It is that time of the year when Stampin’ Up! announce to us what stamp sets and accessories are not going to make it into the new Catalogue that comes out 1 October. I am really sorry to see some of these stamp sets go but on the brighter side there are some discounts to be had (up to 40%) and it is making way for lots of lovely new things.

This
year it is a pretty extensive list and there are probably lots of
things on there which are on your wish list. The list is so long because as of 1
October our annual catalogue is being brought in line with that of our
US/Canadian cousins so we have had to make way for lots of lovely new goodies.

If there is a much loved set of stamps or accessories that you really want, then now is the time to purchase it because come 1 October it will no longer be available. What’s more, there is a limited supply of the items on the retirement list so the sooner you place your order the greater the likelihood of being able to get it.

There are two lists (one for stamps and the other for accessories) and you can see copies of these by clicking on the following link. This will take you to the relevant page on the Stampin’ Up! web-site.

If there is anything on the list that you would like to purchase, please let me know and I can then check to see if it is still available.

I am placing orders most of the time so don’t forget to get yours in as early as possible to avoid disappointment. It really is a case of the early bird catches the worm.

The other exciting news that I want to share is the arrival of the Autumn/Winter Catalogue. Products in this catalogue will be available to purchase 1 September 2012 to 31 January 2013. You will have noticed that I have over the last week or so posted photos of some of the projects that I have made. I have lots more ideas to show you, so check back over the coming weeks.

If you don’t have your copy of of the catalogue please click on the picture above to be taken to an electronic version of it. Alternatively, if you would prefer to see a paper copy then please drop me a line and I will pop a FREE copy in the post to you.

I am off to Reading today for a Training Day. This means swaps so don’t forget to check here tomorrow to see the swaps that I took with me. Photos of the ones received will be posted later in the week.
