Say goodbye to these great stamp sets

I love this Engraved Greetings card - a little embossing (Vintage Wallpaper folder), a little ribbon and some coordinating dsp and ink and you've got a great card. I CASE'd this from another stamper. It looks great no matter what color you use!

This card is so soft and pretty in person. It uses the Level 2 hostess set, Fast & Fabulous, as well as First Edition dsp (carrying over to the new catalog), and a sentiment from Live, Laugh, Love.

Here are a few more fabulous stamp sets that will be retiring as of the end of the month - Petal Pizzazz, Defining Alphabet, and Define Your Life. I cut the Top Note from Greenhouse Gala dsp, and added a 3/8" Very Vanilla taffeta.

Pun Fun is another fun retiring stamp set. I used some Brights dsp, and the Eyelet Border Punch. I used markers to color the flower and a blender pen withi Basic Gray to color the skunk.

If you'd like any of these stamp sets, you may order them before the end of June! Just visit my Online Store via http://therubberroom.stampinup.net/ and you can see a complete list of retiring stamps, accessories, and decor elements.

Printed Petals Card

Love the Printed Petals stamp set that Shellie gave us on the Southern Caribbean Cruise in late April! We're going to be making this card at my clubs this month.

I used Pacific Point, Sahara Sand, and Not Quite Navy inks. The large flower was first inked in Pacific Point and then re-inked in Not Quite Navy using the Rock-n-Roll technique. Blueberry Crisp DSP is my favorite right now. I also punched the little flower in the center of the build-a-brad with it, then had to throw on one of our new Pearl Jewels. I made this card with my daughter-in-law in mind.

Stamps: Printed Petals set 116679, Defining Alphabet set 114952, Define Your Life set 114950;

Bouquet Bunch tag card...

I won't be missing Really Rust at all, thanks to the new Cajun Craze color coming out July 1!

I used the Woodgrain background stamp on a piece of Really Rust, then punched it with the Scallop Edge Punch, piercing holes in each scallop.

This was the third card we made at my stamp camp.

I had many Kraft tags leftover from a Christmas stamp camp, and thought they'd be great for this card, with a jumbo eyelet and Kraft taffeta ribbon added for bling.

The sentiment is from the Define Your Life stamp set, and the plant is from the new Summer Mini Catalog set, it's called Bouquet of Bunches. And, again, this card was CASE'd from another talented stamper named Geobeck on Splitcoast.
