Depressed......

Each year as with many other companies items are retired and never sold again.  Stampin' Up is no different.  Each year, I look forward to the retiring list.....order those few sets that I must have before they disappear and then anxiously look forward to the new catalogue to come out a month later.

This year it was different......

This year I'm a demonstrator......

This year the Retiring List had me in a panic........

Today Some MANY of my FAVORITE STAMPS are going away.......

Why is this year different now that I'm a demonstrator??  Well if you are trying to sell a product you want to demonstrate with products your customers can actually buy from the current catalogue.  So when stamps are retired I can't use them in classes or anything else with customers.  And I believe there are some other restrictions that I have to clarify before I fly off the handle about that one!!

I have a feeling that there will be a stamping frenzy tonight with all my favorite stamps!  =)

For now I'm going to leave you with some images using some of my favorite sets that are retiring.....
