So, today is the 15th of May. According to all the information about these new subscriptions, we should be getting sneak peeks today for all six sets. I haven't seen anything on their blog or FB page. I really want to love these new offerings and the long decision period between sneaks and commitment was one encouraging aspect of the program!

June sneaks are up on their blog now.
Interesting.

Thanks -- I've been in and out today; I checked a few times earlier but they weren't up yet.
I don't "get" the cling stamp of the month. The rest seem to hang together pretty well. It's not a theme/motif that knocks my particular socks off, but I like that it looks pretty flexible as far as working together.
I wonder if there will be additional sneaks and DT projects on the blog going forward over the next couple weeks before the commit date. I also wonder if there will be additional "add ons" like there were for MMH or if the different subs are "it".

City, pigeons, apartments, bird window plant, and... zebra-ish stripes. Sigh. I don't get it either, and my brain is usually fairly good at making connections between odd things. I don't see anything exciting in the sneaks, just more of the same kind of thing they've been doing, but divided into different kits.

Are the stripes supposed to be to represent electric or telephone lines like in the top photo?

I think I’m ok with the different kits. I’ve mentioned I used to sometimes get MMH, while other months I might instead get the Joann/HA Make Yourself at Home kit. They aren’t issuing new Joann kits anymore, likely due to Joann’s financial woes. It occurs to me that those two similar product lines had distinct differences. The Joann offerings often including a cling background stamp. I don’t think they ever had layering stencils. I have one that included a layering fancy die focal image, but never a fancy window die or background/scenery dies. I think that having separate offerings for some of these product types, as long as they can easily be used together, might yield the variety of product type mix I’ve been getting.
But I’m still hoping for some DT blog posts.

Has anybody seen any DT sneak peeks, like they used to post for MMH? I actually emailed them late last week to ask about this. They replied and said sneaks would continue to be released all weekend, but I haven't seen any on their FB page or website blog. I thought maybe someone on different socials may have.

Sneaks always started the Friday before release Monday( first of the month). I would think that will be this coming weekend.

Maybe she meant next weekend, then. Although all the hype for this new program talked about sneak peeks starting the 15th of the prior month. It didn't say anything about one tiny peek on that date and everything else the weekend before like it's always been....

Sneaks for Card Kit are on the blog now. Kinda cute but not a must-have for me. More sneaks for other things are coming.

Not a thing that I can't live without, but with the exception of the tree rings cling stamp, it's pretty easy to see how they could coordinate and work together, but also each be a reasonable addition to a stash on its own.

Yeah, nothing that excites me. The card kit is OK but I can live without it. The tree ring texture might be fun to play with but I'm not going to run out to get it and it doesn't really mesh with the rest of the kit from what I'm seeing. The card kit looks like it would play nicely with some other similar city/heroscape kits they've released - ones I've seen on Scott/cardcutups channel but didn't buy.

I like the layering stencil and am kicking myself for not subscribing, because shipping to order outright is 4.99. Grrrrrrr
I also like the skyline stencils in the card kit, but not sure I like the whole kit enough to pay for it.

She did some cute stuff with this kit for sure. She is truly an evil Influencer genius. I have to be really careful that I don't fall for her influencing just because I like the colors she uses.
