Retiring Stamp Sets

Wow... It has been entirely too long since I have posted! Please forgive me. I've got some new cards that I'd like to post too, but I haven't had the time to do it!

Well, it's that time of the year again, it's time for the old stamps to head off into the sunset in preparation for new stamps. Please let me know if you can't download or pull up the lists of retiring stamps. I'd be happy to email them to you!

And here are the retiring accessories... Keep in mind that if they have a star (asterisk) on the far right hand they are not actually retiring, just being reconfigured.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

The Latest 5 for $5 Cards

I'm sorry the pictures are not the best quality, I didn't have my regular camera with me, so these are from my phone! I just love this new stamp set called Bring On The Cake, it has great sayings as well as some pictures intertwined with wording. It's a great set. You may want to think about investing in it!

This card was made with Basic Gray, Blushing Bride, and Whisper White cardstock, Basic Gray and Blushing Bride ink. All stamps are found in the Bring On The Cake set!

I actually really, really like this card. It's very simple and it was pretty easy for everyone to put together. I used Marina Mist, Very Vanilla cardstock, Elegant Soirée Designer Series Paper, Marina Mist ink, Always Elegant and Bring On The Cake stamp sets.

I just love this card layout... It's probably familiar because I used it for the Things I Love set some time ago, but I just love the layout! I used Melon Mambo, Pink Pirouette, Basic Black, and Natural White cardstock, Basic Black and Melon Mambo ink, Basic Rhinestones, Simply Said and Afterthoughts (Hostess)stamp sets.

Here is another CASE'd card, the creator I copied from is Renae Lyon. She did a beautiful job making this card look SO elegant! It is just Basic Black and Whisper White Cardstock, Basic Black ink, Black Satin ribbon, and of course it uses the Elements of Style stamp set!

I CASE'd this card that Zeva Cho made, hers was a 4x4 card, and I just made this one a standard 1/4 page. This card was/is incredibly simple, and a great two step stamping set! I just used Naturals White cardstock, celery grosgrain ribbon, Concord Crush, Pear Pizzaz, and Peach Parfait ink.
