Saying Goodbye (retiring favorite)

Hello Friends!    

Welcome to the Creative Circle monthly blog hop. It has been awhile since I posted as I was away during the month of April scouting around China/Hong Kong/Japan. It is tough getting back, not just the time change. I now have an artist block. (sigh)

The month has gone by so quickly, and slowly getting back into routine. So much has happened in the Stampin' Up! world ... retired products/stamps, colors revamped, change of new style of ink pads, and so much more.

Before I get to all the changes, the Creative Circle has added another new member to the team. We welcome Lisa Eisner. She is a big fan of 3Ds like I am. Her website can be found here https://craftingwithprincesslisa.blogspot.com/. Welcome Lisa!

If you missed the Last Chance Products-Occasions, and Retiring Products List – Annual Catalog lists, be sure to click on the links underlined. All retired products and stamps will end May 31, 2018.

This month's hop is Saying Goodbye (retiring favorite). I have lots of retiring favorites and sad to see them go, but yet excited to see new products out. My most sadness is the Birthday Blooms stamp. This stamp is so versatile. The outlined set that you can color with any colors you wish. 

Let me show you what I did with the Birthday Blooms set together with the Elegant Eggplant, Perfect Plum, Wild Wasabi and Gumball Green Classic Inks.
