Stampin’ Up! Artistic Leaves Branching Out

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Do you have any fun plans in the works? I’ll be at work all day today and tomorrow we will be hosting our August Online Technique Class. Tara and I are having so much fun with these classes and we invited Nicole in this month to present a couple cards.

I used all different products for today’s card along with a favorite technique of mine. I got the idea of putting this one together from Mary Deatherage’s card that you can see Here. There’s a sneak peek at dies coming in September, some annual catalog DSP and an Online Exclusive stamp set. I love how you can mix and match all of Stampin’ Up!’s products.  If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Triple Time

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re already halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend.

I was super excited to be asked to be a Featured Stamper for The Color Throwdown Challenge #759 today. Here’s my card for the challenge.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set and Distressed Gold Specialty Paper for my card today. I did the Triple Time Technique for my card with the challenge colors. Would you like to see a quick video on how I made this card? You can see it Here on my Instagram reels.

Here are the colors I was given to work with for my card.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Versamark Ink on the top of the smallest panel of Very Vanilla. I sprinkled it with Gold Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 3 panels of Very Vanilla together lightly using a small amount of Stampin’ Seal and patting it on my pants, so it wasn’t super sticky. I randomly stamped the leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red Inks. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink over the coordinating leaf images. I randomly stamped the splatter image from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink around the leaves. I adhered the 2 smaller stamped panels of Very Vanilla to coordinating Cherry Cobbler mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the larger card front panel, lining up the leaves, using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of Gold & Very Vanilla 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon around the layered panels and tied a bow. I adhered the layered card front to the Cherry Cobbler card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut 2 of the small oak leaves using the Autumn Leaves Dies from a panel of Distressed Gold Paper. I adhered the leaves to the card front just under the bow using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I stamped the leaf images from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red Inks on the sides of the panel. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink over the coordinating stamped leaves. I stamped the splatter image from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Pecan pie Ink around the leaves. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat then to the inside of the Cherry Cobbler card base.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I randomly stamped the leaf images from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red Inks on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink over the coordinating stamped leaves. I stamped the splatter image from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink around the leaves.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Hello 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Triple Time Stamping

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. I hope your weekend is going well. By the time you read this hopefully I’ll be a few batches in on my baking.

Last week was my Stamp Camp Card Class and I decided to do a little technique with the ladies, one of my favorites to be exact. We did the Triple Time Stamping Technique. Today’s card is the one that we made, and I believe all the ladies loved it. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Cling Stamp Set from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by lightly adhering the 2 smaller panels of Basic White cardstock to the larger panel using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal. You don’t want to add a lot because you really don’t want it to stick permanently. I put the seal on the back and blot it on my pants to get most of the stickiness off. I stamped the sentiment from the Nature’s Prints stamp set first in Gray Granite Ink on the smallest panel. I then randomly stamped the foliage image around the panel in Gray Granite, Orchid Oasis and Soft Succulent Inks. I stamped the splotch image from the Nature’s Prints stamp set in Pale Papaya Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, around the foliage images.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I took the Basic White panels apart and adhered the smaller panels to Orchid Oasis mats. I adhered the layered panels to the Basic White panel using Stampin’ Seal, making sure the images matched up.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of Orchid Oasis 1/8″ Woven Metallic Ribbon around the layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the card front panel to an Orchid Oasis card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Opal Rounds to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Nature’s Prints stamp set in Gray Granite Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the images from the Nature’s Prints stamp set around the panel in Gray Granite, Orchid Oasis, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Inks. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Gray Granite mat then to the inside of the Orchid Oasis card base.

Stampin' Up! Nature's Prints 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the images from the Nature’s Prints stamp set on the envelope front and flap in Gray Granite, Orchid Oasis, Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent Inke.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product (excluding cardstock) up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Triple Time

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have something fun planned or maybe relaxing is the plan. It’s supposed to be a beautiful weekend here in NJ. I’m hoping to get in a walk or 2 with Coraline to get some of her energy out. Tomorrow, I get to visit my team leader Amy for our meeting and see her dog, Ginny. Ginny always knows I’m coming, and I bring her some kind of treat from the bakery.

Today’s card I used a set from the Annual Catalog doing one of my favorite techniques. This card used Stamps, Ink and Paper all layered together. I added a couple embellishment to dress it up a bit. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Forever Fern Cling Stamp Set for my Triple Time card today.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the smallest panel of Basic White cardstock. I took the 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhered them together using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I randomly stamped the leaf and splatter images from the Forever Fern stamp set in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry Inks on the layered panels.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the 2 smaller stamped panels to Rich Razzleberry mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the larger Basic White panel to the Rich Razzleberry card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the other 2 panels to the card front matching up the leaf images. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Forever Fern stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf and splatter images from the Forever Fern stamp set in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry Inks on the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mossy Meadow mat and then to the inside of the Rich Razzleberry card base.

Stampin' Up! Forever Fern Triple Time 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf images from the Forever Fern stamp set on the envelope front and flap the same as I did for the card.

Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Daffodils

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s week going? We’re halfway through and on the downhill to the weekend.

Today’s card used some more of the Sale-a-bration items that are available only until Monday February 28th for free. My card has very little stamping today, it’s all about the DSP. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set along the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by cutting the center of a panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies. I then cut the center out of the smaller panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using the 5th largest Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I adhered the largest panel of Daffodil Afternoon DSP to a Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the other 2 panels of Daffodil Afternoon DSP to Bumblebee mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the medium layered panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Windowpane Check Ribbon around the layered panels and tied a bow.

I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to either side of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and the to the inside of the Bumblebee card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Paper Pumpkin Price Increases Beginning March 1

On March 1, 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price for both month-to-month orders and prepaid subscriptions. Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin kits–including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit.

Here are the details:

You will begin to see the price change on paper pumpkin.com

beginning February 11, with the start of the March subscription period.

Shipping added based on order total at time of check out. 

Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required. 

Prices for past kits and refills released before March 1, 2022 will remain unchanged.

Let me know if you have any questions about the price changes.  ***If you purchase Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Kits during February, you’ll save a few $$ and possibly earn some free Sale-a-bration items too!

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Dahlias Birthday Triple Time Card

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend, I hope you have something fun planned.

I have my alternative version of the Triple Time Card for you today that I made on Wednesday. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Delicate Dahlias Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Host In Your Words Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by taking 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhering them together with the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal just to hold them in place while stamping. I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on the smallest Basic White panel. I then randomly stamped the 3 images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Just Jade Ink on the layered panels. I embossed all 3 panels using my Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder.

I gently took the panels apart and adhered the smallest and middle Basic White panels to Just Jade mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the middle panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue being sure to match up the flower and leaf images.

I adhered the layered panel to the large Basic White Stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, making sure to match up the flowers and leaf images. I colored a length of the new White 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon using my Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Markers. I wrapped the ribbon around the layered card front and tied a bow. I adhered the layered card front to a Just Jade card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink, stamped off once, over the sentiment. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink, stamped off twice, by the dahlia image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Bumblebee mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the envelope flap. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and the envelope flap. I stamped the small flower image from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope front.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Delicate Dahlias Birthday

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. We’re back to being really hot here again after our 3 days straight of rain.

I have a Triple Time Card for you today. I love doing this design and don’t do it often enough. I’ve made my card using only Stamps, Ink and Paper. Even though it’s an easy card there are lots of layers. I’ve made a similar card stepped up a bit, Watch for my stepped up version of this card on Saturday. See what extras I added. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Delicate Dahlias Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Host In Your Words Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

My colors are from the Inspire. Create Challenge #097.

I started by taking 3 panels of Basic White cardstock and lightly adhering them together with the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal just to hold them in place while stamping. I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink in the center of the smallest Basic White panel. I then randomly stamped the 3 images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Just Jade Ink on the layered panels.

I gently took the panels apart and adhered the smallest and middle Basic White panels to Night of Navy mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the smallest layered panel to the middle panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue being sure to match up the flower and leaf images.

I adhered the layered panel to the large Basic White Stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, making sure to match up the flowers and leaf images. I adhered the layered panel to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the In Your Words SAB Host stamp set in Night of Navy Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the side of the panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large dahlia image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Bumblebee Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Delicate Dahlias SAB stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and the envelope flap. I stamped the small flower image from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Color and Contour Triple Time

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? With warmer weather coming hopefully everyone will start to be doing some fun things on the weekends.

I have a triple time card for you today using another new set and the new In-Colors from the new 2021-2020 Annual Catalog. I’ve been using the dies a lot that go with this bundle, now I thought I’d use the stamp set. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Color & Contour Photopolymer Stamp Set for my triple time stamp card. I used 4 of the 5 new 2021-2023 In-Colors for my stamping today.

I started by adhering the 3 Basic White panels together with the tiniest amount of Stampin’ Seal so that i could easily take them apart after stamping on them.

I first stamped the sentiment from the Color & Contour stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the smallest panel. I stamped the outline flower image from the Color & Contour stamp set in Fresh Freesia and Pale Papaya Inks randomly around the panels. I then stamped the outline leaf image from the Color & Contour stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink around the flowers. I took the panels apart and adhered the smallest and middle panels to Soft Succulent mats using Stampin’ Seal. I then adhered the matted panels together, making sure to match up the stamped images, using Stampin’ Seal.

I wrapped a piece of the 3/8″ Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon around the stamped and matted panels and tied a small bow. I adhered the layers to a Soft Succulent card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happy Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the outlined flower image from the Color & Contour stamp set on the panel in Fresh Freesia and Pale Papaya Inks and the leaf image in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I randomly stamped the outlined flower image from the Color & Contour stamp set in Fresh Freesia and Pale Papaya Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the leaf image from the Color & Contour stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink around the flower images.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Boughs Triple Time

Good Monday morning my fellow stampers.  How was everyone’s weekend?  Hope you had nice weather and were able to do something fun.  I was able to go out for a nice long walk yesterday, it was absolutely beautiful.  I believe  it was only in the mid to upper 70’s.  Another week starting and I hope it’s a productive one for you.  I have to work today and tomorrow since it’s the last day of the month and the 1st.  Seems like the 1st comes around really fast lately.

I have a triple time stamping card for you today, but I changed the layout a bit.  Here’s my card for today.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Boughs Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink on the smallest Whisper White panel.  I immediately sprinkled it with my Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool.

I lined up the Whisper White panels the way I wanted them and put a tiny amount of adhesive just to hold them from moving.  I stamped the boughs from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink around the panels.  I then stamped the pinecone image from the Peaceful Boughs around the panels in Soft Suede Ink.

I adhered the largest Whisper White panel to a Shaded Spruce card base using Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the other 2 Whisper White panels to Shaded Spruce mats using Stampin’ Seal.  Lining up the boughs, I adhered the square panel to the card front then the rectangle panel on top of the square using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I added a few Gilded Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Soft Suede Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel.  I stamped the boughs from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink, stamping off twice, on the top of the panel hanging down over the sentiment.  I stamped the splatter image, (or snowflake, not sure what it is), from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off twice, around the boughs.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Soft Suede mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Shaded Spruce card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the pine boughs from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on the envelope front and flap.  I stamped the splatter image from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set in Soft Suede Ink around the pine boughs.  I stamped a couple pine cones from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set on the envelope flap.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I hope you liked my card and will try it. Happy Stamping!!

There’s so much to love about fall—some love the haunts of Halloween, many love the time to give thanks, and others love the changing colors and cooler temperatures. Whatever you love most about fall, September’s kit has everything you need to celebrate the season your way! Between a multi-occasion stamp set and enough supplies to design 20 cracker box treat packages, you can create custom fall crafts to celebrate Halloween, Thanksgiving, pumpkins, and leaves. Whether you make them all the same or mix ‘n’ match your crafts, there’s something for everyone in this kit!

I’m cleaning my shelves and drawers out to make room for lots of new goodie.  I have my list right HERE and I’m trying to keep it up to date.   Check it out and let me know if there is anything you’d like to get.  If you are looking for something and don’t see it on the list, drop me a line and I will look through my stash to see if I missed it.  I have lots of older DSP too that I don’t have listed if there is any that you are looking for.
