Hugs & Healing Card is on the Retired List. Now What?

What do you do with your retired bundles? In the past, I had been adding cubes to my unit to store the plastic stamp cases, but the last time I went to place an order, I discovered the cubes had been discontinued. Was it time to start selling my retired sets?

I began sorting and organizing my older stamps. My spreadsheet was also updated as I took photos for an online product release, which has been scheduled to occur in October 2025. It was time to downsize.

How did I decide which stamps, dies, and embossing folders to keep, sell, or donate?

Bundles with stamps, punches, or die cuts were considered keepers.
I kept products with a Paper Sleeve of coordinating Designer Series Paper (DSP).
"Never been used" was a priority for keeping.
Many of the older green-labeled Stampin' Up! products were placed in the downsize pile to sell or donate.
Lastly, I compared the "sold" prices listed online. Any product priced under $10 was donated or sold as part of a bundle.

Stampin' Up! will be changing to Stamp & Die Organizers. Read more here. For a while, I had been thinking of switching to envelope enclosers; therefore, I was pleased with the change. I've always stored my stamp cases alphabetically, but as my "collection" grew, I felt themes would be easier.

I am excited for the new storage! Follow and watch my blog posts for further updates.

Remember to follow the button link for a free measurement recipe to create the Hugs & Healing card. Hopefully, you purchased this stamp when it was available or you may have another stamp that would work.

Take care,

Linda Ann
