Once a year, they discontinue items, and this is the time. I thought I had everything I wanted that was older, but I found some things being clearanced that I had never noticed before. Some of their stamps are beautiful, some are cute. They have matching dies, as well as some unique dies for crafting. They have papers that match their stamp sets. I discovered them at convention years ago, and they have been my favorite company now for awhile. I am not affiliated with them in any way. I just love their designs. This is a good time to get their discontinued items at a discount, so I am just passing the info along. Here is a link to their sale items: Heartfelt Creations discontinued stamps, dies, papers, etc. |

I regularly get their emails. I haven't shopped in a while though because I'm waiting on my own craft room.

You have more will power than I do. I would have loved a craft room, but the lack of one didn't inhibit my buying. I scrapped and collected tools and supplies despite no craft room for 20 years. Add ten years more to that for collecting stamps. Space constraints are one reason I unmounted all my wood mounted stamps. I am a little surprised there are so few Heartfelt Creations fans. Considering how busy their booth can be at conventions, I expected more interest. Their stamps are not cheap, but they are a high quality, and I just like a lot of their designs. They seem slightly thick for the Tim Holtz platform, but they work well in it despite their thickness. |

I love their cards. I always take their classes at the Expo. I do wish they would not do square cards.

One was using the Petunia stamps, the other was the Lush Lilac. I did end up with a couple of square cards out of the two classes. They were bigger and will cost a little more to mail, but I don't mind that. I prefer rectangle cards over square cards, but mainly due to postage costs. |

Yes, the postage and having to go to the post office is why I don't like them. 😀

My goal is to have the room done by Christmas. Another room has to be redone completely, including walls and ceiling first. |

eastcoastpea, I hope your craft room gets finished on schedule.
I made do for a lot of years with no craft room, but it is SO much nicer having one!

I don't know how big a square you mean - if it's not too big, you can put your square card in a rectangular envelope.

I don't know how big a square you mean - if it's not too big, you can put your square card in a rectangular envelope. Their square cards are fairly big. They are typically 6x6 inches. I guess they could fit in an envelope for 6x8 cards or wedding invites. Another option, if you just want to use the matching square envelope, is to look up the postage online based on size and shape, although I'm not sure if it gives info on postage for thicker, lumpy cards (they definitely cost extra, too). I have looked up the dimensions online and appropriate postage, and I used a food digital scale to determine weight. I usually have some stamps on hand, although it can mean paying more for postage if I just use two current stamps. It's still cheaper than the gas to the post office. |

FYI for card makers: it's not just the shape.
I took in 3 standard sized but hand made cards to the post office today.
Because they were slightly thicker than a store bought card, they charged me 71 cents per card. They weren't that thick, either.
