If anyone has the link for the new anniversary set could you please post it for me!! For some reason I can't find it anywhere. This is the first year I have earned it and I am so excited to see what it looks like. Thanks in advance.
Sigh...I shouldn't ask this, but what's the anniversary set about?
If you buy a certain number of full-size sets from Papertrey during their "year" (I think it runs from Feb. to Jan), they send you a free set that is only available to those customers. I think you have to buy 12 sets.
It's their "thank you" to their customers, rather than having sales.

Oh my, I knew I shouldn't ask...LOL! I bought my first 2 sets this morning. Can't wait to try them out! I usually buy rubber but they have some great sets. I'm sure I will buy more if I get the hang of using them! I can't wait to try them! I hear nothing but good things about their quality.....

That's great! I had bought some buttons and ribbon from them last summer and was very impressed. Now I can't wait to see the stamps. I also ordered the paper sampler pack. I have tons of paper but always seem to fall in love with the "limited" edition colors and would love to get away from those.
BTW I too prefer rubber stamps - but that was before I tried PTI stamps - I love love love their stamps - good clean impressions - nice and crisp every time!
That means that my 2 count towards this years count of 12! YAY! The set the OP wants to see is the set that you will get for buying 12 last year?
What? I thought the cut off was the 18th. I waited for release because I only needed two sets to meet the requirement. I know I read that somewhere which is why I waited. I am going to go look for it! I read so much stuff I may have zoned on that one, though.
Actually, I really WANT the PTI Floral Fusion set! That set was only offered to people who spent a certain amount at last falls CHA. Bummer! Did not go! I still want it, though!
I just checked and the new dates are UP! I really think I missed it! I cannot believe it! I really thought it said the 18th. I actually checked to make sure I could wait until this release. This is just way too confusing for me...obviously! LOL!
Yeah, I am pretty sure the "year" is from Feb. 15th, 2009 to Feb. 14th of 2010. Anything purchased on Feb. 15th 2010, including the new release, would count toward the 2010-2011 anniversary set.

Just a quick question about this as I've never earned one before. I purchased 14 stamp sets in the last year but had 3 of them mailed to an American friend, who then added more bits to my box and shipped me a lovely pressie over to the UK. Will those stamps count towards my total? I used my billing address and email, which is what it says on the PTI website, but just checking to see if anyone has done this before and not received their anniversary set because of it.
I wonder if the anniversary set is going to be sent out with orders placed during the new release. The site says "If you placed an order on or after March 15th an Anniversary set may be included with your order." I would love to know. If it is I will order tonight, otherwise I will wait a few weeks until the madness calms down.

Last year my order of the March 15 release stuff included the anniversary set. It does help PTI save some $ on shipping costs to include the freebie with an order that's already going out, so it works for me!
Does anyone know if you have to purchase 12 *different* sets to qualify or if there can be repeats? The Come Grow With Us page says you can order as a group to qualify for sets but it also says if you have "ordered 24 unique sets". A friend and I might order together to try to qualify but I think we both want Distressed Stripes! Does that make sense? I can't get into the PTI forum right now to ask and the faq page on nichole's blog is blank. Thanks!

No, they don't have to be unique sets any more. That was true once, but changed at least for this most recent set.

SWEET! Thanks so much!

There's a post somewhere on PTI's forum that due to Nichole's hospitalization a few weeks ago the shipping date for the anniversary sets had to be pushed back, I think into April. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to get it with the April release order. Definitely looking forward to it, but there's so much other new PTI stuff that I can stand to wait!
I just saw that post - Nichole said they will probably ship them separately from the April release and may take up to 4-6 weeks. She's asking people to wait until after May25th to contact customer service if you haven't received the set by then.

Bummer, I placed an order earlier this week and was hoping that maybe it might include the anniversary set. Oh, well I ordered enough other stuff to keep me busy for awhile.

I am afraid although I bought lots and lots of sets...way over the requirement I probably will not get the set...I think I used two different email addys...
blessings.

They do a lot of cross referencing of names/addresses/email/billing info. If you've kept your packing slips/order confirmations, you'll be able to contact them should you not get what you think you are entitled to.

Do check with them if you don't get one. The first year I had used 2 different e-mails. I contacted them and they put them together and I got the free set.

I received my anniversary sets, with my May order, yesterday. I was crossing my fingers they would arrive with this order. The set is a bit different than the previous couple of years; I think it's really pretty...can't wait to try it out!
I purchased a set from a fellow stamper here that had extras. I forgot how much work it is to get these stamps into a CD box. It is like putting a puzzle together, especially after using CTMH stamps that require no work at all
I gave up and pulled off the sticker from the CD case, cut it up into individual images, stuck them on a SU! clear stamp case and stuck the stamps all nicely on the inside, sentiments all facing up on one side and images all facing up on the other.
If I thought about it before, I would have cut up the images first before peeling off the wax paper. Oh well, live and learn
