didn't use it on the LP sub!

Did Gossamer Blue stop sending digital files to subscribers? I didn't receive them for May or June.

It's my first month subscribing to the Gossamer Blue kits and straight away I am in love with the fact that as an international subscriber I get a tracking number. One of the difficulties of Studio Calico / Ali Edwards orders is that more and more often I am waiting weeks for a package to arrive with absolutely no idea of where it is.

Has anyone here also gotten their June scrapbook main kit? I'm wondering if you have the green rubber "EXPLORE" banner we previously discussed in this thread. It's also on the subscription page for the main kit. My kit seems to be missing this piece.

I just wasn't sure if it was one of those situations where it was in the sneak but they didn't put it in the kit. I emailed them. I was so looking forward to this particular rubber piece!

I didn't get an email back but I got a shipping notification today.
I really appreciate Lori's quick actions, even if I could be getting a pile of poo in the mail. haha jk

Lori is super quick to remedy stuff, isn't she? SC would ask you for a picture of what you didn't receive and would then send you the exact same items you took a picture of without the missing item!

Once it clears customs in Canada, the tracking doesn't update until it is delivered. I haven't received mine yet either but I expect to get it this week.

So far I can't fault the customer service. My first month subscribing - my package had arrived in under two weeks (which is a huge deal given that I'm in Western Australia). There was a little something missing but that's already in the mail on it's way to me now.

Just got my kits today and they're awesome! Only problem is that I got hit with customs ☹ is this a normal for those who get the L.P. & SB kits in Canada? If so I might have to rethink this sub.

July sneaks starting this week from what their Lookbook says! Woohoo!

I heard on the fb group that the 26 is when they would start their sneaks. In all honesty I'm probably going to cancel at least one if not both of the kits. While they are nice I can't afford to hit with customs charges every time I get a kit. I pay the exchange as it is and when I add the customs I'm shelling out almost $100 for a scrapbook and L.P. kit and that's way too much and it's not worth it to me.

July sneaks starting this week from what their Lookbook says! Woohoo! Not digging the 11 day delay. Sneaks used to be up on the 15th and you basically saw the whole thing before the first from the DT for the last few months. Trying to get FOMO or something going. Not a fan of that.

The only sneak I've seen is the project life stamp set a week or so ago. It's unusual that the sneaks are so late this month. I want to see them as unless I absolutely can't live without them, I am going to cancel one or both (I temporarily added the SB kit last month) of my subs to keep costs down and because I am accumulating kits faster than I am using them since I've subbed to the LP one since March.
