I subscribed for a year and love the product so much. I read Jeana’s email and was sad. It’s always sad to see a scrapbook company close their doors.
I know we have a few fj fans here.

Not familiar with their products but I know the brand because I've read about them here. Very sad, indeed.

That’s too bad. She had very high quality and unique products. I subscribed for awhile, but stopped when my scrapping slowed down as I started making cards more than layouts.

That's such a shame! I didn't have any of their products - I looked several times but if I recall correctly the shipping to Canada was very high - but I'm still sad to hear the news.

That's a shame, I really like their stuff. I also just found out (where have I been?) that Paper Smooches (dies & stamps) had also closed. Sad to lose these great scrapbook companies.

There's a closeout sale right now. I put a few things in to check shipping. It was $7 for $21 of product. I added a TN album. Shipping went up to $21. :/

Shipping went up to $21. :/ I didn't find many things were on sale, most seemed to be full price. I put 2 paper collections in my cart and shipping was $7.51 for 12 sheets of paper. |

I bought one monthly collection, a set of tags and two alphabets. Shipping was $14. Not sure why, since I have a FJ stash, but I wanted one more collection.

I had $150 in my cart, and shipping was only $10.51. I wonder why it's so outrageous for some people.

I was never able to get shipping under 15.00 despite the fact I was only buying flat items that would fit in the smallest priority mail box (never any paper, just embellishments) so I am not even bothering to look.
Actually I bet the things I was trying to order would have fit in a regular envelope with two or three stamps on it.
Obviously I do not expect a store to use a regular envelope but that is honestly how small the things I wanted to buy where.
Her shipping calculator was clearly insane

Is there a way to shop by product type vs. collection? I don't want to click on every collection to find stamps or dies or stencils. I can search by entering "stamps" in the search but it seems strange that you can't just click on "stamps" from a drop down menu.
It also doesn't say what is excluded from the sale either which is very frustrating. I guess I don't need anything from this website that badly.
ETA: as for shipping, I was at $6-ish for shipping but maybe because I only had a stamp & die set and some stencils in my cart?

I put one stamp set and a travelers notebook album in my cart and shipping was $24 - which was more than the items cost. Hard pass, thanks.

Here's how to shop everything: felicityjane.com/collections/allI put stuff in my cart (12 items). The discount showed up in the cart for all but two items. Something was already pretty marked down and the other thing was new. Total of like 40 something. Shipping was $13. I went ahead and got everything I wanted because the quality is phenomenal, the designs are very basic, and I freaking love those chipboard stars. I got two colors. I've used almost all of the ones I already had and the other color I picked up will fit all Fall scrapbooking. It should have only cost $8.50 to ship as this will all fit into a priority mail envelope no problem. |

Omg, thanks for that link! This probably sounds ridiculous, but if the FJ site was easier to navigate, I probably would have bought even more over the years!

I occasionally would purchase and love the unique embellishments. I received an e-mail about the sale and didn't
find much marked down.

It also doesn't say what is excluded from the sale either which is very frustrating. As far as I can tell it's the Christmas collection that was just released, and the last of the monthly kits, Kolly. Everything else I noticed had some sort of discount. I bought stuff despite the insane shipping cost. I talked myself out of buying anything in her last sale and I love her products and there were several things I still really wanted. I had issues checking out with my order as the cart suddenly decided it would not ship to my address. This is despite the fact I'd been able to calculate shipping several times already yesterday while I played the add to cart/remove from cart game, and all my previous orders have been shipped to the same address. I emailed and had a response back from Jeana in about half an hour, and she then several further emails over the next hour or so trying to troubleshoot my order before finally keying it in on the back end and sending me a link to pay. I didn't buy often, but I've always had good service when I've needed to reach out, and I will miss their products. |

I picked up the stamp from an older kit that was discounted to $11-something so at least some of them were marked down. |

I found a lot of things were listed at full price, but the discount showed up later in the process. I didn’t buy anything in the end, as International shipping was more than the product and even when I took most things out of my cart, it was still around $30 for $25 worth of product, so not worth it for me. |

I did and the stamps I chose were not discounted but other stamps were. I'm guessing the ones I chose were newish. Other stuff I chose was discounted. Shipping still hurts so I'm probably going to pass unless the things I want go 50-70% off. |

I just looked at their site this morning. They changed the format a little bit. Why would they do that if they are closing??

Their closing shop statement says closing a chapter. Maybe they will move on to other paper crafts or something else instead of closing completely. |
