The good news is that I’m back from my break and I have finally been able to get back on this blog. I had a few technical issues going on while I was away.

The bad news is that this first post is about the Retirement List.

Yep, the Retirement List is now out and can be found below. As expected, everything to do with  the 2013-2015 In Colors are going but there’s lots more, some things with a fabulous discount.

Please note that items are only available on a while stocks last basis and will not be available after 2 June. The new Annual Catalogue goes live on 2 June (not 30 June as per the info on the reverse of the current catalogue).


I will try to update the list as often as possible.

My posts over the next couple of weeks are going to feature some of the sets that are retiring along with some of the retiring Designer Series Paper and punches etc.

This is my first one featuring the Regarding Dahlias stamp set, the Flowerpot Designer Series Paper and the Curly Label Punch.

There was a little bit of fussy cutting going on with this one but it didn’t take too long.  The greeting is punched out and mounted on two Night of Navy curly labels that have been cut in half and then split. The labels are then glued to the back of the greeting to frame it. The whole thing is finished off with a small Basic Rhinestone.

I couldn’t leave the inside blank either so there is a further dahlia stamped on the inside bottom right corner.

Please note that the prices for both the stamp sets and designer series paper are shown above as full price, but that they are available with a discount (not shown for some reason). The stamp set has a 15% discount on the clear mount set and 25% discount on the wood mount set so are £11.86 and £13.46 respectively. The Flowerpot Designer Series Paper is also available a 50% discount and should be £4.98 (bargain).

Don’t forget, items are only available on a while stocks last basis and therefore some items will not be around for much longer. Last year the retiring In Colors went out of stock very quickly (a matter of days), so don’t delay too long or you could miss out.
