I wasn't even going to look! But you peas got the better of me. I ended up with: Toucan Paradise Bundle. It seems kind of whimsical to me. Tropical Vibes Bundle. I just like it and it is my first turnabout stamp. DO I NEED THE JIG THING? I did not plan it that way, but it is a bonus they go together. They do go together nicely! You need a jig but you can make one. Concord & 9th initially released turnabout stamps without jigs - and without placements guides - so while their jig is nice to have, it’s not needed if you make your own. Theirs is plastic, but before it was offered, instructions were to use a 6x6 piece of cardboard with lines drawn from corner to corner, crossing in the center to make an X. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are written in each corner to keep track of your turns. Here’s a video showing it here just after 2:45 if you’d rather not buy one: youtu.be/zLg65DWL6aE |

It was a great sale and I only have a few turnabouts from concord and 9th. I placed 2 orders because I was worried about stuff selling out. I got:
1. The purse builder bundle
2. The weekender purse bundle
3. All the letters and dies bundle
4. The tall skinny letters & dies bundles
5. The double cut alphabet & numbers
6. All the thanks bundle
7. Botanical bundle
8. The brights eyes bundle to go with my purses
9. Fresh cut florals bundle
I almost bought the fresh cut florals at only 10% off a week ago
Before I knew about the sale as I have very few die cut flowers. But I waited and was now able to get it 60% off. So psyched.

I checked out the shipping policies and it seemed like $15-25US to Canada for a few dies and stamps was crazy. I picked the items I was interested in and sure enough shipping was crazy. Im out. I hope everyone enjoys their new pretties! Ugh, that's a bummer! It really sucks that international shipping is so expensive when Canada is *right there* on the same continent! They charged me $6 for a couple of dies (within the US) and it looked like it was being calculated by weight. |

FurryP - you can make your own jig - I think it's on YouTube, but I followed Alice Boll's instruction using a piece of cardstock. I was following the Insta updates on this sale, and yesterday was a busy day & I totally forgot. Which I am kinda glad I did. I just looked and I ended up ordering 2 things which I would've missed had I not taken my time and looked. Double cut die alpha bundle - I like the idea of getting the outlines Little Letters stamp set - I use small alpha stamps in my storyline chapters book and I like that they give multiple vowels so you can actually spell out a word on the block once. Not bad and shipping wasn't either. I thought about picking up some more inks/papers, but I can't think that far on it. I also really like the turnabouts, I just have the 1 confetti one and while I like some others, didn't think I really need any more. Thanks for the reminder peas!

2 of the sets i wanted is sold out already. The leaf and just because bundle is gone☹ Oh.  Do you like the Thankful Leaves turnabout? When checking if I already had a set that I wanted to buy, I found two Thankful Leaves turnabouts. Ugh, I hate when I do that. I’d be glad to pop one in the mail to you as a condolence prize. It’s not like I can use both at the same time with both hands to make two cards.  This is a very generous offer. Can I pay something for it or the shipping? Have you played with this set yet? I tried to send you a PM but it tells me there is no user with cardboxer |

I caved and got the In Bloom bundle. I don’t have any large, open flower stamps so getting stamps, dies and stencils for under $23 was impossible to pass up.

Did you tap or click where it says CardBoxer, right over “full member?” I’m here, really. 😀 If you did and that doesn’t work, the only thing I can think of is that it looks like my screen name and user name are different, not that I know what that means or remember doing it. I made an account long before I was active. Can you try again since if there’s an issue it would be good to know? And I’ll message you if it doesn’t work. |

Oh dear - shouldn't have opened this thread and gone to the C&9th site to look  I ended up with the banner builder stamps, painted peony and the holiday cheer tags bundle. Just hope it doesn't take as long to get here as my order from The Greetery which is still swimming here. |

I wanted this one so bad too and now I’m kind of kicking myself for not getting it. It’s so beautiful. I just didn’t see me using it as I mostly scrapbook. I still kind of want it though and can think of ways I would use it. |

Well that’s interesting and unusual,  thanks. I saw my user name was different, but don’t know why/how that happened. Using an iPad there’s no hovering. If I tap on a user name, including my own, it goes to the member’s page. |

And used the upper case brush stoke letters already on an envelope that contained a card for a neighbor. I get annoyed with letters, but these are so forgiving with the blocks behind them you can embrace the wonkiness. C&9th mistakenly included a set I didn’t order and told me to keep it after I emailed them to offer to send it back. They apologized for the inconvenience! A free stamp set an inconvenience, haha. |

That is good karma CardBoxer. You generously offered a stamp set to me and the universe gives back. I love when that happens. I got my order yesterday and some of the flower stamps are sooo big. Im very happy with it thank you joblackford for inspiring me to get them. |

Woah, that's great! I had good experience with their customer service the one time I thought I had an issue. Which "inconvenience" did you get, lol? The inconvenient stamp set was {drum roll} lower case Bold & Brushy - which I almost bought, but going well over $50 made me put it back, since I really have enough, no, not enough, I have plenty and then some and some more. I love the upper case - will definitely go into my top ten. Or five. So thank you for that enablement. <—- probably not a word |

No shipping notice for me yet. And it'll probably take 6-8 weeks to get here. My Greetery order shipped from Ohio on 4 May, left the USA via Chicago on 17 May and just passed through Narita airport on 17 June  |

Gosh, I need to send something to New Zealand and the guesstimate was two weeks. Are the delays to you because of the shipping choice or is it a customs issue or I hope you get your C&9th package quicker. |
