Absolutely the LAST DAY to order Retiring products!

TODAY, August 31st is the LAST DAY to purchase items from the 2010 Idea Book and Catalogue. Many items are being retired, some are sold out already, so supply can't be guaranteed. After today, reinkers, card stock, marker sets, patterned paper and much more will be gone, with the Colour Renovation about to 'go live'

Please send me a message to michelle.dyson@ bigpond.com or phone me (9484 9447 or 0403 175 790) if you have any items you'd like to add to my final order, and I'll do my best to secure them for you! Orders can be delivered anywhere within Australia for $5.95 or 5% of your order total, whichever is greater.

Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack Class - fully booked!

Thanks everyone for the overwhelming interest in my upcoming Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack featuring Elegant Embossing.  You can click here to see the details or scroll down a little.  The class is now fully booked, but I already have 2 or 3 people keen to attend a repeat session.  I am also considering running some clases during the week, to make it easier on those of us who have hectic weekends, and would like to get your valuable opinion on running Wednesday evening classes. Just leave a comment here, or email me to let me know your thoughts, or to add your name to the waiting list.  If you've requested a spot for the Friday 13th August evening class, please feel free to confirm your availability.

Last Chance List - it's a biggun' !!

Time to get your catalogue, your wish list, and the LAST CHANCE list and start comparing notes!
It's a massive 8 pages long, and the link can be found here:

Last Chance List PDF Link

As always, all of the Hostess Sets will retire with the current catalogue, but there is still a chance to earn them between now and August 31st (while stocks last)

Next up we have Catalogue Stamp Sets, and the main list I have linked to above is organised in catalogue page order, so that you can easily leaf through.  Check the prices as you go, as there are some serious bargains tucked away in there!!

Then we have Stampin' Around Wheels, be quick for these as they have a tendency to disappear at light warp speed.

Then Watercolour Wonder crayons - don't panic, these favourite tools of mine are not retiring strictly, but they will be reconfigured to match the new colour collections.  Meanwhile, if you love to watercolour flowers and the like, and want to travel light with your crayons, consider the Earth Elements set as it has everything you need!

OK, cardstock is next - these are all the colours that we knew would be retiring when the colour renovation was announced, but some of the colours are being reconfigured into new names (Kraft is going to be called Crumb Cake for example, and the packs sizes will be changing for most of the Neutrals)  There are also some reduced prices here, especially for 12x12 smooth cardstock in selected colours.

LOL! Inkpads and refills - if you haven't been listening for the last few months as I have been HOUNDING you dear readers, about checking your supplies, now is your last chance.

Stampin' Write Markers - there are some cheapies here, with most of the retiring colours reduced to just $4.31, and if you're a fan of Cameo Coral or Apricot Appeal those colours are just $2.88!

Stampin' Around Cartridges - mostly going....  If you're a fan of the pre-inked cartridges for their speed and ease of use, stock up on the colours you don't already own.  In the new catalogue there will be uninked cartridges available that your can ink up with an ink refill of your choice, and basic black inked cartridges.


Mmmm, donuts paper....   Designer Series Paper!   Prices from just $8.48.  All the designs will be retiring, so make sure you've got plenty of your favourites to complete any projects you've got on the go.  All of the Simply Scrappin Kits will also be retiring, and "I Wish" is at a reduced price, just in time for your Christmas projects for this year.

Ooooh, Simply Sent Kits - great gifts for beginner and experienced stampers alike.  Most are discounted to make them even more appealing- my fave isthe "No One Like You" set, the stamps and colours are just gorgeous, just $62.96.

Embellishments are next up - brilliant prices on die cuts, sticky cuts, and more.  Some of the surprises in here include the Pretties Kit :(  And Antique Brass Build a Brads (sob)

Ribbons - yum!  Also some great deals in this section.  Ribbons are going to be totally reconfigured for the new catalogue, and many of the current colours will not be available.

Now - Punches - don't panic when you see the great long list!!!  We are switching across to the new punch style, the folding flat design like the 2 step bird, jewelry tag etc.  If you love the "whale tail" style, or wish to grab a bargain or two, take a close look.

Miscellaneous bits and bobs are also on the chopping block, including the best pencil sharpener you'll ever use, Love Notes, the ultra useful card and photo storage "Forget me not Keeper"and more.

So, take a good look, and get back to me ASAP with your heart's desire, simply call me on (02) 9484 9447 or 0403 175 790, or send me an email to michelle.dyson@bigpond.com  I can have your order delivered anywhere in Australia for just $5.95 or 5% of your product total.  Happy bargain huntin!


All items are available WHILE STOCKS LAST!  And, if you need a reminder that this statement is the real deal, take a look at the header image - Sweet Slumber Specialty paper is already GONE GONE GONE!!
