Time to Say Good-bye

Another Fabulous Friday. Thank you for sharing your day with us. This week we are focusing on some of the great retiring sets. I'm sure you have one, two, or many on the list that you will need to get before the end of the catalog sales period. Be sure to contact your demonstrator to order your favorites.

Karla Anders used the adorable Check You Out stamp set. This one was only around for a year but it will surely be missed. Check out her blog for more details.

Debbie Naylor's beautiful card uses the Flourishing Phrases stamp set. It's packed with great sayings for both the inside and the outside of your creations. Plus the flowers that come with it are perfect to make beautiful cards. Be sure to visit Debbie's blog for more details. 

Rachel Yurkanin also used the Check You Out stamp set. It's such a perfect set to make quick thank you cards for teachers. They always need more thank you cards. A teacher can never have too many. Be sure to visit her blog for more details. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Debbie, Karla, and Rachel

Last Chance

It is the LAST CHANCE to purchase from the current Occasions and Annual catalogs.  

Sales end June 3rd!

 

There are so many wonderful things in these catalogs, and the SIS designers are sharing a few of our favorite things that you don't want to miss.  Be sure to connect with your Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator to get your last chance products right away.  

Karla is sharing this beautiful card featuring the Forever Lovely suite in the Occasions catalog.  Her color combination is lovely, which was obviously inspired by the colorful flowers in the DSP.

Here is another project from Karla.  This one is an adorable gift box.  This project uses a combination of products in both catalogs.  Be sure to check out Karla's blog for more information.

Debbie's project makes us wish for more!  This is a stunning card, simple and vibrant.  Hop on over to Debbie's blog here for all the details.

And last up is Jennifer's summer card featuring one of the hostess sets in the Annual catalog.  Hostess stamp sets can only be earned, not purchased, and are only available during the catalog sales period.  These never carry over into the next year...better get yours before it's too late!

Thank you so much for spending some time with us today.  We hope that you have either gotten everything on your wish list already, or this post inspired you to reach out to your Demonstrator to place that last chance order!  Have a blessed weekend and we will see you back here next week!

Saying good-bye to some of our favorite stamp sets

  Happy Friday and thank you for visiting us today!  This week we decided to feature some of our favorite retiring stamp sets in our projects to give them one last hurrah before they say good-bye on June 3rd.  If you haven't seen the retiring product list (some accessories are 25%, 40% and 60% off!), you can view it HERE.  Be sure and place an order with your demonstrator to get the preferred pricing before they're gone!!

  First up is my thank you card featuring the Day of Gratitude stamp set.  I've been making so many cards with spring flowers lately that it was nice to use a fall color palette for a change.  For all the details on this project including which technique I used, please visit my blog here.

  Next we have Karla's project...

 

She made a sour cream container with that cute stamp set Aviary. Directions and more pictures can be seen on her blog.

  Rachel was called in to sub at school today so will be dropping her project in later this afternoon so be sure and check back! (Thanks for being patient with me today everyone).  Here is the promised project.  I used the Aviary set. I love it and am sad that it is going.  Also, the elegant lines embossing folder and that is retiring.  Head over to my blog for more information.

  Thanks so much for visiting with us this week!  We thank you for your continued support of our blog and hope we have inspired you.  Have a wonderful weekend!

Retiring Stamp sets for Fabulous Friday

It happens every year....Stampin' Up! goes through the current catalog and retires about a 1/3 of the stamp sets and accessories. This year it seems early for this to be happening huh? Well, that's because the new catalog is coming out a month earlier than it has in the past. Just one of the many exciting changes that are happening at SU!
    The retirement stamp set list was posted last week and the accessory retirement list was posted this week. It's my (Karla) week to pick the theme here at the Sisters in Stamping and I picked Retiring Stamp sets and Accessories. First up is Debbie--

Debbie used 2 things on her scrap book page that are leaving the catalog. Can you spot them?? Find out if your right by going to Debbie's blog.

Here is my card for this week--

 

 I have posted a picture on my blog with the book mark out of the slit that I cut in the front.



Next up is Jacque's card--

 A fun Birthday card using a retiring Hostess stamp set. She used 2 things that are retiring too! Find out all of the details on Jacque's blog.


Lastly we have Rachel's card--

Rachel used a retiring set and a set from the Occasions Mini. Last day to order from that is Monday April 30, 2012. Here is a link to her blog so you can go over and check it out.

Well that's it for the Sisters this week. Remember that the last day to purchase retiring sets is May 31, 2012--earlier than in the past years-- so put your wish list together and contact you Stampin' Up! demonstrator today!
