Breaking Up is Hard to Do!

Tis the season of good-byes for me.  And it's getting harder.  I am moving away from the home where I have lived for 25 years, and we are in our final week in this house.  So the farewells are becoming reality, and it's not easy.

My last weekend has been a whirlwind of activity.  I flew to Salt Lake City on Friday to attend Stampin' UP!'s On Stage event.  This was a fun introduction to new products coming in June when the new Annual Catalog is released.  Hang onto your wallets!  There is going to be an incredible catalog of fabulous products!

When I got home Sunday, my two besties, Bonnie and Tani, met me for a quick "download" of On Stage.  It's the last time I'll see them for awhile 😥

And then it was off to our neighborhood Farewell Party, where my wonderful neighbors came to say good-bye (and we introduced the new owners of our home).  It was a great send off, and I'm so grateful for this great group of long-time homeowners.

So can I stand one more good-bye?

It's time for Stampin' UP!'s annual Retirement List!  Yes, every year at this time we are given a list of the retiring items from the current Occasions and Annual catalogs.  It's a great time to complete your wish list but you need to do it quickly!  Once these items are gone, they are gone for good.

So, on to the list:


The list is quite lengthy, so I am posting links to both lists.  Just click on the link, and you will be taken to the page of items that are retiring.

Then be sure to place your orders so you don't miss out!


I want to point out that it LOOKS like ALL the stamp sets are retiring.  Don't panic!  Please note the asterisks*; these stamps will be offered in the new catalog, but will be in the CLING format.  All stamps in the new catalog will either be CLING red rubber or Photopolymer (clear).  There are no longer any "clear mount" or wood mount rubber stamps.

Saying good-bye is hard.  But looking forward to what is to come is exciting!  And right now, my Stampin' UP! world AND my "home" world will be getting a revamp, and I'm getting excited!
