Just ordered the sympathy set (plus the pet add on one), some paper and ribbon! I've been wanting a sympathy set for a while, so this was perfect timing!
As usual I ordered before the release so now I have to wait until next month to get the new black CS, ribbon and I agree the sympathy set is wonderful. I really like using the PTI CS for my bases, it is so much more sturdy than the SU CS.
Sometimes I buy, sometimes I wait. I generally like it...this month I want it all, as least as far as stamps go. I don't need one more color of black ink. Iusually order in $50 spurts to ensure I get free shipping. I am trying to wait to order, to see if there is something I can take off the list.
As the sneak peeks rolled out I just found myself thinking...I want that...I want that...I want that...I hate feeling like a greedy glutton. But I really do love this months stamps.

Ummm . . . yup, I did! I am absolutely HOOKED on their paper. I ordered the black cardstock andt the patterned paper. Sometimes I think a black and white card is SO pretty--but it's hard to find REAL blacks! I also ordered the sympathy set and the add on pet set. I ALWAYS spend $50 per order at PTI to get the free shipping but it's very easy to do!
I loved all the peeks on Nichole's blog. But then when I saw all the sets in their entirety the ones I liked I didn't think I would use. So I only ended up with one set and some paper. I haven't ordered in months so it was nice to get a little something.
I keep telling myself "I don't need it, I don't need it, I don't need it" but I've got $62 worth of stuff in my cart waiting for me to hit checkout now. :-)

I've managed to keep myself from ordering any PTI goodies for several months, but I'm afraid my wallet is going to take a big hit this month. Really good stuff this month, and that black cardstock is gor-jus!
I am liking the sympathy set and the add-ons for it. I also like the Around and About set, but I really need to think on how much/often I'd use it.
I really want to use up the black cs I have from SU before I order the PTI black, but it looks gorgeous! That's kind of my motto with ordering the cs...use up what I have before I order new PTI cs. For the most part, it's worked....I only have a few packs of the PTI cs
I want to wait until the medium heart punch is back in stock before I order anything right now. Gotta have that punch!!!
I keep telling myself "I don't need it, I don't need it, I don't need it" but I've got $62 worth of stuff in my cart waiting for me to hit checkout now. :-)
Me too, except I think my total is closer to $90 and that was BEFORE the new stuff went live last night.....I'm in trouble! I do love the Sympathy set though.

I like the Around and About set as an added touch to the front of my cards. I am hoping I can turn an ordinary card into something a touch better with a new sentiment and a pop dot.
(And Meg, I'll mud wrestle you for the challenge. Maybe Mike could wash us up one side and down the other.)
Thank you for the link. What beautiful stamps! I'm still negotiating the learning curve as far as the acrylic stamps go, but I'll definitely be picking up a few of those PTI sets!
(Judy, if you produce Mike for the apr�s-wrestling event, I'll be more than happy to let you win in the pit.)
I ordered all three sets of the symphathy, and then splurged and got some card stock and new stamp pads, and ribbon.
can't wait until the box to my house.

I really want to try a few stacks of their papers and order the stamps, but the shipping is way too much (for me).
I also live in Canada, so I save up and buy a large amount of PTI CS this way the shipping cost dosn't sting as much, besides there CS is so worth the hit on shipping. Maybe you could find someone else that is willing to go in with you on an order and split the shipping charges?
I just ordered Around & About, Quilter's Sampler Additions, a True Black ink pad and True Black cardstock. I haven't ordered anything new in awhile so I'm really excited! My PTI wish list is still long. I really love their designs and their paper is wonderful. I've been an SU girl for a long time but PTI has "made an impression" on me and I'm an "impressed" customer. ;)
ooh did you see the PTI release?
