Thanks x 2

Yay, it’s Friday! Great time to share another quick card, or two, from the 30-day challenge like Thanks x 2.

This is actually the second of the two cards. When quick is the word of the day, scraps really do come in to play. But, after the original card (below) was posted for the challenge, I decided to re-work it with a brighter sentiment. So much better! The Bermuda Bay “Thanks” gets lost on the original card. What do you think?

Not only that but the Crushed Curry “Thanks” really make the flower centers POP! Don’t you agree? I wonder if the products used here will continue to the new catalog. Hmm. We’ll find out very soon so be ready with your Wish List.

I know for sure the 2014-2016 In-colors and everything associated with them are retiring, but that’s all I know for now. Here’s the list of retiring In-Colors and some of the associated products.

If you’re in love with any of these colors, get them now. If you have the ink pads, stock up on the refills. It’s been my experience that the Ink Refills go very, very quickly! Personally, I’m hoping Stampin’ Up! does a “color refresh” this year that includes keeping both Mossy Meadow and Blackberry Bliss.

This time of year is so much fun. A time to latch on to some outgoing favorites before they’re gone while anticipating new goodies coming our way. This is one of the exciting times for a demonstrator. We get to see the virtual catalog about a month next week and place selective pre-orders about a month before our customers. Maybe this post should have been titled “Thanks for the Memories”.
