Retired Items for sale

10/7/2012 UPDATE – I am updating what has sold and what is pending plus adding more items – all the updates can be seen on the page Retired Stamps for Sale – click here.

I am working on pricing and tagging retired items for sale.  I will be taking them all to a consignment sale next week but thought I would go ahead and offer them here on my blog.  If you are interested in any of these items please email me and be prepared to send me payment via PAYPAL (you can send it to my email address through paypal) by Monday night (10/8/2012).  Those that are not local will be asked to send a second payment for the cost of the shipping – I will have to see how much that is based on what you are getting and where you live and if I have a box/envelope that it will fit in or need to purchase something.  I only ship to US addresses so if you don’t live in the US please don’t reply.  I had hoped to have these ready sooner so it wouldn’t be such a short window but I have been very busy and it just didn’t happen.

If you have a specific question about an item please email and I will try to answer.  Most everything is used/opened.  I have many more stamp sets still to add but that may not be until Sunday so I hope to have another blog post on Sunday with those.  This is what I have so far –

Create a Little Scrapbook Page

One of the problems with going away is that you loose track of the days and then it takes a few days to get back into a routine.  Luckily I checked my calendar Monday night or I would have missed my dentist appointment on Tuesday – I thought I still had another day before I had to go.  I still need to go look at all of last week’s creations – I haven’t caught back up since I was gone from Thursday through Sunday for the Getaway Trip.  And Monday and Tuesday I was gone to various appointments finally a couple of days at home so I can get myself back together – I don’t like being disorganized – but I really am right now. 

On to better things – at least I did remember this!  It’s time for this weeks Create with Connie & Mary weekly challenge!  This week is a new sketch CCMC221 – and I think this is a good one.  I started thinking of lots of different things to do with this sketch but I didn’t have time to implement them all for this challenge.  I do plan to go back though and use this one again!

For now I decided to use this one for a 6×6 Halloween Scrapbook Page.  I think a My Digital Studio page would be cute too, or a card, or a framed piece, and more…..

Here is my little layout.  I actually want to add this to a 12×12 layout and include the rest of my photos but I haven’t had a chance to do that yet nor did I decide what the rest of the layout would look like.  I’m headed to a scrapbook crop on Saturday and I may let them do this as a Make ‘n Take project if they visit my table – what do you think?

I had to dig deep for a good Halloween photo – it has been a while since all the boys have dressed up – this may have been the last year that Kyle wore a costume – this is from 2005.  He isn’t actually in this group picture but I did get an individual picture of him – that’s part of the reason I want to include this on a larger layout so I can add the boys individual photos that I do have.

Did you see the news about Stampin’ Up! selling some of the stamps individually out of the stamp sets?  Well the Happy Halloween that I used on this layout is one of them that you can buy all by its little ol’ self.  I’m excited to hear what everyone thinks about the idea.  Stampin’ Up! is trying it out on three of the greeting stamp sets and I guess they will evaluate the results towards the end of the year to decide if they want to continue once January gets here.

Stampin’ Up! Supplies:

  • Stamps:  Seasonal Sayings
  • Ink: VersaMark
  • Card Stock: Basic Black, Very Vanilla
  • Accessories: Tangerine Tango Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Houndstooth and Scaringbone Designer Series Paper, Silver Stampin’ Dazzle Marker

Visit Create with Connie & Mary and submit your creation for this weeks challenge – each week 3 top creations are selected.  Each challenge is open for a week. Have you been enjoying all the holiday creations at the online 2012 Create Class – the final week is here – but it’s not to late to join – there are some really fun projects!

Thank You Stampin’ Up!

Thank You Stampin’ Up! for a wonderfully relaxing Getaway Trip to Hilton Head Island, SC.  Greg and I really enjoyed the trip and the time away on no particular schedule.  I posted a few quick posts with some pictures why were there but I wanted to wrap it up with another post and a look at what we did during our few days away.

This post has some pictures and what we did on Thursday after we arrived.

This post has some pictures from Friday.

This was our pillow gift on the last night – Stampin’ supplies in a plastic case –

Here is what we got inside –

The Postage Due clear stamp set, Fan Fair Designer Series paper, Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette ink pads, Island Indigo Baker’s Twine and Ruffled Ribbon, Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake Seam Binding, and a package of the Designer Vintage Faceted buttons.  Everything this weekend has had the Polka Dot Fabric and cute beach themed tags tied around it.

I put together a couple of two-page spreads in My Digital Studio showing some of the pictures that I took over the weekend.

Here are pictures taken at the Westin Resort where we stayed – views looking out to the beach and ocean, views of the pools and statues through the resort.

And this last layout were pictures from two of the places we went to visit – on Saturday we drove down to Sea Pines Plantation and stopped at South Beach and then went to Harbour Town.  We climbed to the top of the Lighthouse, walked around the Marina and ate lunch at the Crazy Crab.  Then we stopped at the Baynard Plantation Ruins.  On Sunday as we left Hilton Head Island we stopped at the National Wildlife Refuge at Pinckey Island – I took pictures of the wildlife and scenery as we walked around – we probably did about a 2 mile walk.

And look at these birds that we saw in South Beach – Macaws  –  the blues ones are Kiwi and Cherokee, the scarlet one is Captain.

It was a nice weekend and I’m slowing getting back in the groove here at home.  I’m working on prepping for a vendor table at an all day scrapbook crop on Saturday and then a scrapbook and stamping consignment sale next week.

Alright – time to get off the computer…..

 

October News from Stampin’ Up!

Stampin’ Up! had a bunch of news yesterday and hopefully you’ll find it as exciting as I thought it was.  So where to begin.

First for the month of October we have an early Christmas present from Stampin’ Claus!  You can get the Festive Paper Piercing Pack for Free. Here is the link for the flyer with the details –  Flyer_HolidayGift_Oct0112_US

Second Stampin’ Up! is trying something new and going to offer you the chance to buy single pieces from select stamp sets!  Sometimes there is a set and you don’t want everything in it but just one of two of the pieces.  This trial will be going on now through January 2, 2013.  The single stamps will be clear mount (so you will need a clear block to mount them on) and come packaged in a cello bag (you can purchase clear cases separately).  You’ll be able to purchase individual pieces from the following stamp sets  (click on the image to see a larger version and I’ll also add a link for the full size flyer –

Seasonal Sayings – SSF_Seasonal_Sayings

And Finally the third bit of exciting news is that Stampin’ Up! has LOWERED the My Digital Studio Professional Print Pricing!  Every print item has a new lower price and some have been cut as much as 50%.  You can get all the details for that HERE.  And remember that today is Tuesday so there are new digital downloads too – see those HERE.  Including what looks to be a fun one called Quick Wit Costumes Template – print out on an iron on transfer and iron on to a t-shirt – super quick Halloween Costume.  Be sure to check it out.

Gotta go……
