Retired Set Sale
Maxwell Street Days July 21st & 22nd
8 am to 5 pm
This year was a banner year for retiring stamp sets, wheels, and accessories. As a demonstrator, I can no longer demonstrate this merchandise. So some of the other demos in my downline and I are getting together to offer them to you at a great discount - about 40% off. We have more than 400 sets to sell, so come and check us out; we will be between the concession stand and the ball field.
If you are interested in selling some of your retired sets, please email me.

Buttons & Fibers & Bows, Oh My!
Featured Technique
This came to my head as a class idea when I ogled all the ribbon in last year's catalog - now I'm doubly excited.
Just as I always stamp on my envelopes to make them special, I almost always add embellishments, in the form of ribbon, brads, buttons and more, to my cards and invitations. Here are some tips for working with these items:
- Use sticky strip to adhere ribbon to a card front, it even seals the edges so they don't unravel.
- Tie Linen Thread (or coordinating embroidery floss) through the button holes, then stick to the card with a mini glue dot - no needle required.
- Fancy Fibers can be dyed to match your card stock exactly. Put 2-3 drops of classic reinker and a teaspoon of water in a ziplock baggie. Mix together by mushing around, drop in about a yard of fiber, and mush some more. Pull it our, let it dry, and tie it on! (This also works with Canvas Tape and Grosgrain ribbon.)
