Make Story Kit + April 2023 Stories By The Month Kit

Today's the 10th of the month and that means a new Story KitStory Stamp, and Stories By The Month kit. This month we also have the next One Little Word® Mini Kit available too. 

This month we are focusing on stories related to the theme of Make.

We are all makers. We make plans, we make time, we make progress, we make choices, we make stuff by hand, etc. This month we are telling stories of the things we make in our lives: the big things + the little things. 

Initial story ideas for this theme include:

  • Make a list of the things you are currently engaged in making. 
  • When was the last time you "made it happen"? Write that out telling the who and what and where and why and how. 
  • What are you making time for in your life right now? 

STORY KIT

The  Story Kit™ includes: 

Here's a video overview of the  Story Kit™ and Add-On options this month:

STORY CLASS // INCLUDES DIGITAL STORY KIT

Here's a look at what's included in the Digital Story Kit™:

Your digital kit and the classroom and any Add-Ons purchased will be available to you on the 12th once your card has been charged for the month. This kit is also available to physical kit subscribers as an Add On each month. 

Here are a few sneak peeks at projects you'll find in the classroom this month from Ali:

Again, thanks so much for subscribing and/or considering our Story Subscription program! If you have any questions about this program please let us know below in the comments. 

STORIES BY THE MONTH™

First and foremost we are excited to begin offering a classroom included with this subscription (called Inspiration By The Month). Each month Lisa Varshine, Krystal Iduante, and Jen Wong will share inspiration in a classroom using pieces from the Stories By The Month™ kit. 

Here is a full look at the kit this month: 

The kit now includes a sheet of vellum or transparency (sized outside the page protector in a 6 inch x 8 inch album), a pattern paper, a 3 inch x 8 inch (outside the page protector) journal card with the month at the top which will be repeated each month, a 3 inch x 4 inch stamp set, chipboard, 4, 3 inch x 4 inch journal cards, 3, 4 inch x 6 inch journal cards and an embellishment. 

And a video overview:

This subscription is a great option for those who are looking to tell more calendar/everyday life sorts of stories. 

INSPIRATION BY THE MONTH (DIGITAL STORIES BY THE MONTH)

Our Digital Stories By The Month™ kit is now called Inspiration By The Month™. With this subscription you receive access to the Inspiration By The Month™ classroom and the digital kit.  This kit is also available to physical Stories By The Month™ kit subscribers as an Add On each month.

ADD ON OPTIONS 

For the next couple of months we will be offering add on's from our current inventory. Make sure you check out what's all available via your My Subscriptions page. 

Add On options are available to all Story Kit™, Story Stamp™, and Stories By The Month™ physical subscribers (this excludes Digital Story Kit/Story Class subscribers since you don't have any part of your subscription shipped already). Current and new subscribers can select + purchase Add-On's via your new drop-down menu access under your user name in the top right corner of the site: you need to do this before the 11th of the month in order for them to ship with your kit. Depending on product availability subscribers may be able to purchase the Add-On's after the Add-On period has ended and regular shop shipping rates will apply because they will ship separately from the kit.

ONE LITTLE WORD® MINI KIT #2

One Little Word® Mini Kit #2 subscription is now available! 

Purchasing the first One Little Word® Mini Kit commits you to an "auto-shipment" + charge of the remaining three kits at the time of their shipping. The remaining two kits will be charged + shipped on/around 6/15/23, 9/15/23. Please note if you are already subscribed to the Mini Kits last year you do not need to sign up again. 

We hope that spreading out the kits throughout the course of the year will do two things: (1) help keep you continue to connect to your word by giving you products you can use as you make your word visible in your album throughout the year, and (2) spread out the cost over the course of the year rather than a bigger purchase all at once (since we totally get that this is a busy time for spending).   

The Mini Kits will ship for $1 for domestic customers/$5 for international customers.

    I’m surprised to see the black rimmed circle label circles in the April stories by the Month kit when they were just in the February kit. It would be nice to have different items, or at least different colors, when the kits are so close together. Thanks!

      I agree, I was also surprised. Although black is useful, other colours to coordinate with the kit would be more fun if we have to have things repeat.

    Is it not possible to purchase the digital version of the story kit (currently a subscriber to the physical kit)... not seeing that option in the add-ons this month. I will be super disappointed if that option is discontinued!

      If you are a physical kit subscriber you should have access to add on the digital! Checking to see if that was a glitch.

    Love the tag die for the chipboard! Was the die cutting set that goes with the story stamp sold out? I'm not seeing it offered this month.
