Retiring at the end of May:  Fancy Flower and Sincere Salutations stamp sets; Pear Pizazz inks and cardstocks; Ticket Corner punch.

Soon to be retired:  Clearly For You stamp set; Beau Chateau DSP; Eyelet Border punch.

Based on a design by Diana Donng.

Soon to be retired: Beyond the Garden DSP; Butterfly punch; Finial Press TIEF.

My first real attempt at the Bargello technique.

Soon to be retired: Paisley Petals DSP; Oval All stamp set; White Satin ribbon.

CASEd this idea from Dawn Easton with a few minor changes. 

Retiring at the end of May: Crazy for Cupcakes  stamp set; Poppy Parade ink & cardstock; Just Add Cake DSP; Ovals Originals Die.

I used the "new" Stampin' Up! Simply Scored Scoring tool (with diagonal plate) to make this box using soon to be retired (5/30) products.  Plan to offer this as a class sometime soon.

Beyond the Garden DSP; Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight and Wild Wasabi cardstock and inks.  Rhinestone brads; Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer punch; Finial Press TIEF.

I CASEd this idea from a SU! demonstrator (not sure who it was so let me know if you know and I'll give her credit).  i gave them to my Stamper's Club and Big Shot club members this month.

I used the soon to be retired Itty Bitty Box die and the Tea Shoppe set that was in the Occasions mini catalog (it will also be available in the new catalog).  Each box holds 4 mini notecards and envelopes cut from DSP.

My downline and I got together over the weekend to put together 20 notepad holders to give out to the mothers staying at the Ronald McDonald House in Orange on Mother's Day.

We used the Clear mount stamp cases available in the catalog in a pack of 4 (#119105). The notepads are removable so you can see a 12 month calendar. 

Products were donated by the wonderful demonstrators on my volunteer list for Orange County-thank you ladies!

We also had an in-house activity last Friday. 4 demonstrator volunteers and 12 house guests participated. Here is the link to the RMH Facebook album with photos of the event: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150928666521005.462423.240857111004&type=1

A project from my recent Big Shot class featuring the Box #2 die that is retiring.

I cut two of the boxes and glued them together with the flaps facing in and then added a "handle" where the two boxes come together.  It becomes a pseudo "gable box" with two sections to fill with your favorite goodies!
