It's that time of year again...

As I've mentioned previously, I'll be heading to Texas next week for Close To My Heart's Annual Convention.  I'll be arriving on Tuesday, even though the General Session doesn't start until Thursday.  One of the most anticipated events on Thursday will be the release of the new Fall/Winter 2012 Idea Book.  At lunch, you will see women sitting anywhere and everywhere, Oooo-ing and Aaaah-ing over all of the new products and new art ideas...and maybe eating. :)  

With the incoming of new product is the retiring of some older products. Without exception, there is always some things that go that make me a little sad.  Maybe you can relate.  But all I have to do to feel better is think about all the new things I want. :)

Well, just like last January, I've put together a slide show that shows all of the retired items....to this point.  Close To My Heart has already informed consultants that the following items will retiring.  However, these are not the only items retiring.  I won't know until the release of the new Idea Book what else is being retired, but the bulk will likely be accessories and stamps.  Once I get the list compiled, I will post it here and add it to the slide show.  

This delay may be a good thing, as it will give you a little time to stock up on some of these first wave of items, a week or two before the next wave.  Remember, that this month, when you purchase $75 (regular price items), you will get a "Perfect Pair" for FREE!  Even though these items are being retired, they are not discounted, so they DO qualify towards the $75 requirement. You can read more out about that here.
