The stamp set and punch are retired, along with the Sweet Sorbet color.

Thanks, Lisa, for starting this thread! I hope I will have a chance to play along soon!

I have a card using a very old Hero Arts set: https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/g...&ppuser=301308

Used a whole bunch of older products on this one....

I have another card using older supplies. The mail image came from Diane in 2023 but the added greetings are from a set from The Stamps of Life that is on their retirement list.

Sharing a card made using some pewter shell brads from my stash. I had to dig to find them. LOL https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/g...00&ppuser=2910

I am thrilled to continue my journey to use up items in my tote. I really push myself to try to use them and while it does get smaller, I have items that do get added to it. I try to quickly use the newly added items too but oh it is a chore. So, I just keep going.

Here is my first card for 2025. I used 2 wood embellishments from my tote:
