We have tried to anticipate demand for this release to the best of our abilities, but it was difficult to make calculations since there were so many $5 sets this month. If there is anything that is a quick sell-out tonight, we wanted to let you know that we have our manufacturer standing by to get to work first thing tomorrow morning in case we are in need of anything. We thank you in advance as we work through inventory predictions for these inexpensive sets and with a little luck, there will be enough of everything for everybody!
Thank you so much for visiting throughout this exciting countdown and we look forward to seeing all of you later tonight!
Don’t know how your do it, Nicole. You and your staff have covered EVERYTHING and try to anticipate any scenario possible….GREAT JOB, PTI!!!
Thanks for a great contest! Now to go figure out how that time translates here in Arizona! No daylight savings here!

Gak, I’m SO stinkin’ excited for this one! Making out my wishlist now, getting longer with every breath I take.
Anywho, hubby has been warned, and I’m ready to P-A-R-T-A-Y!!!
ohhh… you’re going to make me stay up til midnight… LOL!!!
I’m so excited. I can’t wait 😀
I’m sooooo very excited for the release! I can’t wait for the reveal….then to receive my order and start making a bunch of boys/men cards =)
I’m going to try and join the fun tonight!
This is such an awesome and unique release!!! I can’t wait to get out of my box and play with something new!! Thank you for all you do for your customers!! PTI is absolutely awesome!
I love all the male sets. So long in coming, but definitely worth the wait. They will be timeless!
I just love, love, love the Skater Dude set. I must have it 🙂
The most influential male figure in my life was definitely my dad although my husband is a close second because he is so much like my dad. Both my parents were working parents but dad always got home early and we would cook dinner together and work on my homework. He is such a wise soul, who taught me how to enjoy life, respect others, and most of all accept and embrace others for who they are. Great skills and ideas that I appreciate to this day – and hope to impart to my own son and daughter! What a month – love it all!!
Just wanted to say thanks for an awesome release. I really love so many things this month.
Absolutely Beautiful release!! 🙂 Love everything new! I enjoy watching for new releases month to month! Thanks for the contest!
Hugs!
Ash-
Love everything I see tonight. Great job everyone! So excited to see the Anniversary set too. When do we get a sneek peak? Blessings-
I fall in love each and every month…PTI rocks!
Great release, Nichole! I, for one, am so grateful for all of the $5 sets. I know that for you it probably would have been easier to make the Boy Basics into one stamp set, but I REALLY appreciated it being several small sets. I bought the younger themed sets now since my boys are 2,3, & 5. A few years from now when they are older I will come back and get the older themed sets. LOVE it! And, with my budget, the $5 sets allow me to get some of the other things, like felt, that are on my list as well. THANK YOU!
