Sent with Love

 

Tuesday, April 30th is the very last day to order the sassy Sent with Love products. This collection of travel inspired stamps and designer paper has a fun and carefree vibe.  I'm also diggin' the cool paper as a few of the paper patterns offer a masculine feel that can easily be transformed to cards or projects for a fun fella in your life. 

 

I have noted the Retiring Items in the following card designs with a double **.  Please remember, these items sell out quickly and are available only while supplies last.  

 

I made this little All Occasion card in 5 minutes! Sometimes is just nice to have a simple sentiment that can be used for a variety of occasions. The 'For You' tag is actually from the designer paper pack.  There is a sheet that offers a wide variety of shapes and tags that can be cut out like I did above or used as a fun scrapbooking background.

Paper: Whisper White & Island Indigo Card Stock, Sent with Love Designer Series Paper

Stamps: Sent with Love

Color Refresh Announced!

Here are the color families broken down at a glance so you can see what's fitting where.

 

Here's a snap shot of what's retiring...

 

 

Here's what you need to know!

1. The 'Retiring Colors' may be ordered now and will be available only while supplies last. 
2. PLEASE order your re-inkers, card stock and color appropriate accessories (ribbon) before they are gone!
3. The Reasoning behind the Color Refresh...
   Q: Why are colors being discontinued?
   A: We retired colors based on sales history and focus group feedback. We also looked at our overall color offering and determined what colors were not working with others. We sent out surveys, looked at trends, and determined what colors are out of date, etc.
   
   Q: Why have some of the carryover colors changed collections?
   A: With the changes, we found that a few colors fit better in a different collection. We also organized our colors to be more complementary within each collection.
