I got 7 of the 12 ink pads, adding an 8th put me in the $10 shipping range... boo! KP was right, though, the colors are unique. I spent the morning swatching my inks and comparing, and hers are definitely different, at least on the computer screen. Hope they work well!!!

Maybe I should have just gotten the whole bundle to save on the shipping cost, lol. I wonder if it goes by number of items as a way to estimate shipping. My 8 items would be more than you 3 items, if the ink bundle is only counted as 1 item.

They're taking preorders for a restock of the Ramadan kit. It should be available in the middle of April.

I’m in Northern California and shipping was $10 for me (I got all the ink pads and some of the pinkfresh stuff.

Did I forget that the USA changed to daylight saving at the start of the month vs end of the month for Europe? Yep. Did I head over to Paper Person an hour late? Yep. Did I then realise the error of my ways when I noticed Breaking News was sold out? Yep. Hoping she restocks the shop with that stamp set before the April launch. Happened with the February stamp sets (I'm guessing the stock she held back for US orders gone wrong/lost) so fingers crossed I can place an order in mid-April now. Ugh. So annoyed with myself.

Ugh. So annoyed with myself. Booty, you legit know more about the US than most people who live here, don't be so hard on yourself. That seems like a set she would re-stock, so we'll keep an eye out for you!

I'll be checking daily once we get closer to the April release. 🤞 *plays Baby, Come Back by The Equals*

I just got an email telling me that my order is on its way. The label was just created but if the orders are picked up/dropped off within the next couple of days then it should be here by the end of next week. I can't wait to play with the inks and see how they are!

My status is still showing "unfulfilled". /sigh I have big plans to open all the inks and try them out and then put everything away until the mood strikes, damn it! ^.^
Seriously, I have a Quarantine album and stuff to use, but have yet to actually put anything together... send help.

My ink pads are here!! The tones really do fill a void in my collection of Catherine Pooler, Stampin Up, and CTMH pads. I am happy with my purchase. The raised felt pads do stamp a solid alpha well. Although, Coast and Mint Julep are a little more splotchy than the rest, but nothing horrible.

Mine are waiting for me at my house and I can't wait to try them out! I will take a picture when I test them and share with you all.

Oh I'm a bit grumpy now. I haven't even gotten a shipping notification yet and I'm about an hour south of her. I want to play with my inks!

I got my shipping notice today.
I wonder if she does mail out nonsubbers first because they don't have the bundle shipping option.

I always get my notification on the very last possible day. I get it, you said that’s when it will ship by and do that’s the day the last ones are printed ( hopefully shipped ) But, Like, shuffle it around some once in awhile. Why am I always LAST. People are already playing with their stuff and mine hasn’t even had the label printed yet. But additional stuff or not hasn’t changed buying instantly or next day also doesn’t seem to change.

I admit it's not my best stamping job, I didn't judge my spacing well! I wanted to use a stamp that had some fine details in it to show how the ink behaves. I'm happy so far. I hadn't stored the pads upside down as Kelly suggests for these, but they're upside down now so I'll test again to see if it makes a difference.

Also - Goldenrod didn't leave empty spaces, I just noticed some areas look faded.... that's my own user error, not the ink. The stamp should have been pressed down more firmly.

Thanks for posting kiera ! You're welcome! I did the best I could with the poor lighting in my room, but I wanted to show the Peas how it works without a full on studio set up

Thanks, kiera! The three darker colours do indeed look sharper and more consistent. Guacamole's growing on me.

You're welcome! I really like Guacamole a lot. I might go back for Forest and Brown Bear before the sale ends... maybe Pumpkin Spice. Damn it I want them all!
