Since starting this ‘last hurrah’ series of cards using retiring stamp sets, I have been having such a lovely time and have vowed for the upcoming catalogue to make sure that I use my stamps a whole lot more while they’re actually still current, rather than leaving it to a big emotional rush at the end!  I’m also vowing to take a lot more pictures of my creations, as I’m sure I made a lot more with this stamp set, but can only find a couple now…

Today I am saying goodbye to Pocket Silhouettes – a gorgeous set of tiny floral images and two sentiments, all in the same box!  Here is a bit of Pocket Silhouettes inspiration for your Thursday evening…

The centre of the three pictures above is of one of a set of cards that I demonstrated at a workshop on the weekend.  I made up four of these little “love notes” with matching stamped envelopes and popped them in a cellophane bag with a First Edition DSP backing and tied with a ribbon.  So cute :-)

The final one is my ‘last hurrah’ card, completed just this afternoon.  It’s based on this card that I pinned on Pinterest some time ago, then re-visited today as inspiration.  I added some additional shading to my version and absolutely love how it turned out.  So much so that I’m even sadder to see the end of Pocket Silhouettes now… :-(

If you’re also sad to see it on the retiring list, act now to make sure that you get hold of it for yourself.  Contact me to order your set while you can…

Registration for the Perth leg of the Heartfelt Events on August 25th closes tomorrow August 17th!  If you would like to join me, several members of my team and my guests for a fabulous day of stampin’ and frivolity, be sure to let me know asap!

For more information on the event, see my previous post HERE

Just for your information, I will be presenting one of the classes at the event, so I would love to see some familiar and friendly faces in the crowd to support/heckle/cheerlead while I’m up there doing my thing ;-)

      Hi Julie!

      Thanks for your lovely comment! If you want this stamp set, you’d better be quick – the retiring list ends in 10 days!

    It was one of my first ‘must have’ sets but have hardly used it. Must give it some love.

      It was a must have for me too Fi, and I have given it lots of love and enjoyed doing so again with these cards :-)

    I have that set but I have never used it. These cards are all inspiring. They remind why I bought it. I will have to give it a go on the weekend.
