The samples are lovely, and the sentiments are great, especially for this challenging year.
However, I’ve been reorganizing my huge collection of stamps. Nothing kills the incentive to shop like realizing just how many stamps I’ve bought that are still waiting to be used.

It's a lovely set but not quite my cup of tea. However, I’ve been reorganizing my huge collection of stamps. Nothing kills the incentive to shop like realizing just how many stamps I’ve bought that are still waiting to be used. I know, right? I did that this fall and vowed not to buy more stamps until I've used all of my existing sets at least once - well, then Black Friday hit. But I am using my stamps way more than usual and making a point of using ones that haven't been used before, so that's good.

I "found" stamps I had forgotten about. I wish this would stop me but I'm sure I'll get the kit. I have really good intentions of using my existing stash.

I love that HOPE stamp/die with the sun's rays for the O. I can see myself lifting that idea with other supplies. And the clouds/birds on the wind card is really pretty, too. My problem is I think I want these sets, and then when they are in my hands they don't just automatically make these gorgeous projects by themselves...

I'm late to the party but have just ordered some new inks from the Stamp Market so there's nothing left in the budget for this month.

I didn't see this thread until now, but I saw the kit while it was still available, and I was definitely tempted. I like the sunshine and the fancy die, but my eye didn't make sense of the "hope" diecut at first and that part didn't really appeal. I also stopped and looked at the other stamps in this style from recent months and realized they're just not my cup of tea. They're pretty, but just not my style.
I thought that I could make a bunch of cool cards for donating with this set, but then I realized I could make a bunch of cool cards to donate with all the other supplies I already own too! I just don't have the time or energy lately.
btw I was looking for a particular Hero Arts die the other day and noticed that some of the fancy dies and stamps from past kits are available to buy individually (I think I was looking at scrapbook.com) and that actually made me feel a lot better about passing these kits by. Sometimes I feel the fomo... but now I can tell myself that I'm not missing out.

Has anyone else not received their kit yet? I ordered mine in December and it hasn't moved since being accepted in Richmond/Oakland on the 12th of Dec. I contacted CS who told me to contact the postoffice so I opened a missing package case with the USPS which was immediately closed. The post office wouldn't even check my tracking number when I went in to ask about it. I know shipping is a colossal mess right now but I just want to feel like I'm not the only one who is waiting. I don't really know how long is too long at the moment and I'm assuming HA will not be able to replace the kit if it's missing. I had a package show up from China that took less time than this has. I'm in Maryland so it's not got any international issues.

I'm in Maryland so it's not got any international issues. oh geez! I didn't order so I can't comment specifically but it sounds like you might've gotten caught up in the pre-Xmas mess. HA should (hopefully) hold back some stock to fulfill lost orders. It's usually 45 days to mark a package lost so you're probably right about there now. I would try opening another usps thing online if they'll let you, I wouldn't bother with the post office in person - they don't have much more they can do to help in my experience, and then go back to HA and request another kit or a refund.

I hope you get it!

Not a subscriber any more to Hero Arts kits, but just received my Spellbinders' December kit today in Canada. Things are moving R.E.A.L.L.Y. slow... I really wanted to see that HOPE die. After I saw myboysnme 's Donna challenge this month I was wishing even more that I had ordered the December My Hero kit.
