I got it too and got it for $27. I think it’s worth it for the stamp and to watch and learn as I’d like to at least see about getting into Tn and giving it a shot.

Will they let us know when all the stamps have been taken? I'm mostly getting it for the stamp.  Edited to add: never mind.  I went ahead and bought the class. I also got the dark blue and power suit inks as recommended by peas on the previous page. |

Are any of the sketches for pocket pages? I want that stamp...but I'm not paying $30 for sketches I will never use... It looks like it's focused on TN pages and larger traditional LOs again. Where'd you see the traditional size layouts? Everything I am seeing just says TN. |

I think the sketches are meant to translate well to larger pages. That's what people were saying last year anyway. But the examples will be TN-focused again from the description and teaser photos. |

I went ahead and purchased it. I like the TN size and have a huge stack of them in my stash, so maybe this will inspire me to actually use them.

I really like the stamp, and I like the list of collaborators who will be sharing their work. I enjoy watching creators like Heba make layouts in Travelers' Notebooks, mainly because it's so relaxing. I like using more traditional binders with page protectors, though. That's the only thing that's stopping me from signing up for the class. I keep thinking it's such a good deal...but not if I can't use the sketch ideas.

I went ahead and bought it. I still have the past 2 summer of sketches that I haven't finished, I might as well make it a trifecta.  |

I get the SC emails so I went to see what this month they were offering and I was so excited to see a PEI stamp set, even though I have already done my PEI albums. But, man, typical SC, what a disappointment. The island and Anne image are great, and I get the lobster, but the bike? How generic and unnecessary and a huge waste of space. The Summerside and Charlottetown words are also kind of a waste as they are such a small part of PEI and people going there. Summerside should have been replaced with Cavendish for sure. How about some lighthouses (if they wanted something generic) or the words "red sand beaches"? Much more usable and unique to the location. Such a missed opportunity.

So this random 6x8 stamp set shows up in the mail. Huh, I don't remember ordering it, although the set looks very usable! I check my orders from SC & this was included in the Summer of Sketches class! I didn't even know that lol.

I ordered it today and the stamp set will be on its way t me soon! The stamp set looks versatile and the alpha is a great in-between size. |

I’ve been considering signing up for the class, but I have so many unfinished classes, so I’m still debating.

Haven't bought a DK or alpha stickers from SC in some time... What's up with how cloudy the alpha stickers look in photos? Are they using a shitty paper quality to make these?  |

I pulled out the last three kits and my alphabets were all fine...no change in paper quality and colors are bright. Not sure what's going on with them this month. |

I doubt it. For awhile SC was printing things on super thin sticker paper, like almost washi thinness paper, and that is the look of the ink on that same thin paper. |

I really liked the kits this month and considered splurging in all three as a birthday gift to myself. Then I walked back from the stamp set because I think there’s a lot of overlap with sets I have already. Then I won one of the Summer of Sketches class + TN kit giveaways they had DT members hosting on Instagram! 🥳 I’m so excited for lots of scrappy time this summer.

Did anyone watch the first sketch lesson? I really liked seeing everyone’s take on it and how each person used the layout prior to theirs. Nancy’s was my favorite and I’m going to totally try that sketch next.

I went ahead and bought the class. I also got the dark blue and power suit inks as recommended by peas on the previous page.
