Yep…that’s me. I have lots of retired stuff. I accumulated all that stuff because I often did not sell stamp sets and paper and ink and Big Shot items and ribbon and embellishments and tools and so on and so forth when they retired, because I always thought I might NEED them at some point in the future. I have tons of sets, many of which were never used. I would see an adorable card someone created and I just HAD to buy the set to make it. You know what I mean. But life would get in the way, the set would never be inked up, and the card was never made. I am not proud of the fact, and it is quite embarrassing. Why did I feel the need to buy every little thing just because Stampin’ Up! makes the cutest stamps and paper? I was hesitant to air my addiction on my blog, but I have to clear these things out. I really must sell them. We are getting ready to sell our house, hopefully this fall, and I have to de-clutter. Plus, I encountered some pretty hefty vet bills recently. So I would love to have my stuff become your stuff.
I have consolidated all of the retired items I currently have for sale into one easy document. Here is the link:

I am looking for the Diagonal Scoring plate from Stampin Up. Do you have one or any idea where I can find one??
Thank you!
Hi Ann,
I see you are purging, good for you. One thing I didn’t see on your list is Naturals Ivory paper – would you happen to have any in your stash? Please let me know if so and you are willing to part with it. Thank you!
Do you have this stamp or something similar?

Judge?! Never!! Ask my upline….I have a similar addiction!! It’s so hard and I’m trying to be better. I now try to use the set at least once if I have bought it!! I’m also trying harder not to hoard my DSP since it looks much prettier on a card instead of in an unopened package!!!
Do not feel bad. You are certainly not alone. In fact, you are the strong one because you are doing something about your overgrown stash of supplies. You are going to feel so good when you whittle down your supplies to a manageable amount of things that you love the most and will use. Now, one of these days I need to do the same thing myself.
Selling your house? Oh no! I am being nosy – still staying in the Burlington area? Your loss is my gain but I need to hold it down so I will E-mail you to make sure the envelopes are still available. I need them for my charity cards! So, this might be a 2 part purchase!
Gosh Ann, you put a ton of work into this sale. You give me hope that 1 day soon I will also do some major purging. Not having room is a real issue. Selling your home has to be tough. Thinking of you my friend and praying you are doing well.
You think we don’t understand this “addiction”? Hey, I have the same “problem.” So do many others. Couldn’t wait to see your list.
Ann, I’m surprised to read that you, who seem so grounded and sensible, have that (not shameful exactly but) addictive and expensive habit of *needing* to have every stamp set that has caught your eye because of a pretty face–no, no, not face–pretty card. I’m even more surprised that you, such a prolific cardmaker, actually have non-inked sets gathering dust (like me, I’m sad to say). Bravo to you for coming clean and taking steps to rectify the situation. I can say with certainty that it’s only because you don’t ship to Canada that I’m saved from acquiring many of your goodies. Good luck with decluttering.
Oh Ann I would never judge you on this subject or any other subject, especially when I look at my own stash. The only difference between you and me at this point, is I don’t have a trigger that says – “declutter.” I pray that you are able to sell all that you need to, and get just enough to take care of those vet bills for your babies, and get a fair market value for your home. Any chance you might move to Texas?
So Jan, I live in Cypress Tx. Any chance u live close? Would love to meet you, if u do. I also might have some older items for de-cluttering.
