Welcome to a monthly overview post of our subscription + shop releases!
One change to let you know about that's starting with this month's release is that our Add On period will now happen from the 10th when the kits go live at noon EST through midnight on the 12th. You will now be charged for your subscriptions + Add On's on the 13th of each month. The classrooms will now open on the 13th.
Let's dive in to this month's new releases!

QUARTERLY STORYTELLER KIT (PHYSICAL KIT + CLASS)

Details about this kit:
Four kits per year releasing in January, April, July, and October. When you sign up you are committing to the four kits (or however many are left in the year).
Includes classroom + content from Ali and contributors that will be spread out over three months.
Shipping is $1 domestic + $5 international. You can also shop the Add On subscriber section and add to your box during the Add On period for no additional shipping (on the 10th + 11th each month).
Physical kit subscribers can add the digital kit for $14.99 during the Add On period.
We are unable to offer a "skip" option with our quarterly kits.

QUARTERLY STORYTELLER CLASS (DIGITAL KIT + CLASS)
If you are looking for a digital only subscription that gives you access to digital Storyteller kit and the classroom content then the Storyteller Class is for you.

This is $24.99 and is a quarter to quarter commitment (you don't have to commit to all four kits but if you want to cancel you need to reach out to our Customer Service Team).

SIGN UP HERE FOR STAMPS ARE FUN
This subscription does not include class content but will be supported through blog posts sharing ideas for using the stamp sets each month. Some months the stamp set may be aligned with the theme of the Storyteller Kit but mostly they will be a fun, random assortment of words and shapes. This monthly physical stamp subscription includes the digital version of the stamp.
Here's the pricing for this monthly subscription:
$20.99 - 12 month commitment
$23.99 - 6 month commitment
$28.99 - month commitment
*Digital version of the stamp is included in subscription price.
Let's play together!
ALSO NEW THIS MONTH | ALPHAS + NUMBERS ARE AWESOME + 3x4 STAMP

We've got a new Alphas Are Awesome (#34) and this year we are also offering a coordinating 4x6 Numbers Are Awesome set (#13).
Physical kit subscribers can add these to their box for no additional shipping. They are available to Add On (for physical kit subscribers) and are also now available in the shop.
"THE BASICS" MINI KIT (FORMERLY OUR ONE LITTLE WORD® MINI KIT)

Everyone loves a good basic! Stamp on them. Write on them. Add photos to them. Repeat them in a page design. Add them to a journal.
We've decided to make a change to our One Little Word® Mini Kit and change it to be called "The Basics." Going forward the kit will include items without words in order for you to customize them in the ways that makes sense for you and your own documenting (maybe in One Little Word® or maybe in your other documenting adventures or maybe a mix of everything).
Based on the changes we are also able to reduce the price of this subscription to $19.99 per quarter. You'll see the OLW name on the outside of the first two kit envelopes.

Love that the February kit is not overtly 'Valentines', thank you!

Hi Ali, all the kits look fab as always ❤️. Are the kits currently in the warehouse now and ready for dispatch? Also are you expecting any shipping delays like last year? Cheers Angie

Hi! All the kits shown in the post above are in the warehouse and ready to ship. Unfortunately we have no way of knowing what the future might hold - last year was really challenging - but as of right now it’s all on track.

Are you going to be doing a Story Play series again this year? I loved doing them in a WITL style through the lense of the kit’s theme.
