12 Days til Retirement +15% OFF Select Stamps

There are only 12 days left to get retiring Stampin' Up! product--some of it up to 40% OFF. Click HERE for full details on ALL retiring product.

In honor of their retirement, I am also personally offering 15% OFF the retiring stamps that I happen to own. Click HERE for the full list of my personal sale stamps. I have been featuring some of my personal sale stamp sets on my blog over the last few days, and today I have chosen the All Holidays (stamp set pictured below).

As you can see, there are many holidays and occasions represented in this set. In the first sample, I even took the Father's Day greeting, the Kind & Dear greeting, and the Halloween greeting to create a "Happy Fall" greeting. Really, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't grab this set before it's gone. [Click on any sample to see the original post, which usually includes supplies and instructions, if any.]

Be sure to head on over to my ONLINE STORE, and shop for these and other stamp sets on the Last-Chance Lists.

Sneak Peek Pennant Parade & Punch

I've been yakking about the retiring products every day because I haven't wanted you to miss out on getting something you want before it's gone. But I'd also like to take a moment to give you a little Sneak Peek of some cool upcoming new products:

Oooh, look at the pennants...aren't they so cute?? Notice the neighbor kids' playhouse behind the card? That just makes it even more fun!

This card features new products that you will be able to purchase July 1st. It includes the Pennant Parade stamp set, and the Petite Pennants Punch. The punch has two images on it--the scalloped pennant, as well as a smaller triangle, which I layered onto each scalloped pennant punch on this card. The pennant images in the Pennant Parade stamp set can be rotated to become Christmas trees, and there is even a little tree trunk stand you can stamp underneath. The set also includes several greetings, so you can use it for the holidays, and all year. The "wish big" greeting is perfect for birthdays!

There are also a couple of new In Colors featured on this card, namely Island Indigo (the teal color) and Pool Party (the lighter blue). I really like these colors together, and especially on a neutral background because they can be used for a guy or a girl. I'll post more about the upcoming new In Colors later, just keep in mind that pictures hardly do them justice. They are awesome in person :-)

And I want to point out the Early Espresso Baker's Twine stringing the pennants across the card--you can order that right now, and let me just say that I think we'll be seeing more of this twine throughout the year (hint, hint). To bring in a little coordination with the twine, I inked and sponged the "wish big" greeting with Early Espresso ink. The background of the card is my favorite neutral color that goes with everything: Crumb Cake.

Stampin' Up! Retiring Products

Until JUNE 30th or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, get your favorite Retiring Stampin' Up! products. And some of them are even DISCOUNTED UP TO 40% OFF!

Here are some handy PDF product lists and shopping links:

• SHOP Last-Chance Wood-Mount Stamps
• SHOP Last-Chance Clear-Mount Stamps
• Download the Last-Chance stamps PDF
• SHOP Last-Chance ACCESSORIES
• SHOP Last-Chance DEFINITELY DECORATIVE
• Download the Last-Chance Definitely Decorative PDF

Now, let me explain how this works...the wood and clear mount stamps and Definitely Decorative vinyl products are manufactured by Stampin' Up!, so you'll be able to purchase those items all the way through June 30th. However, Accessories will be sold WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, so you will need to shop for them in my ONLINE STORE to guarantee availability. (That's why there is no PDF for Accessories, because there's no way to mark them in real-time as they go out of stock!)  And one last note, please do not freak out when you see the 12x12 card stock in the retiring shopping sections--it is only the 6 smooth sheets, 6 textured sheets assortment package that is retiring, not the 12x12 size.

This is a HUGE deal--get 'em while they're hot...and get 'em before they're gone! I have seen the new catalog that starts JULY 1st, so I will help you out and point out a few specific stamps and/or sets that I think you may kick yourself for not getting, if you don't do it before June 30th...because there's not really anything similar coming into the new catalog:

I Need a Shower.

Okay, so add to the list of recent challenges: water heater broke last night, I guess right around or just after dinner. We are currently renting, and as such, gratefully do NOT have to pay the ginormous bill for replacement--but we do have to wait until sometime tomorrow to get a new water heater installed. Gross, I need a shower. Sadly, both my kids need one worse than I.

So, we're off to partially fill a tub with cold water, use the tea kettle to add hot water until it's reasonably warm, then bathe and drain...times THREE...until Blake gets home, then it may be done a fourth time. In fact, I'll insist on a fourth time. I don't care if he's a grown man, he's taking a bath cuz I said so...lol! Yeah, this is bordering on TMI (too much information) but I figured it might provide you some amusement, since it's not affecting you!

Until I get back to post again, please check out my newly revamped ONLINE STORE for June specials and promotions, including retiring stamp sets, accessories, and decorative products that will be gone forever June 30th, some of which are available at a discount!  This is your Last Chance to snag some items you may have been eyeballing for a while now.
