Rainy Day Cards

Hey all!! I stayed out of the yard tonight because it rained earlier today and was too wet to do anything. I took advantage of my time inside by making some cards for a coworker. Evidently she knows alot of dying people because she buys tons of sympathy cards from me!! If you know her, you may want to stay away from her, you could be next!! I also made a couple of get well cards with the retiring set, Under the Weather. I can't believe they are getting rid of that one!! Enjoy your evening!

Sorry for being MIA again!

Hey girls! I just wanted you all to know that I am still alive here in Boaz, KY!! I have been so swamped with yard work, housework, and other things that I have just not had time to post. I will try to get back in the game soon! In the meantime, click here to get a sneak peek at the Stampin Up Fall-Winter preview catalog!

Unfortunately, Stampin Up has also announced that there will be a price increase on many of the items that they are offering in the new catalog. They have not raised their prices in ten years and now the time has come. Don't fret too much, it is only about a 5% increase.

I hope you all are as excited as I am about the new catalog in July and all of the new products! I also want to send out a congrats to Melissa Compton! I heard she was picked for the Stampin Up Survey Team and received some cool new products from Stampin Up! I'm Jealous!!

I hope you all have a great weekend - I'll blog to you soon! Laurie

Here is the retired list that we have been waiting for! I have 29 sets on the list - boo hoo!! It is a good idea to take a bold stamp from your collection and stamp the image next to the retired sets in your catalog. This way you will know which ones you may want to purchase at the next camp!! I will also post a link to the list that is sorted by page number to make it easier when going through the catalog.

Enjoy.
