Hi Stampin' Friends! It's time to say goodbye to the Faith in Nature Stamp Set. I've always liked this stamp set because of its simplicity. I decided to make two cards using two of images in the set. I used the pear in one coloring it with the So Saffron Stampin' Write Marker for the pear and Pear Pizzazz Stampin' Write Marker for the leaves. I also used the Framed… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I am so excited to give you a sneak peek at one of the new stamp sets from the 2012/2012 Catalog! It's called Layered Labels. And no I did not have to cut it out because there is a corresponding package of dies called Framelits, Apothecary Accents. The dies in this group were designed to cut images from World Treasures (another new stamp set) and the… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends! The Simply Soft Stamp Set was used for today's post. It's retiring on 31 May 2012 so if you like it, you'll have to place a qualifying order for it – you cannot purchase it because it's a hostess stamp set. It's one of my favorie sets and I will be sorry to see it go. The lovely Simply Soft Stampin' Rewards exclusive stamp set is ideal for… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I ended up looking at the new catalog this morning. This old lady could not stay awake for the unveiling at midnight (MT), besides, I heard it didn't really go online until about 2 am. It's everything it promises to be and more! Love the new layout and how they grouped tools/embellishments together such as Heat Tool, Versamark, Stampin' Buddy, Emboss Powder – they are all on… Read More »

Based on the preorder items that are available for demonstrators to preorder, I will absolutely love it! My order of new items should be in on Wednesday so I'll have new things… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I love, love the Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper and decided to use it for today's card. I'll miss it but I am sure that Stampin' Up! will have some equally gorgeous new DSP for us to drool over! Even though the coordinated color, Marina Mist, was listed in the catalog, I decided to use Baja Breeze because it seem to match a lot better. The pearls… Read More »

Hi Stampin' Friends The Happiness Shared Stamp Set is on the Retiring Stamps List. I think it's one of the prettiest stamps in the catalog and just lends itself to watercoloring. If you love it as much as I do, you will want to buy it before it goes away on 31 May 2012! Click here to buy it through my Stampin' Store or you can call me at (479)… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends So how many of your stamp sets are retiring? I didn't do too bad – only 33 of mine are retiring. I was so glad to see that Lovely as a Tree is staying and I think it will be available in clear mount in the next catalog! I'm sorry to see Sincere Salutations go but I've started using the My Digital Studio more and more for… Read More »
