I bought the July stamp and the foodie stamp because I surprisingly only have one other food stamp and it doesn't look like this one. I like the TN by itself but not the TN kit but I do not need another TN right now so I was strong and didn't buy it.

I think I am just grumpy today. I love IACB, I do - but after a while her stamps all look the same

I came to the same conclusion with the foodie stamp set. I think the only icon that isn’t a repeat from my other IACB sets is the pasta, but I don’t eat gluten, so... 🤷🏻♀️ I think there were probably pasta icons in PP awhile back, which I haven’t really looked at because... I’m GF. I know there was a lot of bread involved and I got real salty about it. 😅 I have gone back to look over all the SC offerings this month, practically begging to buy something and they got nothing I want even a little. Not sure what to even do with myself (or my birthday money!) anymore. Ha ha I was considering the set for that icon and the yum rating stamp for DD’s ratings of various GF pasta brands lol but I decided I had stuff similar somewhere. Plus DD intends to move this summer so the use would be short lived

I still like the whale stamp but the more I see it, the more I realize it would've been purely an impulse buy and I wouldn't actually use it all that much. So I guess it's a good thing that I didn't like the kit itself, lol

Obtrusive, impulsive, and unreliable? That gemini stamp has everything I need! These colors take me back to Heidi Swapp's Favorite Things PL kit -- I think it's mainly that bold lime green. I do love that Life in Color card though! See, as a Gemini I was a bit offended by the Obtrusive and Unreliable! Judgmental, indecisive, yes, but unreliable and obtrusive? Not exactly sentiments I see myself using. And why the big blob? Looking closer at the full Gemini stamp and comparing it to the others, I’m even more irked. It doesn’t list “air sign” or “Mercury” like the others do, and it has far more of the negative traits than the other signs’ stamps do. I’m really disappointed, because I was looking forward to this one, but it’s a no go for me.

Also, can we stop with the random ticket stamps? I have so many tickets in stamp sets. I've got ticket stamps coming out of my scrappy hooha.

I love IACB and I am crying out for more of her supplies but there does need to be a bit more variety, particularly in stamp sets. PLEASE GERALYN I NEED A STAMP ABOUT BEER/WINE/SPIRITS and I will not stop going on about it until someone delivers it for me

Can we also some new-ish sentiments? Like "poison of choice", "doing Dionysius proud", "currently: dancing with Bacchus". And a colour-in scale for spirits (light to dark). And "single malt vs blended". Hit us up, we have ideas (and drinks).

Update on the Local Eats stamp sets by IACB: I just don't think there's enough new material there for me to buy this full price. Would consider it with a 20% off coupon. I guess I could try to check out as a guest with that 20% off code I'd posted earlier in this thread. But I'm in no rush it get it despite the "bon appétit" sentiment. It would be a nice purchase for someone who doesn't have a lot of foodie stamp sets yet, however. Speaking of foodie stamps, Heba is sneaking EE with a cute ice cream themed stamp set. I always like how EE and IACB designs play nicely together.

Doesn’t SC usually release a travel collection in the summer? Have I missed it?

Doesn’t SC usually release a travel collection in the summer? Have I missed it? There was a travel TN kit released in April (?) called Find Your Adventure. Is that it? I wasn’t impressed at all. I am pretty sure the scribble washi was a repeat from DK kits last year. I saw it on Instagram, but then nothing at all afterwards.

Here's the bundle although the elements are available separately, too. It still ships for free in the US. groovy

Thanks, sleepingbooty. I completely missed that. Admittedly, I don’t pay much attention to the SC releases any more.

Maaaaaan I bought the color theory stars and didn’t read the fine print. Vellum not acetate. And a very small package at that. Colors are dull. I’m disappointed.

Yo, ladies, I'm out of the scrappy social media loop. Did SC post any stories about the IACB Things Are Looking Up stamp set shipping soon? It's supposed to start being mailed out in mid-June and well, it's kinda mid-June.

I figured I’d give them through the 15th before sending a message. My youngest babes get their second jabs this week! 🎉 I’ve got stampy celebrating to do. 🥳

I was expecting a ship notice any day and instead it’s a delay announcement. Surely they knew of the delay for awhile at this point. A little freebie would have gone a long way, too. A download of a couple journaling cards with a couple icons from the stamp, or something like that. 10% of inks, I don’t know, anything. This just felt lame.

It's always the supplier's fault with SC. Always. They always start their apology emails that way.
Anyway, by the time this stamp set is finally shipped + transits through the slow (again) international mail, I'll have been fully vaxxed and back out into the world for some time. Heck, we might be back in lockdown by then! (Farkin' delta variant messing with our plans in Europe.)

I agree with this 100%- I was like "I paid $15 for these?" SO disappointing. My thoughts exactly. I was so disappointed in both the color and the quality that I immediately got into contact with them and canceled my sub. I'll take my $15 elsewhere.

SC posted sneak peeks of the July kits and I am excited! A lot of travel themed products, which is perfect for me since we have a road trip planned July 3-11. I love the stamp set and the color theory labels look very usable.

Dear Studio Calico,
Just pay Geralyn to do the next Disney park stamp set. I don't need more messy handwriting or messy icons for my Disney stuff. Kthxbai
