IT'S TIME to clear out the old and move on to some new products out of the SPRING CATALOG

I spent the biggest part of my day yesterday going through and assembling cards left over from my November and December classes.  One thing I have a hard time doing is taking the time following the class to assemble the leftovers and I end up saying to myself "oh, I'll do that later".  Well it seems my later never happens so here's what I'm left with..... a big mess! 

The weather was so nasty yesterday which made for a great day to stay inside and stamp. Would you believe I assembled 52 cards yesterday?  I hate to say it but I have a couple more baggies to tackle another day but hey, I'm thankful the majority is behind me.  

I'm not much of one for New Year Resolutions but this is one thing I'm going to work on.  I don't want to be making Christmas cards in January especially when I want to play with new stuff I've ordered out of the Spring Catalog.  If you haven't seen the catalog, please visit my SU website, www.shirleybmckay.stampinup.net.  If you would like a copy of the Catalog, please send me an email and I'll be glad to send you one.  For those customers who may be reading this post, you will receive yours at your next class.  The catalog is slammed full of so many cute sets and new products....

you don't want to miss it!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will do something good for yourself and stamp daily!

RETIRING PRODUCTS BEING USED ONE LAST TIME

 

This coming Sunday I am having a class using RETIRING stamp sets.  I choose four of my favorite sets...I hate to let them go! but I'm determined this year to get rid of some of "my stuff" to make room for some new things.   

 The first card uses the BAROQUE MOTIF set.  Be sure to check it out on page 146 of the 2011/12 Idea Book & Catalog. 

 I'm really going to miss this set...TOTALLY TOOLS.  I've used this set for birthdays, get well wishes and thinking of you.  I'm guessing that some of my ladies may use this card for Father's Day. (I have the hardest time designing those male cards).

 FLIGHT OF THE BUTTERFLY has been around a long time but has served well.  In this set are the following sentiments: thank you so very much, hope your day is as happy as happy gets!, one person can make such a difference and that person is you! AND if nothing ever changed there would be no butterflies.

Last but not least, the MEDALLION single stamp.  This layout was cased from a card that I received while at Leadership and unfortunately I do not know who to give credit to.  This stamp offers many possibilities.

If you live in the Katy, TX area and would like to attend this class, email me for details!

Just a reminder....you only have until the end of the month to buy these, along with hundreds more, retired stamp sets and accessories.  You can purchase them directly from my Stampin'Up! website (see label above).  

Thank you for stopping by.  Do something good for yourself; stamp daily!
