Lovely as a Tree

 This was one of the very first stamp sets I bought - 10 years ago!! I keep thinking it's going to retire but it's still a very popular set! .I still like to pull it out and  use it.  It can be used for every season and with so many different techniques. 

And speaking of stamps that are going to retire - every year I hold a "Which Stamps Are Going to Retire?" Contest.  Send me a list of ten stamps you think are going to retire.  The person with the most correct number will win a $30 gift certicficate to spend when the new catalog comes out!  Here are the rules:

• Send me your list by e-mail to susan@la-croix.net by 11:00 pm (EDT) on April 13th.
• Hostess Only sets and the Ronald McDonald Set (Turtle & Co.) cannot be used as guesses since all of these sets will retire!
• If there is more than one person with the most correct, the person who submitted their guesses first will win!
• Contest is only in the United States (sorry!)

Supplies:  Lovely as a Tree and Family Reunion stamp sets; Always Artichoke, Cake Crumb & Very Vanilla card stock; Always Artichoke, Pear Pizzazz, Lucky Limeade and Cake Crumb markers (Thumping Technique used on tree); Always Artichoke seam binding.
