Without any further adieu, here it is:

THE RETIRED LIST – (SORTABLE EXCEL FILE)

The days leading up to the Retired List are usually full of anticipation and speculation for me.  When the list finally posts, I usually curl up on the couch with a red ink pen, my catalog and the list.  I go thru each page, item by item, and carefully put a red “R” (for Retired) next to each item that is retiring.  (I also put a black check mark next to every item as I purchase it so I know what I have and what I don’t!)

This way I can see what I have that is retiring (you might find this soon in the Yard Sale page of my blog), and what I don’t have that I’ll really miss if it retires and I don’t have it.

The latter will cause me to spring into action, and order that item before it is gone.   I’ve let that happen once or twice and I’m still bummed by the things I’ve missed because I waited too long!  Grab a sponge to catch my tears. 

Once an item goes on the Retired List, availability is while supplies last.  Last year, the retiring In Colors sold out within days.  I fully anticipate that happening here.  If you want it, get it while you can or you’ll be crying too!

So when you hop online to start shopping for the ‘must-have’ items from the retired list, don’t forget about the Clearance Rack (recently updated) and the Weekly Deals either (new today!).  That way you’ll score some really good deals all the way around.  Don’t forget the New Items either.

What is the item you are going to miss the most?  Leave me a comment and let me know.  Then share with me what item you really want from the Retiring List that you don’t already have.

Enjoy shopping the retired list.

Only 1 day left for the biggest sale of the year!  Sale-A-Bration ends March 31st.  This has been one of the biggest Sale-A-Brations since I’ve been involved with Stampin’ Up!  Due to the fact that the Blendabilities line was discontinued, several embossing folders were added to the offering of products that could be earned FREE with a $50 order.    I think the array of products offered was incredible.

My favorites have to be the Lotus Blossom stamp set the Irresistibly Yours Specialty DSP

the In Color Accessory Packand the Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum Stack.

You can get these (and more for FREE) but once we flip the calendar to April, it’s too late.  You will NEVER be able to get these products.   Click here to shop and choose 1 free items with every $50 purchase.

Thanks for helping to make this Sale-A-Bration a great one 🙂

I have this funny thing about combining different shades of reds, or even red & orange.  So when I saw the color challenge for the Paper Players was Calypso Coral, Real Red, & Black, my first thought was, ooh, I don’t think I am going to like this.  But that thought only lasted a fraction of second, quickly followed by the thought that the Stacked with Love Specialty Designer Paper was Real Red, Crisp Canteloupe and Calypso Coral along with Black & White.  Fear and doubt were quickly replaced with thoughts of easy peasy!

I love when Stampin’ Up! makes things so easy.   I knew exactly what I wanted to make too, and it wasn’t a card.  

I made a banner using Real Red, Calypso Coral, Black and White.  Here is a close-up shot of the banner.

The solid color cardstock forms the backdrop for the pennants.  I cut Real Red and Calypso Coral into 2″ x 3″ triangles.  And cut the little letters from Basic Black cardstock using the Little Letters Thinlits dies.

The Stacked with Love DSP gave me the fun part!  I used the 1-1/4″ Scalloped Circle Punch to create little backdrops for my letters and little banners for the spacer pennants.

I just love how the patterned paper pulls all those colors together so beautifully and makes easy work for me to play along with the Paper Players Color Challenge this week!

If you’d like to see what the Paper Players did with this color challenge, head on over.   Challenge yourself and play along.  I’d love to see what you create with this color combination!.

If you’d like to order any of the supplies I used to make this banner, you can click here to shop on line.  Don’t forget, with Sale-A-Bration in full swing, you can earn a free item for every $50 you purchase.

When I opened the Occasions catalog for the first time, I was hoping for a really nice Valentine’s Day stamp set.  I have to be truthful, I really didn’t like the You Plus Me stamp set because I didn’t know what the word ‘twitterpated’ meant.  I really didn’t want this stamp set because of that.  I loved the font but not the word.  As a matter of fact, I bought the paper during the pre-order but not the stamp set.

And then, I got the bright idea to look up the definition of that word, and when I did, I fell in love the word!  So if you are like me and don’t know the meaning of the word twitterpated, here is a vocabulary lesson for you too.

Welcome to the last Pals Blog Hop of 2014. This month we want to help you start your holiday wish list by sharing projects featuring our favorite Stampin’ Up! papers, stamps, tools and accessories. Get your wish list ready as you move along through the blog hop.

You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Patti MacLeith www.papercraftsbypatti.com on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the project.

When I first saw the 2014 Holiday Catalog, I pretty much wanted the whole catalog!  I found myself marking my catalog, not by products that I wanted, but by pages!  Seriously, I wanted everything on page 5 and page 43, and so on!  (And I did actually buy almost everything in that catalog too, by the way!)  But I knew that Ornamental Pine was the set that I would use to make most of the Christmas cards that I would mail out.

Here is my most favorite card I’ve made yet using the Ornamental Pine Stamp Set

I started with a card base of Soft Sky and stamped the pine needle image in Lost Lagoon.  I added a Lost Lagoon banner that was cropped using the Project Life framelits to balance out the Lost Lagoon color on the card.

Then I thought I wanted to step up the card a notch; so I recreated the card but this time added a  Lost Lagoon panel.  Here is my stepped up card:

What do you think?  The little panel really adds a lot, doesn’t it?   A simple one-layer card is always nice but I really think adding a layer of a contrasting color just adds a whole dimension and really makes it classy.

Here they are side by side so you can really see the difference:

Nothing wrong with the 1-layer card, but the added layer just makes the card look more finished and polished, at least that’s what I think, and I’m sure you’ll agree because I know that great minds think alike 🙂

But the jewels on this card are the pinecones.   I heat embossed the pinecones in Pewter embossing powder onto Whisper White card stock.  My heat embossing tool is one of my favorite tools.   I used my paper snips (another tool I couldn’t live without!  – proof that all scissors are NOT created equal) to fussy cut the pinecones.  The pewter pinecones and the ‘snow’ resting gently on some of the pine needles add just enough sparkle without going into glitter overload.  I know you really want to see the sparkle up close so here it is:

Yes, the snow capped pinecones look so real you don’t believe that I stamped them.  You think I went outside, picked some pinecones from my pine trees, don’t you?  Nope, they are stamped, heat embossed, fussy cut & popped up on a stampin’ dimensional.

See the snow glistening on the pine needles?  I used my white chalk marker to draw snow on some of the pine needles and then added a little bit of Dazzling Details to select snow.

How did I get such a crisp white sentiment on the Lost Lagoon cardstock?  Heat embossing.  Great for putting light colors on darker colored cardstock.

Because I chose to make a square card, and a fairly large square at 5″ x 5″, my Envelope Punch Board is another favorite tool of mine.  It makes simple work of making custom sized envelopes so my cards are no longer limited to a standard size envelope, leaving me free to create whatever works best for me and the stamp set I’m working with.  How liberating is that?

To recap: Ornamental Pine is my favorite stamp set from the Holiday Catalog and the heat embossing tool, the paper snips and Envelope Punch Board are my favorite, must-have, can’t live without tools.  If you don’t already have them, be sure to put them on your wish list.  Then let your friends & family know that you have a wish list, and let them know that your wish list can be fulfilled right here!

BTW, I’ve seen the 2015 Occasions Catalog AND the Sale-A-Bration catalog and all I can say is you better have lots of paper;  you’re wish list is going to be very long!  The good news is that the more you buy from the Occasions catalog, the more you’ll get in FREE items from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.   If you are a regular customer of mine, than your catalog is on its way to you.  If you are not, but you’d like to be, just contact me. I’d be happy to be your demonstrator if you don’t already have a relationship with another demonstrator.

So now, please tell me which card you like best, and if you enjoy heat embossing as much as I do, or if you’ve never heat embossed at all.  Then hop along to see the rest of the projects from our amazing talented Pals.    The next stop is Maggie Mata at www.MaggieMadeCards.com on the Pals Blog Hop!

Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you in 2015.

I just absolutely love the monochromatic color scheme for the Colour Me! Color Challenge of Pistachio Pudding.  Now the challenge allows you to use any Neutral or Skin Tone color along with Pistachio Pudding but I really wanted to use just Pistachio Pudding & White.  Our DSP Paper Stacks in the 2013-2015 In Colors has several patterns of DSP  and I knew I could combine several patterns and solid cardstock to create a pleasing end result.

Now for the layout part, hmm.  Well, the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge provided that!  When I first saw this sketch I knew I wanted to use the Polaroid picture framelit from the On Film Framelits dies set #132969 for the layer that was offset.  For the sentiment I chose Sending Good Thoughts Your Way from the Perfect Pennants stamp set 133230.  I used the arrows framelits, also from the On Film Framelits dies , to crop out some Pistachio Pudding DSP.   A Pistachio Pudding sequin  & stretch ruffle ribbon (now retired) provided the finishing touches.

This card is headed down south to a Paper Crafting friend who is recuperating from surgery.  I hope the soft colors will help convey my wishes for a complete recovery during her post-surgery rehab!

Please tell me what you think of my card and how I used a color challenge and sketch challenge to create it!  Do you like the way the embossed card stock & different patterns of DSP work together to create a pleasing coordinated look?  Thanks for your comments.  I love to hear from you.

If you would like to purchase any of these products, please know that I strive to give the best customer service possible when you choose to place your order with me!  I value the confidence you place in me when you choose to order from me.  Feel free to click on any of the links above or just click here to go directly to my on-line store where you can shop securely  from the comfort of your home & have your order shipped directly to you.

Come back Wednesday and join me and few of my Paper Crafting Pals for a Blog Hop showcasing our favorite School Tools!   I’m sure the Big Shot will be taking center stage as most crafter’s favorite tool!.  Come see what the Pals will be making with all of their tools!

 Welcome to the June Pals Blog Hop. This month we are excited to show off new Stampin’ Up! products from the just released 2014-15 annual catalog and idea book. We hope you find great inspiration from the projects. Get your wish list ready!

You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Deb Simonis on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

One of my favorite new products in the new 2014/15 Catalog is the new In-Color Collection!  I am learning to love all of the new colors.  I immediately gravitated towards Blackberry Bliss and Hello, Honey, and the beautiful combination those two colors made.  I’m now really learning to appreciate Lost Lagoon and it really stands well on its’ own.  It really needs just a pop of color, just an accent, to make this color shine.   This card shows off how beautiful Lost Lagoon is.

The image is the stamp “Blended Bloom“.  This large flower bloom is so versatile; it’s a perfect stamp for watercoloring, or coloring with our new Blendabilities markers, but it also is a great stamp on it’s own.  I chose to stamp this image and the sentiment in Lost Lagoon ink on whisper white cardstock and layer it on top of a piece of DSP from the Moonlight DSP paper stack.

The new 3/8″ stitched satin ribbon is so lovely; it’s soft & silky but stands up to hold a bow and knots so beautifully.  The ribbon adorning this card is also Lost Lagoon and it is available in all 5 of the new in-colors.    A little accent of Hello, Honey and a rhinestone jewel provide just the right accent and pop of color.

Do you recognize the sentiment?  If you subscribe to My Paper Pumpkin then you will.  It was part of the “Hey, Man” May kit.  If you are not a subsciber to the Paper Pumpkin kit, then what are you waiting for?  This is the monthly craft kit that comes to your doorstep each month, providing you all the supplies you need to make a project each month.   You can get your magical paper crafting escape right here and join the fun each month.  Click here for all the deets on My Paper Pumpkin.

Thanks to the talented Nicole Watt for creating the badge & buttons for this blog hop.  The badge and buttons were created in MDS using the new Best Birthday Yet Digital Ensemble (136520).

Welcome to the May Pals Blog Hop. This is the first hop on our new day – the 2nd Wednesday of the month. Before we celebrate the release of the new Stampin’ Up! catalog next month, we want to take time to say goodbye to our favorite retiring products. This month we are showcasing projects that feature stamps or accessories that are retiring along with the 2013-14 Idea Book & Catalog on June 4th.

You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Jackie Diediker at Stampin’ Jackie  Stop #4 on the Pals Hop.   If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog.

  Good-bye, Hello!  Thanks for stopping by My Stampin’ Space!  Today’s project features a Stamp Set and colors that we are saying “Good-bye” to.  So, good-bye “Hello”.  

The sentiment comes from the stamp set “My Friend” which will be retiring.  I just love the swirls in the lettering!  Who wouldn’t enjoy getting a card in the mail with such a pretty, swirly ‘hello’.  I heat embossed the sentiment in Early Espresso on top of a watercolor technique background of Midnight Muse, Gumball Green, & Summer Starfruit.  All of these colors are 2012-2014 In-Colors which means they are retiring also.  A piece of Summer Starfruit baker’s twine adds another pop of color.  The panel was popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals onto a piece of Midnight Muse Cardstock.  The card base measures 5-1/2″ x 3″ which means it needs a custom envelope!  The envelope punch board turned a piece of In-Color DSP into a custom envelope in a jiffy! 

I made the same panel again but this time, I placed it on a Gumball Green card base.  Which do you like better?

I love these three colors together;  blue, green & yellow are color families that just pair so well together.   Now, I have to admit that I did not like Summer Starfruit when I first saw it.  But the first time I paired it with Gray, my mind was changed in a heartbeat!  I just love Summer Starfruit and Basic Gray together.

Tell me what you think when you see these colors together.    Don’t you just love it?  I’m so sorry to see Summer Starfruit go!   “So Sorry” is another stamp set that is retiring also.  I’m also sorry to say ‘good-bye” to this stamp set too.  It’s been my go-to stamp set when I’ve needed to make a sympathy card, a get-well card, or just plain apologize for being a blockhead!

So, there are many things that we are saying good-bye to, but you can still get these items while supplies last before they retire forever at the end of the month.

Check the retired lists here:  (Heads Up:  Many items have already sold out. )

My husband surprised me this past weekend.  Our daughter’s wedding reception was on Saturday.  Friday night my husband told me to pack a bag, that we weren’t coming home after the reception!  He wouldn’t tell me where, but told me we would spending the rest of the weekend alone, together.  He even made arrangements for our son and my mother-in-law to get home from the reception, and for someone to stay with our son for the weekend!

So after the reception, he whisked me off to a beautiful bed and breakfast nestled in the countryside of Northeastern PA, in the beautiful town of Montrose.  Now I may be a wee bit biased here, because the Fieldstone Farms Bed & Breakfast is owned by my husband’s cousin.  But that aside, this place is magnificent!  Nestled on 135 acres, the view out the window was of the barn & horse pastures.  A huge pond was the view from the other side of the house.   Birds were flocking to the feeders (yes, I’m a bird-nerd!).  Squirrels were content at the ground below.  The cats kept watch from the windows.  The home itself is quite impressive with the cherry floors & doors, crafted from trees felled right on the property.  The attention to detail in every area of the home’s construction were evident, as in the decor.

Kim made us an awesome breakfast!  (I always take pictures of food, I don’t know why – maybe it’s just because I love to eat and enjoy food that’s as good to look at as it is to eat!)

If you are in Northeast Pennsylvania and want a great place to stay out in the country, where you can get away from it all, this is the place to be!

I did mail a handmade card to Kim & Frank to thank them for a wonderful stay.  But, as I’m writing this post, I’m thinking that I should make a thank you card for my hubby for such a nice surprise getaway!   Stay tuned, I’ll get to work on that and let you know what I create.

But in the meantime, don’t you think it was just so wonderful of my hubby to make all the arrangements, including care for our son, and so many little details to surprise me with an impromtu weekend getaway?  He’s so like that.  Just one of the many reasons why, even after 25 years, I keep falling in love with him over & over!

Thanks for letting me share a little bit about my hubby with you.  Now go stamp something for someone you love; it’ll brighten their day!

Happy Stampin’,

Nancy
