Retiring Accessories List

Wednesday, 25 April 2012

The list of retiring accessories available from today until May 31st BUT only while supplies last. You can either send me your order by email or place your online order in my store. Don't delay or you may miss out!

There are some changes coming with the stamp pads and refills, but don't worry, these are a NEW design. The colours aren't retiring so you don't have to replace them. The Stampin' Write markers will still be available but not all of the colours and not as individual pens. They will be reconfigured into groups of pens. Make sure to check out the list and order any of these individual markers while you can.

The other big change will be with the 12 x 12 cardstock. Textured card stock will no longer be offered and many single colour packages will no longer be offered. Don't miss out on these!

Several items are on sale! Check out the My Digital Studio content discs offered at 60% off - grab this fast if you own the My Digital Studio program. Amazing deal!

You can also view the list on my store at this link.

View the entire retired list.

Note, there are two incorrect items on the Retiring Accessories List

208	108360	Craft Scissors
208	103579	Paper Snips

These are not retiring and therefore will not be offered at discounted prices.

Happy Stamping

Happy Easter everyone!

Even though I haven't been blogging on a regular basis, I have been busy creating. I belong to Beta Sigma Phi sorority and for the past year I have been City Council President. I will be giving each of my executive a set of coasters, some tea and a glass magnet all wrapped in a set of boxes that Pam Thurber showed us how to make at Leadership. Stay tuned for pictures - I'm just putting the finishing touches on the coasters.

In the mean time, it's Easter and I have family coming for dinner tomorrow night. I thought I would make a little something for each of them so here's what I came up with. I learned to make the "bags" in a Big Shot Club with my upline Alison - I love the combinations of paper you can use and it's so easy with the Fancy Favor Bigz XL Die (Item 115965). I'm still using the Everyday Enchantment DSP from the Sale-a-Bration catalogue (I love this paper and am very sad to see it go!)

For this card, I've used the Easter Blossoms stampset that was available in last years Occasions mini along with the Twitterpated DSP from this years Occasions mini and our in colours - Blushing Bride and Wisteria Wonder. Of course a few pearls and ruffled ribbon to embellish.

Now, for my husband! It's hard to do a masculine card when you want to use spring colours and ribbons and pearls - it's just that time of year, but not for him! So I decided to make a pinwheel - seemed spring like, but also a little masculine. Again with the Everyday Enchantment DSP and an In Colour brad. I think he'll like it.

I promise to post pictures of all of my coasters and boxes once I have them finished.

Happy Easter everyone and thanks for stopping by!
