Any surprises in retirees?
I was surprised to see Unfrogettable and Noble Deer. I know ND has been around a long time but it's such a favorite.

I had a feeling Unfrogettable would be on there, only because I've put off buying it for so long. I guess it's now or never!! LOL!!

I posted on another thread too. What about Peaceful Wishes? That was soooo popular I'm suprised to see it go.
Also, I was suprised that A Tree for All Seasons wasn't on the list. Think that's been around forever and you hardly ever see cards with it....

I'm surprised Crab and Co. was not retired. It seems very "trendy" but still cute and is on my "want someday" list. I'm very suprised Peaceful Wishes and The Snowflake Spot are retiring. They are classics.

retiring?
Oh, rats! Peaceful wishes is retiring? I have talked myself out of that one at least three times! I tell myself that I have a pine branch, I have a berry branch thingie, but I really like that swoopy Peaceful wishes word stamp. How do you access the retiring list?

The list is on the SU Website under Specials.
I don't think any of them really surprise me. I have put off ordering Give Thanks several times so I am going to get it before it goes. I am anxious to see what will be replacing the retirees, though!

I just hope that Noble Deer isn't replaced with some cartoony images like Fly Fisherman. I have kept all the masculine sets that SU had that I liked for fishing, golf and hunting.. but would like something new. . I hate to see Touch of Nature go.. and am so glad to see Wild Rose on the list so now I can finally offload it!

Glad to see a lot of them go, only a few I will be sad to see go. Peaceful Wishes, Artfully Asian, and Touch of Nature are favourites. Hopefully they will be bringing in some new classics to replace them.

I was surprised to see French Flair and Carte Postale retire. Those are so beautiful. I love French Flair but now I have to decided whether or not I can live without Carte Postale!:confused:

The Accessories Retired List will be out on the 21st.. that is the list would include punches if they are to be retired.. along with wheels.

I was personally shocked by Flannel Plaid and Peaceful Wishes! I mean, I have them, and love them, but I thought they were popular enough to stick around for a while longer.

I wasn't too surprised, but there are a lot I want to get before they are gone. Give Thanks, Peaceful Wishes, Artfully Asian. (To name a few!) __________________ Wendy

Me too!!! I think they are both so very versitile! If you guys don't have em, ya gotta get em.... especially flannel plaid, it just make the card so warm and soft looking.
I was surprised to see Wild Rose go since Shelli demo'd it on a chair with paint recently.
I was surprised NOT to see Loads of Love go. It's done it's time. |

of the sets that remain, itty bitty backgrounds is the oldest set [released as a hostess set in 97-98] but a tree for all seasons is the SECOND oldest, released in 00-01 as a hostess set.
in case anyone is interested, lovely as a tree is the third oldest, released in 01-02. |
