Once they are gone, they are gone for good - don't be disappointed

In only a couple more weeks, this catalog and many products in it will be retiring:

 

And that's why Stampin' Up! has produced the Last Chance List - so that you know which ones to purchase now before they are gone forever. (tip: click on the shopping basket on the right sidebar of my blog to link over to my Online Store)

 

My neighbors must wonder about me at times. When Stampin' Up! publishes the list of retiring stamp sets and products you can hear the moans and 'OH NO!!s' coming from my apartment. It can be so heartbreaking to love a bundle to bits, and then see it on that dreaded list.

Tip: it's called a Last Chance list for a reason. Once these products are gone, even if the catalog has not yet retired, then you are out of luck. 

Here's my "read 'em and weep" Top 5 (no particular order). Grab your tissues!

1. Sailing Home bundle - bye bye perfect masculine bundle - even for the non-sailor. 
2. Poinsettia Petals - the perfect Christmas bundle, including phrases. 
3. Tasteful Touches - oh the backgrounds I have created, plus I love funky! 
4. Hammered Metal embossing folder - see above about funky.
5. Pierced Blooms dies - create the 2D perfect flowers in just seconds
6. Ok one more - this one sent the loudest OH NO throughout the entire building. Playful Alphabet Dies. I may never forgive Stampin' Up! for this one. 

Yes, 'out with the old' means 'in with the new'. There is a new catalog coming and if you have placed an order with me in the past six months you will receive a paper copy from me in your mailbox in mid-April.

But for now, let's be sad together.
