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 would be happy to buy the upper case Apollos from you, the outline set and the fillers. |

I’d buy the Apollo mini lower set if you duplicates.

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  Boo. I too was hoping to pick up digitals Based on her post, I am hoping once all of the physical inventory is gone she might put the digitals up again. I really wanted the Christmas one but figured it was a digital so no hurry :/ |

I really wanted the Christmas one but figured it was a digital so no hurry :/ It is too bad that she didn't give warning that the digitals were going away. The email/post made it sound like closing the store was a very hard decision. It is surprising that it is so sudden. |

I was out all day-to-day so just saw the announcement. I'm sad she's closing. Ive placed many many orders over the years and really liked buying from a smaller company. Not a good sign for scrapbook companies at all. I wonder if this means IACB is stopping too.
I second hoping that Elise brings back her digitals before she closes. A past digital sale would be great

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 wonder if cutting all International customers played a role here. I used to buy nearly every month from FYC, despite the expensive shipping and long wait times. |

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. I am (not so) secretly hoping that IACB will start designing for Paper Person. Kelly did mention when it launched that PP would have stamps and kits from multiple designers.  |

I got one of each of the card grab bags. I passed on the stamp ones because I’ve bought all of the ones I wanted along the way.
Really sad the shop is closing.

I’ve quit buying from PP because of their constant QC issues and customer service problems. Although, I don’t really know what the alternative would be. |

Who knows, but she just released a Christmas bundle after adding nothing to her shop for ages. I wasn’t sure if she was trying to avoid competing with the designs she was doing for other people, especially since her designs are very much the same whether she’s doing them for her own shop or FYC. Or she might have just been languishing like the rest of us, especially since she usually does so much travel and has been grounded so long. |

Well I had commented on her original insta post asking about digitals possibly being available after physical product sold out and she replied that they would not be selling the digitals in the store anymore . I really really wanted the Christmas digitals for this year… do you think there is a chance later that IACB might sell them. Ugh, I’d pay full price + for the digital or the physical kit at this point… |

Ugh, I’d pay full price + for the digital or the physical kit at this point… you could try reaching out to Geralyn directly. She might not be able to sell them to you depending on her agreement with FYC, but at least then you’ll know. It’s frustrating that the digital were taken down with no warning. |

My final ordered arrived.
I’ve been feeling foolish for ordering the stamp grab bag, because I’ve ordered every stamp I’ve even halfway wanted for the last year +, so figured I’d be getting ones I already had, or ones I never wanted. But I actually got three I’ve never seen before, so they must predate my return to avid scrapping/FYC stalking. My first foray into FYC was the Page Turner kit. Anyway, the grab bag stamps were an adventure themed one, a family one (from IACB), and a everyday/daily schedule kind of one. I’m pleased!
The embellishment grab bag consisted of three alphas from recentish kits, and a mix of diecuts.
It’s the end of an era!

I'm kicking myself for not getting the ticket stub set when it was available. I wish she gave more notice before pulling things down |

My order is arriving Friday. Managed to get all the grab bag options and the stamps I was wanting cannot wait to see what the stuff is.
I too am beyond sad. I sub to KP (well I used to), but ordered a lot from FYC because I love Geralyn Sy, and the owner of FYC has the best customer service.

Sad to see them close but Elise left a sour taste in my mouth a few times and she chose to cut off shipping to my country so, shrug. Very happy to see some new content in the IACB shop and I can now purchase some of the FYC x IACB digitals and all the funds go directly to Geralyn. |

Of course that ticket set I missed out on isn't offered lol. Oh well. I'm glad that she has other digitals available, I do wish she offered physical product but I understand how much more of a pain in the ass that would be.

I wonder if Geralyn designed that one - I’d love to get it too! I was so impressed with her bc I had emailed about the digitals being available after the FYC announcement and she replied personally to me then. I got a follow up email a day or 2 ago about them being in her shop. Super impressed with her taking the time to reach out to me personally. And yes, I went right in and bought the items I had wanted! I love the quality of the physical stamps that FYC was selling. |

I think she would do so well if she expanded into physical product - there is a Geralyn sized gap in the market for sure! |
