Destash Sale!

October 26, 2022

UPDATE-BOXES ARE SOLD OUT!!
So sorry if you were hoping to get one before they sold out. The response is always way more than expected. I will for sure have more in the future, so stay tuned! Thanks again for your support!



Hi there! I’m finally getting around to posting my destash sale. You wouldn’t believe how long these boxes have been sitting in my dining room collecting new and gently used stamps, dies, stencils, embossing folders and more.

Last time I did something like this. I gave the boxes away for free and only charged for shipping. This time I decided to ask $100 per box(plus shipping) and the money will go to my daughter, Bailey, who is saving up to study abroad. She will do all the work to package and lovingly ship these boxes to you. These are medium flat rate boxes and contain well over $600 of products. There is a mixture of my favorite and most used brands included ranging from Simon Says Stamp, My Favorite Things, Honey Bee Stamps, Pinkfresh Studio and more.

This will be a first come, first serve kind of deal. There are 24 boxes so far, unless I fill more up in the next few days, but I will just send these to the first ones who respond. The boxes are not light so I’m honestly not even sure how to handle an international sale. If you are international and are extremely interested, we can work something out if it isn’t too expensive.

To claim a box please email me at:
lbassen@yahoo.com

I will be sure to throw in a card of mine as well😊
Thank you so much for your support!
