I can hardly believe that it's here already, but it's true the retiring stamp list has debuted itself today. It's always a bittersweet time of year for me. I (like almost everyone else) look forward to new stamps but in order to do that Stampin' Up! must retire stamps that have been around awhile or just didn't sell too well. And that's when I get a little sad. We all have our favorites and it's hard to say Goodbye to them. But the nice thing is that Stampin' Up! gives us the list well in advance of the final retirement that way we can get the stamps we want before they are gone.
There are so many great sets on the list so if you don't already have them you will want to get them by May 31, 2012 or they will be gone forever. Maybe you even want to hold a fun Girl's Night Out and we can use some of these sets and you can earn some of your favorite ones for free.
This set, Turtle & Co. is retiring. It has been this year's Ronald McDonald House Charity stamp set. For every one of these stamp sets purchased Stampin' Up! is donating $2.00 to the Ronald McDonald House Charity. The RMHC stamp set is always available for one year and then it's gone. I love how Stampin' Up! is donating to such a worthy cause and helping families to be near their children when they are sick and in the hospital. I have more cards made with this set that I will share with you in the coming day.
So for now, print out the retired stamp list, grab a highlighter, and your favorite refreshing drink (coffee, tea or whatever else it may be) and sit down to start marking your catalog with the sets that you must have before they are gone forever.
Have a wonderful day and come back soon!
