I'm not getting the point of the cut off numbers. You can achieve the same look using a regular number set and a post it note or that masking tape . Or am I missing something?

Id achieve better results by masking off. Then you can have more control with placements issues. I’m sure I’d end up hovering those numbers off the line, which would look ridiculous. But if I taped the line I’d ensure cutting off at the right spot. 🤷🏻♀️ I was pretty disappointed with the FYC sneaks. I like a few of the journal cards, but not enough to buy a kit.

I had the same reaction to the cut off numbers. Easy pass for me. I do like the kit and will probably pick that up. I miss Geralyn releasing her own digitals at IACB. I had hoped she’d at least come out with a Christmas release, although I guess there is still time.

I bought the kit. It's perfect for documenting the shitastic year 2021 has been for my family. December is kind of a struggle for PL anyway due to documenting in December Daily. I like the retrospective aspect of this kit.

If the stamp in the kit was either of the other stamp sets released I’d have caved. I like the kit cards a lot, but I don’t care for those stickers and the kit stamp is a pass for me. Kind of sad about it! 😆

I picked up the number set because I liked that the numbers are already “together,” i.e. dates from 1 through 31, not individual numbers, and I have very few numbers in my stamp stash (I also bought the large City numbers that were on sale at PP)

😭😭😭😭😭
“I’ve been mentally writing and rewriting this announcement for weeks and have opted for the short and sweet version. On December 15th, I’ll be closing Feed Your Craft. It’s been 7-1/2 years of amazing experiences, meeting and connecting with people all over the world, and having a place with your treasured memories. As you can imagine with this type of decision, there have been doubts, lists, tears, and repeated questioning if it’s the best thing, the smartest thing, the right thing, and on and on.
I cannot express how much the continued growth and support for my small business has meant over the years and thank you all from the bottom of my heart. As a new year arrives bringing new beginnings and adventures for us all, I wish you plenty of paper for making, battery life for picture taking, happiness, and good health.”
Close out sale is underway. 😪

I am heartbroken. I love her kits. The pickings are getting slim and moving towards none for decent kits.

I was bummed getting the email this morning. I really like her stuff. I missed the grab bags but picked up a couple of stamp sets
Last night I got an email from Not Just For Boys Kit Clubs that they are stopping their premium and deluxe theme kits. I was so disappointed! I love the deluxe theme kits. I know the past 2 years have been so challenging especially for small businesses. Of course I have plenty of supplies, but I love kits.

I was so sad to read that e-mail from Elise. Not every kit was my cup of tea, but she will be missed.

Yeah, I'm bummed too. I love her stuff. I don't have room to talk, I haven't bought (from anyone) in quite a while. I'm just not doing anything now. But I checked her releases out every month. Its a shame. I wish her well. She's a really nice person.

Am I missing something or are there no digitals available in her shop at all? I was bummed, I had been planning to at least pick up a few IACB digital items since I don’t make paper pages any more. ETA: I see now in the blog post she said she’s removed the digital products

I KNEW I should have just bought the stamp set I'd been eying. I had it open in a tab and told myself I'd pick it up when I got paid next.... that tab now gives a 404 error. It's gone. She had such great products, sad to see her go but I wish her the best in whatever's next!

I bet others did too, and someone’s likely to get one they already have. There will be stamps coming up for sale, I’m sure of it.

honeypea I missed out on the grab bags because I don't get her emails! I believe the set was called Merry And Magical.

It's disappointing to see another small store go, although given she wouldn't ship to Australia this last year I can't say I'm really affected by her decision.

I passed on the grab bags (very proud of myself BTW) and got all the Apollo stamp sets and some more puffy stickers. However, after looking at my stamp stash from FYC I have all the damn Apollo sets so I'll be selling them because I'm a dumbass who clearly needs to look at her stash before impulse buying stuff.

I think the grab bags went super quick. I logged on about 30 minutes into the sale, and they were all sold out. I did pick up some stamp sets I had been eyeing though. I’m really sad she’s closing up, although I mostly bought the IACB designs - at least I can still get those others places, although I’m not thrilled with buying them at SC. I like the kits solely designed by her. Maybe IACB will start updating her digital shop again now.
