It's almost time to say good bye to another catalog. The Seasonal Expressions 2 Idea Book will be retired effective August 31. This means a lot of our favorites will be going away. Close To My Heart has released the official list of items that will be retired. These items are also now on a While Supplies Last basis which means they could run out before the end of the month. In fact, some already have!
You can see all the retiring items in the "Going Soon" category of my online Close To My Heart shop.
Here are four broad categories of items that are retiring:
Current Paper Collections
The complete lines of Sweet Girl, True Love, Into the Wild, Craft On, Mix-ins and The Story Begins are all retiring. This includes the paper packs, complements, Picture My Life, stamps and workshops.
Stamp Sets
There are over 100 stamp sets retiring! And this doesn't include the Stamp + Thin Cut sets, but they are retiring too! Nearly every current stamp set is leaving us!
Colors!
Of course our beautiful color of the year, Sugar Plum is retiring! In addition, Pansy, Emerald, Wilow, Lemon, Heather and Pomegranate will soon be gone. Pick up a pack of paper and ink pad (plus re-inker!) while you can!
Thin Cuts
We have a lot of Thin Cuts on the retiring list and some are already out of stock! Here's a list of the retiring Thin Cuts that are still available (as I write this): Basic Hearts, Basic Circles, Basic Ovals (low quantity!), Block Alphabet, Block Numbers, Lace Border, Crafting Shapes, Doily, Stitched Flowers, Favor Box, and Fancy Tags!
This is not a complete list. There are also several embellishments and tools that will not be carried over to the new catalog. You can see all the retiring items in the "Going Soon" category of my online Close To My Heart shop.
