Say Goodbye: To Baskets & Blooms!

Have you viewed the retiring lists yet!? There are HUNDREDS of Stamp Sets, Accessories and Decor Elements Retiring!! You're going to want to hurry and get an order in while you still can for your favorites…. before they're gone forever!!

Here at alystamps.com, I'm going to be doing a big RETIRING SAMPLE BLITZ!!!!! I'm going to be posting oodles of samples for retiring stamp sets and big shot dies to help inspire you and plan out your wish lists! If you're an alystamps.com subscriber – don't forget to use your coupon… buy 3 retiring stamp sets and get the 4th for 50% off! I will most likely be posting these samples DAILY – but it's not a promise with how busy my life tends to get!

The samples I'm posting are previous designs I've done or various swap cards I have in my stash – so not everything is my original artwork and some you may have seen before… but creativity isn't necessarily the point here… giving you lots of ideas for the retiring stuff is!

Do you remember these darling baskets? We made them at a Catalog Release Party several years back. THIS DIE – THE BASKETS & BLOOMS BIGZ XL DIE – IS RETIRING!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a Stampin' Up! Exclusive Die, and 25% OFF WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!!!!!

This die (Item Code #113484 and discounted down to just $29.96) is a super cute pattern for small gifts or favors. You can use them for place settings with candies – or present small gifts such as jewelry or even chap stick/lip gloss in them.

Jen’s Beautiful Photo Holder!

It's time to share with you one of the most WOW projects I've ever seen!!! The Design Guru of our Team, Jen Rios Raner, made this FABULOUS Photo Holder as her Secret Santa Gift Exchange and it now hangs proudly on my office wall!

She put the "heartfelt" sentiment on it so that it could be used to display a Team Photo, which I fully plan on doing once we get our new Team Photo taken next week! I've got all of the past ones already in frames, and I really felt that this special frame needed a black and white photo so that the colors didn't detract from the beautiful artwork.

Here are some close ups of different areas, first her darling butterflies and flourish – she TRACED this flourish from a Decor Element and cut it out by hand!! Yeah, WOW!

Here's an upclose of her glitzy heart and pieced together Decor Letters from various word sets:

She created the magnets out of Build-A-Brards!

She even created a coordinating gift box for it… Seriously!

I can't even begin to put together a complete supply list for this amazing project, but I can tell you that it's all done with Thoroughly Modern Designer Series Paper, the motifs come from "Friends 24/7" and the butterflies are done with the butterfly punch.
