Saw in her newsletter that she’s going to have a mini book sub, different than what’s out there. I might be in trouble with that one! Uh Oh I’m starting to love her mini books!! This could be both awesome and addicting. Everyday Explorers is becoming one of my favorite companies. Sneaks are on IG for the subscription! What does everyone think? I really like the idea but I’m a bit hesitant re: the logistics of working with and actual book with pages. |

I’m definitely going to check it out. While I would love another 12x12 subscription, a mini book sub might be fun!

I’m excited to hear more about it. I love the idea of a themed mini book. The positivity passport was so fun to do over the summer, I want to do it again or something similar. Not sure about committing to a sub.

I’m not sure I’d make a mini book every month, but I’m more likely to make a mini book every month than to use other subs every month. |

I could see myself grabbing a mini book kit for a trip. I always struggle about what to pack and these look like they would solve my problems. I don't plan to sub as I already have my PP sub, and Brandi's EH & those are enough.

I don’t have an Instagram account, but this may be what pushes me over the edge to create one!  I am loving the sneaks so far. I’ll be watching her site on the 13th for sure! I’m thinking about cancelling one of my subs for this one... |

Oh I love those colors! I don't have time/space in my brain to create mini books now, but I hope this is successful because this is definitely something I would find super helpful.

sleepingbooty all your talk of Kari Stiles has got me interested in her EE Explorers Xmas stamp Guilty, Your Honour.  I do love her aesthetic and design philosophy so very much. Sorry about the 6x8 price tag. It sucks. But look at all the fun you could have with it... And all the pretty inks you could use with it... (I better start running and find somewhere to hide before your banker finds out I'm to blame for any extra purchases this month.) |

She has an IG live up on her channel with more info about the kit, the cost & the perks of subscribing.

I'm a little surprised how expensive the kits are - $34.95 monthly, $32.95 a month for 3 months (prepaid), and $29.95 a month for 6 months (prepaid). Shipping is a flat $3.50 in the US, and includes anything else you buy on launch day. Three and six month subs also come with the digital version of the kit.
May's theme is self pep talks and June's is like a "state of the union" type deal.

There’s also a discount for shop items when you sub. 10 & 15% I believe. And possibly lives for subscribers only.
I feel like the prepaid part might be difficult for some. I know it’s in the beginning phase but I would need a list of upcoming themes before I commit to a 6 month sub.

I literally marked my calendar for the release! I can’t wait to order the mini book kit. I’m also interested in the new places prompts stamp set. I’m going to do at least a 3 month sub but most likely a 6 month. I don’t know if it rolls over after that for another 6 months or month to month after that. If all goes well, I’ll get this first kit right before I finish my first positivity passport. These mini books are easy and are motivating me to do something every day. |

Such a great idea! I love doing mini albums but not necessary necessarily travelers notebooks. I will definitely be keeping these in the back of my mind. I’m not subbing, the price point seems a bit on the steep side, and for that it needs to be perfect (for me). I don’t like glossy stickers and the color of this kit doesn’t quite work for me.

And subscribers ship first before non subscribers ( hint KP hint hint ) I’d subscribe if she had a digital subscription but hopefully the digital price will be good ( I just wouldn’t mind early access lol ) |

I love the looks of the kit, but the paying for it all up front kills me. I can pay it, I just don’t want to pay that much all at once. . If she charged like most other sub models I would be all over it. But paying that much upfront for just a 5.00 discount isn’t something I am willing to do. The price is already high even for the 6 month per month price, the discount would have to be bigger for me to bite.
Bummer, because I like the kit and idea a lot.

I'm going to keep an eye on this. I don't love the colors or the stamp, so will not buy this month, but I definitely like the idea. The upcoming themes also don't attract me, so might be a few months before I buy one.
** After watching Christine's IGTV and looking at what the sub included, having the digitals swung it for me, so I subbed for 3 months

As expected, I got the six month sub and I can’t wait to get the first one.
I like this kit and the variety of ways to use a “places” theme—it could be for upcoming travel, previous travel, everyday places in everyday life, places I’d like to go...
I think the upcoming themes are unique too and are something I can use for an everyday book, kinda like the positivity passport.
I also got the my places prompts and the today’s outfit stamps. I have to admit the phrase “Same Shirt Different Day” may have pushed me over the edge, but there are also many days I could probably use the “Retail Therapy” stamp.
Now I need to start using all of these eleventy billion stamps that I’ve ordered since discovering Everyday Explorers!
