My daughter’s wedding invitations were in Blushing Bride and Pear Pizazz, and I’ve needed a little time to fall back in love with those colors…

• Stamps:  Thoughts and Prayers, Petite Petals and Teeny Tiny Wishes
• Color Palette:  Whisper White, Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake
• Punches:  Bird, Elegant Butterfly, Petite Petals
• Accessories:  Big Shot and Honeycomb TIEF, Naturals Trim, Blushing Bride Stitched Grosgrain, Vellum, Linen Thread, Candy Dots Subtles, Pearl Jewels, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I’m sorry to see both of these ribbons retire – especially the Naturals Trim – but I know that there are new ribbons waiting in the wings that are going to rock my socks!  That’s the nature of change – you have to let go of the things you know and love in order to make room for things you don’t know.  I’m OK with that.

There’s a vellum layer over the butterfly, and if you look REALLY closely you might be able to see that I used Glue Dots to keep the layers together.  When you go to tie that Linen Thread around the butterfly, don’t scrimp – you’ll need a nice long piece to be able to tie a knot without saying Bad Words.

The Petite Petals Punch is STILL on the backorder list.  I know it’s shipping out, because a couple of my customers got theirs this week – but it looks as though the supplier just isn’t able to keep up with demand.  Boo.  I guess you just have to get in line.

Don’t forget that there’s free shipping until April 25th.  That means you can order just one thing and not have to worry about the minimum.  I’m doing my best to update the Sticky post at the top of the blog page with Retiring product that is sold out.  Great new stamping goodies are on the way!
