  4. Interesting comments on the last post.

    I have been doing some cleaning in the ol' craft room and reluctantly putting some wood mounted stamps in the giveaway pile. Like several others, I have difficulty parting with supplies. Every 2 years, I do a purge and get the stash down to a manageable level. But my faves, I keep.

    I'm also trying to purchase things that are more my style and that I might actually use. No more DCWV (and the like) paper stacks for me! Those all went to a pre-k teacher last purge.

    That being said, I use what I like. The recipients of my cards are not crafters and have no idea how old the paper or stamps are.

  6. I am with you InkStink - no more paper stacks for me as well. I just put a pack together for school too.

  7. what are some of your fresh ink favorite colors for ink?

    ReplyDelete
  8. Take a leap outside the box and try different colors of Fresh Ink. You wont be disappointed

    ReplyDelete
  9. All Fresh Ink colors are great. I use Chamomile for Lemon Tart, Pool for Hawaiian Shoes and Fuchsia for Raspberry Fizz.

  10. Preggo #1 here. Just posting to let you know we had a miscarriage over the weekend. I am recovering from the D&C and doing OK. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers before. I am going to slide back to anonymity here and just be a smacker again.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Oh dear. I am SO sorry! Hugs to you as you recover.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm so sorry. Please take care of your emotional health as well. {{Hugs}}

    ReplyDelete
  13. I love every Fresh Ink I own, but my favorites are Ocean, Merlot, Grass, Lemonade, Mango, Red Current, Pool, Capri, and French Lavender.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Can someone please describe the Fresh Ink color Fig? It doesn't translate well on the online color chart. Reddish brown? Maroonish? TIA

    ReplyDelete
  15. Preggo #1, so very very sorry for your news. Take care and know warm thoughts are with you. Hugs..

    ReplyDelete
  16. Fig is a very warm, brick color. Not orange, not red. Google the word 'Fig' and look at the inside of a fresh fig. That's pretty much the color of the ink.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I would call the fig color a deep rust, a brick color, maybe a barn red?

    ReplyDelete
  18. preggo #1 i miscarried before I had my daughter a few years ago and if you are wanting to get pregnant again it happened for me with 3 months of the miscarriage. Good luck and just know there was a reason for it.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Preggo #1- so very sorry

    ReplyDelete
  20. So sorry for your loss, Preggo #1

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh Preggo #1, I'm so sorry!! Do take care of yourself.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Preggo #1, I am so sorry to read of your loss. I wish you well as you recover both emotionally and physically. I remember after my m/c I would be fine one minute and then sobbing like a blubbering fool in the middle of Barnes & Noble the next minute.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Thanks for the coupon code to Impress. Just ordered three inks. Look forward to getting them and enjoying them as much as many of you do.

    ReplyDelete
  24. They are the kind of pads you want really juicy so I always order a reinker with a new color.

    ReplyDelete
  25. One of the posters mentioned an Impress coupon code. I tried going back through the 308 posts in the last new post but didn't find the code. If someone has the code an wouldn't mind sharing that would be awesome. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  26. The code is "hot summer" and expires today. They close in 1.5 hours but I bet it will be good until midnight.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Dear preggo#1, so sorry for what you are going through. I hope you come out stronger on the other side. All the best to you!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Let's not forget Charlie the Unicorn. Shun the non-believers! Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnuuhh!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Does PTI have and Angel policy?

    ReplyDelete
  30. So sorry for your loss, Preggo #1. It is a tough road. Take care of yourself :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. I also got pregnant within 3 months after my miscarriage...my thoughts are with you and yours.

    ReplyDelete
  32. To Preggo #1 - been in your shoes too, so take care and allow yourself time to heal and feel strong again.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Who is Charlie the Unicorn????

    Sorry for your loss Preggo. Please take care.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh Charlie the Unicorn, one of the most inane and mindless but so full of things to laugh at videos on youtube. You MUST go look it up.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Charlieeee Charlieee - i love it. it's the dumbest thing but so addictive.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Speaking of dumb videos, are the cards on the MIM video today uglier than sin, or is it just me?

    ReplyDelete
  37. MIM is ugly today.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

    ReplyDelete
  39. so is ugliness

    ReplyDelete
  40. Thanks to the smacker who posted the Impress coupon code. Spent my PTI money on fresh inks last night instead of crappy PTI ink. Love how this site has helped me find other places to spend the money that PTI used to get from me.

    ReplyDelete
  41. You are welcome. I also gave Impress a big wad of money yesterday.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Ordered from W+9 late Saturday, shipping notice in my inbox this morning! I'm impressed!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Interesting, I can access the PTI forum from my phone and home computer but not my work computer.

    ReplyDelete
  44. ^^^^ could be a firewall

    ReplyDelete
  45. ^^Agreed. Sounds like it has been blocked through the firewall

    ReplyDelete
  46. 8:55 at work you are supposed to be working not reading the PTI forums. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  47. 6:54 it's just you.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I still cannot access the forum. It would be lovely if somebody that knows how to get Papertrey unblacklisted could tell Rick. I have sales pending.

    ReplyDelete
  49. ^^^cant u try a different computer?

    ReplyDelete
  50. how about a different browser?

    ReplyDelete
  51. I have tried both, thank you. Neither work.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Anyone got any cringingly bad youtube videos - either rooms or stash hauls, could do with a giggle!

    Thanks in advance

    ReplyDelete
  53. even when I go to the 2nd login screen and click to hide me this session, it doesn't hide me. WTF The forum is so jacked up it is frustrating.

    ReplyDelete
  54. ^^^snap, can't seem to show as hidden anymore, even after clicking on it!

    ReplyDelete
  55. I have sales pending too and I only imagine some people are hopping mad at me. I cannot access from any of the 3 computers I have tried. Will someone start a thread letting people know that many of us are not ignoring them, but we cannot read there?

    ReplyDelete
  56. ^^^ and out myself? no

    ReplyDelete

  57. Can't access forum either. Miss the for sale section, but otherwise don't miss it.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I posted a message on the Buy/Sell forum. I don't care about being outed ;)

    ReplyDelete
  59. Anyone else feeling that they don't care that we cannot see the forum? I bet this is a great way to keep certain people from posting.

    ReplyDelete
  60. 17:44 You are right, I don't care.

    ReplyDelete
  61. This might just change your mind about Gina K stamps:

    ReplyDelete
  62. PTI can go fly a kite. Every company I have ordered from in the last 4 months can get the package out and in my mailbox in less than 5 days with no issues every step of the way.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Ordered from LilInkers on Friday. Due to be delivered tomorrow. Avery Elle took 48 hours. Ellen Hutson took 48 hours. Impress took 72 hours. WMS from the UK (!!!!) took 6 days and shipping was cheap. I agree, PTI, cannot keep up this slow shipping and compete.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Ehhh sorry 20:40. Still nothing for me :(

    ReplyDelete
  65. Placed a PTI order last week, still no shipping email.
    Before you hate me, I still had points to use up from last year. I figured I might as well use them.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I really like the trailer cards in that Pinterest link you posted. Way cute.

    ReplyDelete
  67. 18:01 and 19:16, you're so irrelevant.

    You don't care.

    At all.

    That's why you're here.

    ReplyDelete
  68. 22:27 don't hate you at all.

    Have 2 release day shipments pending.
    First one was sent out today, the 2nd one still in the label printed phase.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Just because I am entertained doesnt mean I care

    ReplyDelete
  70. Just wondering if anyone here was one of the people that had a faulty Sunrise IP and what was the outcome for you? Did you have to send it back? Did you have to send pics? Did you get a refund/credit?

    ReplyDelete
  71. Better yet, anyone crazy enough to buy a Herringbone impression plate and admit it? Wonder if it's the same crappy quality. Wouldn't put it past them to continue skimping to maximize their profits. Look at the inks. They're now up to 6 colors that have consistency issues.

    Is it possible that the PTI colors themselves are a suitable RGB blend for liquid pigments? Think - cardstock, buttons, and ribbon colors are beautiful, fade proof, and consistent batch after batch. Paint? Couldn't get to market (no reason given). Ink? You know the story. Seems anything sold in a liquid form has issues but the dyed products are fine. The issue seems to be the stability of their perfect match color formulas over time when kept in a liquid state or set properly.

    Anyone got an ink pad that changes color after its been stamped? I wonder if heat setting the image would fix the color properly?

    ReplyDelete
  72. That should read - PTI inks AREN'T a suitable RGB match.
    (Sorry. Insomniac needs coffee.)

    ReplyDelete
  73. I don't understand why anyone would buy a Herringbone impression plate from PTI when there is already a Herringbone embossing folder from Cuttlebug (and has been for years). Embossing folders give much nicer impressions than impression plates and are easier to use/cheaper. There really aren't too many different ways to do Herringbone, they're all the same.
    Just curious...

    ReplyDelete
  74. It's now been 5 days since I ordered from PTI and it still says OK and hasn't been processed

    ReplyDelete
  75. So sorry about Gina K, still does nothing for me.

    I think the stamps are all just so....been there...done that...a million times before. Nothing new, unique, fresh about those images.

    Love the lady, don't love the stamps...

    ReplyDelete
  76. Here we go again-

    Poor gal.

    ReplyDelete
  77. 22:35 just here for the entertainment.

    22:27 no need to justify ordering to a bunch of smackers. it's a free country.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Didn't know there's a herringbone embossing folder. Are they smaller in size than the IPs?

    I am so wondering if PTI sorts deliveries on how payment was sent? PayPal vs credit card? Or is it the shipped via ups or USPS thing? They might have a system...?
    I see posts about people getting tracking numbers, even some who have received their boxes etc. Some people ordered before they did and still labels printed or just an ok.

    Gina k. Stamps do nothing for me too.

    ReplyDelete
  79. i don't like embossing folders as i don't like the deep impressions. prefer impression plates.

    ReplyDelete
  80. actually, gina needs a new design team. their designs are very dated

    ReplyDelete
  81. I ordered on release night and package came yesterday...Also, to the person waiting for delivery email...PTI no longer sends emails. You have to log into customer service, and click on the tracking # to track your package.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Letting the customers in on what goes on behind the scenes so there won't be disappointment:

    http://waltzingmouse.blogspot.com/2012/08/release-with-difference.html

    ReplyDelete
  83. No surprise about Claire...she's always very upfront about what going on
    Remember when she warned people about price a price increase so they could buy before prices went up?? I was very impressed

    ReplyDelete
  84. PTI could so take a lesson from Claire, but I believe they are permanently learning disabled.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Thanks 6:31, from all the discussions/complaints I've seen about impression plates vs. embossing folders, I've always assumed most people preferred the deeper embossing of folders. I guess I never thought otherwise.

    And yes, there has been a Cuttlebug Herringbone folder out for ages: http://www.amazon.com/Provo-Craft-Cuttlebug-Herringbone-A2-37-1915/dp/B005CSUZA0
    Most craft stores carry it. It is smaller than impression plate size, but I haven't had a problem repeating the embossing over a larger sheet of paper. Repeating patterns are easier to do this with.

    ReplyDelete
  86. why should pti be responsible if the post office screws up? not arguing, just curious. anyone know who is responsible -- the seller or the PO???

    ReplyDelete
  87. Most companies feel that until the package is in your hands, they are responsible. They track, insure, or whatever to make sure you receive it. IF you don't receive it Paypal will take payment back from them. Visa does the same thing.

    ReplyDelete
  88. not if the package was delivered and signed for.

    ReplyDelete
  89. The issue isnt that PTI is responsible, but they are the only ones that can start an investigation.
    So no way to even see who or where the screw up happened till PTI makes a call to the PO

    ReplyDelete
  90. PTI should've helped her investigate. They are such selfish turds.

    ReplyDelete
  91. actually, gina needs a new design team. their designs are very dated

    21 August 2012 06:31

    ^^ what she said. I just took a look and the majority of that team is very uninspiring and a couple girls I have never heard of. Someone of Gina's clout should have a top notch team for sure!

    ReplyDelete
  92. Gina K. has exactly what she deserves

    ReplyDelete
  93. To the person above that asked about the sunrise ip situation, I ordered one, it was defective and I had a go-around with Julie. Without warning last week I got the postage reimbursed. Yesterday a new ip came in the mail. It is also defective. I'm not sure what I will do at this point.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Oooooh my boss needs to work for PTI. - all she does is want someone to blame for everything. She is such a bitch

    Thanks for the vent

    And before anyone says its - I know many of you dont care. But i do feel better

    ReplyDelete
  95. Hey Rick, any word on getting Papertrey unblacklisted?

    ReplyDelete
  96. Hey Rick, any word on getting Papertrey unblacklisted?

    ReplyDelete
  97. 10:27 If you bought something defective from Walmart, you'd exchange it once, then return it for a refund if it was still defective, right? Why would it be any different for PTI?
    Reply to the ticket you started with their Zendesk CS, tell them you want to return it for a full refund. Period.
    If they don't issue you a refund within a specified amount of time, contact your CC co.

    ReplyDelete
  98. i'd post the defective IP on the buy sell forum and include the info that it is defective. just to get the attention of the PTI PTB (hate that phrase...!!)

    ReplyDelete
  99. I bought the sunrise IP. Have had no problem with it either.
    I bought the Herringbone IP plate too!. Love the impression PTI's plate give over the Cuttlebug folder, plus I like the option of both sides as well as the larger area the impression covers.

    ReplyDelete
  100. "i'd post the defective IP on the buy sell forum and include the info that it is defective. just to get the attention of the PTI PTB (hate that phrase...!!)"

    lol, I can't get into the forum.

    ReplyDelete
  101. 10:01 Geesh! What is that supposed to mean?

    ReplyDelete
  102. Last week, someone mentioned they already owned 8 teacher's stamp sets that were much better than PTI's latest release. Would appreciate suggestions for PTI alternatives. Thanks in advance!

    ReplyDelete
  103. 10:01 is Nichole. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  104. ^^^I wondered the same thing. Ha!

    ReplyDelete
  105. i was on gina's dt. she was kind, reasonable, and generous to a fault. have no skin in this game but resent the implication that gina sucks.

    ReplyDelete
  106. ^^^^^ I'm sure she is but her designs are lacking.

    ReplyDelete
  107. My teachers sets have come from MFT, Taylored Expressions, and Red Lead.

    ReplyDelete
  108. so if you don't like gina k's designs I have a news alert for you. don't buy them. she hasn't done a thing to cause someone to start smacking her.

    oh that's right, if someone as so much as opens up a computer, it is your right to smack that person.

    ReplyDelete
  109. I don't think anyone is smacking Gina K. She just comes up quite often as an impeccable model for customer service, which most of us agree she is the best. Her stamps IMO, are not. I am entitled to share that opinion considering there are quite a few of us that share it. I don't consider that smacking and I'm sorry if you think it is.

    ReplyDelete
  110. Someone just posted an old phone number for PTI on SCS. It's actually Heskamp Printing's phone number. I wonder if they are going to be inundated with PTI CS calls now, lol.
    I hope so.

    ReplyDelete
  111. I am 12:35 and I was asking what 10:01 meant by that snarky "Gina K. has exactly what she deserves" comment. -that doesn't sound like 10:01 talking about her stamp designs at all.

    My original comment was that most of her team is uninspiring with some no-names. I was wondering aloud that Gina has a great rep in the industry and could attract some top notch designers.

    ReplyDelete
  112. Gina DOES have what she deserves. A happy marriage, a strong faith, talented Christian girls who are bright and healthy, strong family ties, intelligence and most of all INTEGRITY. I think Gina does have what she deserves.

    ReplyDelete
  113. i know you don't think that is smacking.

    i do.

    ReplyDelete
  114. 12:53 the top notch designers are at PTI.

    ReplyDelete
  115. ^^^^ correction 17:53...The top notch designers are at PTI.

    ReplyDelete
  116. I don't think 10:01 is Nichole but it does sound like someone not very happy with Gina. I thought with the addition of Beth and Becky to her team, card designs would be better/nicer but nope, I was wrong.

    I think 17:35 said it best and I agree with her. Gina's stamps are not calling me as some do.

    ReplyDelete
  117. I honestly believe PTI stamp designs inspire people to create beautiful things with them.

    Agree with 18:29, top notch designers are with PTI. I don't know how they do it, they just want me to buy buy buy every time. Not that I can though.

    ReplyDelete
  118. I am 17:35, 18:40 actually I am talking about her design team, not illustrators. I actually really like the majority of the stamps coming out lately. Especially the kits. Very cute designs.

    I think you guys are right, PTI has a lot of the top notch designers (save ACN). Verve also has some amazing talent. But, there is more than enough great designers left to make an amazing DT. Gina should seek them out and clean house!

    I admit to being super tempted by the kit (have looked at it several times) but I think the price point is high, especially when you add shipping.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Please share 20:36, I can't even imagine who would think Gina K has no integrity.
    This person obviously needs to be on Lithium or something, out of their gourd....

  140. Okay, I have looked around on here a LOT and still can't find it. If somebody could please tell me the name of the SU set that's like Autumn Hills?

    A million thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  141. The SU set is long retired so it may be hard to find. I will look through my old catalogs in a bit to see if I can find the name again.

    ReplyDelete
  142. 0754, I appreciate it!

    ReplyDelete
  143. Mmmm - The new WMS release looks lovely - and matching dies made by Spellbinders. Hard to beat that.


    ReplyDelete
  144. found the old SU set -- it is In the Country from the 07-08 catalog.

    HTH!!

    ReplyDelete
  145. I like Becca's card kit but the price point and the sizing (good for 5 x7 cards) is not for me. Tempted though.

  147. I like the SU one much better than the PTI one,.

    ReplyDelete
  148. There seem to be several of the SU sets for sale if you google for them.

    ReplyDelete
  149. They are both similar but I think that Country Pleasures is closer.

  150. @ 6:42 the three stooges ARE running the place at PTI!!! Surely you are not just NOW figuring that out??

    ReplyDelete
  151. I have no interest whatsoever in Becca's card kit. Not only is the price too high for me, but I don't care for her style of cards at all.

    And I am curious if anyone buys card kits anyway?

    ReplyDelete
  152. You mean to tell me that Rick is not hurrying to get the system fixed so the smackers can get back on the forum to sell off their PTI supplies and stir the shit? What a shocker!!

    ReplyDelete
  153. I think 6:42 was referring to Curly, Moe and Larry.

    ReplyDelete
  154. I can get into the forum no problem. It's not down...

    ReplyDelete
  155. What makes you think that only smackers are having a hard time getting onto the forum? How would you know if a non-smacking customer can't access the forum? What about a potential customer who wants to learn more about PTI before purchasing? Guess they're screwed, huh?

    ReplyDelete
  156. Ricks not on vacation, and he's posting sneaks of the new site in the forum

    Anyone here still believe he didn't design the site??

    ReplyDelete
  157. I am not impressed that I can't get onto the forum. I came here to see what was up after not getting much information from zendesk. Reading that Rick is/isn't on vacation just makes me mad.

    •Wish List - YES, it's coming!!! We're not kidding this time!
    •Your Account - You will notice more features when logging into your account. Customers will have the ability to change billing information, passwords, add/edit all address information, multiple wish lists, add/edit to wish lists, sign up for product updates and our newsletter.
    •Product Stock Updates - When an item is out of stock, you can be notified when the item comes back in stock by subscribing to product updates in "My Account."

  161. That says it's from the Customer Service Manager. Is that Rick's job title/department there, or are you just assuming that it's Rick posting it?

  162. This is old news. It was posted on August 4th so it's not like this proves that he is or isn't on holidays.

  163. Sorry, that last post was very snarky. I will go and take my anti-bitch pills and come back when I have something constructive to add.

  170. rick posted on the forum so you would know that it is a smacker posting that he is on vacation.

  171. 16:45 - Actually, it was probably a shit-stirring unicorn that posted Rick was on vacay.

  172. Thank you for the replies regarding Becca's kits. I really like the Spellbinders die that came with the set but not the other stuff. 57+ just for wanting the die is out of the question for me then.

    ReplyDelete
  173. i posted about rick being on vacay.

    i just randomly post wrong stuff not because I'm a unicorn -- wouldn't give pti 10 cents of my $$.

    i do it cause I think anyone who is stupid enough to rely on a smack blog deserves disinformation.

  175. I can access the forum. They did say a new and improved one will go live on September 1. The day before it goes live, the site will shut down I think that's the term...
    Screenshots looked pretty decent too.

    ReplyDelete
  176. Where did you see screenshots?

  177. 17:47 Why don't you take a hike. You obviously have wayyyy more time on your hands than us regular smackers to think up all of your bullsh*t mind games.

    Everyone would agree you are the one that looks like an idiot.
