Special birthday

My daughter’s birthday is coming up and she LOVES things that are foiled and have sparkle. The Love You Always Specialty DSP has beautifully foiled paper so I knew I had to get that out and get crackin’! Don’t worry – she will not see this post!

Quite a few things on this card are retiring in a week – on 5/3/21 so I wanted to make sure you get a look at the card before they’re gone for good. The supplies I used are linked below. If the link doesn’t take you to the item intended, it means it’s no longer available. But I can assure you there will be lots of other lovely items to choose from!

Edited to correct: the Lovely You stamp set is not retiring as the original post indicated.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have you seen a Tulip Magnolia tree?

The Tulip Magnolia tree is such a pretty tree. It has pink to purple flowers instead of white or yellow – what a gorgeous site to behold in the spring here in the south. Luckily I can see these each spring, but I will miss the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set with coordinating Magnolia Memory Dies when they retire!

But that’s not the only thing on my card that is retiring! The Many Medallions Dies and the Purple Posey Stampin’ Blends, which I used to color the blooms, will also be retiring. I also used the Peony Garden DSP to stamp the sentiment on. All these items, plus many more great choices are only available until 5/4/21 or until supplies last.

Check out the retiring items here.

Losing one of the good ones!

The stamp set Rooted in Nature is one of my favorite stamp sets. It’s the first one I ordered when it came out and sadly is now retiring. I mean, I’m keeping it of course, but it I won’t be as apt to showcase it again on my blog because of that fact. There is also a coordinating die set, too! The sentiment is from a long retired set, but this simple layout allows for many different sentiments to be used. 🙂

You can view all the retiring items by clicking here – be sure to get them before they are no longer available or sell out, but for sure no later than 5/3/21. The items in the new catalog will be available to order on 5/4/21 , so check back soon!
