I finally broke down and put in my order for some of their stamps and paper. Love, just love the paper. I also got some of the dies, very nice and affordable. I bought the jars and fillers, especially for the witches feet. Michelle Wooderson is addictive, please check out her blog you will not be disappointed.
Now I just checked out their sneck peeks for this month. I am sure that this newest fillers for the jar will be sold out. I am going to be sitting on the computer with my order to go at the first possible minute.
I was so frustrated with PTI at first but since they have given their discount for the over 100.00 order I am finding that I am very happy. Still have long delivery and I do get hit with the 5.00 duty plus taxes, but I have to pay taxes in Canada so I just pay it.
So ladies go check out the newest sneak peek to this company.
I'm been stalking the release this month, and so want it all!
the filler jar set are so far my favs.
I love them.
and the tiny treats sets so so cute., cant wait to get this months.
I've been NOT looking at Christmas stamps because I already have enough (I feel guilty about not inking up every stamp each Christmas as it is...), but I love PTI release time. It's very exciting even though I usually don't buy anything. I love all of the ideas and I think Nichole is one of the most creative people I've ever seen. She'll do 5 totally different things with each new stamp set and each one is gorgeous!!! I usually buy ribbons, papers, and will maybe treat myself to a stamp set..

I too will be stalking the website tomorrow night to get the latest and greatest. Last month there was a glitch and it showed the new printed calendars to be sold out (which they weren't). I was so bummed that I didn't get them with my free shipping. I never ordered them and was really bummed that I couldn't start making little gift calendars right away. LOL. Like I would really start that early anyhow. Gheesh! I loved last month's calendar set and die. So on my list they'll go this month along with a few more new goodies! In addition to their stamps, I am loving all of their dies. Their DT all does an amazing job! Good luck tomorrow night Lorri! Hope you get everything you want!
Holiday fillers, limitless layers dies, and vintage ornament dies...

I've been a fan of the "Take Three" series too. Waiting to see if there is a holiday/winter set this month. If I stay up a little longer...I'll get to see the next sneak peek posting. I think both of those die sets are in my future too and that open border die that I've seen on projects but not specifically mentioned yet in posts. Anyone know if the new inks will be out this month as projected? I haven't checked for updates on that.
PTI makes me go broke every month. My poor craft account needs life support. I have resisted their dies up until now, this month, I'm not sure I can resist much longer!
I too want quite a bit so far this month and two lovely new colors...yummy. It is going to be hard but I think I am going to have to wait because the rubber stamp expo is here at the end of the month and I want to have some cash to spend there...

LOL!! I specifically have been avoiding Nicole's blog just so I would not be enticed.... I love everything but specifically the two new colors... Blueberry Sky and Pinefeather....ugh...must resist!!! I am thinking of selling my cricut expression just to buy new goodies!

There is not going to be a Take Three set this month, but probably next month. Nichole has updated on her blog that they are in the final testing phase for the new inks and hope to have them available in December. I can't wait for the new inks!!
They are only available online through the PTI website. The only brick and mortar store I know of that sells their stamps is the one right by Nichole's house. But they do ship internationally, if you are interested!
I live in Las Vegas and you can find beggars on every corner....well pretty much..I am thinking of making a little sign that says need money for stamps and finding a corner of my own...

Well I can't get through because the site is having difficulties. I guess everyone is buying. Oh well it is not like I won't use them next year, I am making my christmas cards tonight for this year already.
I don't think it's just you. I can't get in either. Still shows September release on front page. I think they are having technical difficulties so hold on!
I made it through right before the site crashed -- the time on my receipt printout says 11:03 p.m. CST, so that's right after the release went live. When I hit "continue shopping" to go back and look some more, the site never loaded, and I finally got an error message.
Hmph. No error message for me...just not showing new release...only Sept release. Been a rough day for me...my four year old kitty died of a heart attack in my arms this morning and my puffy eyes and broken heart can't stay up too much longer...I'm East Coast too so it's late. I was in for a little retail therapy tonight but doesn't look like it's in the cards for me. Good luck to everyone else trying.
Click on the top PAPERTREY INK and see if it will refresh to showthe new release. When I did that it still showed September but it was in blue instead of the brown and the new releases are there.
So sorry to hear about your kitty bbgirl66. I know how you feel and my heart breaks for you.
I was able to get in. I was ordering for myself as well as two other people. It started getting slow, so I split the order. My first one went through at 6 minutes after midnight. I just kept bouncing around and got lucky and got in again. Once I was in, I would go back to the page of what I had put in my cart and then click on the PTI name. It would then take me to the front page and I could order and place things that way. Good luck!!

Oh my gosh - that's terrible! I am so sorry for the loss of your furbaby!
Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts. Daisy was a sweetie and we will miss her terribly. It was such a sad day. I did finally get in (thanks to Stamper for Fun and her tip!) and now I'm off to bed to try to sleep. She slept next to me so part of me is avoiding going in to bed. Wish I was like hubby. He's blue but it doesn't keep him up nor do his eyes look like mine! Yikes. Thanks again for your thoughts. Have fun with your new PTI goodies! BTW, so glad I got the Victorian Lace die. It was speaking to me...among many other things. Nighty night.
Sorry to hear about your kitty. I placed my oder this morning and everything was in stock, thank goodness. I ordered the tag die and the circle dies, and four stamp sets, no paper. I am still waiting to receive my SU order that I placed on the 5th. That's it for me no more goodies for the rest of the month, I am broke.
YAH!! I was sitting by the computer - going back and forth on whether to place an order when it went live..........so many cute things this month - when lo and behold I hit the reload button at midnight (est) and what appears but MY NAME as the winner of the new release package!!!!! I am still in shock! PTI goodies are great, good quality, great customer service and very generous with their contests each month!!!! Now I will have to sit patiently waiting for my goodies to arrive!!! I was over on the forum and they were having problems getting in and seeing the new goodies - but that just shows how us serious stampers can crash a server! LOL
That's awesome! Congratulations! You mention good quality. I had taken some PTI stamps over to a friends house for a stamping evening. She had never used them...she's an SU demo and likes her red rubber. Well I too prefer rubber, but I told her that these acted more like rubber than the squishy clear stamps she's probably used. She couldn't believe how high quality they were. She was amazed...just like when she used my Copics. I'm sharing the crafting love...and the addiction. Thanks ocbdrb.

Congratulations what an awesome bundle this month, Hope you don't have to wait too long, I'd be bursting with excitement!
i loaded my cart the day before and only had to peek at the new stuff....i did get two batches of felt (poppy and pinefeather) and the jar fillers (oh, i just love those jar fillers).....the other part of my order was old sets that i had not needed before. funny, i need them now !!
score tape, some cardstock.....no dies this time. i got on friday morning and had no problems.
Congrats, Margaret. I was bouncing back and forth between the forum and Nichole's blog when your name was announced. And I was able to get in and get what I wanted. This was my first release party - so much fun!

I forgot about the release and was in bed watching TV with DH and all of a sudden looked at him and said "Oh my gosh, what day is it? " It was about 10pm our time, so about 1am PTI time. I had some trouble viewing a few sets but was able to by the time I was done ordering. I guess it was after the crash! Nothing seemed to be sold out yet, at least what I wanted.

I'm so sorry. My kitty is 14 and was diagnosed with bladder cancer last week, so I needed some retail therapy as well. Hugs.
PTI is doing it again!!!!!
