Saying Goodbye to Some Old Favorites

Have you seen Stampin' Up!'s retirement list yet? I look forward to seeing this list each year with mixed emotions of dread and excitement. It's always sad to have to say goodbye to some of my most loved stamps and accessories each year...but it is also exciting as I start to anticipate the upcoming release of the new catalog; wondering what will be replacing the items that are leaving.

This year, a few of the sets I will really miss are Field FlowersEn Francais and Happy Day. Unbeknownst to me, I must have been channeling the upcoming retiring list when I created this card the other day.

I had a feeling that perhaps Field Flowers would be on the list, but the other two were kind of surprising to me. I love the swirl image from Happy Day and have used it so many times as a pretty accent on my cards and scrapbook pages.

Do you have any favorites on the list? If so...get them early while they are still available, and get FREE SHIPPING besides!

    Hi Lynn, this is a gorgeous card! Can you tell me what color ink you used on the hardwood stamp? And the paper you stamped it on? Thanks so much! Karen

    I love that look on the wood. I can't get mine to look like that. The Whisper White does not show up as good as yours.

    Lovely card!

  4. Thanks Susan! Have you reinked your White pad recently? That should help.
