Studio Calico, so named because the kit includes neutral cardstock (like a calico cat) is a subscription kit club. Members subscribe for a minimum of six months. Subscriptions can be cancelled before six months but this will incur a fee. The monthly cost for a subscription is $29.50 but you can also purchase a kit as a one off at a cost of $34.50.
