Kit Recommendations?

I don’t sub to any of those but I do buy citrus twist kits every few months.

I absolutely love them and Trina has bent over backwards on a number of occasions to help me out and solve any issues.

What makes them such a winner for me is the mix of embellishments. I love their ephemera packs especially.

So I’d wholeheartedly recommend CT.

I've just subbed to Citrus Twist for 3 months.  Do you pay customs charges into the UK?  

I currently sub to the Cocoa Daisy SB kit and previously subbed to both Hip Kit and Citrus Twist kits. I stopped subbing to CT when it seemed to me the kits were becoming less well coordinated - but I'm not sure what they currently contain.

Hip Kit was good but became a bit 'samey' in terms of colour schemes and embellishment contents each month - partly I think because so many of the collections now are very similar. The HP digital content is usually good though.

CD is now all exclusives in the main kits if that's something that appeals to you, and I think there is a good range of embellishments in the kit. I've been mostly happy with the kits over the last year. The digital content is not generally as useful as HK was but it's ok.
There has been a change to the CD system now and it's all sub based, which means it's difficult just to pick up a few extras each month.

Are most of these kits represent current trend? I like vintage styles.

I agree. They're great "get 'er done" kits and I love them. They're staples, IMO.

I have subscribed to all 3. Here's my thoughts. Hip kit club feels samey to me, and also is INUNDATED with pink. I can't do a kit that's mostly pink every month, and i'm limited to one, so i ditched it. One good thing about HKC is the embellishments/paper, imo are well balanced. Also there's a variety of add ons, if you like adding on, and members get a discount on add ons! also the owner is really good to work with.

CTK- Trina is so incredibly above and beyond. I'm not currently subbed, but i always come back after a few months. the reason i unsubbed is that the colors tend to be lighter than i like to work with. And it seems like all the dt work is pastel on white background which gets a little boring. Sometimes i like pastels, just not ALL the time. And i really wanted to try Cocoa daisy. i'll probably be back to CTK though. i wish i could sub to both

Cocoa Daisy- is my current sub. I'm LOVING IT. I'm so happy when working with my kits, its incredible. they are mostly exclusives and are AMAZING. matching without being too matchy matchy, gorgeous eye for detail. I've heard of CS problems, but the issues i've had, the owner fixed promptly and kindly, so i've had nothing but good experience from them. The biggest downside is you pretty much HAVE to sub to get a kit, which bothers me. But i think its worth it.

I subscribe to all 3.

Hip Kit Club - everything is always very well coordinated. They don't include cardstock. I usually like the products in this one. I feel like this is the one with the least amount of product, but I haven't really counted it, so I may be wrong on this. I think the products are really usable and I like the color combinations. It might be a little too consistent.

Citrus Twist - this is my least favorite because the products just seem random- not coordinated at all. I don't even know what is going on with that- it doesn't feel like a kit. It does include a lot of product and they throw in a few offbeat things like doilies, book pages, etc. that are fun. They also have neat acrylic pieces sometimes. They include two pieces of cardstock, either white or cream, depending on the patterned papers. If you like lots of eclectic product, this one might be for you, though. They use a lot of Pinkfresh products, which I do not like at all- I'm more of an American Craft girl. They do have some exclusive paper.

Cocoa Daisy used to be my favorite but they've recently switched to all exclusives, and I don't like that as well. This has a lot of very well coordinated product. I like the selection of embellishments- lots of neat stuff. It includes 3 sheets of cardstock- usually a white and two other colors. It is neat to get colored cardstock.

Yes! I had a mental block and couldn't remember what it was called! I haven't been gettng kits since I stopped scrapping a few years ago and I just resubbed. Kits ship next week and I can not wait!!
