    Is it possible to strip a project of a Creative Commons license as long as your are the licensee? I've read the complete license and I wasn't very sure on exact specifications for license termination. The reason I'm asking this is because I licensed one of my projects under a Creative Commons license, but now I no longer want it to be distributed.

    You can, but it wont retrospectively effect the license you have attributed to it, only subsequent publications. Effectively, the version or edition that is licensed under a Creative Commons license will continue to maintain that licence until the Copyright of the work has expired.
