Retiring stamp list! and a reminder about Stampaganza!

The popular Stampaganza is now going on for the month of June!!! When you purchase 2 stamp set you receive 1 FREE of equal or less value!
If you are trying to decide WHICH STAMPS you should purchase, I have a SECRET for you. You may want to choose some stamp sets that will be retiring as of July 31. They will no longer be available after that date.  .

• The sets below with an asterisk (*) next to them are sets that coordinate with our wonderful Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge.  You can see when that the stamps that coordinate have an outline around them. When you receive your sets, they will  have the outline around them as well as a measurement of what size to cut that image on your Cricut. Cool beans!

Stamp sets that are listed are from the Autumn-Winter 2011 idea book that were not included in the Spring-Summer idea book.  While the majority of stamp sets will retire, some stamp sets may be put in the Autumn-Winter 2012 idea book to be released August 2012.

Here we go: Retiring stamp list! Only available until July 31st!!
