That March kit looks really good! I am actually pondering a sub, I wish I could do it now and start with March rather then Feb. Will check it out tomorrow morning for sure, really love the colors!

I’m pretty excited for the TN kit — I like that the month page doesn’t say what month so I can print them out for future months! The little icon stamps will look nice in white space on pictures.
Also like some of the stamps she’s releasing. I really like that dumb planner stamp with FriYay and Taco Tuesday for some reason, but I know I would never use them after I got them ha. But they are really cute.

Tina, gurl, you're killin' me. Couldn't you have released that silly days of the week stamp with SC? Ugh. $15 international shipping, I can't just pick up the occasional LLP stamp set anymore. Has Kelly's paper + print quality changed recently? I remember there was talk about the cards/paper products having some printing issues? Rubbing off or something? I believe scrapaddict702 was part of the convo (apologies if you weren't).

I really enjoy that her style is different than mine and more playful, it just puts a smile on my face. Also I am such a sucker for those days of the week stickers on Instagram Stories that I requested she design this set in particular. Man, I love a good pun

Can we also request more releases in partnership with Jamaica? 🤓

I believe scrapaddict702 was part of the convo (apologies if you weren't). I'm not the one to ask about that as I don't subscribe. The most recent kits that I have are from the summer last year (picked up during a sale) and I haven't had a chance to use them, but I was part of the conversation (the ink coming up when you touch it with anything sticky does bother me and her cards aren't the only ones with that issue). I'm getting better with the FOMO thing, hahahahaha.

FOMO gone to haunt another scrapper's stash? (but hey, good for you!) I have not noticed any issues past or present, but maybe I'm just KP's favorite? Teacher's pet!

I don't think I was the original person who commented on the ink coming off, but I can confirm that the ink did pull off for me, when I stuck some washi on a card, and then tried to move it elsewhere... otherwise the cards are good quality: thick with vibrant colors.

Oh yes, that does happen. I was thinking more of a smearing type issue, which I've not had. The issue is most notable when you do it on a dark color, but the paper itself doesn't peel up or anything.

I have been using her Christmas Kit Cards lately in my PL (since they aren't really overtly holiday themed) and I have to say the cards might be my favorite thing I have bought for scrapbooking, ever. They are just so beautiful.

I’m willing to live with the lifting ink because her card colors are so saturated. I just know there are no do-overs with her cards. Once it’s stuck it stays.

Looks like the March TN kits are already on preorder. Kelly must have gotten a crazy number of new subs. You don’t get the kits until May, but at least they’re available.

That went lightning fast! Good for her though. I'm really happy to see KP thrive as an indie business in a struggling industry where there's little space to survive beyond the American Crafts umbrella.

Well, I just subbed for 6 months. I figured I like the color of her summer and spring kits, so I am hoping that this is a good fit! I just love March’s kit, the stamp and the colors are perfect. I also got the small “enjoying” stamp e

I also got the small “enjoying” stamp e @skellinton What was the small enjoying stamp? Bizarrely, which I found hard to believe - I don't have a large outline number stamp in my stash, so I ended up getting the main kit as well as my TN sub!

Very smart that KP's release is before SC's! With my additional main kit purchase, I think my scrappy budget is done for the month! :-)

Thanks for sharing @skellinton and I am so happy that it doesn't say "Best Ever" or "The Best" !!! Low key enjoying is more my way of expression..... pancakes my train conductor on a Wednesday always says "happy humpday" and I cringe. I think its my Britishness. It's not a phrase I ever heard in the UK, not even when I worked in the city of London for 10 years.....so when I hear it, that's not where my mind goes to (blush) so even though, that stamp is cute. I just can't. I'm officially a prude. In fact when he says that, I consider, that he is momentarily ruining my day. That also makes me a Grinch.

Exactly, I love the enjoying stamp and know I will get a lot of use out of it. I have never used any of the “best day ever” things. Seems so silly to me. I hate hump day too, not British or prude, just think it is dumb. I don’t like Fri-yay either. I also don’t say “Ack” when it is Monday. Can’t wait to use the heck out of my enjoying stamp set though!

We said hump day a lot when I was a kid (among friends) so I have good connotations. Same with FriYay. It bothers me a little how they both became super mainstream — not that people weren’t saying it already but you hear it publicly so much that it is kind of annoying sometimes. But I figure the phase shall pass. And I like the whale association too ha

I really like the colors in both of the kits this month. The only thing is that I already have a very similar number stamp from last year's January kit, and I actually used every week of 2017. I wish the stamp set this month that was something that wasn't repeated.
I think the LLP week stamp set is super cute, I just think it would be one of those stamps I'd only get so many uses out of. I totally would've bought stickers with the same designs.
I like the cards in the spring kit a lot, I might wait to see if that kit goes on sale.
The LLP kit with the square 4x4s from last month's release is gorgeous and I'm surprised that one hasn't sold out yet. I've used that kit in my Project Life already and love it.
